"Wha-?" Kevin blinked, not catching the flurry of taps Mr. Lopez had executed on his smartphone. As a result, he was clueless and a tad startled. "Mr. Lopez, your schedule's packed with appointments. You're canceling all of them on such short notice?" he asked.
"I need to head back hfor a while, then I'll return after stime," Everett replied, tapping his fingers restlessly on the desk.
"Just say I've cdown with something nasty and can't meet anyone." "Got it, Mr. Lopez," Kevin said as he made his exit and glanced at his own phone screen.

After a few rings, a man's voice cthrough.
"Hello, this is Kenneth speaking. May I ask who's calling?" Kevin hung up immediately, a smirk spreading across his face.
Well, isn't that revealing? Tto book a flight! After Jeffrey and Karen entered the house, they mulled over how to break the news of their secret marriage and pregnancy.
Jeffrey's string of solemn promises and self-imposed penalties had had an effect. At least Derek wasn't as furious as they imagined.
Oh, wait. Maybe it was because today's main event hadn't unfolded yet.
With that in mind, Karen tugged on Jeffrey's sleeve, "You need to tell them about us registering our marriage." Jeffrey licked his lips nervously. "Now?" he lowered his voice.
"Yeah, while my dad's not angry." "And the baby? Should we tell them about that too?" Karen shook her head frantically, "No, no, no! My dad can't handle that just yet. Let's wait on that!" While they whispered to each other, Derek was the picture of calm, lounging on the couch as if waiting for someone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSoon, the doorbell rang! Karen's gaze snapped toward the sound- It was her cousin Kenneth! Jeffrey's heart sank a bit as well. Why on earth had Derek called Kenneth over? "Uncle," Kenneth greeted as he cin, carrying a basket of fruit and spastries.
"You could've just cby. No need for gifts." Derek's eyes crinkled with a smile as he pulled Kenneth aside. "I called you over for a bit of advice!" Kenneth glanced at Karen and Jeffrey sitting in the living room and caught on right away, "They made up." "You knew?" Derek was taken aback.
"Well, they're sitting together, aren't they? I know Karen well; if they hadn't patched things up, she would've booted Jeffrey out by now." Derek sighed, "I'm just... I'm not sure what to do. Your aunt and I have been worried sick, so we thought we'd get your take on things. Jeffrey gavethis unconditional property transfer agreement. Now, even if we don't care about his money, I figured it's a kind of security for Karen." "Letsee it," Kenneth suggested as they moved into the bedroom. He skimmed the contract Jeffrey had handed over earlier.
At first, he thought it was just a ploy by Jeffrey to ask for forgiveness. But after reading the fine print, it was clear Jeffrey wasn't leaving himself any room for error.
The contract was legally binding, and even Jeffrey's parents had signed off op it to signal their consent. "What do you think?" Derek peered at him eagerly.
"Uncle, to be honest... I knew they got back together," Kenneth confessed, his lips pressed into a thin line. "They O toldon my birthday "I thought as O mych. You and Karen are close; you must've known early on!" "Now that it's all out in the open, we should probably get their wedding sorted out sooner rather than later. Otherwise, Karen's baby bump won't wait." X
