The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

"So, you poisoned Everett Lopez too."

That statement wasn't a question. It was a conclusion.

Quincy's eyes flickered with a hint of guilt, "That's none of your business. You don't need to know!"

Lane shrugged, "True, I'm not exactly dying of curiosity about Everett's ordeal. But... this poison of yours, if the antidote isn't taken regularly, it really results in death? Guaranteed?" She nodded with certainty.

"Yes, it leads to the failure of all vital organs, culminating in death."

"Wow..." Lane smacked his lips, "You're pretty ruthless, giving Everett that kind of poison. You're not afraid he'll actually die on you?"

"As long as I'm by his side, he won't die!"

Lane nodded, "Fair enough! How about this, I want that temporary antidote of yours, but I can only offer you half the price, that's ten million." "You're haggling over something like this?"

"Ten million isn't chump change." Lane finished his cigarette, stomped it out on the ground, "Take it or leave it. I have the permanent cure anyway." He turned to leave.
