"Let's head back, Karen!" Jeff urged as he tried to catch Karen's eye, signaling her to leave.
But Karen was seething, her anger blinding her to Jeff's pleading looks.
"I'm not leaving! I won't let anyone bully Dorothy!" "She'll be fine, just cwith me." Out of options, Jeff walked over and, without further ado, scooped his wife into his arms.
"Jeff, putdown this instant!" "We'll talk about it at home! Uh... Everett, Dorothy, you guys chat. We're heading out." Everett wished for nothing more than their immediate disappearance.

Now, only Dorothy and Everett remained in the Bay Residence, facing each other in silence. SeaR*ch the FindNøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
Once, they had longed for a moment alone. Now, they found themselves at a loss for words.
"You..." "Everett, I can't give you the children." Dorothy didn't want to hear any excuses. She had to stand up for her own rights.
Abigail and Langston had been without their mother for too long. If she were to leave them behind and move overseas, she couldn't call herself a mother! "I can live without the children. Just don't leave the country." "And what would I do in Eldorria City? Watch you and Quincy play house?" Dorothy's voice was cold as ice. "I don't understand why you insist onstaying! Everett, if you truly care for Quincy, then stop meddling in my affairs. I'll take the kids with me; they'll give you two the space you need." Dorothy would never leave Abigail and Langston with Everett.
It wasn't just about her reluctance to part with her children; she simply couldn't trust Quincy to care for them.
If Everett married Quincy, she would becAbigail and Langston's stepmother.
How could Dorothy ever be at peace with that? "Listen to me! What you think is happening between Quincy and me-it's not like that." "Then what is it like?" Dorothy was all ears, always waiting for Everett to clarify things.
But where was his explanation? All he had done since returning to the Bay Residence was demand the children-demand she be separated from her own! "I..." Everett frowned, "Dorothy, don't ask too many questions. Stay here at the Bay Residence with the kids. Even if we break up, the house is yours to keep." "I don't want it," Dorothy refused flatly. "I won't continue living here."
The house held special significance for both of them, which made it all the more painful for Dorothy to consider staying after their breakup.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"If you insist on leaving the country, you can't take the kids Without my consent you won't be able to." Everett couldn't continue. He simply laid out the stark reality in a cold voice.
Whether or not Dorothy could accept it, she had to.
If Dorothy left, what would becof the poison in her system? Everett e.
couldn't monitor it from afar. And as for acquiring the ultimate antidote, he needed to ensure its efficacy himself.
As for trusting Quincy? That was out of the question.
"Is this really what you want?" Disappointment filled Dorothy's eyes.
She couldn't understand how Everett had becso unrecognizable.
