"I've got no chance with her. She wouldn't give Everett the time of day, so what hope do | have?" "| see your point." After a short conversation with Jeffrey, Lane hung up the phone. He immediately reached out to Austin. He ordered him to tell Dorothy that there was an urgent matter back in Everglow City that required her attention.

Everett was also in Havenbrook City, and he couldn't afford to give him any opportunities to approach Dorothy.

As he was about to lock his phone, his eyes inadvertently caught a glimpse of a number saved on his phone.

It was Heather's number, which he stole from Jeffrey's phone. But he didn't dial it.

It wasn't time to play his last card yet. He didn't want to escalate things.

When Austin called, Dorothy was still worried about the driver. She wanted to meet with him as soon as possible to figure out what had happened and how her drug had been neutralized.

"Dorothy, Everglow City needs you. When can you return?" "I've almost finished up here, so probably in a day or two. Lane is also in Havenbrook City now; let me check with him." "Alright!" After hanging up the phone, Dorothy once again found that the driver had not yet responded to her.

The longer she kept waiting, the more restless she became.

Finally, she received his message.

[How about we meet at Harvest Restaurant at 7 p.m. tonight?] [Sounds good. I'll bring your receipt.] She quickly got herself ready, making sure to put the receipt in her purse.

As she stepped out of her hotel room, she saw Lane standing around the corner, smoking a cigarette.

Upon seeing Dorothy, Lane extinguished his cigarette and walked towards her. "Did you have a good rest?" "Yeah." "What are you up to?" Lane examined her from head to toe, noticing that she was clearly dressed for an outing.

"I'm meeting a friend who helped me out last night. I'm treating him to dinner as a thank you." Lane laughed. Her ‘friend’ must be one of Everett's men.

Otherwise, how could he have known about these things and moved against Verity Holdings Limited even before he did? "Mind if | tag along? I'd like to thank your friend too." Dorothy paused and frowned slightly. "I don't think that's a good idea. He doesn't even know you." "We can get to know each other then! After all, he did me a huge favor too. The people from Verity Holdings Limited might have tried to harm you. Your friend stopped them in time, so | must express my gratitude.” Dorothy didn't want to bring Lane along.

Mainly because this was only her second meeting the driver. What would he think if she brought Lane along? "He's from Everglow City. You can meet him there if you get a chance. It's not convenient for me to bring you along tonight.” "Then let me give you a lift." Lane didn't push any further. He was mainly interested in finding out who this person was. He needed to know his enemy.

"I can just order a cab.” "I've got nothing to do. Why take a cab? Are you worried that | might do something to you?" "Alright then." Dorothy didn't want to argue with Lane. Right now, all she wanted was to meet the driver and find out what happened the night before.

Lane drove her to the restaurant. Since it was not yet the agreed-upon time, Dorothy didn't get out of the car. Instead, she discussed some work matters with Lane.
