In the hushed conference room of the Lopez Corporation, managers and shareholders maintained tense silence, cautious not to disturb Mr. Lopez, who engaged in playful banter over the phone.

When the call ended, Kevin dared to clear his throat softly and spoke, “Mr. Lopez, next up is the report from Team Four.” “Alright.” Everett nodded, leaning back slightly in his chair, the cold, serious expression returning to his handsome face. “Go ahead.” Dorothy freshened up, slipping into a set of neutral-colored clothes, not wanting to stand out too much on her first day back at the office.

It was as if she was itching for everyone to know who she was.

Grabbing her car keys, she was about to step out when her phone buzzed with a call from Karen.

“Hey, Karen.” “Jeffrey said he wants to get together for dinner before you two head off to Swevia Country! The last couple of times were... well, a bit eventful, so this time, no kids, just the four of us. I'd love to catch up.” Dorothy glanced at the time. “I'm on my way to the Lopez Corporation now. Everett's still tied up in a meeting. Once he wraps up, I'll check with him and get back to you. Not sure what his plans are for the rest of the day.” “Cool, just let me know!” Karen chuckled, “Jeffrey's stuck at his office too.” “In a meeting?” “Yep! Got called in first thing in the morning.” Dorothy’s mouth twitched slightly.

When she had been on the phone with Everett earlier, Jeffrey surely wasn't part of the same meeting, was he? The very thought made her scalp tingle! Upon reaching the Lopez Corporation, Dorothy was stopped at the entrance. Since she wasn't driving Everett's Maybach today, the security guard needed to verify her identity before nodding her through.

It was peak office hours, and the underground parking was full.

After circling around with no luck, Dorothy boldly decided to park in the CEO's reserved spot - the most spacious, conveniently located near the executive elevator.

With no one in sight, she felt free to indulge in this breach without the fear of being seen.

Dorothy made her way straight to the CEO's office once upstairs.

She keyed in the security code with practiced ease and had barely stepped in when a message from Everett pinged on her phone.

[Wait for me in my office. Wrapping up soon.] [How did you know | was coming to your office?] Yesterday, he had heard the door, which wasn't strange, but today, she hadn't alerted anyone! [There are cameras in the elevator.] Well, that explained it! The man was even checking the elevator cameras during a meeting! [Mr. Lopez slacks off at work too, huh?] She sent the teasing message and soon got a reply from Everett.

[Only for you.] Her cheeks flushed instantly! Scenes from the previous night, not suitable for the faint-hearted, began to intrude into her thoughts, impossible to shake off.

Dorothy cracked open the office window, letting the cool breeze in to temper the heat on her face.

From this vantage point, the view of Eldorria City was breathtaking, making everything else seem insignificant by comparison.

To think that she, of all people, could stand here and be intimately involved with the CEO of the Lopez Corporation—it was a dream too big to even dream! Before long, Everett concluded his meeting.

He returned to his office, and the moment he opened the door, he saw the small figure by the window, his lips curving in an involuntary smile.

Dorothy heard him and turned around, smiling back. “Meeting’s over?” “Yeah.” He shed his suit jacket and strode over to her, wrapping his arms around her from behind. “What's on your mind?” “It feels like I'm dreaming.” Dorothy answered honestly, nestled in his embrace.
