Dorothy vaguely remembered the strokes on her hair, over and over again, until she finally passed out.
She was completely exhausted as she slept as soundly as a rock.
Everett even took care to draw the curtains tight when he left, not a shred of light slipped through, causing Dorothy to sleep like a log till noon!
She woke up and groped for her phone. There was a missed call from her mom, and another from Kevin.
What could he have possibly wanted?
Dorothy sprang up, then returned the call.
"Kevin, you were looking for me?"
"Yeah, just wondering when you're coming back to work."
"Well, you could've just tried calling a few more times, I overslept. Sorry about that! If it's urgent next time, so feel free to give me a few more rings." Dorothy apologized hastily.
Kevin chuckled on the other end, "Mr. Lopez already filled me in. He said you were still asleep and told me not to disturb, you'd get in touch when you're up."
"He... told you?"
Does that mean Kevin knew about their relationship?
A twitch tugged at the corner of Dorothy’s mouth.
"Who else would know you’re still asleep but Mr. Lopez?"
But Kevin, being the smart guy he was, only laughed a few times, "Don't sweat it. Whatever you and Mr. Lopez are, we still need your skills! If you can't cut it, you can't stay at Lopez Corporation. I won't attribute your hard work to Mr. Lopez's coddling just because you're his... whatever."
