Amanda had always been a hard nut to crack. If it weren't for Heather constantly asking for more time for Everett, Amanda would have announced the engagement already.

Since her son chose to remain silent on the matter, she decided to lay down the law.

"You two must get engaged before the end of this year. If you're busy with work, I'll take care of everything." At the hotel, Dorothy had a short chat with Karen before hanging up.

After all her years of running around, it felt like she had very little time to just chill.

While lying there looking at the ceiling, she replayed Heather's vicious statements in her head and remembered her angry face. It was as if Heather, not her, was the one who had been robbed of her father since childhood.

It was like this mother-daughter duo had never heard of the statement 'the pot calling the kettle black." As she chuckled to herself, Dorothy was just about to pick up her phone when she noticed a voice message from Kenneth.

After a moment's hesitation, she decided to listen to it.

"Dorothy, good news! My friend has been tracing the number that called you that day, and he found out that the call was made from the Lopez Building." She quickly called him.

"Is this really true? That's great!" Dorothy sat up immediately. "Now I just need to find evidence of Heather's contact with Regal Dominion Ventures, and | can prove | was framed." "Yep, I've been keeping an eye on them too. As soon as | get any news, I'll let you know." "Thank you so much!" She wouldn't have been able to do any of this on her own.

Kenneth laughed. "We're friends! | couldn't just stand by and watch you be framed. Plus, it actually wasn’t that hard.” Dorothy knew tracking data and IP addresses wasn't as easy as he made it sound. The time and effort also cost him money.

She owed Kenneth even more now.

After discussing his plans with Dorothy, he assured her that even if Heather wouldn't confess, as long as the evidence kept piling up and pointing at her, Heather's denial would be useless.

They talked until Dorothy's phone's battery was almost dead.

After she hung up and returned to the home screen, she was shocked to see several voice messages and texts from Everett.

“Where are you?” “I'm coming to find you.” “Dorothy, who were you talking to?” After looking at his texts and remembering Karen's advice, she decided to pretend that her phone had died, and thus she didn't see his messages.

After all, her phone was really about to die.

She planned to go do the paternity test on Heather's sample the next day, so she decided to turn in a little early.

Just as Dorothy was about to relax and get some sleep, there was a sudden knock on the hotel room door.

Suddenly, she thought of Everett.

But it couldn't be, right? With so many hotels in Eldorria City, how could he find her so quickly? "Who is it?" Dorothy walked over and asked, but the person at the door only knocked and didn't respond.

She looked through the peephole.

If it wasn't Everett, who else could it be? "How did you find me?" Upon opening the door, Everett's tall figure almost filled the doorway. His eyes were fixed on her face, and his brows were furrowed as usual.

He asked, "Did my mom tell you something?" "Amanda didn't say anything." Dorothy forced a smile, trying to act casual. "She doesn't even know me, so what could she possibly say?" "Did she say that Heather is my fiancée?"
