The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

"You had a chance, Mr. Lopez was head over heels for you! But you just had to push it until things got ugly, didn't you? Until Mr. Lopez lost his mother before you decided enough was enough!" In Quincy's eyes, this was the direct cause of their relationship's downfall.

Dorothy naturally followed her lead, "But I regret it, and he still won't forgive me!"

"Opportunities come once in a lifetime, and Mr. Lopez, such a catch, do you think he'd wait forever?"

Dorothy was worried that if Everett suddenly came back and Quincy saw him, it would be super awkward!

She had to get rid of her, and fast.

"Rub it in? You wish! I had no need for that!" Quincy scoffed, "I thought Mr. Lopez might be staying here, that's the only reason I came! Now, I've got no interest in seeing you."

Quincy was practically saying she didn't deem Dorothy worthy of her presence!
