Everett clearly didn't want to hear her out. She could see that his eyebrows were furrowed in irritation.

"Do you think Dorothy likes you?" Heather suddenly threw this question at him.

He pursed his lips. "That's got nothing to do with this." "How is it not? It is! She clearly has no feelings for you, yet she could sign a contract with you for money. She basically sold herself for marriage. What else wouldn't she sell?" "Heather!" This was the first time in all the years they'd known each other that Everett had called her name with such sternness.

The atmosphere in the car turned icy, and neither of them spoke.

Heather turned her head to look out the window. She tried hard to stay calm, not wanting to start a real argument with Everett at this time.

"Drive away from here first. Amanda is probably still watching from behind. We can't let her see that we disagree.” Heather's tone was pleading, and her posture had become low.

Everett glanced in the rear-view mirror.

Sure enough, Amanda was still standing at the entrance of the mansion, watching them.

"Everett, before we have solid evidence, can you please stay neutral? Don't judge me so quickly; I'm begging you." The usually proud Heather now spoke with a tremble in her voice. She seemed to be on the verge of tears.

Heather's request was reasonable.

Currently, Dorothy had no evidence to prove that Heather was involved.

Everett didn't give her a response. Instead, he stepped on the gas and drove away from the mansion.

Dorothy arrived at the Prosperity Consortium with the evidence she had found, accompanied by Karen.

Upon seeing her, Mr. Percy quickly stormed over. "Found any evidence?" "I recovered the message she sent me. Have a look." Dorothy handed him her phone.

The message only contained an email address, and the phone number was now out of service.

"This crap proves that Ms. Heather framed you?" Mr. Percy raised an eyebrow in disbelief.

This sounded like a fairy tale, didn't it? The CEO of SinoSuccess Enterprises had personally come to ask for clarification on this matter, putting Mr. Percy under immense pressure similar to Dorothy's.

"But it was indeed Heather who called me at the time. She said she urgently needed the core technical blueprint. | questioned why she needed them, but she said the project would be impacted if she didn't get them, so | gave them to her." Dorothy was speaking the complete truth.

She had trusted Heather's loyalty to the Lopez Corporation and believed she wouldn't betray the company.

"Who would believe this story you've spun?" Mr. Percy's face changed tically, and he threw the phone back at her.

"Dorothy, can you think before you speak? Don't just spout nonsense if you want to drag someone down with you! That's Heather, the chief lawyer of the Lopez Corporation. What would she gain from framing an assistant like you? Are you sure she doesn't just find you annoying?!" "I think it might be because... I've been working at the HQ of the Lopez Corporation lately and have been getting close to Mr.

Lopez. She's jealous.” "Ms. Heather suspects you of seducing Mr. Lopez?" "How ridiculous!" Mr. Percy was speechless. He couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Who are you? Who is Heather? Is there any comparison between you two? Dorothy, do | need to remind you of Ms. Heather's status and identity?" Karen, who had been standing by, was not pleased with his attitude.

"What do you mean? Just because she's richer than Dorothy, is whatever she does justified? That's discrimination!" "Who the hell do you think you're talking to?" Mr. Percy immediately started cursing at her. "Karen, no one wants to sort this out more than | do right now! As long as you provide concrete evidence that Ms. Heather framed Dorothy, I'll believe anything! Even if you say it was Mr. Lopez who framed Dorothy, I'll believe it! Where's the evidence? Bring it!"
