"Mr. Lopez."
Dorothy pondered for a few seconds before replying, "I've got a boyfriend."
She didn't buy into this pie-in-the-sky kind of luck. She'd never had such a lucky break in her life and she didn't plan to start believing now.
Whether he was trying to test her further or genuinely needed a wife for some reason, she had no interest in playing along. A simple lie about having a boyfriend should solve all her problems.
Upon hearing this, Everett's lips tightened, and his gaze deepened.
"Is that so?"
"Why would I lie to Mr. Lopez?"
Before he could respond, Dorothy bowed slightly. "I won't bother you anymore, so could you please pass me the contract?"
"Sure."
Everett coldly nodded, not trying to keep her any longer. He simply stated that the contract was with his secretary and closed the door of the suite.
Dorothy left quickly with the contract, wishing the conversation she just had was a figment of her imagination.
Everett wanted to marry her?
What a joke!
...
After getting the contract, Dorothy didn't go straight to Anna for the handover. Instead, she went to Mr. Percy.
She had been working on this project for a very long time, so it wouldn't make sense to suddenly back out. Of course, she knew that, as a leader, Mr. Percy's dignity needed to be saved. So, even if she felt wronged, she had to apologize for the sake of her job.
