Chapter 291

Although Heather was unsure whether Everett had reconnected with Dorothy, she knew all too well the

sway Dorothy had over him.

She hoped that whoever was by Everett’s side was anyone but Dorothy

Any other woman would be easier to deal with than Dorothy. It wasn’t that Dorothy was particularly

talented or powerful, but rather that Everett was deeply invested in and in love with her.

Heather was certain that Everett would never pour as much time and effort into another woman in his

lifetime. So, as long as it was not Dorothy she was not concerned.

After glancing at her wristwatch, she realized it was about time for her to leave.

Heather changed into a sharply tailored business suit that accentuated her aura of competence and

authority. She was ready to return to Florria City and the Lopez Corporation. She had to assert her

power and make it clear who the real winner was

Inside the Lopez Corporation’s boardroom, Everett was engrossed in a project update from the

investment department manager. His brow would furrow from me to time, signaling his dissatisfaction,

which his assistant would promptly note.

Dressed in a custom tailored black suit, he sat silently in the chair of honor listening to the report. His

silence caused a wave of fear among the team. They were scared of making any mistakes that might

upset the CEO.

“Knock, knock,”

The sudden sound of knocking disrupted the stence in the boardroom.

“Come in Everet: uttered his first words of the day.

The door swung open, revealing Kevin

He walked straight over to Everett, leaned down, and whispered. Your father has appointed Heather as

the chief legal counsel of the Lopez Corporation. The HR department just received the notice, and

Heather will be here to take up her post in half an hour.”

Everest’s handsome face turned grim

He knew his parents wouldn’t sit idle. They were bound to make a move.

Tell HR to ignore it. Business as usual.

“What about, Heathers office?

The office of the chief legal counsel was independent. Since Heather’s resignation, their legal affairs

had been handed over to other lawyers, and the office had been handed over as well.

in an awkward position.

Now that Heather was parachuting back in as the chief legal counsel, the existing head of the legal

department would be in a

Kevin immediately nodded understand.”

After he left, the meeting resumed

It wasnt until the report was over that Everett coldly said, ‘Is this the best due diligence you can do for

the project? You can’t even give me a precise revenue rate. Do you expect me to do the due diligence

for your project?”

“Mr. Lopez, give us some time. We will surely.”

“This project is suspended indefinitely.” Everett didn’t Isten to his explanation. He stood up and said.

“Meeting adjourned.”

The manager in charge of the project was stunned. He tried to catch up with Everett

“Mr. Lopez, Mr. Lopez, hear me out! The meeting was too sudden this time. I have already sent people

to do the due diligence. The precise data will be available soon it will be accurate.”

Normally, Everett would ignore such pleas.

But this time, he paused, looked the project manager up and down, and said in a low voice, “There are

countless projects vying for investment from the Lopez Corporation every day. I don’t have time to give

this project a second chance.”
