There was no way that Dorothy was buying that.

"Don't be so guarded around me, will you? I'm not a venomous creature. What harm could | possibly do?" Lane sounded very hurt.

He was genuinely trying to pursue a romantic relationship with this lady.

"I know you won't hurt me." But he sure could make things difficult for her.

"Didn't we make a deal? | chase, and you just give me a chance. That means | should at least be able to show myself off a bit, right?" Lane was also feeling a bit frustrated with her attitude.

Even if he was not the best, he didn't think he was appalling enough to be despised by a lady to this extent.

"| just don't want to hold you back." "No worries, you won't." Lane hung up immediately after saying that. He was afraid she might say something else to infuriate him.

Dorothy stared at her phone screen and let out a sigh.

By dusk, Dorothy's two assistants had arrived in Havenbrook City.

Being a leader herself, she didn't dive straight into business discussions with her assistants but instead took them to a local diner.

"This is so delicious! I've been to Havenbrook City before but never knew they had such amazing food." Her assistant, Natalia, praised the food enthusiastically after taking a bite.

"If it's good, eat up." Dorothy chuckled and pushed the dish closer to her.

Her other assistant, Emmett, appeared to be more reserved. As the only male at the table and being new to Dorothy, he didn't dare speak or act too much.

"Miss Sanchez, I've organized the documents you gave me. Would you like to take a look later?" "Let's eat first. I'l find you guys back at the hotel. Traveling for work is hard, so let's fill up our bellies first." Dorothy smiled at Emmett. A friendly gesture might put him at ease.

Emmett nodded and finally picked up his fork.

Dorothy's assistants were both highly educated, but they were fairly new to the workforce.

Sometimes, when she looked at them, she saw herself when she first started at the Prosperity Consortium.

"Miss Sanchez, are you a local of Havenbrook City?" "Yes, | grew up here." Dorothy admitted it readily. She had grown to accept this place now.

Because no matter what kind of awful memories lingered here, it was still her hometown.

"So how did you end up at East Star Enterprises? Most people here usually go to Eldorria City to make a living. Didn't you consider applying to the Lopez Corporation?" Natalia, who was naive and guileless, didn't realize that Dorothy froze for a moment when she mentioned the Lopez Corporation.

"I never had the opportunity.” "With your work capability, not going to the Lopez Corporation is their loss! You have no idea but while you were away on business in Everglow City, several headhunters were asking for your contact info. Some even called me." Dorothy chuckled. "That's their job. It's not because I'm exceptional.” "If you were not exceptional, why would they headhunt you? Why aren't they headhunting me?!" As soon as Natalia said this, Emmett discreetly pulled at her sleeve.

Dorothy noticed their little interaction and waved her hand. "It's okay. Don't be nervous, Emmett. It's your first time traveling with me, so it's normal to not feel accustomed. You don't have to be so formal in the future." "Exactly! Miss Sanchez is the best boss in the world." Natalia gave her a thumbs up while still munching her food.

"Let's eat. We'll talk about work later when we get back. Don't shortchange yourself on this business trip. The company will cover all expenses." Dorothy continued trying to help Emmett relax.
