Dorothy nodded with a sigh, "Looks like Jeffrey's gonna have a tough twinning over Kenneth." "That's their business," Everett replied, his chiseled face showing a hint of displeasure. “Why did Kenneth call you anyway? Shouldn't he be talking to Karen directly?" "Probably he thinks Karen won't spill the beans, and it's her parents who asked him to check in with me. They wanted an inside scoop on the situation." Dorothy snuggled into his arms, her voice soft. "You think there's something going on between Kenneth and me?" "Well," Everett scoffed, "You might not be interested, but he sure is." The last twhen he was at Kenneth's place, Everett could feel his hostility from start to finish.

It wasn't just a little bit.

Kenneth had told Dorothy he was over her, that they were just friends, but still he'd be antagonistic towards Everett.

What did that imply? "Everett." Dorothy pouted playfully. "Do you smell that? A big whiff of jealousy." Everett didn't bother hiding it. He pinned her between the wall and his chest, ki*sing her thoroughly before letting her go.

"Yeah, I'm jealous, but not as much as Kenneth. Because when I want a ki*s, I can get one." Dorothy's cheeks were flushed, her breath still tinged with Everett's scent, a reminder of their intimate moment. She liked it.

Back in the dining room, Karen had already stood up from her chair.

Dorothy approached and took her hand. "Heading over to see Kenneth?" "Yeah." Karen grimaced, exhaling heavily. "I've got to calm him down. If he tells my parents anything bad about Jeffrey, it'll tarnish his image for good." "I'll cwith you," Jeffrey was rising to join her. He couldn't let Karen face this alone.

"No need." Karen waved him off. "I'll talk to him first. You can't rush things with Kenneth." Kenneth was a tough nut to crack. Seemed gentle enough, but he was stubborn and not easily swayed.

"I'll take you there and wait outside," Jeffrey insisted, his gaze serious. "Whether it's your parents or your cousin, as long as you're not leaving me, nobody can tear us apart." Karen was moved by his words and nodded in agreement.

Hearing their conversation, Dorothy felt a stir of emotion.

She had wondered whether she and Everett could stay together if she had to face his family head-on, sending his mother to jail.

"What's on your mind?" Everett drew close, ki*sing her forehead.

Dorothy smiled. "Nothing... Jeffrey really seems to care about Karen. I hope they make it."

"Care? That guy's way past caring now. I wouldn't believe those words cfrom him if I hadn't heard them myself." Who was Jeffrey, after all? A notorious playboy in Eldorria City - nobody would be ignorant of the nof Mr. Turner.

Now he was tamed by Karen, even considering marriage and kids - he must be serious.

Dorothy was surprised too. But as long as Karen was happy, that's what mattered. Like Kalex said, the future was uncertain, and happiness in the moment was key.

She looked up at Everett, "Once you wrap up the company stuff, let's head back to Swevia Country together. I'm country worried about your injury." "It's okay; there's still something I need to do." "What's that?" "I want to be with you when you visit your mother's grave."
