Everett hardly ever spoke that way in private, which meant he was dead set.

"Thanks, Mr. Lopez." Once at the Lopez Corporation, Everett headed straight for the conference room.

Dorothy felt like all he did these days was attend never-ending meetings.

She headed straight for Kevin with her bag.

After seeing him, she finally understood why his style of conversation sounded so familiar. Wasn't he the one who had blocked her from entering when she had gone to see Everett for a contract in Fujinon City? "Ms. Sanchez." Kevin didn't seem surprised at all. It seemed like he already knew who she was.

"You don't have to be so formal. Just call me Dorothy.” She was here to learn, or, in layman's terms, to be tutored by Kevin. She couldn't have him keep calling her Ms. Sanchez.

This took Kevin aback a little.

"No. It was Mr. Lopez himself who asked me to look after you, so I'll keep calling you Ms. Sanchez." Kevin had been with Everett for many years and had never seen any woman close to him, not even the chief lawyer, Heather.

Now, suddenly, he was asked to look after this girl. She must be special.

At least in Mr. Lopez's eyes, she was something else.

Unable to convince him and unable to explain her relationship with Everett, Dorothy simply nodded. "Well, I'll be counting on you then. I'm new to the field, so | might need your guidance, but | can handle criticism. If | make a mistake, just let me know and I'll correct it." Kevin had never seen a girl who was willing to lower her stance like this. It was quite a surprise.

He had thought she would be some spoiled rich girl when he received the instructions from Mr. Lopez. After all, she was backed by Mr. Lopez.

With this, his fondness for Dorothy increased rapidly.

"How about | show you around the project department first? And your office.” "Sure. Thanks for your help." After a tour of the headquarters with Kevin, she got a general idea of the layout. As she stood on the observation deck at the top of the Lopez Building and looked at the luxurious building and the entire Lopez Corporation landscape in Eldorria City, she genuinely felt impressed by Everett.

It wasn't about his wealth, but more about his capabilities and dedication to work.

Despite owning so much property and status, he was still fighting on the front line. He was busy as hell, working overtime and burning the midnight oil more often than she did.

No wonder he had been named Outstanding Young Entrepreneur of the country multiple times. He was truly a role model in the industry.

After the tour, Dorothy dove straight into work.

The work atmosphere here was much more intense than at the Prosperity Consortium. Everyone was glued to their screens, with hardly any casual glances around.

Although she was exhausted by the end of the day, she felt oddly satisfied.

When it was time to knock off, Dorothy tidied up her desk, confirmed her flight to Havenbrook with Kevin for the next day, and was about to leave when Everett's call came in right on time.

She even suspected Everett had put surveillance in her office.

"Come to the place we met this morning." "Are you done for the day too?" "Yeah. | have an overseas project meeting at one in the morning. | can do it from home." Dorothy hummed in agreement, hung up the phone, and headed straight for the underground parking lot. She was all smiles until she saw Heather standing next to Everett from a distance.

Well...

Since she had come to the headquarters, such scenes would become pretty common.
