Chapter 1373

As if to ensure no one doubted his word, he threw a knowing look at Everett.

"Right, Everett?"

But Everett just turned to Dorothy and said, "Believe me, there's nothing going on between us."

Silence.

And then laughter filled the room.

Finally, at Karen's insistence, Everett and Dorothy agreed to host a feast. They all went out for a hearty dinner that night.

It wasn't until they were on their way back to Bay Residence that Dorothy remembered about Perdita.

The day had been so full of twists and turns that she had completely forgotten about her.

Stealing a glance at Everett, who was driving, Dorothy cleared her throat softly.

"Um..."

"Your assistant, I've already had Kevin handle it. You had a day off today, and I didn't give her a hard time. Just had her sign a voluntary resignation."

Everett simply wanted to keep the day's good vibes going. He knew that no matter what he did, Perdita wouldn't be grateful. To prevent her from causing any trouble and upsetting Dorothy, he had Kevin escort her out of Eldorria City. She wouldn't find work in the city again, even if she chose to stay.
