“Mr. Lopez, you’re here! I’ll leave you to it then.”
“Sure.”
Kevin caught sight of Everett, flashed him a grin, and gave Dorothy a little wave goodbye as he headed out.
Dorothy wished Kevin had taken her with him.
The executive floor was usually reserved for Everett and Kevin, and anyone else needed Everett’s permission to come up, which meant Dorothy was on her own.
Instinctively, she took a step back to maintain a safe distance from Everett.
She didn’t want anyone to get the wrong idea about her relationship with the CEO. Not just for the sake of her own reputation, but also to spare the feelings of Everett’s current girlfriend.
Woman to woman, Dorothy figured if Everett’s ex knew they were alone together, it would hurt her. Not that Dorothy knew who the “her” was.
“What are you dodging for?”
“Nothing.”
Everett knew she was being stubborn, so he just raised an eyebrow and said, “Let’s talk inside.”
He strode toward his office, but when he didn’t hear footsteps following, he paused.
“Can’t we just talk here? There's nobody else around.”
“Dorothy.” Everett turned around, standing under a spotlight that bathed him in a gentle glow, making his eyes shimmer like starlight.
For a moment, Dorothy looked lost in thought.
“Remember your place, Dorothy, or should I say, Ms. Sanchez?”
As the project director, she shouldn’t be talking back to the CEO. He was reminding her that this was work and they were at the company.
Two heavy weights seemed to press down on her, leaving Dorothy with no choice but to comply.
