The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Chapter 1091

Before everything was resolved, he wouldn't leave.

Dorothy remained silent, just watching him. As she watched, a sudden smile appeared on her face.

"Everett, do you know? You were always so gentle that | mistook you for someone kind and considerate... | even ot who you

really are," she said, tugging at her lips. "How could | et? You're a businessman, with power, prestige, and influence. After you

stopped loving me, what right did | have to negotiate with you?"

She didn't even need to doubt Everett's words. He had said it himself. As long as he disagreed, the kids wouldn't be leaving

Eldorria City, let alone the country. Yes! Everett certainly had that power.

The problem was with herself. She had otten how powerful Everett's influence was, thinking he would respect her decisions as

he used to, even if she was being unreasonable, even if she had abandoned him over and over again.

"You..." Everett's lips moved, but harsh words were all he could muster, "It's good you understand."

"What are you planning then? To imprisonif | insist on taking the kids with me?"

Dorothy laughed, "Although | don't know your purpose, lettell you, you won't manipulate me! I'll take the kids. If you disagree,

then I'll just have to do it by force."

"You wouldn't dare!"

"Watch me."

Their eyes locked, and in hers, Everett saw not only disappointment but determination. That was what Everett feared the most.

"Dorothy, I've loved you. | don't want things to be this way."

"lI don't want it either. So, after we break up, let's not linger on this. I'll take the kids, and you won't have to think about us

anymore."

She wanted a clean break. Once they were separated, she wouldn't cling on, nor did she want to leave anything behind for him to

ponder.

"Then wait for Abigail and Langston toe back, and ask them if they want to leave."

That was Everett's last resort. He couldn't really confront Dorothy head-on! He couldn't bear it.

"What do you mean?"

"So, leaving them behind to watch you marry Quincy and bring them a stepmother is considering their feelings?"

She knew she wasn't the ideal mother, so the kids might prefer their father, Everett. Since he suggested respecting the children's

wishes, indeed, she should ask.

"If Abigail and Langston choose to stay, you'll still leave?"

"Yes, I'll leave."

"Do you have anything else? If not, don't show up in front ofagain."

But he didn't. Other than wanting the kids and forcing her not to leave, he said nothing more.
