Chapter 52

“A boy?”

Seeing the surprise on Dorothy’s face, the lady boss raised her eyebrows and asked, “Oh, you didn’t

know? I thought he spcafically requested this for you”

After all, back then, it was usually only she who would go to eat hamburgers after evening self–study

instead of rushing home.

“It was probably not because of me.”

She didn’t think anyone would have done that for her in middle school.

After chatting with the lady boss about the changes in the school, Durothy didn’t want to delay their rest

and decided to take the hamburger before leaving.

Leaving the shop, she saw Everett waiting for her across the street

He hadn’t followed her into the shop. He just stood there smoking a cigarette.

“You’ve never been here before, have you?

Dorothy thought. “He, a young master from a wealthy family, probably wouldn’t deign to eal such

ordinary food that only common folk

“I’ve been here.” Everett stubbed out his cigarette, tock the takeaway bag from her hand, and

continued to walk beside her.

Dorothy looked up slightly. “Really?”

I’m not as noble as you think

Although the Lopez family had been indeed wealthy back then, they were still far from their curent

status

“Do you think their food is good?”

“It’s okay, I ate there for two months straight.”

That really surprised Dorothy. She laughed a few times before saying. Till let you in on a secret. I

secretly worked here for two months in middle school! Luckily, I’m tall. Otherwise, they would have

realized they were employing child labor, and I would have let the couple down! Back then, I was

begging them to hire me.”

Everett gave a slight smile, quietly listening to her talk about the past

As they walked and chatted, they arrived at the backed hotel

Dorothy tried a bite of the hamburger.

“still tastes like I remember”

wanted to have another bite, but Everett took it away from her.

“Stop eating. It’s cold. It’s not good for your stomach

He seemed to care a lot about her stomach issues.

Dorothy was taken aback, thinking that Heather must also have had stomach problems, hence why

Everett always reminded her.

It was not that she always intentionally thinks about Heather. It was just that every time Everest showed

concem for her, Dorothy’s mind involuntanly drifted to his tattoo on the collarbane, the password to his

place, and Heather’s intimate calls of ‘Everett”

*Hungry?”

Seeing her silence, Everett thought she was upset that he took her hamburger, so he gently said, “I

have my assistant bring some food

“No need! I bought the hamburger on a whim.” She got up and grabbed her pajamas from the side of

the bed. “I’m going to take a shower.”

Dorothy hastily went into the bathroom. Looking at her reflection in the minar, she felt an indescribable

imitation.

She suddenly hated her own face!

Although it was because of her face that she caught Everett’s attention and gave her mother the

opportunity for surgery, it also constantly reminded her of her status as a substituto.

Ever since she signed the agreement with Everell, his gentleness, his consideration, and his

attentiveness, if Dorothy said she wasn’t moved at all, that would be a liel Because she had very rarely

boon cared for in her life.

But the cruelest thing was that she knew very clearly that all those heartwarming good deeds were

given to Heather through her face.

Without that face, she probably wouldn’t have even had the chance to talk to Everett alone!

14:57

That night, Dorothy was particularly proactive. Even when she was extremely exhausted and she didn’t

have the strength to rise her hand, she didn’t call for a stop.
