Chapter 113

Everett and his crew had to dip out early because they had a video conference after dinner.

Once they were out of the picture, Dorothy holed herself up in her room to get down with the paperwork.

She decided not to waste her time on things that didn’t make sense. There was no point in trying to comprehend such matters. This might be her only shot at climbing up the ladder, and since Everett was giving her a leg up, she was going to bust her ass to make sure she didn’t let him down.
