The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Despise Everett?

Lane wasn't born yesterday!

"Out with it! Who sent you?!"

"I came on my own."

No sooner had he spoken than Lane, gripping the knife, tightened his hold, and a thin line of blood appeared on the man's neck.

Fortunately, the wound wasn't deep, because Lane couldn't afford a murder scene here! He needed to stay under the radar, to avoid stirring the pot.

"Still playing tough? Do you believe I could end you right here?"

The man just smirked, showing no fear, "Go ahead! I came alone, fully prepared to face death! As long as you promise me one thing that Everett doesn't get to live-I don't care if I die!"

Seeing his genuine fearlessness, Lane started to believe him, at least a little.
