Chapter 33

“What?!”

“You should know why Everett picked you.” Heather instantly regained her noble and haughty

expression. She had a slight smirk on her red lips and began looking at her condescendingly. “I’m just

giving you a friendly reminder. If you don’t want to hear it just pretendi didn’t say anything‘

Heather’s demeanor was like a wife’s when she wamed her husband’s mistress.

But in reality, the name on Everett’s manage License was Dorothy.

She really wanted to refert, but the words got stuck in her throat out of fear.

Thank goodness she didn’t blurt it out.

That would cause such a big misunderstanding. Why arque with Heather about these things? She

didn’t even like Everell, right?

On the way back, Dorothy was particularly quiet. She was just staring out the car window

She used to be awkward when alone with Everett, but today was different. Today, she was lant and

“Where did you go after shopping just now? Everett’s long hand rested on the steering wheel casually

taking to her while waiting for the traffic light.

“Just strolled around.”

“See anything you liked?”

Dorothy shock her head. “No.

Even a tube of toothpaste at that store cost thousands. She didn’t have the courage to like anything

there at all

Everett took a deep breath, took a black card out of the driver’s side anmrest, and handed it to her.

“Take it”

1 don’t need this! Mr. Lopez, I’m already very grateful that you could help pay for my mather’s medical

bills.”

“Dorothy, this for you to keep for emergencies “Everett had quessed early on that she wouldn’t want it,

His excuse made it hard for Dorothy to refuse.

Now that she had accepted it. Everett knew he couldn’t dwell on this topic anymore sa head office,

Dorothy was a little stunned after being hit by this sudden big opportunity. “But I dont know much about

this.”

“That’s why youll be doing market research with Kevin. Comparing the performance of Sucial

Networking Service to other listed and non–listed companies in the industry will be a bit tough”

“I’m not afraid of hard work?” She instantly shock off her inexplicably low mood from earlier and began

to seriously analyze this with Everett. “Actualy, energy conservation is a big piece of the pie. Many

provinces and cities are heavily polluted, and environmental protection is ther top priority. There aren’t

many companies doing this now, and the market won’t be saturated in the near future.”

Everett nodded with a hint of approval in his eyes.

He always knew that Dorothy was smart. He wanted her qualities to shine

If it weren’t for the many pressures of reality limiting her, she would’ve been in the position of

investment director long ago. She might have sowed to even greater heights.

“Thank you for giving me this opportunity, Mr. Lopez. Dorothy was genuinely grateful.

This project wasn’t about bonuses. It was about being directly promoted to the core investment team at

the head office. This is what many peers dream of.

“You’re calling me Mr. Lopez again.”

She was so happy that she let loose. ‘How about I just call you Evereti in private? Like when we were
