Meanwhile, at the Eldoma City Airport.
An international flight had just landed.
A woman, dragging her suitcase, emerged from the terminal. She stood at the entrance of the airport,
removing the oversized sunglasses from her face
After looking up at the blue sky and white clouds, her lips curled into a slight smile.
âEldarria City, Iâm back!â
It had been years since Heather last set foot on this ground. She had given Everett space to heal from
his heartbreak with Dorothy. She avoided upsetting him and stayed out of his sight as much as
possible, only to find out he was getting married.
And she was not the brideâtoâbe.
How could that be?
If she could separate Everett and Dorothy four years ago, then she could defeat any woman trying to
steal Everett from her now.
Heather refused to believe that all the effort she put into Everett would not win him over
After a momentâs pause at the entrance, she pulled out her phone and dialed Jeffreyâs number. âIâm
backâ
âBack where? Home?â
âEldoria City âHeather laughed. âEverett didnât even tell me about his wedding. Thatâs not cool. I have to
rush back to see his bride.â
There was silence from Jeffrey on the other end of the line before he finally spoke. âStop beating
around the bush, youâre here to steal him back, arenât you?â
Heather didnât feel embarrassed after being called out
She hailed a cab outside the airport and slid into the backseat. âShouldnât come? If his fiancée isnât
accepted by the Lopez family or by his parents, then the marriage is maldâ
âCant you see? Everett doesnât like you. You should just give up.â
âWould you give up a project youâve spent your whole life planning?â Heatherâs tone was heavy, she
then followed it up with a cold laugh. âOf course. I donât expect you to understand. Just tell me who the
new woman in Everettâs life is. Whatâs her name? ill find out the rest myself.â
Im not in Eldoria City, and I donât know Heâs kept this one very hidden, so I canât help you.â
Heatherâs eyebrows furrowed, and her posture straightened. âI donât believe you donât know?
âBeleve it or not, thatâs your problem. Why donât you ask Everett? You guys never consulted me when
yo
n you were scheming against Dorothy. Iâm worried that if Everett knew the truth. I canât even imagine
the consequences. I wonât get involved now.â
Understanding his meaning, Heather let out a sigh of mocking resignation. âWhat are you afraid of?
Even if he knew, it was his parents who did it. What does it have to do with you? I wonât tell him
anything You and him are good buddies, which gives you more reason to understand that him marrying
me is the best choice for the Lopez Corporation! I can sacrifice everything for him. No one loves him
more than I do!â
âThatâs only if Everett himself is willingâ
âNever mind it doesnt matter if you donât help me. Anyway, Iâm already here.â Heatherâs lips twisted into
a smirk. âHe was so in love with Dorothy back them and was ready to give up everything for her, but
they still broke up. You can hide from me, but I find out in the end. This is me giving you a chance to
pick sidesâ
Jeffrey laughed oddly from the other end. âThen you go ahead and find out. Take your time.â
His response aroused suspicion in Heather. If he was saying this, it meant things were not as simple as
they seemed.
âIt cant be⦠Dorothy is back, is she?â
