Chapter 1124 Chapter 1124 Karen's words hit Dorothy like a ton of bricks. It was such a cliché.
The only reason she hadn't thought of it herself was because Everett's mother had indeed passed away during that time, and his mom had sdeep-seated issues with Dorothy, which overshadowed everything else.
Seeing Dorothy silent, Karen pressed on, "Think about it, is there anything off about Everett? Are he and Quincy really an item?" "All I know is that Everett kept meeting up with her. I've caught the scent of Quincy's perfon him, and then... Quincy was called into his office alone." "You're just too emotionally involved to see it clearly. Don't you think all this is a bit suspicious?" "Hmm..." Dorothy was feeling a whirlwind of emotions.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBut! She was certain she didn't want Karen's words to be true.
Because if Karen's suspicions were correct, it meant Everett was suffering from a serious illness, the kind that couldn't be cured! Dorothy didn't want Everett to die.
Even if it meant breaking up, even if he had fallen out of love with her, even if he had left her for someone else, she could accept that. Just not him being sick.
"I'll go and try to get more out of Jeffrey. That guy never spills anything, but the more tight-lipped he is, the more it proves he knows something!" "Okay." Dorothy nodded, "Could you... could you look into it for me?" Karen instinctively reached out to hold her hand, only to realize Dorothy's hand was ice-cold.
And trembling.
It was at this moment Karen truly regretted her actions.
She shouldn't have told Dorothy anything before confirming it! If Everett was indeed terminally ill, how could Dorothy handle it? "Dorothy, don't be scared! There's no conclusion yet, maybe... maybe my suspicions are completely off!" But Dorothy was already stiffening up, feeling as though her blood was turning to ice.
"Everett collapsed at the office, I saw it with my own eyes! Karen... I saw it! If it's true, I can't even bear to think..." Karen quickly rubbed Dorothy's hands to warm them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Calm down! These are all just guesses, Dorothy, you're scaring me!" Her face was deathly pale, her spirit seemed shattered.
Karen couldn't believe how she had failed to keep her suspicions to herself, rushing over to share them without thinking it through.
If Everett was keeping it from Dorothy, it must be because he knew she couldn't handle it.
"I'm... I'm scared..."
Dorothy looked up at Karen, "I'm really scared! Everett can't be, hez won't have sterminal illness! N.O He's just tired of me, he's just fallen for Quincy! Karen, tellit's just him falling out of love, nothing else!" Karen hurried to comfort her, patting her back and getting increasingly anxious.
"Right! It's just a guess, I thought about it again and it seems unlikely! How could it be so coincidental? His mom just passed away and then he's diagnosed with a terminalillness, impossible! Didn't you go to the hospital with him? What did the doctor say about Everett's condition?" "The doctor said they couldn't find anything, it might just be psychological."
"See! Even the doctor said so! It's all my big mouth making guesses!" Karen om for Dockly grabbed stissues for Dorothy, "Don't cry, Dorothy! I think it's not true, you know m always wrong about these things!" Ashburn X
