The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

If not for herself, Karen wouldn't have to go through this ordeal!

At home, he could hardly bring himself to raise his voice, yet now, after someone had bullied him and even targeted his child, Jeffrey just couldn't stand it any longer.

"Honey, rest assured, I won't let Paige get away with this!"

He had already let Paige off once before, at Karen's pleading, which only led to today's trouble.

"Going after Paige is one thing, but leave the kid out of it," Karen, now a mother herself, naturally felt compassion for the little girl. "If Paige hadn't set her on us, she wouldn't have come after me. She's still so young, she doesn't understand." Jeffrey stroked her hair, holding her even tighter, "You're just too kind."

"Jeffrey... our child, they're really okay? Nothing's wrong?"

He hadn't said anything on his own, and Karen didn't dare ask too closely.

Since there was bleeding, she knew it couldn't be good.

But she was so scared...

"Don't worry, I'll always be by your side."

Jeffrey's evasion was answer enough.
