"..." Dorothy felt a chill run down her spine.

The fact that he knew all this meant that Lane had been watching her for a long time.

Just thinking about it gave Dorothy the creeps!

It was only because Everett had always kept the kids well-protected that Lane hadn't made his move. Otherwise... Dorothy didn't even want to think about what would happen if Abigail and Langston fell into Lane's hands.

"When I left the country, I said I'd come back someday! Everett was too arrogant, not taking my words seriously! He never thought I'd come back to challenge him again! Dorothy, you can't blame me for being ruthless. He didn't care about losing face just to take you away from me! The takeover of East Star Enterprises was the joke of the corporate world! It kept me living in humiliation every single day!"

Though not as privileged as Everett, Lane had been pampered since childhood, always receiving envious glances and advances from countless women!

But Everett made him lose everything overnight.

If he hadn't conceded and sold his shares in time, he wouldn't even have been able to pay off his business loans!
