Dorothy opened her mouth, feeling as though she'd been struck mute, unable to find her words.

Yes.

There was a twhen she wished nothing more than for Amanda to perish, to meet an ill fate, to experience the agony of having loved ones still walking the earth while she could not.

But ever since Dorothy let go of her stubbornness, those thoughts had faded away.

It wasn't that she didn't harbor resentment towards Amanda anymore, but rather, she found it pointless. She believed in leaving the rest to the courts of law.

"Letting it all out might make you feel a bit better, so feel free to talk," Dorothy's voice was soft. "But, would you letstay by your side? I promise, I won't say anything, won't do anything, just be there for you.' "I need speace and quiet." "Then I-" "Dorothy, are you not getting it?" His voice rose, the irritation clearly evident.

"I'll be at Bay Residence waiting for you." What Dorothy really wanted to say was that she and the kids would be waiting for him at home, but she worried it might upset Everett even further.

Having lost her own mother, she knew all too well that pain, so no matter what Everett would say, she wouldn't get angry or blhim.

The call ended on Everett's end, leaving Dorothy with no choice but to leave the hospital with her phone in hand.

At the funeral home, Jonathan turned down everyone who called to offer their condolences.

He was simply too exhausted and too shaken to face reality, so... he decided to focus on taking care of the arrangements with his son. Everett hadn't wanted Dorothy there, but he had called Jeffrey.

Upon hearing the news, Jeffrey donned a black suit and rushed to the funeral home.

"Everett..." "Mm." The dark circles under Everett's eyes were a testament to his sleepless nights.

He stood silently against the wall, not much for talking.

Jeffrey gave his shoulder a supportive pat. "Condolences! Amanda... she suffered a lot with her illness. Maybe this is a sort of release for her." After being released from jail, Amanda's health had rapidly declined.

It was a battle fought with every penny they had, clinging on for dear life.

"Jeffrey." Everett suddenly spoke.

"I'm here, go ahead." "I've decided to keep Dorothy out of this mess." Jeffrey paused, "Hmm?" "There couldn't be a better reason now." Jeffrey was lost in Everett's words, not quite understanding. What did he mean by a better reason? "Everett, don't overthink things for we now! Let's just focus on giving Amanda a proper farewell, then we can deal with the rest! Quincy gave Dorothy the antidote, right? She'll manage to keep going, and she wouldn't dare let anything happen to Dorothy!" Exhausted, Everett didn't have the energy to explain further, simply lowering his gaze, lost in thought. Jeffrey's presence was a big help.

With the family bereavement, both and Everett were emotionally drained and veloverwhelmed. Naturally, Jeffrey stepped in to take care of things.

In Eldorria City, he was their only hope.

The funeral was set for two days later at the farewell hall.

After getting Jonathan settled in a hotel to rest, Jeffrey glanced at ΕΓΧ m Everett in the passenger seat. "Back to Bay Residence?" "Back to the office."

"You can't keep going like this! You need to rest! Dorothy and Abigailland Langston are waiting for you at home." At those words, there was a brief flicker of emotion in Everett's demeanor.

But it was fleeting.

"Back to the office." (Note: Due to a technical glitch earlier, a chapter was misplaced For
