DreameNovelIn a moment that had everyone at Trust-E, including Dorothy and her colleague, bursting into laughter, it seemed
like the tables had turned in Trust-E's favor.
Who would have thought? In a city like Eldorria, brimming with companies and projects clamoring for a
collaboration with Trust-E! But Dorothy, keen on stepping out from under the shadow of the renowned Lopez
Corporation, had specifically chosen this project in Everglow City to test the waters.
And yet, there were those who failed to see a good thing when it was staring them in the face.
"If you all feel this is too much of a stretch, then perhaps we should call it off," Dorothy said, ready to leave. The
male project lead, unable to swallow his pride, blocked her way, fuming.
"Walk away just like that? You say no to collaboration, and that's it? What about the tyou've wasted for our
company? You owe us compensation!"
Compensation? Dorothy thought, Why not just paint the word 'extortion' across your forehead!
Before Dorothy could retort, she felt a pair of familiar hands on her shoulders.
Instinctively, she wanted to shrug them off.
But then, the distinctive presence of Everett quickly enveloped her...
"Compensation, you say? I'll wire it directly to your company account," he said, subtly positioning Dorothy
behind him, ensuring her safety first and foremost.
The project lead, recognizing the support Dorothy had but unable to place the man, decided not to back down.
"How much, then? It better be worthwhile!"

Dorothy tried to speak, but Everett caught her eye, then appeared to ponder seriously for a moment. "About
twenty million, give or take."
"Twenty million?!" The man's voice pitched high, incredulous at Everett's proposal, "Are you pulling my leg here?
Twenty million in compensation for this little inconvenience? Are you dreaming?" Dorothy was taken aback
herself.
She looked up at Everett's stern face, realizing he wasn't joking.
"Oh, not for the inconvenience. This
would be... for acquiring your company, Everett said, gently
yelet
stroking Dorothy's hair. "Since you're so keen on this project, Ms. Sanchez, how about | acquire it and you discuss
the contract directly
with me?"
Silence fell.
Dorothy couldn't help but laugh at the absurdity.
"How
to acny companies do you plan t every company Trust
to acquire for me? Are you
wants to partner with?"
"It depends, Everett mused, then corrected, "On your mood, actually. Any project you're interested in but not the
people negotiating, I'll take over and deal with you directly."

With that, Everett was ready to leave, the project lead stumbling behind in confusion.
"Wait, who are you? With such bold claims of buying our company for twenty million?"

The man's knees went weak.
No wonder he looked familiar!
No wonder he could so casually talk about acquiring companies.
"Why didn't you say Trust-E was associated with the Lopez Corporation earlier?"
He wouldn't have made such a blunder!
"It's not too late to find out now.
