    “It’s none of your business” Again, he spoke to her coldly.


    Heather could never understand Everett What did sheck? When it came to her feelings for him and


    her contributions to the Lopez Corporation, how was she any less than Dorothy?!


    He was supposed to be hers!


    In his office, Everett had just sat down when Kevin messaged him that everything was arranged.


    He opened hisptop and quickly scanned the documents on the screen. His gaze uncontrobly fell


    on the report from the branch office about the Everglow City’s Resort project.


    Had the project entered its second phase already?


    How was her injury healing?


    Had Keh been visiting her in the hospital?


    As he thought about this, a self–mocking smirk appeared on Everett’s thin lips. He felt unbearably


    pathetic, more so than he had when he was trying to win Dorothy over.


    What was even more humiliating was that he was simultaneously taking out his phone and dialing


    Jeffrey’s number.


    After a few rings, Jeffery picked up What’s up? Can’t handle thepany on your own?


    Everett rubbed his forehead in frustration. It seemed like the words he wanted to say got stuck in his


    throat


    From the other end of the line, the sounds of an airport announcement could be heard.

    “You’re leaving Everglow City?”


    “Yeah, there’s not much left to do here I need to get back to help you out at thepany


    Everett drummed his fingertips on his desk. He remained silent until Jeffrey thought he had hung up.


    Then he finally spoke in a low voices Dorothy… Is she healed?”


    “Oh, so that’s what you wanted to ask!” Jeffrey eximed, “She’s doing great! She’s swimming through


    thepany like a fish in water. Many male superiors are relentlessly chasing her, just like you. It


    seems more than a few are pouring their hearts out for her. Anyone wanting to care for her would have


    to get in line.”


    “Jeffrey, I’m being serious.”


    “And I’m answering seriously Dorothy’s injury is healed, and she’s back on the project. She’s thriving in


    her career and swimming happily in love. Not only has she married, but in the second year after your


    divorce, she..”


    Jeffrey’s statement hang in the ar


    He suddenly remembered what Lane had said to him, which made a lot of sense


    Since he knew how much his good friend, Everett, cared about Dorothy, he realized that if he found out


    that she had not only married in a hurry but also had a daughter, his mental state would definitely take


    a hit.


    So why bother telling him?


    “And then what?”


    “And then she forgot about you? Jeffrey sighed as he gave him advice. “Everett, you’re so outstanding


    that the line of women wanting to chase you could reach all the way to France. Let go of Dorothy. You


    heard it yourself, she openly dered her love for her husband. You can’t possibly want to be the


    homewrecker, right?”


    Everett was silent. He didn’t utter a single word. He hung up after nearly a minute.


    Jeffrey didn’t need to tell him this. He had already repeated it to himself countless times. But it seemed


    not to work.


    Suddenly, the ringing of a phone broke the silence in the office.


    Everett nced at his phone instinctively, realizing it wasn’t his that was ringing, but another one.


    He lit up the screen, revealing an unread message on WhatsApp.


    It was a message from Dorothy.


    [Hello, sir, I’m the owner of the car that you bumped into in Everglow City. My car has been repaired,


    and I’ve refunded the remaining money to you. Here’s a photo of the receipt)


    Along with it, a picture of her holding the receipt was attached.


    This must be her personal WhatsApp. Everett could see the wound on Dorothy’s finger when he


    zoomed into the picture.
