He just wanted to give everything he could, all the best he had, to Dorothy, the sensitive girl who loved playing make-believe.
A smirk danced on Dorothy's lips as she gazed at the aloof, high and mighty President of the Lopez Corporation, who was uncharacteristically saying such sweet nothings to her. She was utterly touched.
Even if it turned out that her mom's predictions were correct and Everett was just toying with her, she thought this moment was worth it all!
She didn't want to overthink the rest.
...
Because of Heather’s abrupt resignation, the legal department of the Lopez Corporation was all over the place.
Several contracts were stuck in the legal department, as no one dared to replace Heather. The person who took her place was shaking in their boots.
If he weren’t swamped with work, he would've called in sick to avoid being caught in the crossfire.
Who in the Lopez Corporation didn't know about the special relationship between Ms. Heather and the president? Everyone thought her resignation was a stunt triggered by Dorothy making Heather green with envy!
In a few days, Ms. Heather would have been back.
"Knock knock."
Kevin knocked on the door of the president's office, then walked in, looking a bit helpless, "Mr. Lopez, the contract review process in legal is moving at a snail's pace. If the acquisition company throws us a curveball during this time, we’re in big trouble.”
Hearing his words, Everett paused with the pen in his hand.
"Go to legal. If they delay the contracts any further, let them face the music."
Kevin didn't say a word, hesitating as if he wanted to say something.
Everett stopped completely, glanced at him, and leaned back, "Spit it out."

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...
