Everett clearly didnât want to hear her out. She could see that his eyebrows were furrowed in irritation
âDo you think Dorothy Ekes you?â Heather suddenly threw this question at him
He pursed his lips. âThatâs got nothing to do with this.â
âHow is it not? It is! She clearly has no feelings for you yet she could sign a contract with you for
money. She basically sold herself for marriage. What else wouldnât she sell?â
âHeatherâ This was the first time in all the years theyâd known each other that Everett had called her
name with such stem ness.
The atmosphere in the car tumed icy, and neither of them spoke
Heather tumed her head to look out the window. She tried hard to stay calm, not wanting to start a real
argument with Everett at this time.
ce that we
we disagree.â
âDrive away from here first. Amanda is probably still watching from behind. We canât let her see
Heatherâs tone was pleading, and her posture had become low
Everell glanced in the rearview mirror
Sure enough, Amanda was still standing at the entrance of the mansion, watching them.
âEverett, before we have solid evidence, can you please stay neutral? Donât judge me se quickly, Iâm
begging youâ
The usually proud Heather now spoke with a tremble in her voice. She seemed to be on the verge of
tears.
Heatherâs request was reasonable.
Currently, Dorothy had no evidence to prove that Heather was involved.
Everett didnât give her a response. Instead, he stepped on the gas and drove away from the mansion.
Dorothy arrived at the Prosperity Consortium with the evidence she had found, accompanied by Karen.
Upon seeing her, Mr. Percy quickly stormed over âFound any evidence?â
âTrecovered the message she sent me. Have a look.â Dorothy handed him her phone.
The message only contained an email address, and the phone number was now cut of service.
âThis crap proves that Ms. Heather framed you?â Mr. Percy raised an eyebrow in disbelief.
This sounded like a fairy tale, didnât it?
The CEO of SinoSuccess Enterprises had personally come to ask for clarification on this matter, putting
Mr. Percy under immense pressure similar to Dorothyâs.
âBut it was indeed Heather who called me at the time. She said she urgently needed the core technical
blueprint. I questioned why she needed them, but she said the project would be impacted if she didnât
get them, so I gave them to her.â Dorothy was speaking the complete truth
She had trusted Heatherâs loyalty to the Lopez Corporation and believed she wouldnât betray the
company.
âWho would believe this story youâve spun?â Mr. Percyâs face changed dramatically, and he threw the
phone back at her.
âDorothy, can you think before you speak? Donât just spout nonsenso if you want to drag someone
down with you! Thatâs Heather, the chief lawyer of the Lopez Corporation. What woud she gain from
framing an assistant like you? Are you sure she doesnât just find you annoying?!â
âI think it might be becauseâ¦.. Iâve been working of the HQ of the Lopez Corporation lately and have
been getting close to Mr. Lopez Sheâs jealous.â
âMs. Heather suspects you of seducing Mr. Lopez?
âHow ridiculous!â Mr. Percy was speechless. He couldnât help but roll his eyes. âWho are you? Who is
Heather? Is there any comparison between you two? Dorothy, do I need to remind you of Ms.
Heatherâs status and identity?â
Karen, who had been standing by, was not pleased with his attitude.
âWhat do you mean? Just because sheâs richer than Dorothy, is whoever she does justified? Thatâs
discrimination I
âWho the hell do you think youâre talking to?â Mr. Percy immediately started cursing at her. âKaren, no
one wants to sort this out more than I do right now As long as you provide concrete evidence that Ms.
Heather framed Dorothy, 111 belleve anything! Even if you say it was Mr. Lopez who framed Dorothy, fil
believe it! Whereâs the evidence? Bring It!â
