Then it would've been just you and me." Karen snorted. "As if you could give up all your exes with their model figures, curves for days, and those sweet, sultry looks." The words "exes" hit Jeffrey like a sucker punch, second only to the blow Heather had dealt him.
"Can we not talk about this anymore?" "You're the one who brought up ex-boyfriends." "I'm sorry, okay?" Jeffrey flashed a sheepish grin, trying to lighten the mood. "How about I carry you off to the shower?" Karen pushed him away. "I can shower on my own, thank you very much. I'm not paralyzed." "Still got sfight in you, huh? Then..." "Get lost!" After two days of stubborn silence, Jonathan was the first to crack.

If his son ended up offing her, his wife would probably throw a fit, sure, but it would not amount to much.
Everett saw the message and immediately had Kevin arrange for someone to handle it.
Dorothy just wanted evidence, right? She wanted to go through the proper legal channels to ensure Heather faced justice.
He understood and was willing to make it happen.
"Karen says that Jeffrey is now officially the future son-in-law of her family." Dorothy was beaming as she looked at her phone, a rare sight. S~Earch the Find_Nøvelwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.
"It looks like wedding bells are in the air?" "Seems like it." Dorothy nodded, genuinely happy for Karen. It was heartwarming to see her friend about to settle down, especially with a guy as drool-worthy as Jeffrey. "She said they're getting engaged first, then married. Her folks aren't ready to let their baby girl go just yet." Everett reached out and gently tousled her hair. “By the tthey get engaged, I should be able to leave Swevia Country for good." He would not miss Jeffrey's engagement party for the world.
Dorothy was momentarily taken aback, looking up at him.

Sensing her unease, Everett stayed calm for once and simply smiled.
"Dorothy, just go for it. Chase the justice you're after. I've got your back." Dorothy did not reply.
"Smooth out that frown. I like it when you smile." Everett thought she was worried about gathering evidence, fearing that his mother might interfere and protect Heather from prosecution.
"Everett..." "Whatever you need, I'll make sure you have have it He twirled a lock of her hair around his finger, an intimate and suggestive gesture.
