Before Dorothy could reply, Karen shot off a second message.
[You're acting so weird! Dorothy, am | your bestie or not?] [Of course.] [Then spill the beans! Who is this boy you're all twisted up about? Don't deny it. From the looks of it, you're clearly smitten with someone.] Smitten with someone...
Did she mean Everett? But Dorothy's first thought was she didn’t dare. Everett was a deity to a votary like her. How could she dare to have personal feelings towards a deity? [I'm just curious about guys in relationships so don't get all touchy.] Karen wasn't having it.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt[I knew you wouldn't admit it. But let me warn you, it's all fun and games until you lose yourself over some guy's sweetness. You think he's nice to you but maybe he's even nicer to others! If guys are overly nice to you right off the bat, they usually have ulterior motives. It won't last.] Dorothy really wanted to tell Karen her situation with Everett and have her analyze it.
But after reading her message, she didn't feel the need anymore.
Because Karen had pretty much answered all of her burning questions! What's left to ask? It seemed that rich guys were all playing the same game, or maybe all guys were.
That's why Karen could guess so accurately about why she was so conflicted. She felt that way just because Everett was too gentle and too considerate.
Dorothy thought she better brace herself. Or she would caught off guard if Everett suddenly took back all his niceness.
After leaving Dorothy's place, Everett went straight back to his room.
He suddenly realized that what stood between him and her wasn't just her slow-to-warm-up personality, but also the huge social class difference.
Dorothy's earlier question was to explain why she chose to take Kenneth to meet her mom.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut to Everett, it was his most thorny and unsolvable problem! He couldn't let his parents know about Dorothy's existence for now, let alone take them to the hospital to see her mother.
But Kenneth could.
Everett furrowed his thick brows. He grabbed a bottle of red from the wine cabinet and took a few sips just as Amanda called.
"I'm in Eldorria City. Heather picked me up. She'll take good care of me, so don’t worry." He frowned, "I'll arrange for my assistant to take care of you. Ms. Heather has other things to do." "No! I'm not familiar with your so-called assistant. Why are you sending him here?" Amanda sounded a bit annoyed and resentful, "I finally come home for a visit and you are away on a business trip. And now you want to drag Heather into work too? Who's going to keep me company?" Before Everett could say anything, Heather's gentle voice came from the other end.
"Amanda, I'll keep you company! Tell Everett not to worry; my work won't be affected.” Amanda was always satisfied with Heather. She nodded and praised, "You're so thoughtful! Thank God you're here, otherwise, | would be all alone coming back home. What's the point of having a son then? You two better have a bunch of granddaughters in the future. | don't want any grandsons!" Listening to their conversation, Everett felt a headache coming on.
"Mom, Ms. Heather and I..." "I get it! You're prioritizing work, right? | didn't say anything.” Amanda chuckled, "Alright, go do your work! We'll talk when you're back from your trip." She hung up without even giving Everett a chance to explain.
A few seconds later, Heather's text came in.
[Don't worry, Everett. I've got Amanda covered. Just focus on your trip.]
