But really, what did their drama have to do with her? Dorothy had bigger fish to fry. If Quincy hadn't called out her name, she would've happily played the part of the oblivious passerby.
"What's up?"
Approaching, Dorothy maintained a cool distance, about thirty feet between them. She was inside the company building, leaving Quincy no choice but to stand outside.
"I need to see Everett, it's urgent."
"Then call him. Why drag me into this?" Dorothy frowned, ready to walk away.
"Ms. Sanchez, you'll regret it if you don't help me!" Quincy blurted out in desperation.
At that, Dorothy paused mid-step.
Before she could respond, Kevin appeared from the elevator.
He glanced at Dorothy with a smile, then turned to Quincy. "Mr. Lopez has sent me to escort you up."
"Great!"
"…"
Dorothy stood rooted to the spot as Kevin took Quincy upstairs, her heart aching in a way she couldn't describe.
Karen was right.
She had been too naive.
Everett's initial dislike for Quincy didn't mean it would last forever. Once there was room in his heart, things were bound to change.
So...
Had the space that once belonged to her now been given to Quincy?
Was it hers now?
Dorothy slowly lifted a hand to her chest.
All her conjectures had been uncomfortable, but seeing Kevin personally escort Quincy, that hit differently!
Just earlier, Quincy had claimed to be Everett’s fiancée at Lopez Corporation.
And soon after, Kevin, the president’s right-hand man, came down personally to fetch her. That sent a clear message, didn’t it?

Sometimes Karen can be such a drama queen and immature....
For some reason I am now feeling suspicious about Kevin's new girlfriend....
I really hope this Perdita person is not a new villain....
I too echoed the sentiments of pppplllleeeaaaassssseeeeee bring this drama to an end. I beg of you!...
Really please finish this book and upload the full story so it can end. It's been drugout for so long!...
The intimate scenes in this story or uncomfortable to read. They either come off as being forced, painful, or simply not enjoyable....
Okay I left a long while ago and came back. Looks like it's been updated but still not done lol. I'll maybe wait 6 months before coming back and it'll probably still be going on. It's like a soap opera instead of a novel...
Kenneth is confirming something I've been thinking about him for several hundred chapters ago and that is he is a future murder suicide perpetrator. And after reading chapter 1275 yeah it's just brought the thought back....
How could Jeffrey throw the knife down at the scene of the crime with both their fingerprints on there?...
Again no update, so is this where it ends? Or post the whole book. Your dragging this out...
