That was his ultimate reason for coming today.
"You want me to work for you?! I'm your rival in love!"
Everett tapped his fingers lightly on the table, chuckling softly, "There are many who fancy Dorothy, but none can truly claim to be my rival."
Byte 7's eyes widened, "Why?"
"Because in Dorothy's heart, there's only ever been room for me."
"…Aren't you just the cheesiest?" Even Byte 7 couldn't stand it anymore, "No wonder Langston said he's had enough."
Just sitting here for a while, and he's already fed up!
"But it's the truth."
"I'll head over to Lopez Corp, aren't you worried I'll be all over Dorothy?"
Everett spread his hands, "She's left Lopez Corp."
"That explains your generosity! And here I was thinking you were being kind-hearted." Byte 7 leaned back as he spoke.
Given that he's a gaming addict, he's rarely sitting up straight - it's either leaning or slouching for him.
But facing Everett, there's this inexplicable feeling of being in a business negotiation, and that he has to listen!
Damn it.
That instantly puts him at a disadvantage.
"You might want to think it over, then get back to me."
"I won't do it! Who would work for a love rival? Wouldn't that be humiliating?" Byte 7 was quicker to refuse than anyone, not even giving it a second thought.
Everett didn't insist, only saying lightly, "No need to come into the office, an annual salary of over thirty million, just providing technical guidance online, with occasional requests to attend meetings at the company."
"…Don't try to tempt me with money, I'm not short of it."
"Then consider it unsaid, Julian."
He stood up and walked away.
Behind him, Byte 7 blinked rapidly, hurrying after him, "Everett! How did you know my real name?! Impossible, I’ve erased all traces, did you guess?!"
He smiled, "Yes, guessed."
