The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 25

"Yes." Dorothy didn't hide her eagerness. "Our team 3 suffered a blow with the Harmony Ventures incident this year. It hit our year-end bonuses hard, but I see it as an opportunity, and I want to grab it."

If she could secure the SinoSuccess Enterprises project at this time, rescuing her team from disaster, Mr. Percy would certainly be happier and appreciate her more than ever.

Everett looked at her, his lips twitching slightly after a while. "Headquarters is planning to pull a few people from the Prosperity Consortium for financial training."

"Can I go?" Dorothy almost immediately asked.

"Hmm, if you behave, I'll consider it."

"Mr. Lopez, I will definitely listen to whatever you say!"

Was this even a question? Even without this issue, she, as an assistant, had to listen to the boss.

"I remember telling you not to call me Mr. Lopez at home."

She froze.

He raised his eyebrows.

After a long time, Dorothy very awkwardly squeezed her leg, whispering, "Everett…"

Everett seemed pleased. His eyes looked relaxed as he stood up. "Go get ready; I'll have my secretary inform Mr. Percy. After the training, you'll know how to handle the SinoSuccess Enterprises issue."

With that, he walked back to the master bedroom to change for work.

Dorothy watched his tall figure, contemplating what was going on.

Just calling him "Everett" made him this happy?

...

The issue with the person in charge at SinoSuccess Enterprises didn't blow up, so no one in the company knew.

This gave Dorothy a sigh of relief.

She didn't want to recall this experience, nor did she want to repeat it to anyone, then have to force a smile to accept their possibly well-intentioned comfort.
