Marrying A Secret Zillionaire Happy Ever After

Chapter 734 I Will Take Responsibility

Dolores was seething with fury. She glared at Dustin and shouted, "Why did you disconnect the phone line at the front desk? What happens if a client calls? Will you be responsible for the financial losses?"noveldrama

"I will take responsibility," Dustin quickly replied. "I disconnected only the front desk and your office phones. I didn't want anyone tipping you off about my arrival because you've been avoiding me."

Dolores' eyes flared as she instinctively responded, "I haven't been avoiding you!"

"Really? You haven't?" Dustin emphasized each word. "Then why haven't you taken my calls or responded to my texts recently? I was here yesterday looking for you, and everyone claimed you were out."

In the background, Linsey observed the confrontation, uncertain if she should intervene.

She noticed Khloe and the intern exchanging uncomfortable glances, so she quickly gave them a discreet nod to leave the scene,

Following Linsey's subtle hint, Khloe quietly ushered the intern out, leaving Dolores and Dustin by the doorway, with Linsey still standing near the entrance.

"I'm busy with work! Unlike you, I don't have the luxury to waste time all day," Dolores retorted sharply.

Dustin paused, searching for words, then continued, "Yet, you still haven't addressed the real issue between us."

Dolores's voice rose sharply as she replied, "Are you expecting some kind of formal proposal as if we're in a business meeting? If there's a solution to be had, shouldn't you be the one presenting it? Why am I the one who has to come up with it?"

Caught off guard by the intensity of the situation over such a trivial issue, Linsey couldn't hold back a soft giggle at the absurdity of their discussion.

Dustin quickly retorted, "I'm prepared to suggest a solution, but are you willing to consider it?"

Tired of the back-and-forth, Dolores ended the conversation abruptly. "Enough, I'm too hungry to argue. Move

out of the way. I'm going to lunch."

She motioned for Linsey to follow her, indicating it was time to depart.

Just as Dustin was about to add more, he suddenly noticed Linsey and reacted with surprise. "Oh... Linsey?

You're back in town?"

Before Linsey could reply, Dolores sharply interjected, "And what concern is that of yours?"

Dustin realized his mistake and hastened to apologize. "Sorry, I just blurted that out because I was surprised.

He continued to stare at Linsey, his surprise causing him to momentarily forget the reason for his visit.

Chapter 7341 WI Take Responsibility

Linsey then calmly said, "I've been back for some time now."

She thought for a moment before softly adding, "Since you and Dolores are friends, let's keep things informal"

At that comment, Dolores quickly retorted, "Who said anything about him and me..."

Dustin picked up on her implication and interjected, his voice filled with disbelief, "What, we're not even friends now? Dolores, that's really cold."

His reaction was laden with a sense of betrayal, as though Dolores' words had deeply wounded him.

Linsey found herself chuckling at the exchange, then hastily added, "Sorry." Dustin seemed unfazed by her laughter, his attention solely on Dolores.

Feeling cornered by his intense gaze, Dolores gave in with exasperation. "Fine, fine, we're friends. I haven't even finished speaking, and you're already upset?"
