Chapter 57
Back to the Lopez family’s home?
Dorothy’s first thought was the message Heather sent to Everett
“Is it a good idea for me to go with you?”
Her status made it quite awkward.
“There’s nothing wrong with it. You’re just there to accompany me. If you don’t want to get out of the car you can wait for me.”
Hearing that his intention was really just to “accompany him and there was no need for her to step in, Dorothy finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“All right, give me a heads up the day before so I can arrange my work.”
Everett nodded, seeing her relax from her high–strung state, he wasn’t sure whether bringing her to the Lopez family so hastily was the right thing to do.

She always spoke in a straightforward and direct manner, not giving the other party any room for imagination
Soon, Kenneth sent Dorothy an address.
After a few days together Dorothy felt that she got along well with Kevin, who seemed grumpy but was indeed warm–hearted. Both were focused on work, sharing a common goal.

“I have to make a trip to the Bureau of Industry and Commerce, and I can’t go with you! You also need to be back before four since there are some confirmation documents for you to communicate with the legal department.”
Dorothy gave an OK sign, tidied up a bit, and took a taxi to the appointed place.
On the way, she occasionally looked out the window, thinking Havenbrook City had really changed! The old rundown houses were almost all demolished, replaced by skyscrapers.
Though she didn’t have any particular attachment to the place, it was after all the city she was bom in, where she spent the most important student days of her life.
Looking at it then, the bitter days in the past didn’t seem so deeply etched in memory.

Sometimes she really wanted to ask Everett what exactly was the misunderstanding and problem between him and Heather, why he had to torment her and drag her into it.
Walking into the restaurant in a complicated mood, Dorolly found Kenneth was already waiting for her.
Different from his usual conservative and old–fashioned dress, today he wore white sportswear, looking young and energetic, but the gold–rimmed glasses on his nose still revealed his scholarly aura.
“Order anything you want.” Kenneth pushed the menu directly to her.
Dorothy waved her hand, “No, I’ve already eaten.”
“So, shall we get straight to the point?”
She nodded, ‘Sure. Shoot!”
Kenneth coughed, paused, took a deep breath, and then started, “Do you think i’m suitable to be your boyfriend?
“Huh?”
