Chapter 1341
"I've never been married, but just by watching you and Mr. Lopez navigate the ups and downs of your relationship, I've learned a ton! It's a good thing you two ended up together, or else... I might have given up on love for good." After all, if someone as devoted as Mr. Lopez couldn't find happiness, then what was the point of love, right?
"But we would've been missing out big time."
"Now, I've got hope for love again!"
Dorothy couldn't help but notice she's been smiling a lot more these days.
Everything was finally looking up.
All thanks to Kenneth.
Thinking of him, Dorothy's smile froze for a moment before brightening even further.
She figured Kenneth preferred seeing her happy.
...
Everett had barely finished up at the office when he drove over to pick up Dorothy.
Turns out she was still tied up with work, nearly causing them to miss lunch!
"Sorry, had clients over, couldn't just leave them hanging," Dorothy said, flashing a smile as she got into the car.
You know what they say, you can't get mad at a smiling face!
But honestly, even if she hadn't smiled, Everett would've happily waited for her.
"Did you get everything sorted with the Bureau of Industry and Commerce?"Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.
He leaned over to fasten her seatbelt himself.
"With Kevin on the case, it was smooth sailing!"
"So, what did we decide to call the company?" Everett hadn't forgotten about that.
Dorothy winked at him, "It's a secret for now! You'll find out at the launch. You're coming to the ceremony, right?"
The corners of Everett's lips turned up in a tender smile, his slender hands resting on the steering wheel, "Of course, I wouldn't miss it."
He could easily find out by asking Kevin, but if Dorothy wanted to surprise him, he wouldn't spoil her fun.
They arrived at the restaurant entrance.
Dorothy looked up-
Havenbrook City Cuisine.
"You've been into Havenbrook City food lately."
"Let's check it out." Everett took her hand, leading her inside.
At first, Dorothy didn't notice. anything out of the ordinary, given that Eldorria City had its fair share of Havenbrook City cuisine, though none quite authentic.
That was until she spotted a familiar face!
"Isn't that... Isn't that the lady who runs the diner by the school?"
What was she doing here?
Everett's lips curled up slightly,
giving Dorothy a knowing wink, "het
knew you'd miss the taste, so I had
her set up shop here" City!"
Dorothy was momentarily stunned, standing there in disbelief.
The diner lady, seeing them enter, quickly handed off her tasks to someone else and hurried over, "Mr. Lopez, Ms. Sanchez!"
"Just call me Dorothy, like old times," Dorothy had always been grateful to the couple!
Back when not many places were willing to hire someone underage, and she was desperate to earn more for her mother's medical expenses, they had taken her in, often letting her bring delicious food home.
And...
They were witnesses to her blossoming relationship with Everett!
"Of course! Seeing you two together, hand in hand, makes me so happy!" the diner lady clapped, "When's the wedding? You must tell me!" "We definitely will."
Dorothy nodded, feeling the warmth from Everett's hand tighten.
She looked up at him, "Hmm?"
He smiled, his expression triumphant.
"So... when are we getting married?"
