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

Chapter 1304

"Keh, is it all about the money?"

"What else could he possibly want from me?" Dorothy shot back, rolling her eyes. "Not everyone's like you, falling head over heels

for a twice-divorced woman with two kids in tow."

Lane's gaze darkened, and he finally spoke, "I need to handle something over there."

As soon as Lane left, Dorothy allowed her worried expression to surface.

She hoped Keh could get out of this mess...

She used to think he was level-headed, but facing someone like Lane seemed to throw all his caution to the wind.

Keh hadn't anticipated that the place where Lane hid the antidote would be under surveillance, with guards stationed around

it!

He had just discovered the location of the antidote and was about to turn around and inform Karen, thinking of asking Jeffrey to get

Everett toe and snatch it, when he was stopped in his tracks not a minute later!

Given Keh's limp, escaping was nearly impossible.

By the tLane arrived hurriedly, Keh was already tied up with ropes, unable to move!

"Mr. Lane, this man was following you trying to steal the antidote!"

"I see." Lane waved him off, "You can leave us."

Once the guard had left, Lane didn't waste any time. He went straight up to Keh and landed a heavy punch on his face!

Keh fell to the ground, blood streaming from his nose and mouth...

It was clear, Lane had put a lot of force behind that punch.

"Following me, huh? Thought you could outsmartand steal the antidote to show off to Dorothy?"

Since Keh couldn't move his arms or legs, he couldn't even get up.

Opening his mouth, blood stained his teeth and lips, "I didn't want... to steal the antidote..."

Lane crouched in front of him, grabbing his jaw to force Keh to meet his gaze.

"Not after the antidote? Then givea good reason why you were following me."

"Really?"

"Yes."

Lane's grip tightened, his knuckles turning white with the force.

"Keh, you think I'm a fool? Listen to yourself. Do you think I'd believe that?"

"I have no choice. Killif you must, but that's the reason."

As Lane said this, he kept his eyes fixed on Keh's.

Any sign of evasion, and today... would be his last.

"Lane, | want to leave, but you won't let me! And now you suspect me! Hah, you're truly paranoid!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another of Lane's punches connected with Keh's face.

A sharp pain shot through the bridge of his nose.

"You better remember who you're talking to! Taking your life would be easy for me."

"Then do it! | have nothing more to say! I've answered your questions, and if you don't believe me, there's nothing | can do."
