Dorothy paused for a few seconds, her nod stiff and awkward. "Yeah, you surely know what's best for you." "That's right, Dorothy! After all, if I beca stepmom, I'd be the fairy tale kind of stepmother!" Dorothy watched as Karen forced a smile, entertaining herself with the joke. But it wasn't funny. Not one bit.
What they didn't realize was that Jeffrey hadn't left all night.
He had stood at the doorstep of Karen's apartment, exhausted, eventually sitting on the steps, leaning against the wall.
It felt like only by being there, he could be a little closer to her.

Cearly morning, just as Jeffrey had barely closed his eyes, he sensed someone looming over him! He jolted awake, looking up to see the figure.
"Everett! You-" Everett, with his thick eyebrows furrowed, bent down to shush him.
"Keep it down, man. I can't let Dorothy see me." Everett glanced at the apartment door with a low voice, "Cdownstairs." "Oh." Jeffrey got up from the step, his legs numb and almost stumbled, nearly taking a spill.
The two towering figures, one after another, descended the stairs; both strikingly handsome, the kind that could steal one's gaze.
Luckily, it was early, and the neighborhood was quiet. Otherwise, there would surely be ssneaky photos taken.
To avoid drawing attention, Everett had deliberately taken Kevin's car.
Jeffrey didn't waste a second. He asked as they got in, "Why are you back, man?" Everett had shared his situation with Jeffrey, so the latter thought Everett would be out at Elysian Country for the tbeing.
"Can't stop worrying about her." What else could it be? "Man, you've got it rough,” Jeffrey said after thinking for a moment, then added, "Rougher than me." Everett glanced at him through the rear-view mirror, "Not as rough as you think, buddy. I've got two kids. Karen didn't agree, did she?" He could tell by Jeffrey's expression. Jeffrey muttered under his breath, now cozy in the comfortable seat, his drowsiness returning full force.
"She beggedto let her go." Everett said nothing, and just peered through the car window towards Dorothy's place.

"Everett, can you just stop looking? Dorothy's not going to show up, man!" Finally, Everett pulled his gaze away, shooting Jeffrey a frosty look, "You standing at her door isn't going to make Karen want to keep the kid." "Feez!" Jeffrey propped himself up, smirking, "Let's not cut each other down. We're both in the sboat of misery here. I won't call you out on it, but you can't tellyou didn't rush back because Kenneth was at this apartment yesterday, staying till dark. I won't expose you, so let's not go for the heart, alright?" Everett's eyes darkened, his handsface clouded with displeasure.
"Looks like you've cto terms with Karen not wanting the kid." "What choice do I have? She doesn't want to be a stepmom, can't accept Paige's kid. I get it, it's tough. Whatever decision she makes, I have no right to blher." He hated himself for being so utterly powerless.
e "So, the whole issue between you two is because of your ex's kid?" "Seems so, otherwise she might have m forgiven me." Everett extended his well-defined hand, grabbing a lab report from the glove compartment and tossing it to him. "What's this?" "The blood test results of your ex's kid."
