Chapter 332

Lane stepped out of Dorothy’s room but didn’t truly leave Havenbrock City. Instead, he booked himself

another room in the same hotel

Thoughts about Verity Holdings Limited plagued him. His unease grew the more he mulled over it. After

much contemplation, he dialed Jeffrey’s number. Jeffrey didn’t pick up the first time he called. It was

some time later when Jeffrey called hack,

“You called?”

“Yeah, have you heard about Verity Holdings Limited going under?

Jeffrey was momentarily stunned “Wait, the Verity Holdings Limited in Haverbrook City

“Exactly! They went bust overnight!

“Weren’t they a rather big deal? I briefly looked into them before Their projects seemed to be doing

well, so how did they suddenly colapse?

That was exactly Lane’s query. “So, who do you think could have the power to topple such a large

corporation–evemight?”

Jeffrey wasn’t fool. He instantly caught Lane’s drill

Did Verity Holdings Limited cross paths with Dorothy?”

Indeed, their bess Hayden, spiked Dorothy’s drink. He landed to take advantage of her.”

Jeffrey understood instantly “Of all the people he could have messed with, he had to go after Dorothy

Lintally thought that the downfal of Verity Holdings Limited could be due to their own internal issues that

had suddenly erupted, but if Derathy is involved, everything makes sense”

Jeffrey knew all too well that Dorothy was Everetts Achilles heel. Who could tolerate ther most precious

treasure being tampered with?

“But how did he find out about Dorothy? Lane frowned. A sense of foreboding doom began to wash

over him.

Given the orcustances, it was clear that Everett hadn’t given up on Dorothy pet.

His opponent seemed to be nane uth an the towering Everest himself.

“I’m not quite certain Everett is constantly occupied with work at the company, and he has assigned me

countless tasks, so i wouldn’t be aware if he had any dealings with Dorothy currently”

“Does Everett have someone around Dorothy?”

“I’m not sure” Jeffrey was genuinely clueless; he wasn’t just playing dumb. When Dorothy rested on

divorcing Everest, I ran into her at the hospital. She mentioned that the doctors had told her that she

might not be able to conceive, I suspected that was why she was so adamant about the divorce, but

now in looks Ike things arent that simple since she got pregnant and had already given birth. Are you

sure that child is really Dorothy’s

Jeffrey distinctly remembered that Dorothy had made a special trip to the hospital due to this issue, and

the doctor had even suggested that she discuss it with her husband

Lane replied, The chid is herx”

And Everett’s 100

However, Lane was defintely not going to share the rest with him

“Then she must have found a cure later on Jeffrey was beng naive by not choosing to dele any deeper

into the matter. “Oh, Lane, there’s something else I need to tell you”

“Shoot”

“Everett is as in Havenbrook City. I think he’s there for Dorothy but he denies it.”

Lane shot up from his chair and asked, “He’s in Haverbrook Cty?”

“Yes! He has been frequenting Haverbrook City quite a bit ever since his divorce from Dorothy. I’ve

gotten used to it, but this time it doesn’t seem as simple. Lane, as a friend I must advise you not to

waste your time on Dorothy She’s a mystery, and she’s kept Everett hooked for all these years, so

please don’t get yourself entangled too.”

Lane wanted to tell him that it was already too late. He was already entangled
