Came out of the room.

Dirk Carter did not return the way he came.

Instead, he walked to the elevator and very normally pressed the elevator button.

At the elevator entrance, there sat a bodyguard in a black suit.

The appearance of Dirk made him pause for a moment.

"Buddy, where did you come from?"

The bodyguard asked.

Dirk rolled his eyes at him and did not respond, but directly got on the elevator and left.

The bodyguard grew more suspicious the more he thought about it.

Hurriedly ran to Erica Linden's room door, just about to knock, when he saw at the doorway, a condom package.

Picked it up and saw it was empty, meaning the "umbrella" inside had already been used.

Quickly ran to the side, took out his phone, dialed a number, and said, "Brother Dong, there's something I want to report to you..."

Left the hotel exit.

Dirk Carter got into a car parked at the entrance.

Corrine Quance saw him getting in and asked, "All done?"

Dirk nodded and said, "It's done."

With a sly smile, Corrine asked, "How does it feel to pin your old idol beneath you?"

Dirk thought for a moment and said, "Can't describe it, feels weird, of course, that feeling doesn't compare to you."

After saying that.

He reached out a hand and moved toward Corrine's legs.

Corrine slapped his hand away.

Said, "Bad timing, auntie came, gotta wait for next time."

"Alright, next time it is. The next step is up to you, I'm heading back overnight to get ready."

Dirk said.

Corrine asked, "Are you sure Benson Caldwell will follow?"

Dirk gave a knowing smile and said, "Even though Benson hasn't touched her, subconsciously Erica Linden is his woman, and no one else can have her. Otherwise, he wouldn't have parted ways with Jaden Lawson. Today, I deliberately gave the bodyguard some info. Without evidence, he won't act recklessly, so next time you invite Erica to Ardmore City, for sure he'll follow."

"How can you ensure Erica Linden will definitely go?"

Corrine asked.

Dirk smiled and said, "No need to ensure, after today, she's bound to be thinking about me day and night."

Hearing this, Corrine burst out laughing.

Said, "They say beauty brings trouble; I think you're the real troublemaker, a male beauty disaster."

Dirk shrugged.

Helplessly said, "Can't help it, God gave me such a good appearance, and some good tools. If I don't use them, wouldn't it just be a waste?"

After saying that.

He took a long sigh.

He said, "Alright, I'm getting a taxi back now, you hurry to the hotel, Erica Linden's bodyguard will definitely report to Benson Caldwell soon since it's you who arranged it, he will surely send someone to check if you're up to anything."

"Got it, I will."

Corrine nodded.

Dirk got out of the car.

Watched as Corrine's car disappeared into the darkness.

Suddenly felt a little hungry.

Walked along the street for a while, found a street food stall that hadn't closed yet.

"Boss, one bowl of mixed noodles with dumplings, large bowl."

Dirk shouted.

Just found an empty seat and sat down.

He saw a graceful figure at the table in front suddenly turned around, looking at him.

Dirk instinctively looked over.

Got a jolt.

"Dorothy!"

"Dirk!"

The two of them called out almost simultaneously.

The person in front of him was none other than Dorothy Zechariah whom he hadn't seen for almost half a year.

Completely different from her usual attire.

Normally, she dressed in a style somewhat akin to pure desire.

But today, she wore a full set of white casual suits, paired with a black shirt underneath, with high heels on her feet.

Her hair was styled and dyed.

All swept to the right side.

The whole person looked completely different from her usual style.

Exuding an air of superiority, like a little girl turning into a corporate queen.

Since they had met.

There was no avoiding it.

Dirk smiled, stood up, and sat down opposite Dorothy Zechariah.

Looking at her half-eaten bowl of mixed noodles with dumplings, he asked, "You like this too?"

"Didn't like it before, don't know why I do now."

The words made Dirk's heart stir slightly.

He liked eating mixed noodles with dumplings and had told Dorothy Zechariah about it before.

It was evident that Dorothy Zechariah was quite happy, but she restrained her expression, trying to appear very calm.

"Miss Zechariah, do we need to clear the place?"

Suddenly, at a nearby table, two young men in black suits stood up and said to Dorothy Zechariah.

Dorothy waved her hand and said, "No need, they're old friends, wait outside."

"Yes."

The two nodded and went straight out.

"Miss Zechariah? What do you mean?"

Dirk asked.

Dorothy Zechariah smiled sweetly.

Her smile was like a flower, indescribably beautiful, and said, "Dad is preparing to retire, the group is now managed by me, I'm now the President of Verdant Group."

Whoa.

He couldn't help but be amazed inside.

Quickly said, "Congratulations, congratulations, so now I should call you President Zechariah."

Dorothy Zechariah seemed not to like this title very much.

Paused and asked, "What are you doing in Ronan City?"

"Just handling a small matter, plan to head back after a late-night snack."

Dirk said.

Dorothy Zechariah glanced outside and asked, "So late, are you driving back overnight?"

"Will catch a taxi back."

After Dirk finished speaking, the boss brought over a bowl of mixed noodles with dumplings.

In the time that followed.

The two ate their food quietly.

Perhaps waiting for Dirk, Dorothy Zechariah had already eaten half, but the remaining half was eaten very slowly, occasionally looking up at Dirk.

"Alright, I've finished eating, I'll treat you this time."

Dirk wolfed down the food in his bowl, wiped his mouth, and stood up.

Dorothy Zechariah suddenly called out, "Dirk, let me drive you back?"

"Uh?"

Dirk was taken aback.

Dorothy quickly waved her hand and said, "Don't misunderstand, no matter what, we're friends, not to mention, it's hard to get a taxi here, I can have the driver take you, it won't delay anything."

"Won't it delay your work?"

Dirk asked.

Dorothy smiled and said, "You forgot, tomorrow's the weekend, been busy for so long, also want to unwind."

Honestly, Dirk wanted to refuse.

Didn't know if it was because of some expectation in his heart or out of reluctance to refuse Dorothy again, he nodded and said, "Alright, I'll trouble you then."

Soon, the car left the city and got on the highway.

Along the way, the two didn't talk.

Not because there were two bodyguards in the car.

Dorothy's car was top-notch, separating the driver's seat and the back seat.

It was more because they hadn't seen each other for a long time, adding to the unintended distance, neither knew how to start the conversation.

"Um... how has work been lately?"

Dirk paused, found a topic, and broke the silence.

Dorothy suddenly turned her head, looked at Dirk, and hugged his neck tightly, pressing her passionate red lips onto his...
