Chapter 334

Tve got no chance with her. She wouldn’t give Everett the time of day so what hope do I have?‘

1 see your point”

After a short conversation with Jeffrey Lane hung up the phone Heimmediately reached out to Austin.

He ordered him to tell Dorothy that there was an urgent matter back in Everglow City that required her

attention

Everett was also in Haverbrook City and he couldnt afford to give him any opportunities to approach

Dorothy.

As he was about to leck his phone, his eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of a number saved

onhsphone.

It was Heather’s number, which he stole from Jeffrey’s phone. But he didn’t dial it.

It wasnt time to play his last card yes. He didn’t want to escalate things.

When Austin called, Dorothy was still worried about the driver She wanted to meet with him as soon as

possible to figure out what had happened and how her drug had been neutralized,

“Dorothy, Everglow City needs you. When can you return?”

Tve almost finished up here. so probably in a day or two Lane is also in Havenbrook City now, let me

check with him.”

“Wright!”

After hanging up the phone, Dorothy once again found that the driver had not yet responded to her.

The longer she kept waiting, the more restless she became.

Finally, she received his missäge

[How about we meet at Harvest Restaurant at 7 pm tonight?)

Sounds good ill bring your receipt]

She quickly got herself ready, making sure to put the receipt in her purse.

As she stepped out of her hotel room, she saw Lane standing around the corner smoking a cigarette

Upon seeing Dorothy, Lane extinguished his cigarette and naked towards her. Did you have a good

rest?”

“Yeah”

“What are you up to? Lane examined her from head to toe, noticing that she was clearly dressed for an

outing.

Tm meeting a friend who helped me out last night Im treating him to dinner as a thank you”

Lane laughed Her Trend must be one of Everell’s men

Otherwise, how could he have known about these things and moved against Verity Holdings Limited

even before he did?

Mind if I tag along? Id like to thank your friend too

Dorothy paused and frowned slightly I dont think that’s a good idea. He doesn’t even know you‘

We can get to know each other then! After all, he did me a huge favor too. The people from Venty

Holdings Limited might have tried to harm you. Your friend stopped them in time, so I must express my

gratitude.”

Dorothy didn’t want to bring Lane along.

Mainly because this was only her second meeting the driver. What would he think if she brought Lane

along?

“He’s from Cverglow City. You can meet him there if you get a chance. It’s not convenient for me to

bring you along tonight”

“Then let me give you a lift Lane didn’t push any further He was mainly interested in finding out who

this person was. He needed to know his enemy.

“I can just order a cal

“I’ve got nothing to do. Why take a cab? Are you worried that I might do something to you?”

“Ainght then “Dorothy didn’t want to argue with Lane Tight now, all she wanted was to meet the dryer

and find out what happened the night before

Lane drove her to the restaurant. Since was not yet the agreed–upon me, Dorothy didnt get out of the

car Instead, she discussed some work matters

with Lane
