FreeNovelDorothy didn’t say anything, which pretty much gave him his answer.
"I knew it. The name Dorothy seemed so familiar.” Dorothy knew she had to switch the topic. If he dug any deeper, he would have uncovered the scandalous events of that night! She definitely didn't want anyone to know about her arrangement with Everett. It would be best if everyone thought Everett was only being nice to her because they were classmates.
"Hey, Kevin, have a look at their patent registration..." The Lopez Corporation didn't just pretend to be charitable.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEvery batch of impoverished students they sponsored was carefully selected, and their situations were verified. They would also secretly investigate if there were any families more in need but not on the list.
If a student had parents with severe illnesses, Everett would pay extra attention to them, trying to ensure the student's studies wouldn't be affected.
At the end of the day, he was quite exhausted.
As soon as he got in the car back to Havenbrook City, he called Dorothy.
"Hello? Mr. Lopez." He knew Kevin was with her. "Hmm, | want to see the due diligence report you guys did today. Bring it to me tonight." "Okay." After hanging up, Everett rubbed his forehead just as Jeffrey called.
"You just dropped everything at the company and run off to Havenbrook City! So, did the girl cry her eyes out when she found out all the things you've done for her?" "She won't know." That also included why he hadn't followed her into the shop near the school gate. He was afraid the shopkeeper would have recognized him as the "young boy" who gave them money.
Sometimes Everett found himself to be quite ridiculous. Weren't his actions even more timid than Dorothy's cautiousness? "Our Mr. Lopez is so noble, huh? So, when are you planning to come back? I'm almost done here. Let's get Heather and have a good meal, and drink till we drop!" "We can eat. | don't drink." "Ha! It's not like you're the one who got yourself drunk!" Everett smirked and said, "I've never been drunk." When he arrived at the hotel, he went back to his suite alone.
He knew that Dorothy had booked a separate room to avoid raising Kevin's suspicion. She must have been in that room right now.

He opened the door and glanced at the documents in her hand, "You actually brought the report.” "I was worried Kevin might come looking for you." Everett smirked and started unbuttoning his shirt, revealing his muscular figure.
Caught off guard by his sudden undressing, Dorothy blushed and quickly turned around, "Um...are you going to take a shower?" Seeing her flustered and shy expression, Everett chuckled and took out a new set of pajamas from his suitcase.
He rummaged through the suitcase and asked, "Have you only brought one box?" "What?" "This." He walked to the bedside table and shook the empty little box.
There were contraceptives in it.
"Oh, yeah..." "Did we run out at home?" Dorothy steeled herself and shook her head, "No, | just thought you'd be tired from the trip." Who would've thought he'd use up all five in one night? Everett crossed his arms and looked at her, "So, what now?"
