StarNovelChapter 441
Dorothy faltered her grip, nearly sending her coffee mug crashing to the floor.
Why was he bringing this up now?
Was it his other test?
“That little girl looked so much like you, especially those piercing eyes.” Everett reminisced, recalling
how he’d noticed her instantly.
What an inexplicable destiny of kinship!
He’d never been fond of children, not averse to them, but not keen e
either. Yet, for som
some reason, he was drawn to that little girl.
At this, Dorothy lost her appetite and set down her mug. “Just spit it out, what do you mean?”
“Nothing serious, Everett replied, looking up with an innocent expression that suddenly highlighted the

“Please don’t misunderstand. I went to Everglow City for work, not to track you down. The resort project
there is quite impressive. Since you left Lopez Enterprises, your career has taken off. Im happy for
you.”
Dorothy, thinking he had no ulterior motive, was about to relax when Everett dropped a bombshell.
“By the way, I ended up buying some candy for that little girl, and her mom even had the front desk
pass me her business card! I have to look for it later, it should be in my briefcase.”
Dorothy choked on her breath, nearly leaping from her chair!
The man who bought Abigail candy was Everett?!
It was him?!
She couldn’t have dreamed of such a coincidence. Their paths had crossed without her knowing!
“Are you okay there? Everett handed her a napkin, feigning ignorance of the panic flickering in her eyes
“I’m fine! Mr. Lopez, please hurry up with your meal. As he mentioned looking for the business card,
she squirmed with discomfort. Tim really eager to meet with Byte 71”
Everett raised an eyebrow. “So eager you can’t even spare a moment for me to find a card?”
“Yes!”
How could she let Everett find that card?
The moment he called the number or rather, he wouldn’t even need to call before finding her name on
that card!
“Wright, I’ll just change my clothes, and then we can leave”
He didn’t tease her any further, wiped his mouth with a napkin, and retreated to the bedroom.
Truth be told, there was no business card.
He hadn’t taken it that day because he had made up his mind to forget Dorothy and leave Everglow
City. When the receptionist of the front desk handed him the card, his heart was heavy, and his mind
was troubled.
if only he could turn back time, he would hold that little girl tighter and tell her how much he loved her

Or perhaps go back to when Dorothy confessed her love for Kenneth, he would never believe it.
However, there was no its.
Dorothy followed Everett into the cat, and he drove her to a secluded suburb in Eldoria City.
If it had been anyone else taking her there, Dorothy would have been frightened.
Finally, the car stopped in front of an old, standalone villa.
Dorothy got out and looked up, shielding her eyes from the glaring sun to get a clear view of the three–

“Byte 7 is here?”
“Yes.” Everett confirmed with a nod
Dorothy reached into her bag, gripping the hard drive that held the surveillance footage, then turned to
Evervil. “You can go now I need to meet with turn alone”
Everett swept over her bag, pressing his lips into a thin line. He said in a porous and stern voice, “No
matter how much my parents favor Heather, I won’t cover for her”
He thought she had evidence to incriminate Heather
