"No, don't touch that project. | don't want anyone else on it either." Kevin was finding Mr. Lopez's instructions increasingly baffling. But if he insisted, there had to be a reason.
"Alright, rest assured. I'll keep a close eye on it." Kevin continued to report his research findings. "Also, the person you referred to me, a certain Emmett, is a project assistant at East Star Enterprises. He's a recent recruit. He’s a bright graduate from an elite university." "Is he single?" Kevin hadn't anticipated Mr. Lopez wanting him to investigate that.
At first, when he saw Emmett's profile, he assumed Mr. Lopez was considering poaching him for the Lopez Corporation.
"I believe so." After all, the guy was still quite young. He was only a few years out of college. It was unlikely he'd already be married.

He thought back to the previous night, when he saw them together. Seeing them together alone stirred up an inexplicable sense of displeasure in him.
Wasn't Dorothy supposed to be with Kenneth? Why was Emmett now in the picture? Everett had clearly heard the pair discussing returning to the hotel together.
The more he thought about it, the more irked he felt. He sent Dorothy a message.
[Ms. Sanchez, I'm sorry, but I've gotten lost again. Can you take a call?] She responded in no time.
[I'm sorry, | can't right now. I'm at a restaurant discussing business over dinner. Can it wait?] Everett replied instantly. [With a man?] He realized too late that he shouldn't have asked that. Just as he was about to delete the message, it was clear that Dorothy had already seen it.
[Yes, why?] Why? She actually asked why?! Everett felt a throbbing in his temples.
Had she not learned her lesson from before? She was daring to dine with a man for business matters again? This time, Everett didn't beat around the bush with Kevin and called him directly. "Find out which restaurant Dorothy is at.” "Ms. Sanchez is in Havenbrook City?" "Yes." Kevin suddenly understood it all.
His boss had been acting secretive these past few days, leaving Kevin puzzled. It seemed it was all because of Ms. Sanchez.
His recent instructions had been rather strange.

The driver had disappeared after asking his question.
Why was he curious about the gender of her business partner? Could it be that he saw her? With that thought in mind, she scanned the room.
She didn't spot any familiar faces.
"Ms. Sanchez?" Gabriel poured her a glass of wine and interrupted her trance.
Dorothy quickly smiled. "I'm sorry; I'm a lightweight. I'm feeling a little tipsy after just one glass." Upon hearing this, Emmett immediately reached for her wine glass. "I'll drink for you for the rest of the evening." "l was bonding with Ms. Sanchez. Who are you?" Gabriel's face instantly fell. It was clouded over with displeasure.
Dorothy didn't want to upset anyone from Verity Holdings Limited on her first day.
So, she picked up her glass and proposed a toast. "Don't be upset. He's just worried that I'll have a headache if | drink too much.
They're very protective of me at the office. Please don't take it personally. Here, this one's to you."
