Chapter 84

Kenneth was about to push it back, but Komen beat him to it. She snatched up the money and stuffed it

into his arms.

“Wright, he is going to take it then!”

“Huh?

Dorothy chuckled, got up with her phone in hand, Tm going to the restroom, you guys carry on.”

As she left, Kenneth looked at the wad of cash, helpless and frowning, “What does it mean if I take this

money?”

“You don’t understand Dorothy! She’s always super cautious and likes to keep track of every penny. If

you still want a future with her, you can’t be so hasty” Talking about her best friend, Karen seemed

helpless 100.

After all those years, her most vivid impression of Dorothy was that she was incredibly insecure

And yet she loved to put on a brave face.

“She’s in need of money right now, and her mom’s surgery is costly. Does she really need to be this

calculative? Kenneth realized Dorothy wasn’t the girl he imagined she was.

It seemed like she was always cutting ties, any kind of ties. As if she was afraid of getting too close and

100 intimate with anyone.

“Just take the money anyway Is it enoughs*

“More than mough. I didn’t spend much” Kenneth pulled out a few bills, “Give the rest back to her

“Okay”

Inside the restroom, Dorothy splashed cold water on her face to wake herself up

Maybe because she didn’t sleep the previous night, she felt lightheaded, as if she could faint anytime

Looking at her swollen and bruised lace in the minat Dorothy clenched her fists, suddenly pulled out

her phone, and dialed Everett’s

number!

She told herself she just wanted to talk about canceling the contact with Everett and nothing else

But as soon as she dialed the number, Dorothy held her breath

Until a voice came from the other end

“Hello, the number you dialed is powered off..

Riding on that momentum, Dorothy dialed Kevin’s number.

“Hey, Kevin, Im looking for Mr. Lopez”

“Mr. Loper? He’s already boarded the plane. I dropped him off at the airport. Now I’m on my way back.

You can send him a message on WhatsApp. Hell see it when he lands.”

Dorothy pursed her lips, “Can I know where he’s gone for his business trip?”

“Verdant City, for a technology development cooperation exchange meeting”

Everett was out of the country

Kevin finally sensed something was off in her tone, “Is it urgent?”

“No, not really Just heard he had a car accident. As an old classmate, I should show some concem”

She laughed with a hint of self mockery

“Oh, no need to worry. I just saw him, and he’s finel By the way, can you come to work normally

tomorrow?”

“Yes, see you tomorrow.”

“Okay”

Alter hanging up, Dorothy felt as if all the remaining strength in her body had been sucked out.

This was her last bit of courage.

Even Dorothy herself didn’t know if she had gotten through to Everell just now and heard his voice,

what would she have said?

Would she have explained why she and Kenneth were at the hospital together or directly discuss

canceling the contract, or just asked about his well–being?

Even then, standing in front of the mirror in the restroom, she felt relieved it didn’t get through!.

That way, she could have pretended that she never called and waited for Everett to take the initiative to

find her either to discuss the

contract or perhaps something else.
