She Left She Thrived She’s Worth Billions novel Chapter 632

However...

Everett was incredibly stressed about it.

He had always been someone with a very low presence.

After his father passed away, being surrounded by far more capable men like Dominic and Gavin only fueled his insecurity, making him fade even further into the background.

Now, no matter how hard he tried to show up in front of Melanie, he could see that she still looked right through him.

He stood quietly by her desk until she finished the entire cup of coffee.

"Everett..."

Hearing his name suddenly, he jolted and quickly looked at her.

Melanie looked up, meeting his eyes.

"Let's grab dinner after work. My treat."

At those words, Everett's eyes lit up like a flipped switch, gleaming with excitement.

"Y-Yes! Sure! Oh, wait, no, I mean... I'll pay."

"No, it's on me."

Melanie's tone was resolute.

"Just wait for me at your desk after work."

"Oh... okay..."

Everett nodded. He honestly had no idea how he walked out of her office or made it back to his desk.

His heart was hammering wildly against his ribs, beating harder and faster by the second.

Why would she suddenly ask him out to dinner?

It would just be the two of them, right?

With a few hours still left until the end of the workday, Everett was completely distracted, completely unable to focus on his tasks.

Finally, quitting time arrived.

He stood up and glanced toward her office.
