The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Here's the revised translation based on the provided original text:

What's with Everett, what's with Dorothy, they were just names of patients to her once upon a time! Had it not been for the Caldwell family cornering her, why would she ever tremble with fear, linking her fate with a woman already frail in health?

"I just don't get it, what's so bad about marrying Everett? Do you have any idea how many women wish for that chance but never get it?" Ronin could never understand his daughter. You'd think, coming from a family as illustrious as the Lopezes, anyone would jump at the opportunity. How come this stroke of luck lands on his daughter, and it was Jonathan himself who brought it up, yet she's reluctant! "It's not about good or bad, he doesn't love me!"

"How old are you? All this talk about love, let me tell you, in this world, nothing's more important than money! With power and status, everything else is trivial."

Listening to her father, Quincy felt a profound sadness for him, for her mother, and more so for herself, being used as a pawn in this family.

"Arguing about this now is pointless. If you want to keep the Lopez family within your grip, if you want to cling to that high branch, you'll have to help me with this," Quincy stated coldly. "Otherwise, if this blows up or if I can't keep Everett under control, do you think the Caldwells can wash their hands of it?"

Ronin fell silent. Because he didn't need to think hard to know the answer. Quincy was his daughter, and after gaining control over Everett, her first move was securing an investment for the Caldwell family. Denying it would be futile, no one would believe him.

"You! Why didn't you discuss such a thing with me?"

Ronin was terrified just hearing about it. He never imagined his seemingly indifferent daughter could pull off something so... sinister. That was poisoning, for heaven's sake, it could've killed someone! "How could I discuss it? Back then, all you wanted was for me to marry into the Lopez family! Did you even listen when I tried to talk to you?"Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Back then, Quincy had no feelings

for Everett, envying Dorothy for having a man who loved her was extent of her thoughts. But now..

the

things were different. Howevene

Quincy wouldn't share her change of heart towards Everett with her

father.

"But now, my relationship with Jonathan isn't as solid as before! After the last investment fiasco, we barely spoke. He might not even agree to help." "Anyway, I've laid it all out for you. I've been carrying this burden for so long, it's time you thought of a solution."

After hanging up the phone, Quincy

sat in the lab chair, holding her phone. All she hoped for now was for Everett to remember Dorothy was still the mother of their children, hoping his feelings wouldn't vanish so swiftly. But... men's affections are notoriously unreliable. She had some faith in Everett before, but now, no longer.

Glancing at her phone, then abruptly standing up, Quincy went over to the lab's shelves and grabbed a few test

tubes. These were the ingredet?

for the antidote. Fearing Everett might steal them, she never combined them, keeping them separate. If Everett fell into the trap, the poison transferring from Dorothy to him, she would then let Dorothy go.
