Before the business card even reached Everett's hand, he averted his gaze.

"No need." He didn't want to remember anything about his visit to Everglow City, and that included the little girl. Once he'd made up his mind to forget, he planned to do just that.

The receptionist watched him leave and sighed heavily.

"Oh! | should have been bold enough to ask if he was single." Once Everett got in his car, he buried his nose in a contract from work. There had been a scandal at one of the branches. The CEO of the branch was caught in an affair. There were explicit photos of him with his secretary, causing the company’s stock to plummet. The projects that the branch had invested in were hanging in the balance, waiting for someone to clean up this mess.

His phone rang. It was Kevin. "Mr. Lopez, are you suggesting we replace the CEO or..." "He's disregarded the company image, acted out, and could face criminal charges. The Lopez Corporation can't keep him onboard." "Then who do you suggest should take his place?" This position, although seemingly lucrative, was actually quite challenging. Unless the new appointee could turn things around right away, not only would prior efforts be wasted, but the main branch of the Lopez Corporation would hold them accountable.

Mr. Lopez thought for a moment, then spoke with his thin lips barely moving. "His wife was a formidable leader before she retired to look after the family. Get in touch with her." "But she's in the middle of a divorce." Any woman would find it hard to tolerate such a scandal. Even if they had been leading separate lives and were aware of their partner's activities, they could turn a blind eye as long as it wasn't out in the open.

Now that the veil had been lifted, she would have to face it so she could preserve her own reputation and dignity.

"They have a child. What do you think a woman needs most after divorce?" "Money?" "That's why she desperately needs to gain control. Use this incident as her re-entry into the corporate world while gradually taking away the rights from her adulterous husband. And to reassure other shareholders and partners, she won't hesitate to do whatever it takes to turn things around.” At that point, all the Lopez Corporation has to do is lend a helping hand.

Kevin immediately responded, "I understand, Mr. Lopez. I'll send someone to hint at this to her right away, then call a shareholders’ meeting to elect a new CEO and invite her to participate.” "Good." Everett rubbed his temples. "No one knows about my return, right?" "No. The shareholders all think you're getting married abroad. Many business people have contacted me. They want to send you wedding gifts." "Don't refuse all of them. Accept some and find a way to return the favor." "Understood." After hanging up, Everett put away his phone.

He wanted to close his eyes and rest, but for some reason, he couldn't stop thinking about that adorable little girl. He had left so abruptly that he hadn't given her the five dollars and candy personally. He didn't even know her name.

He frowned slightly and sent Kevin a text.

[Kevin, are you heading to Everglow City for a business trip in the next few days?] [Yes. The resort project there is starting.] [Then go to room 908 in the Dreamscape Hotel and secretly take a picture of the little girl staying there. Ask her name.] He just wanted to forget Dorothy, that's all. It didn't concern anyone else. It felt like he was meant to meet that little girl, so at least he should know her name, right?
