The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Chapter 173
“You’m really pushing me into a comer here!
Her mother’s words sounded like a fairy tale to hel
Dorothy didn’t even know when her mother started measuring the solidity of relationships by money
The Lee Corporation wasnt just Everett’s; it’s the product of generations of the Lopez family’s hard work. They simply felt
impossible to transfer it into her name,
I’m just using this as an example to show you that no man will give up everything for you. They just talk a big game if you asked
Everett for all his possessions, he wouldn’t give them to you and he’d dump you in no time
“That’s because he would think I’m a greedy woman then Dorothy responded, feeling that any person would instantly lose their
good impression upon hearing such a inques!
That shouldn’t even be a cnteriont
To put it another way if she was Everett, she would also feel that the gil accepted him only because she wanted something in
return.
There is no such thing as being greedy or not. A man’s heart is where his money is Bella glared at her daughter sterly And stop
calling me greedy. If I wanted to use you for money I wouldnt have refused the money you got from a man to treat my illness
even if it meant my death What I’m saying is, I want you to see clearly the gap between you and Everett and how impossible it
is!”
“So no man can be trusted as you said I should just never get mamedor have a boyfriend in my whole life!
“That’s not what I’m saying” Bela suddenly changed her tone think that Kenneth is a good choice!
Dorothy was taken aback by her mother’s sudden mention of Kenneth
“We’re just friends” the said, started
“But Kenneth likes you” Bells, having been through it all could tell that Kenneth was serious about her daughter. If she had to
pick a son–in-law right now she’d rather trust Kenneth than anyone else.

Just thinking about the haughty way Event’s mother had come to her made Bella shudder. She could already imagine the
hardships her daughter would face if she married
A man might be able to protect her once or twice, but if his mother was always picking fights and bad mouthing her their
relationship wouldn’t last long.
With Everett as a CEC, there would be plenty of girls trying to seduce him. What would happen to her daughter then?
Compared to that, at least Kenneths parents had been polite and genuinely liked Dorothy when they met
“Mom, there’s no chance betninen Kenneth and me.”
“Then there’s even less chance between you and Everett, unless you wait until I’m dead”
‘Mom!‘
Tm going back to my hospital room. If you still believe in love, you don’t have to come anymore. Out of sight, out of mind. I don’t
want to see my daughter ending up like
ΠΗ
With that, Bella left her daughter behind and walked away, leaning on the wall for support.
Dorothy knew it would be hard to change her mother’s mind right away
She needed to think of another way. She couldn’t possibly break off her relationship with her mother because of Everett
Dorothy’s name had almost become taboo at the HQ of the Lopez Corporation
She was the only one who had been publicly fred on the groups official website and then had the decision reversed.
That was very unusual.
After all, for an investment department assistant to be personally ordered to be fired by the chairman was news in itse
But to have the decision reversed by the CCD
That was simply shocking Even a fool could guess what was going on.

During the lunch break, two female colleagues couldn’t help but gossip about it.
“Do you think Dorothy has some dirt on our CED
” would believe it if it was someone else, but M♬ Loper? I dont buy it. He’s like a glaciet never showing interest in women, and
he’s very careful and serious about his work I dont think he’d tum any dirt.” The faller woman thought for a moment, then leaned
in closer to her colleague and lowriedber mice. “But I have seen Dorothy She is quite
“Do you think Mr Lopez lacks beautiful women around him?”
Put it this way. Dr. Loper could here any woman be warted if he wished bal
