    It’s even worse than working overtime for a whole week.


    Be let out a sigh too. “Honey I know I shouldn’t always instill this fear of marriage in you. After all,


    youll have to get manied eventually and have a home of your own to rry on, But just can’t help


    worrying! Heel like all men are up to no good.”


    Thinking back, Dorothy’s father was also gentle and considerate, without a single w. It was that fact


    that made Be fall head over heels for him, even blocking her own way out


    “Mom, don’t think about those things. You have surgery tomorrow You should rest more. She tucked


    her mother in and smiled. “Finally, the surgery is happening. Nothing else matters to me.”


    She had been waiting for that day for a very long time.


    After she put her mother to sleep, she found herse I too excited to sleep.


    She opened the internal software of the Lopez Corporation on herputer, wanting to organize her


    fides again, but every time, she couldn’t help but look at Everell’s ount.


    He was still crine.


    Everett, the CEO, was really dedicated


    Dorothy stared at the screen for a while before she realized she was doing something only a love–


    struck woman would de


    She quickly looked away, but she couldn’t get Everett’s face out of her mind. That made her lose the


    mood to work, so she closed herputer and forced herself to sleep


    After who knew how long she finally managed to fall asleep in her drowsy state, she heard someone


    calling her name


    She opened her eyes and


    mother dressed and sitting on hed. Next to her were Keh and his parents


    “You’re finally awake. You were workingte against night, weren’t you? My daughter is just so


    career–driven”


    Her mother’s words brought her back to reality. She quickly got up, “Why…why are you guys here?”


    Keh gave her a reassuring look and told her not to panic

    Be out in,” asked them toe. I was worried you would be too busy waiting outside the operating


    room by yourself. If Keh is here with you, III feel more at ease.


    “Yes, Dorothy, we’re here to keep youpany” Kehs mom was a very amiable woman. Even


    though she had only met Dorothy for the second time, she really liked her and warmly took her hand.


    Watching that scene, Be felt that she had achieved her goat


    Her aim was to repeatedly secure a ce in the family for her daughter to let the Nelser family know


    that if they mistreated her daughter, she would not have taken it lying down.


    Soon, a nurse came to lead the patient to the operating mom.


    The red light outside lit up, and the words ‘in surgery” made Dorothy’s heart race.


    Suddenly, she fell a jacket being draped over her. A refreshing mint scent filled her nostrils.


    She turned around subconsciously


    It was Keh,


    “You’re not dressed warmly enough Youll catch a cold.”


    Tm fine.” Dorothy declined his jacket. Also, I’m really sorry! I didn’t know my mom went in bother you


    again.”


    Tve told you belove, as long as your mom is at ease, it’s finel Karen told me earlier that you’ve been


    working like crazy to save up for this surgery: Now that we’re finally hem, the most important thing is to


    make sure nothing goes wrong.”


    Dorothycked down and thought for a long time belom she finally spoke in a soft valse, ‘Mr. Nelson,


    you’ve seen the situation in my family. The doctor said that my mother’s surgery won’t be a one time fix


    and could rpse of any time in the future. So, we’re not suitable.”
