To the outside world, it was all envy. They thought Dorothy had hit the jackpot, snagging Everett's favor.
But in her heart, it weighed like a ton of bricks.
What could she possibly give back to Everett?
Dorothy believed that for a relationship to last, there should at least be some balance! It was near impossible to balance their statuses, but at least their efforts could have been equal.
...
After a full day of work, she received a message from Everett asking her to wait for him after his meeting so they could go home together.
With the spare time, Dorothy tidied up her desk.
She had been too busy to sort out her documents. As long as she knew where they were, it was enough.
After tidying up, she checked her phone but there was no message from Everett.
His meeting must have been a tough nut to crack.
Stretching her back, Dorothy decided to take a stroll. But as soon as she stepped out of her office, she ran into the last person she wanted to see.
It was Heather.
Clearly, Heather hadn't expected to run into her either.
She was taken aback, "What are you doing here?"
"I work for the Lopez Corporation. Isn't it normal for me to be here?" Dorothy's following sentence implied, “You've already quit. You showing up at the Lopez Corporation is what's not normal!”
But of course, she didn’t say any of that.
Heather frowned, "Don't think you've won! You'll never pass the hurdle of Everett's parents!"

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...
