Chapter 173

“You’m really pushing me into a comer here!

Her mother’s words sounded like a fairy tale to hel

Dorothy didn’t even know when her mother started measuring the solidity of relationships by money

The Lee Corporation wasnt just Everett’s; it’s the product of generations of the Lopez family’s hardwork. They simply felt impossible to transfer it into her name,

I’m just using this as an example to show you that no man will give up everything for you. They just talka big game if you asked Everett for all his possessions, he wouldn’t give them to you and he’d dumpyou in no time

“That’s because he would think I’m a greedy woman then Dorothy responded, feeling that any personwould instantly lose their good impression upon hearing such a inques!

That shouldn’t even be a cnteriont

To put it another way if she was Everett, she would also feel that the gil accepted him only because shewanted something in return.

There is no such thing as being greedy or not. A man’s heart is where his money is Bella glared at herdaughter sterly And stop calling me greedy. If I wanted to use you for money I wouldnt have refused themoney you got from a man to treat my illness even if it meant my death What I’m saying is, I want youto see clearly the gap between you and Everett and how impossible it is!”

“So no man can be trusted as you said I should just never get mamedor have a boyfriend in my wholelife!

“That’s not what I’m saying” Bela suddenly changed her tone think that Kenneth is a good choice!

Dorothy was taken aback by her mother’s sudden mention of Kenneth

“We’re just friends” the said, started

“But Kenneth likes you” Bells, having been through it all could tell that Kenneth was serious about herdaughter. If she had to pick a son–in-law right now she’d rather trust Kenneth than anyone else.

Just thinking about the haughty way Event’s mother had come to her made Bella shudder. She couldalready imagine the hardships her daughter would face if she married

A man might be able to protect her once or twice, but if his mother was always picking fights and badmouthing her their relationship wouldn’t last long.

With Everett as a CEC, there would be plenty of girls trying to seduce him. What would happen to herdaughter then?

Compared to that, at least Kenneths parents had been polite and genuinely liked Dorothy when theymet

“Mom, there’s no chance betninen Kenneth and me.”

“Then there’s even less chance between you and Everett, unless you wait until I’m dead”

‘Mom!‘

Tm going back to my hospital room. If you still believe in love, you don’t have to come anymore. Out ofsight, out of mind. I don’t want to see my daughter ending up like

ΠΗ

With that, Bella left her daughter behind and walked away, leaning on the wall for support.

Dorothy knew it would be hard to change her mother’s mind right away

She needed to think of another way. She couldn’t possibly break off her relationship with her motherbecause of Everett

Dorothy’s name had almost become taboo at the HQ of the Lopez Corporation

She was the only one who had been publicly fred on the groups official website and then had thedecision reversed.

That was very unusual.

After all, for an investment department assistant to be personally ordered to be fired by the chairmanwas news in itse

But to have the decision reversed by the CCD

That was simply shocking Even a fool could guess what was going on.

During the lunch break, two female colleagues couldn’t help but gossip about it.

“Do you think Dorothy has some dirt on our CED

” would believe it if it was someone else, but M? Loper? I dont buy it. He’s like a glaciet never showinginterest in women, and he’s very careful and serious about his work I dont think he’d tum any dirt.” Thefaller woman thought for a moment, then leaned in closer to her colleague and lowriedber mice. “But Ihave seen Dorothy She is quite

Put it this way. Dr. Loper could here any woman be warted if he wished bal
