There was no way that Dorothy was buying that
âDonât be so guarded around me, wil you? Iâm not a venomous creature. What harm could I possibly
doââLane sounded very hurt.
He was genuinely trying to pursue a romantic relationship with this lady.
1know you wonât hurt me.â
But he sure could make things difficut for her.
âDidnât we make a deal? I chase, and you just give me a chance. That means I should at least be able
to show myself off a bit right?â Lane was also feeling a bit frustrated with her attitude.
Even if he was not the best, he didnât think he was appalling enough to be despised by a lady to this
excent
âjust donât want to hold you backâ
âNo worries, you wonât.â
Lane hung up immediately after saying that He was afraid she might say something else to infuriate
him
Dorothy stared at her phone screen and let out a sigh
By dusk, Dorothyâs two assistants had arrived in Havenbrook Cry
Being a leader herself, she didnât dive straight into business discussions with her assistants but instead
took them to a local diner
This is so delicious! Ive been to Hawenbrook City before but never knew they had such amazing foodâ
Her assistant, Natalia praised the food enthusiastically after taking a bite
âIf itâs good, eat up Dorothy chuckled and pushed the dish closer to her.
Her other assistam, Emmett, appeared to be more reserved. As the only male at the table and being
new to Dorothy, he didnât dare speak or act too much
âMiss Sanchez, Iâve organized the documents you
su gave me. Would you like to
âLetâs eat first. I find you guys back at the hotel. Traveling for work is hard so letâs fill up our bees firstâ
Dorothy smiled at Emmett. A friendly gesture
might put him at case
Emmett nodded and finally picked up his fork.
Dorothyâs assistants were both highly educated, but they were fairly new to the workforce.
Sometimes when she looked at them, she saw herself when she first started at the Prosperity
Consortium.
âMiss Sanchez, are you a local of Havenbrook Cry?â
âYes, I grew up here Dorothy admitted it readily. She had grown to accept this place now.
Because no matter what kind of awful memones lingered here, it was stil her hometown.
âSo how did you end up at East Star Enterprises? Most people here usually go to Eldora City to make a
living. Didnât you consider applying to the Lopez Corporation Natala, who was naive and quieless,
didnât realize that Dorothy froze for a moment when she mentioned the Lopez Corporation
I never had the opportunityâ
âWith your work capability not going to the Lopez Corporation is their loss! You have no idea but while
you were away on business in Everglow City Deveral headhunters were asking for your contact info.
Some even called me.â
Dorothy chuckled. âThatâs their job. Itâs not because Iâm exceptionalâ
If you were not exceptional, why would they headhunt you? Why arent they headhunting me?! As soon
as Natalia said this, Emmett discreetly pulled at her sleeve
Dorothy noticed their little interaction and waved her hand. Itâs okay. Donât be nervous, Emmett. Itâs
your first time traveling with me, so itâs normal to not feel accustomed You donât have to be so formal in
the futureâ
âExactly! Miss Sanchez is the best boss in the world Natalia gave her a thumbs up while still munching
her food.
âLetâs eat. Weâll talk about work later when we get jack. Donât shortchange yourself on this business
trip. The company will cover all expenses Dorothy continued trying to help Emmett relax.
