"Uh, okay..." David finally sensed something was off. He looked at Dorothy, then at Everett, "You two…"
"I work at his company!" Dorothy didn't wait for Everett to speak. She blurted out before him.
"Oh, I see!" David felt a sense of relief, blatantly eyeing Dorothy.
She had always been beautiful.
Back in middle school, even when she was dressed in rags, with her hair tied up with a frayed hairband, it couldn't hide her delicate features. Especially at that time when she was dressed neatly, with her long algae-like hair cascading over her shoulders, her radiant eyes still pure, her petite and delicate nose, her features could have been the standard for plastic surgery hospitals.
Seeing that he was about to say something to Dorothy, Everett subtly pulled her back a step before him.
"Let's catch up another day. We're busy today."
"Oh! Then you guys carry on! We can catch up at the reunion."
Being a man, David could sense Everett's detached politeness, so he didn't insist on adding Dorothy's contact right away.
He figured once she was added to the group, he could add her too.
As Everett and Dorothy entered the private room, some of the ordered dishes were already served.
Kevin had already saved the head seat for his boss and left the seat next to it empty.
So, Dorothy had no choice but to sit next to him casually.
"Mr. Lopez, regarding our subsidiary's acquisition of Joy Group's three hundred million in bad assets, we have chosen their Joy Dairy Company as our debt-to-equity target. The contract part has been handed over to Ms. Heather."
Kevin was a workaholic. He seized every opportunity to report on work since Everett was usually too busy.
"Hmm, she will know how to leave a way out for the company." Everett murmured.
His confident tone and casual attitude showed his trust in Heather.

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...
