Chapter 91
Before Corothy could utter another word, Everett had already hung up
It felt like their relationship had suddenly returned to the whole boss and secretary dynamis
It made sense. He was back with Heather. What place could she, the stand–in, have possibly held?
After shutting down her computer, Dorothy took a shower, and changed into her pajamas but then found herself lying in bed, unable to sleep.
She was tossing and turning, yet sleep eluded her.
It was already the early hours of the morning, and if she didn’t get some shut eye soon, it would have been time for work!
Dorothy closed her eyes tightly, but no matter what, she just didn’t feel sleepy, so she reluctantly got up and rebooted her computer to continue werking.
Just as she logged onto the company software she noticed that Everett was still online.
Was he also not sleeping?
After staring at the screen for a while, it suddenly occured to Dorothy that Everett was abroad, with a time difference. It was aflemoon for him at that time
She tugged at her lips, a self–mocking smile playing on her face
She was seriously getting ahead of herself, ever bathenng about the buss’s every move!
Dorothy archived all the data of Genesis Creations Inc. and then handed over all the projects related to Kenneth to Kevin.
As for Everett’s decision, she had no complaints
She understood that after considering all aspects, he felt she was not competent or prone to emars, so he asked her to hand it over
But his cold and calculated analysis and decision, devoid of any trace of emotion, made Dorothy feel estranged.
Everett was still the high and mighty hoss, holding the power of Ele and death over the entire company as if the gentle and considerate him from before was a figment of her imagination, and the cold him was the real deal
Early the next morning. Dorothy had to go to work with dark circles under her eyes due to a sleepless night
Thank God for foundation, which could somest at conceal them, along with the smal wound on her face
saw you handed over the new car development project to me. Are you upset with Mr. Loper?” Kevin came over as soon as he saw her. Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
Dorothy shook her head, “Mr. Lopez said at yesterday’s meeting that I’m too emotional and can’t objectively handle the project. Handing it over is a good thing. Otherwise, if the company suffers a loss because of me, fil be the villain”
Kevin laughed of her comment. “You don’t have to think like that. Mr Lopez is quite fair. I’ve been working with him for years, and I’ve never seen him target anyone. Every decision he makes is well thought out.”
Every decision?
Did that include their absurd contract?
“Don’t worry, I really have no ulterior motives. I’m just grateful to be working in the head office.”
“That’s good. I was afraid you didn’t understand Mr. Lopez’s personality and held grudges against him! And you don’t have to rush. Since you brought this project to the company, if it succeeds, I’m sure you’ll get your share of the credit”
“You really don’t have to explain all this. I understand.”
Kevin nodded and said with a smile, “All right, you get back to work I’ll handle this project. You can rest assured, fil communicate well with the other party”
Dorothy gawean CK sign and then sat back down at her desk.
Beep beep.
Her phone on the side beeped indicating unread messages
She quickly picked it up and unlocked it.
I was a message from Bella [You and Kenneth rust come with me for my surgery this weekend!
Dprothy frowned
Mom, he’s swamped]
(Don’t make excuses! I just called him, and he said he’s free this weekend.
