The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

"Is this Martin from Feather-Tech Company?"

"Oh..."

Dorothy noticed his pensive look and quickly snapped back, holding her ear as a reminder, "Don't start with your petty grudges again! It was just some polite chit-chat during the negotiations. Come on, at my age, who would be eyeing me?" "How did Abigail hear about it?"

"She just happened to visit me at Trust-E Investments to deliver some paintings."

Lately, she had taken a liking to landscape art, so she had her daughter paint a few pieces to hang in her office.

Everett didn't say anything, but his mind was clearly elsewhere.

When Dorothy took out the clothes, he immediately took them from her hands and laid them out on the table.

Even after all these years, the Bay Residence had never hired a maid; they always found time to do the chores themselves. Everett's suit and shirt were always ironed by Dorothy herself.

No matter how busy she was, she always made time to ensure he had neatly pressed clothes to wear every day.

"Hey, speaking of which! I noticed this morning you changed the shareholder for our branch in Anglonia?"

"Yeah." Everett folded the ironed clothes and stored them in the closet.

Dorothy was quick to catch on.

"Changed it to Langston's name?"

"Mhm."

"Everett! I've told you, let's not meddle in Langston and Felicity's business and force the kids into making choices! Why won't you listen?" Everett spread his hands, innocence written all over his face.

"I haven't done anything! It's my company, transferring it to my own son. What could Jeffrey possibly find wrong with that?"

"...But Felicity works at that company! It's obvious what you're up to."

"I never intended to hide it." He wrapped an arm around his wife's waist with a smirk, "Our Langston, no matter where he works, it's still work, right? It just so happens that he's needed there! And if the branch's profits go up and he wins over his lady, it's killing two birds with one stone!"

How perfect!

Dorothy sighed in resignation, "You better hope Felicity forgives your son."

"That Esther situation has been handled, now it's just about winning over Felicity."

"What did you do to Esther?"

Everett waved his hand dismissively, "Let's not worry about that."

After all, it was someone who had brought it upon themselves. No helping it.

...

"Mr. Lopez, checked, and the house at the address you gave is owned by a Chinese person, last name Hoffman. And after contacting them, they said the house isn't for sale."

Hoffman?

At that moment, Miles narrowed his eyes, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the hotel, exhaling sharply.

He knew it, this Calvin must come from a notable background too. Otherwise, any regular person, upon learning about Felicity's heritage, would have shown at least some surprise. But Calvin didn't.

The early bird catches the worm, Calvin's plan was loud and clear!

Miles suddenly felt a chill.

Had it not been for Aunt Karen deceitfully coaxing Felicity back this trip, Felicity and Calvin... There might have actually been something between them.

Just the thought of Felicity lying shyly in another man's arms made it hard for him to breathe!

And now she was living in Calvin's house? This wouldn't do.

After much thought, the only person who could help him now was Aunt Karen!

No matter what he said now, Felicity wouldn't listen.

He waited, calculating the time difference, until it was noon back home before making the call.

"Aunt Karen, there's something I need to ask of you..."

"To get Felicity not to break up with you, right? Sigh, I've tried persuading her, but to no avail." Karen had also been fretting over this matter, "The main issue is... she's truly disappointed this time."
