NovelStartChapter 1690: Dolores huffed in satisfaction. How dare a mere employee keep her waiting! And Lowell, too, acting as if he had any authority over her. How ridiculous! Lowell calmly closed his laptop and glanced at his assistant. "Tell accounting to double your bonus this month. Go get yourself a new pair of glasses, then head home." The assistant's face lit up. "Thank you, sir! I'll get one of the other assistants to cover the rest of my shift.” After Lowell's assistant scampered off, Dolores walked up to Lowell's desk. She crossed her arms over her chest and sneered. "I must say, you sure have a knack for managing your employees. No wonder those lapdogs are so loyal to you." "It's called charisma," Lowell replied smoothly. "It's something you wouldn't understand, I'm afraid, though it explains your distinct lack of admirers." Lucille took offense. "How dare you speak to your sister like that! She's perfectly charming as she is!" "If that's true," Lowell drawled, his voice laced with sarcasm, "then Shaun would have fallen for her a long tago. The fact that all three of you barged in here uninvited can only mean that you hit a wall with Shaun. Well? Am I right?" "It's Dad's fault!" Dolores grumbled. “He was supposed to helpfabricate sevidence, but he bungled the whole thing! Even a dimwit wouldn't believe anything in his pile of so-called evidence!" She tossed a folder onto his desk, presumably containing all this supposed evidence. Lowell picked it up and briefly skimmed through its contents.
He smirked before saying, "If you can't do it right, then don't bother doing it at all. Our family may not cfrom old money, but we still have a reputation to maintain. I can't afford this kind of embarrassment." Dolores' jaw clenched. "Are you callingan embarrassment? Have you forgotten that I am still your older sister? How dare you!" Feel inspired by ga lη σ v☐ ☐s,Lowell just shrugged. "I'm simply stating facts. If you keep this up, news of your little forgery schmight just leak into the press. Before you know it, it will be all over the city." Leon cleared his throat. “I know I fumbled the evidence, but it's tricky business. The thing is, I've figured out a way to get Shaun and Dolores together without faking anything." "Dad," Dolores whined, "you have to make this work this time. My future happiness depends on it!" Leon turned to glare at her. “This is all your fault! You have an unhealthy obsession with Shaun! Our family has its pick of eligible partners, and you insist on choosing someone who doesn't even care about you! You're the one making things difficult forand your mom!" Lucille heaved a long, exasperated sigh. Her husband had made a great point. In fact, if they had gone with any other prospective son-in-law, they would probably be discussing wedding plans by now.
Dolores sighed dreamily, her eyes glazing over with infatuation." just love Shaun He's so handsand accomplished. He's everything to me."
