Chapter 300

Everett massaged his temples as his eyes revealed a deep sense of imetion.

The announcement of my engagement hasn’t affected the company”

Amanda’s voice rase in pitch. “Hasn’t affected? Shareholders have been calling to inquire about the

future Mrs. CED. Do you think they’re just curious?” For a corporation as large as Lopez Corp., any

addition had to be scrutinized if there was any scandal or any hint of dirt that could be dug up, it could

impact the steck market.

The said it hasn’t had an impact.”

Then tell me who she is and let me investigate. I wont rest easy otherwise

1’m the acting CFC of the company. If I say it’s fire then it’s fine. If you and Dad are worried, you can

strip me of my title.”

Amanda was seeling. “You.”

“So, I’m a CEO who can’t even decide on comping persorne? Maybe I shouldn’t be in this position”

“You would sacnfice your CEO postion for a woman?” Amanda paused and called. 1 bet its Corally No

one else could make you lose your sense like

Everett didn’t rebuke her Instead, his lips curled into a mocking smile.

“So, you knew.”

She knew that Dorothy could make him lose his senses.

Amanda fell sient

“She’s remarried and living happily. Don’t disturb her.” Everett a voice was calm, but then was an

absolute threat in his tone. 1 don’t want to argue with you”

It was best not to cross his line.

“You’re really losing & for Dorothy?”

Tve lived my life by the book in both school and work, I never strayed from the path save for Dorothy

She was his only exception

Dorothy slept soundly that night, only to be woken by her alarm clock in the early morning.

After lounging in bed for a while, she got up to freshen up.

Just as she was about to leave her phone rang.

It was Lane.

Tm downstairs at the entrance of the Dreamscape Hotel. I give you a lift to work.”

“There’s no need. I can manage by myself. Her car was food so she could die herself to work

She had been planning to keep her distance from Lane. There was no way she was getting into his car

“Look at you overthinking again. I wanted to discuss a few things about your trip to Havenbrook City.

Our partners there can be a bit difficult. Cur previous dealings weren’t very pleasant. I thought I should

prepare you, since you’re a lady and al.”

“Let’s discuss it at the office. There’s no rush

I’m already downstairs at your hotel. Are you going to reject me like this? That would really hurt my

feelings”

This was Lane’s usual tactic. He’d always justify his actions with work, and if that didn’t work, hed quit

her into it.

After all, Dorothy was working under him. She had to respect her superior’s face

Tim coming down.

Even though Dorothy was coming downstairs, she had no intention of getting into his car.

She knew better than to give people something to gossip about.

Employees were already spreading rumore about then when they barely had my personal interactions,

să imagine what they would say if they saw her and Lane together

She didn’t want to waste her precious time explaning things

Dorothy descended the stairs with her bag, spotting Lane’s car from a distance.

He was leaning against his car, dressed in white casual attire. A pair of sunglasses adomed his

handsome face, allracting quite a few onlookers There was no doubt that Lane was strikingly

handsome.
