    Chapter 88


    After Dorothy got back to Karen’s house, she didn’t even have a moment to take a sip of water before


    she started sorting out the materials for the uing meeting.


    She’d just received the task from Genesis Creations Inc that day, and it was a big deal from the


    headquarters, so her understanding of the project was still at the beginner stage. She knew she’d have


    to pay extra attention during the meeting

    Once she’d prepared everything she could think of, Dorothy sat on her chair, turned on herputer,


    and opened the interface fo


    The text disyed on the screen was: 20.00 Channel One Technology Development Project Meeting


    Main Attendee: Everett


    As she stared at the words on the screen, Dorothy suddenly


    Would she be able to see how badly he was hurt? Would his face he disfigured?


    She nced at the lower right corner of herputer screen. There was still nearly or hour before the


    meeting started! Under normal circumstances, she would have gone and found something to eat since


    she wasn’t sure how long the meeting would havested.


    But Dorothy didnt want to leave herputer screen,


    She just wanted to watch the time and wait for the meeting to start.


    Thest time she remembered time passing so slowly was at the dinner Mr. Percy had taken her to


    meet Everett. Every second felt like sitting on pins and needles.


    So, Dorothy just watched the clock, ticking away minute by minute


    As it got closer, her growing nervousness continued to unseille her


    Finally, with ten minutes left to eight, she saw Channel One open up, and a notification popped up on


    the software telling relevant personnel they could enter


    On impulse, Darathy was about to click it but hesitated and waited a few more minutes


    What if it was just her and Everett in the meeting room? Wouldn’t that have been awkward?


    But it turned out that she was overthinking it.


    After entering the meeting room, even Kevin was there, but Everett’s camera was still ofl.


    Then Dorothy received a message from Kevin on her private chat


    My inte is a bit shaky today, so record the meeting and send me a copy tomorrow:


    She sent back an OK emoji, then switched back to the main screen, only to see Everett’s handsome


    face appear before her eyes!


    He seemed thinner


    Just from the angle of his gaze at the documents, the tredness lurking in his eyes could have been


    seen


    His exquisite face was still deeply attractive, with a piece of gauze on his forehead that stood out. That


    must be from the car ident.


    That was the first time she had seen him since the incident, and Everett seemed to have regained his


    usual coldness, severe and aloof, with no hint of warmth in his eyes.


    Dorothy subconsciously covered her heart, where she felt a twinge of pain.


    It felt empty as if something had been lost.


    “The matenals from today’s exchange meeting have been uploaded. You can check them out,” Everett


    said.


    As soon as he spoke, everyone in the meeting immediately went to check.


    Dorothy was ‘beatte in opening it. The materials contained thetest progress of the technology


    exchange, with asional pictures. She was quick to spot Everett’s figure in the pictures


    He was dressed in a ck suit, holding a goblet and chatting with a foreign partner with his usual polite


    smile on his face.


    Next to him, it was clear that Heather had also attended the exchange. Perhaps because she’d just had


    surgery, she was sitting down, but her custom red dress was still quite conspicuous. It seemed to


    match Everett’s sult perfectly
