StarNovelThe person in charge at W&C Investments Inc. was a woman. In the business world, although no one wanted to ignite a gender war, it was true that men dominated the high-ranking positions.
Upon seeing her, Dorothy finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She wasn't from the Lopez Corporation.
"Hello, Ms. Sanchez. I'm Lavinia, the manager in charge of this project at W&C Investments Inc." Lavinia smiled and extended her hand upon seeing Dorothy.

"I used to work at the headquarters of the Lopez Corporation.” Dorothy was at a loss for words.
Sensing Dorothy's tension, Lavinia laughed and explained, "Don't worry, it's just that you were quite memorable because of your stunning looks." "I was just an assistant at the Lopez Corporation.” "But there are no incompetent people working at The Lopez Corporation." Lavinia seemed to have more to say, but let the topic drop.
Dorothy wondered how much this woman knew.
Thankfully, during her time at the Lopez Corporation, other than the issue with Heather causing some stir, not many knew about her marriage to Everett.
She had never seen nor heard of Lavinia at the Lopez Corporation, which meant she likely didn't hold a central role.
"Let me give you a tour of the site and show you our design blueprints.” "Sounds good." Lavinia nodded as her gaze swept over Dorothy's face once more.
She really was beautiful.
Her features weren't striking, but they were pleasing to the eye. She was youthful and radiant, and she emanated an aura of purity.
Dorothy led Lavinia around the site, introducing her to the unique features of Everglow City.

The moment she walked in the door, Abigail threw herself into her arms. Her voice was so soft and adorable that it could melt your heart.
"Mommy! Mommy! | missed you so much!" Dorothy crouched down to hug her and kiss her cheek. "Mommy missed you too." Karen walked over from behind, slowly squinting her eyes into a genuine smile. "You know, when | took Abigail out, so many people came over to see her. They all said she looks like a little star.” "Karen, try not to let her be seen in public as much as possible.” Dorothy was worried that someone from the Lopez Corporation might recognize Abigail.
After all, Austin had compared Abigail's face to Everett's, and, sadly, he wouldn't be the only one.
"It's been years, and Everett is getting married now. Even if he found out, he wouldn't do anything. He might even pretend not to know you. He might be worried about you asking him for money." Karen had seen the news of Everett's upcoming wedding. So she couldn't help but roll her eyes querulously. "He pretended to be so in love back then, and now he's marrying someone else?! Men really can't be trusted.” "Karen." Dorothy interrupted her. "It's been three years, and | was the one who initiated the breakup.” It was normal for him to move on.
It was true that when she saw the news of Everett's upcoming wedding, she felt a strange mix of emotions.
But she had let it go.
The decision to break up back then was hers, so what was there to be upset about now? They belonged to different worlds.
He was just returning to his normal life.
