"Kenneth, we're just friends." Kenneth let out a bitter laugh, "You're so brutal." "It's the truth! Look, Kenneth, you should move on and find someone new. I'm not a catch, and I'm definitely not worth all this fuss," Dorothy said, clenching her fists as if to muster her courage. "Even if I do get remarried, it won't be with you." With those final words, she hung up the phone just as a yellow cab pulled up to the curb.

Dorothy waved it down and slid into the back seat. As the cab drove off, a single bouquet of roses lay forgotten on the sidewalk.

Everett saw Dorothy's message on Whatwhile he was reviewing scontracts. He set his phone aside without replying.

There was too much to sort out before he could even think about heading back home, or else he'd be flying back across the pond within days.

When he finally got around to calling her back, all he got was a busy signal.

Kevin walked in, holding a stack of papers and shooting Mr. Lopez a stealthy glance. The tension was palpable. "Mr. Lopez." Everett looked up, his gaze fixing on Kevin for a few seconds, which was enough to make Kevin's skin crawl.

"Did you not understand what I told you?" Everett asked.

"Of course, sir! You mean about...?" Kevin hedged.

"I told you not to discuss my business with Dorothy." Kevin grimaced, knowing this was going to cback and bite him.

"But sir, you refuse to get that shot, and I'm at my wit's end here! You've already cut your business trip to Liberty City from ten days to three and started work at the crack of dawn. And now you've crammed it into two days, barely getting three hours of sleep!" If Everett kept this up, he just couldn't tell if this man would die unexpectedly or not.

How could anyone survive on three hours of sleep, let alone manage meetings, negotiations, contracts, and still find tto play with his kids? Everett was pushing the limits of human endurance.

"I can't sleep anyway. I need to get back, there's a ton to do at headquarters." "Right, all for Ms. Sanchez..." "What was that?" Everett didn't quite catch Kevin's mumbling.

"Nothing! Are you sure you want to cancel the doctor's appointment? You could go over the contracts while you're getting the shot. It doesn't have to delay treatment!" Everett frowned.

"I know it won't keepfrom going over the contracts. But I could have a meeting during that time," he mused.

"Well, I've already informed Ms. Sanchez. If you don't show up and she asks, I have to tell the truth. M can't lie to her!" There was a pause from Everett before Kevin added, "Shall I go then, Mr. Lopez?" He started for the door.

Everett coughed and lowered his voice, "No need to cancel." "Great! I'l arrange the car." Just as Kevin was about to leave, Everett called out to him again. "Did you find out what I asked you to look into?" Kevin's eyes darted as he remembered, "Yes! I had the lobby surveillance checked and got in touch with the delivery man who sent the flowers. The bouquet was so huge that the guy remembered it well. He picked it up from Delight Flower Shop on Unity Avenue." Everett's brow furrowed, "Get to the point." "I called the shop. The owner said the person who ordered the flowers didn't request a card, so she doesn't know who it was. But they left a phone number." Kevin handed Everett the number he had scribbled down. Everett immediately opened Whatand searched for the number's associated account.

The npopped up instantly-Kenneth.

"When's the next flight back home?" Kevin thought for a moment, "There should be one around 3:30 || "Book it " "What?" Everett's gaze was stern, his jaw set, "Book the flight, I'm heading back to Eldorria City today." S'ah th Find@ovel. et website on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality. X
