Chapter 976: Go Help Keith

"Dermot!" Evelyn snapped. "Who said you could kiss me?"

She wasn't his girlfriend, so what gave him the right?

"Sorry, couldn't resist," he said, not looking the least bit embarrassed.

Dermot's grin only made Evelyn angrier. She shoved him away, called him a jerk, and stormed upstairs.

As she walked off, Dermot was about to follow when the convenience store owner called out.

"Hey, check out this photo I took of you two!" The store owner beamed, showing Dermot the picture.

Dermot was momentarily stunned but then smiled. "It's perfect."

"I thought it was a beautiful moment," the store owner said, happy she captured it.

Dermot, a bit embarrassed, asked, "Could you send me that photo? I'd like to keep it."

"Of course."

After getting the photo, Dermot looked at it several times, satisfied, before thanking her and leaving.

This delay meant he couldn't catch up with Evelyn. By the time he got upstairs, she was already home, and he could only smile wryly at her closed door.

Inside, Evelyn changed out of her snow-soaked clothes. Despite the time, her cheeks were still flushed.

"Jerk!" she muttered.

Just then, she got a message from him. [Want to have breakfast? I'm at the door.]

Evelyn wanted to say no, but her stomach had other ideas, and she opened the door.

"Where did you get breakfast?" Evelyn asked.

"Todd dropped it off," Dermot replied. He had just gotten home when Todd delivered it, still hot.

Evelyn pouted. "In this cold, you made Mr. Angelo get breakfast for you?"

"He seemed happy to help," Dermot said. With the year-end bonus coming, Todd probably didn't mind.

Evelyn ate without saying more. A CEO like him wouldn't understand his employees.

"Aren't you going to the Doyle Group today?" Evelyn asked while eating.

"Of course, I work there now, so I have to go every day." Though he did nothing.

Evelyn took a bite of her hot dog. "I heard Mr. Randy Doyle has Mr. James Doyle taking over Mr. Gerald Doyle's old position. Is he planning to hand over the Doyle family to him?"

"If he wants to take over, he needs to prove he's capable." Given the current state of the Doyle Group, James's skills weren't enough.

Plus, Dermot wouldn't just hand over the Doyle Group to James easily.

"Your moves are always impressive," Evelyn said. When Dermot first said he'd take over the Doyle Group, she didn't believe him.

Randy still didn't plan to hand it over, but soon he'd realize he had no choice.

Dermot had already won.

Hearing her remark, Dermot smiled. "How about taking a day off today?"

"Why?" She had no intention of taking a day off.

"To help Keith," Dermot said, handing his phone to Evelyn. It showed his chat history with Keith.

After reading it, Evelyn was stunned and didn't react for a long time.
