    But she didn’t forget about her duty. She thought for a moment and said, “Guess I’ll be on breakfast


    duty tomorrow, eh?”


    Since when did the sugar daddy serve himself?


    Everett chuckled lightly. He was wearing a dark-colored robe, lookingfortablyzy. He walked over


    and pulled out a chair to sit down on at the dining table. “Don’t be so formal, love. After we register


    today, you’ll officially be my wife. At least in the eyes of thew” Since he was so upfront, Dorothy


    decided to stop beating around the bush. “So, Mr. Lopez, how long is this contract marriage gonna


    last? Maybe we should seal the deal in writing. What do you think?”


    After all, it was all about business, and she needed to set a time limit for herself.


    If Everett said their mamage needed tost a long time, she would need to think it over.


    Men had a golden age thatsted for quite a while. When the time came and Everett needed a divorce,


    he would still be a hot bachelor. But for her, it would be a disaster. Who would want an old, divorced


    woman?


    Everett, who was holding a fork and knife, paused for a moment, seemingly considering the question.


    Eventually, he nodded. “Alright, I’ll have my assistant draft a contract. Let’s sign for a year first.”.


    “Sounds good.” Dorothy finally rxed a bit and tasted Everett’s porridge..


    Hmm, it was really tasty.


    After breakfast, she and Everett went to register their marriage.


    After signing and leaving her fingerprints, she was officially Mrs. Lopez. The whole process took less


    than half an hour.


    “Ill have my assistant take you to the hospital to see your mother. After work, you cane straight to


    my ce.” Everett, already in his suit, was back to his aloof CEO demeanor. His tone left no room for


    argument.


    Dorothy nodded and left with the assistant.


    Not long after they left, another ck Maybach slowly pulled up next to Everett.


    The car window in the back seat rolled down, revealing Jeffrey’s devil-may-care handsome face.


    “Sometimes I really don’t get you, man. You’re taking such a big risk by registering a marriage with her


    without even confessing your feelings. What’s your game?”


    Everett gave him a cold nce, opened the car door, and got in.


    His voice was icy as he said, “She doesn’t have any feelings for me yet.”


    “So?” Jeffrey’s eyes widened. “You do realize what the consequences will be if your parents find out


    about this secret marriage, right? Is she worth it?”


    “They won’t know if you don’t tell them.”


    In Jeffrey’s eyes, if a woman was not to his liking, he would just hit it and quit it. If he was really into


    her, he might keep her around for a bit longer. He just couldn’t understand why Everett would go to


    such lengths for a mere assistant.


    “You’re just burying your head in the sand.” Jeffrey rolled his eyes in disbelief. “Honestly, I’m quite


    curious to see how this story ends. What if this little assistant never develops feelings for you? WhatBelongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.


    will you do?”


    Everett ignored him and opened hisptop to work.


    He couldn’t put these things off until the night. Tonight was their official wedding night, and he had no


    intention of ying the generous benefactor forever.


    As the car started, Jeffrey suddenly remembered something and nudged Everett’s shoulder. “Oh, by


    the way, Heather ising back next week. We should all get together and catch up. Have you seen


    her on Twitter? She’s absolutely stunning now.”


    Jeffrey was excited, but Everett didn’t even look up. “We’ll talk about it next week.”


    “Hey! She’sing back just to help you, man. You’re being quite cold-hearted.”
