0825.

The sight of these numbers made his stomach churn, and the person they brought to mind was someone he'd rather forget.

If he needed to start over, he had to completely let go of the past.

Even if he ever ran into Dorothy again, he would never go back. He just couldn't.

After a long day at the office, Dorothy grabbed a quick bite and headed back to her temporary hotel accommodations. The moment she parked her car, her phone buzzed with a call from Austin.

"I'll have the designer contact you soon." He said.

"Have her meet me at my hotel.” Dorothy paused for a moment before adding, "You didn't scold her, did you?" "No. | did as you asked. | had one of her friends at the office find out about it." "Good." Austin chuckled. "If you manage to sort this out, you'd be doing me a huge favor. This has been a thorn in my side for ages." "No need to thank me." Dorothy replied. "I'm just doing my job. If the resort project falls through, | won't get my bonus." After a bit of small talk with Austin, she hung up. Not long after, the doorbell to her hotel room rang.

Dorothy opened the door to find a petite young woman dressed in a white sundress.

"Hello, are you Ms. Sanchez?" "Yes, | am. Come in." Dorothy stepped aside to let her in.

The girl hesitated before entering. Her eyes were shivering with anxiety.

Just from that look, Dorothy knew the girl had an inkling as to why she was there.

She was young, fresh out of college, and desperate for money. Dorothy realized that she had seen this type before.

"What's your name?" Dorothy asked as she poured her a glass of water.

"Natalie." She accepted the water, but from her demeanor alone, anybody could tell how nervous she was.

"Don't worry. Yes, you've caused some damage by leaking the design blueprints, but the fact that I've asked to meet with you means I'm giving you a chance to fix things." Dorothy decided to cut straight to the chase. She didn't have time to play games with a newcomer.

Upon hearing this, Natalie's face fell. "I'm sorry! I'm really sorry! | regret it, but... | don't know how to fix it!" "But you were bold enough to ask for so much money. With such a large sum, | doubt you regretted anything at the time. At least, not until you realized you were caught.” Dorothy retorted, effectively cornering Natalie.

Natalie was speechless.

"Think about it. | don't want to waste my time on someone who can't be honest with me. If you're planning to play games, you can leave. The company will sue you and demand you pay damages." Natalie's face turned ghastly pale. She couldn't even drink the water in her hand.

"No, no, | swear I'm being honest! Please, Ms. Sanchez, give me a chance to make things right. It was a momentary lapse in judgment. | promise.” She was almost ready to kneel before Dorothy.

This was exactly the reaction Dorothy wanted. She was no longer the Ms. Sanchez from her days at the Prosperity Consortium.

Now, she wielded enough power and intimidation to make anyone think twice.
