The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

The diner owner caught the tender moment between Dorothy and Everett and gave Dorothy a conspiratorial wink. "Dorothy, you've struck gold, haven't you? Finding a man who's truly devoted to you in this lifetime." "Yeah, I guess I've struck gold."

Who wouldn't feel blessed to have someone like Everett by their side?

"Enjoy your meal, lovebirds. I'll go attend to the other customers!"

The diner owner quickly went back to her bustling establishment.

Dorothy glanced around, noticing the crowd. "It's off-peak hours, yet it's so busy. Looks like Havenbrook City's flavors are really hitting it off with the folks in Eldorria City."

"Yeah, the food from Havenbrook City is delicious."
