Chapter 43
“Dottie, I understand your frustration, but this is Mr. Lambert’s decision. He intends to promote Dr. Frazier, and I do nothing about it.“[]
Dorothy felt tightness in her chest. She took a deep breath and said, “I sec.“]
As Dorothy left the office, she ran into Sonia.[]

Sonia raised her eyebrow with a provocative smile. “Dr. Acosta, I suppose Dr. Harrison has told you. I’m really sorry about it. I didn’t expect Dwayne to go this far for me. I guess you have to tolerate it.”
Dorothy went past her without a pause, heading straight away.
Ignored, Sonia pulled a long face.]]
Did Dorothy think she could steal Dwayne with a pretty face? How arrogant.[]
She would see if Dorothy could stay in this profession once her reputation was ruined.[]
At the Lambert Group.
Margaret pushed open the office door. “Mr. Lambert, I’ve followed your instructions and contacted Dr. Harrison.” She paused and then asked, “But do you really plan to let Ms. Frazier take over Ms. Acosta’s duties?“]
Aside from the Lambert family, Margaret was the only one in the company who knew about Dwayne and Dorothy’s secret marriage.[]
Therefore, she always addressed Dorothy as Ms. Acosta.]
When she was with Dorothy, she pretended to know nothing about it.[]
Dwayne spun the antique globe on his desk and said casually. “I owe her.”
He knew clearly he only felt indebted to Sonia.[]
So he would try his best to satisfy whatever Sonia wanted.
Besides, Dorothy had slapped Sonia in front of everyone. He wouldn’t allow Sonia to slap her back.
Making Dorothy pay a small price for her stubbornness was already his concession.
