Everett's fist connected with Jeffrey's jaw with a thud that echoed through the air.

"Ugh... What the hell, man?" Jeffrey stumbled backward, fighting for balance.

"That's for Karen's dad." Jeffrey was taken aback.

Dorothy's head whipped around at the sound of Jeffrey's voice.

Karen, on the other hand, was the picture of composure. She hadn't caught their exchange, but she swiftly concluded that Jeffrey had it coming. "Serves him right!" she said. S~earch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

"What are they on about?" "How should I know!" Karen blinked innocently, "But if Everett's schooling Jeffrey, it's definitely for something Jeffrey did." Dorothy chuckled with resignation, "You two are thick as thieves now, huh?" They were always at each other's throats, but there was a straightforwardness about their relationship.

"What can I say? He's like a bad penny, always turning up! But honestly, when we first split, I really thought it was over between us." "I know." It was clear to Dorothy.

Karen was nothing if not resilient, always ready to let go and move on.

"Enough about us. What about you and Everett? Jeffrey mentioned Everett call the way back from Liberty City just to see you. He dropped a ton of work for this." Dorothy paused, then met Karen's gaze, "We're... we're managing." Karen patted her shoulder, nodding towards the two kids playing nearby.

Having grown up abroad with Kenneth, Langston had developed a certain independence and a keen sense of perception - something Dorothy was well aware of.

"Don't worry. Since I promised I'd come, I won't let the kids pick up on anything." "Good, your word is all I need!" With that, Karen pranced off to find Jeffrey.

Langston, busily assembling his LEGO bricks, suddenly looked up.

He noticed his mom and dad standing far apart, hardly interacting, and it struck him as odd.

He tugged on Karen's sleeve, whispering in her ear, "Aunt Karen, are my mom and dad fighting?" "Of course not!" "But Dad always holds Mom's hand when he's not carrying anything. Why isn't he today?" Karen glanced over, and even she couldn't deny the tension.
