    Chapter 73


    Just in time, his assistant bought dinner.


    He only messed with Dorothy once. then let her be


    But he still drained most of her energy. Even ealing required him to carry her to the dining room


    Before sleeping. Everett propped himself up on the bedhead and read a book.


    Facing his deep profile. Dorothy wanted to ask about Heather several times, but in the end, she stayed


    silent.


    She nced at her phone. The day after the next day would have been the 25th of August


    Everett should not be retuming to Bay Residence that day, which was also the deadline her mother had


    given her.


    The next day. Derathy got busy the moment she arrived at the office


    Kevin still had a few big projects in his hands, and he couldn’t focus solely on Social Networking


    Service, so he handed over almost everything else to Dorothy.


    It was almost noon when she finally lifted her head from a pile of files and documeris, found a staircase


    and called Karen.


    “By tomorrow, at thetest, I need a guy to apary me to see my mom.”


    “Huh?” Karen was obviously taken aback. “I tried to find someone for you, but he said he can only do it


    next week, cant you wa’t a hit -longer?”


    “My mom said I have to bring someone to see her within three days, or she will be discharged from the


    hospital.”


    If possible, Dorothy would have preferred to push the deadline back. It would have been best if it was


    pushed back so far that her mother forgot about it.


    “Your mom really knows how to squeeze you. Karen clicked her tongue, “What to do? I try to


    communicate with my friend agan. worry for now.


    After hanging up. Dorothy returned to her office and saw a message from Everell


    [The hospital said your mother wants to postpone the operation]


    She quickly replied the message.


    [No need to postpone! I’ll handle the matter. Thanks for your concern.]


    She knew her mother was giving her a veiled warning because she probably thought Dorothy wouldn’t


    be bringing anyone.


    Dorothy sighed. The thought of Be made her feel dispirited and frustrated but mostly helpless.


    Do you need my help?


    Everett’s messagee again.


    She pulled a wry smile.


    Don’t


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    She would have loved to type, “Yes. I need to take you to the ward to see my mom, be scolded and


    threatened. Can you take 117”


    But she sighed and replied, “No, she’s just throwing a tantrum over a small matter. fil talk to her. She’s


    just a bit scared of the surgery.”


    She exited the chat and sent her mother a text.


    [Tomorrow, I definitely bring someone over. Don’t make a fuss about postponing the surgery. Its hard to


    gather all the specialists]


    She had said he piece but Karen didn’t reply even by the end of the workday


    With a heavy heart, Dorothy returned to Bay Residence. She couldn’t concentrate on the documents on


    herputer at all. Her mind


    was full of the maler


    It was not like she could have conjured up


    nut of thin air to apany her the next day.


    Perhaps sensing Dorothy’s restlessness, Everett returned to the bedroom after finishing his work. His


    tall figure stood beside her exuding an overwhelming presence.


    “Whats wrong?‘


    “Nothing. I just a little headache from reading contracts.”


    “You can deal with it tomorrow.”


    Everett forcefully shut down herputer, theny down on the bed.


    Aftere intimate moments, he got up to take a bath.


    15001


    Suddenly, he paused at the bathroom door, “Tomorrow, I have an important matter”


    Dorothy could still feel the warmth of his lips on hers, the next second it was as if she was thrown


    directly into


    “Oh…” She knew that it was Heather’s birthday.


    “Don’te back before 10 pm tomorrow. Go to your mother first.
