The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Kevin had finally caught on.

A simple "I don't know" seemed to be his get-out-of-jail-free card for just about anything.

How else was he supposed to help Mr. Lopez cover up for his little escapades? God forbid their stories didn't match up. That would spell disaster.

"Fair enough."

Dorothy probably didn't think too much into it.

After all, schmoozing was Everett's least favorite activity. If there was any chance to shove it off onto Jeffrey, he'd take it in a heartbeat!

So, the moment he wrapped up at the office, he'd be home.

"Is Ms. Sanchez worried Mr. Lopez is out there chasing skirts?" Kevin couldn't help but chuckle.

Dorothy waved the notion away, "Oh, I don't worry about that one bit. Everett's not that kind of guy. It's just... getting used to being a wife, you know? After years of flying solo, having a partner around is still something I'm adjusting to. But Everett... he gets upset if he thinks I don't care about him."

The man actually wanted to be kept in check!

If he came home late and she didn't ask where he'd been or what he was up to, he'd sulk.

Claiming she didn't care about him anymore. That he wasn't in her heart.

Kevin burst out laughing, "So Mr. Lopez is basically a big kid behind closed doors."
