"Alright, so if Abigail and Langston are tagging along with you, does that mean I'm free to look for someone else?" That one sentence nearly had Everett choking on his own breath.

When he spoke again, his tone was edged with frustration, "Are you that desperate?" "Yes! I am that desperate," Dorothy admitted boldly, her gaze fixed on him. "Since you can talk about breaking up and leaving us to marry whoever we want in the future, then I'm going to find a new boyfriend, right here, right now! Any guy will do! I'll make sure to get married to someone else before you tie the knot with Quincy!" || || "Don't forget, Kenneth is still single." || || "Everett, I'm not joking with you. As soon as you marry Quincy, I'll definitely marry-" "Enough." Everett cut her off.

His temples were throbbing by now.

"Suit yourself. If Kenneth is willing to marry you, then by all means, go ahead. There's no need to tellall this." || || "Are we done here? You can leave now." He turned his back to her, refusing to look at Dorothy any longer.

After a long while, he finally heard her footsteps as she left, and the door closed behind her.

Once he was sure she was gone, Everett immediately took out his phone to call Jeffrey.

"Is Kenneth still in the hospital?" "Yeah!" "Find a doctor and tell them Kenneth needs to go abroad for surgery and recovery. Then pick a far-off country and have him stay there for a few months." Dorothy didn't return to Bay Residence.

Instead, she went to the apartment Karen used to live in.

Throughout the journey, Dorothy thought about having a good cryet once she arrived, to vent all her frustrations, and then to think things over. But when she finally got there, her eyes were dry and she couldn't muster the emotion to cry.

It was almost laughable.

She couldn't even cry.

Sitting alone on the small couch, curled up, she stared blankly, not really seeing anything.

In truth, Dorothy's mind was a mess, and she couldn't focus on anything.

After what seemed like ages, the repeated ring of her phone snapped her back to reality.

Checking it, she saw several missed calls from Karen and also from Quincy.

Why is Quincy callingnow? To gloat? Dorothy managed a wry smile and called Karen back.

"Dorothy! I've got sgreat news. The hospital told my brother thatzif he goes abroad for surgery and takes stto recover, there's a good chance his legs could go back to how they were before!" "That's indeed great news." Dorothy tried to sound as normal as possible.

"I was so happy when I heard, I had to call you right away! Why didn't you pick up before?" "I was tied up with swork stuff, didn't see it." "Oh!" Karen laughed a bit, "By the way, have things cooled down between you and Everett?" Hearing that nstill made Dorothy's heart skip a beat.

"I guess you could say that, we're fine now, don't worry about us." "That's good to hear! Honestly, after we hung up the other day, I gave it sthought. I really shouldn't worry too much about you and Everett. He went through so much wouldn't trouble to win you over, ho muche let you be mistreated! The loss of his mother hit him hard, which is only natural. As your friend, I only saw his mom as the villain, which is why I said what I did. But for Everett, that woman was his mother, the woman who raised him. It's natural for him to feel upset and hurt." "Yeah." Dorothy lowered her lashes, murmuring in response.

"Things will get better, he'll caround!"
