    “I’m talking to you.”


    “Yes, I never shared it with anyone else. Only Mr. Percy and I, as the project leader, have ess to the


    core technical blueprint.”


    “Got it


    Everett frowned and coldly dropped the subject before going into the bedroom with his phone.


    While watching his retreating figure, Dorothy twitched the corners of her lips.

    It was impossible to expect Everett to y the hera. She had to fend for herself,


    She returned to herputer tirelessly searching for ways to retrieve deleted text messages. But every


    method she tried was a scam.


    Dorothy called the service provider, only to be told that retrieval was impossible


    Was her future and all her previous hard work going to be ruined by Heather just like that


    Suddenly, the phone beside her lit up


    Keh sent her a message.


    But Dorothy wasn’t in the mood to check it. She simply got up to pack her bags, ready to rush back to


    the office to confront Heather


    This matter was rted to her reputation and future, she couldn’t just let it go.


    When Everett came out, he saw Dorothy packing


    “Heather asked you for the blueprint, right? Do you have proof?”


    “No.”


    Upon hearing this, Everett frowned and stepped forward, grabbing her wrist. “Leave this matter to me.”


    “No need; I can handle it myself!” Dorothy pulled her hand away. “If I didn’t do it, there must be a way to


    prove it!”


    “Dorothy, as I said, let me handle this”


    She stopped and looked at him. And then what? Just wait for thepany to fire me and carry this


    stain for the rest of my life?”


    “If you didn’t do it, no one can frame you.”


    “That’s true. But the reality is that Heather deliberately asked me for the blueprint, then wiped the


    evidence to frame me. If the truthes out, the Lopez Corporation would lose her as their chief


    lawyer Dorothy met his deep gaze. “Could you beer that?


    Could he bear the loss of Heather’s contribution to thepany ruining Heather’s future, and losing his


    beloved?


    This seemed like a corporate struggle, but in reality. Heather did this to bring Everet; to a crossroads,


    betting that he couldn’t bear to let her go.


    A chiefwyer versus a junior assistant? It was a no–brainer.


    As the seconds ticked by, Everett remained silent.


    Dorothy didn’t expect an answer; she knew clearing her name was up in her.


    Once she finished packing, she picked up her luggage and prepared to leave.


    Everett stepped forward and blocked the door. His voice was slightly hoarse as he spake “Give me


    some time. This is… Armanda was currently in the country with Heather by her side. If she found out


    about the incident, she would definitely demand that he side unconditionally with Heather, even asking


    him to outright fire Dorothy


    Considering her previous suicide attempt simply because he refused the arranged marriage, he


    couldn’t predict the consequences if he defied her wishes now


    So, if he wanted to help Dorothy, he couldn’t intervene directly


    “Mr. Lopez, I understand your predicament and appreciate your willingness to talk to me and give me


    the chance to defend myself. But I also know that the evidence is up to me to find. I just hope that when


    the truthes oil, you can be fair,”


    “Can you trust me once?”


    Trust him to handle the matter?


    But clearly the answer was willen all over Dorothy’s face.
