Chapter 227Â
After Mrs. Lawson left the mall, she hesitated for a moment before picking up her phone to call Sonia,Â
Sonia was still in the office editing documents when she received a call. She frowned and said, “Mrs. Lawson, didn’t we agree not to contact each other recently?”Â
“Oh, I was just at the mall, guess who I saw?”Â
Sonia paused for a moment and asked, “Who?”Â
“Dorothy, that little minx!” Mrs. Lawson glanced out the window and continued, “That little minx is quite cunning, actually managed to climb into the Wexley family!”Â
“Was it the Wexley family from Daewynn?”Â
“Yeah!”Â
Sonia remained silent.Â
When did Dorothy seek the support of the Wexley family? Does Dwayne know about this?Â
“Also, that bitch knows about Jovanni now, luckily Jovanni has resigned, but I’m afraid she might find out something.” Mrs. Lawson became more and more anxious, and also a little regretful, “Ms. Frazier, I really didn’t expect those people to go so far, if I had known earlier, I would have…”Â
“This matter should not be mentioned again,” Sonia said coldly. “If you act in a panic, you will be playing into that despicable person’s hands. No matter how she tries to probe, you must not admit anything.”Â
“I knew, of course, but this couldn’t go on like this forever.”Â
Mrs. Lawson is now living in constant fear, afraid that someone will find out about this. During this time, she has lost a lot ofÂ
weight!Â
Sonia raised her eyebrows slightly and smiled at the corner of her mouth, “Rest assured, I have come up with a win–win solution to deal with her.”Â
In the evening, Keith personally escorted Dorothy back to the hotel. Before Dorothy got off the car, he suddenly spoke, “Are you free after eight o’clock tonight?”Â
Dorothy stopped outside the door, puzzled, “What’s wrong?”Â
“I had a dinner party in the evening, just arrived in Dewbury not long ago and not familiar with anyone else, wondering if you would be my companion.”Â
Keith looked at her and added kindly, “I can pay extra.”Â
Dorothy agreed without hesitation.Â
Keith smiled without saying a word.Â

She suddenly said seriously, “You don’t need to pay, for Mrs. Wexley’s sake, I will be your companion for freeÂ
She was given one hundred thousand in a day.Â
Enough is enough.Â
She was not greedy.Â
Keith’s eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, suddenly, he smiled and said, “Then I’ll come pick you up later.Â
After he left, Dorothy went home and took a shower.Â
Opening the drawer, she saw a cabinet full of cosmetics, and she was lost in thought for a long time.Â
She had forgotten that she used to be a girl who loved beauty, and it had been a long time since she had dressed up properly.Â
She looked at herself in the mirror, as if she could see the self from six years ago, who was humble and begging for love, always trying to please him.Â
At that moment, she decided to reconcile with the past and with herself.Â
