Amanda was nobody's fool. She eyed Dorothy's sudden offer of reconciliation with suspicion, "You're actually willing to drop the appeal?" Dorothy smiled, "Yeah! I was naive before and wanted to fight for justice. But now, I see the light. You can't fight a hopeless battle." "You should've realized that sooner! Maybe I'll consider your years of dedication to the Lopez kids and throw a little extra cash your way," Amanda said, her tone always reeking of haughty entitlement, as if speaking with her was a divine favor.

"How about the day after tomorrow? I'll send you the address. Calone." "Alone?" Amanda's instincts kicked in. "What are you planning?" "What can I do to you in broad daylight? If I harm you, I'm signing my own death warrant, especially since I don't have the mighty Lopez family's power to hide behind." By laying it out so bluntly, Dorothy aimed to quell Amanda's doubts.

"Ha! As if you'd dare! But why insist oncoming alone?" "It's just given my history with Everett. You know how it is —if he finds out, this won't end quietly. I'm tired, and I don't want to deal with him. I just want to take the money and vanish." Perhaps thinking of her son, Amanda weighed her options and agreed, "Fine, the day after tomorrow it is! But don't try anything funny. Eldorria City isn't your playground." "Relax, no place is my playground. I'm well aware." Otherwise, she wouldn't have lost such a clear-cut case.

Dorothy had to down an entire bottle before she felt the buzz.

Over the past month, her tolerance had increased, and it was getting harder to get drunk.

Now, she was careful-locking the apartment door and stashing her phone to avoid drunken dialing.

Waking the next morning with a hangover, Dorothy stumbled out of the bedroom only to find two unexpected guests on her couch-Karen and Kenneth.

Seeing Dorothy, Kenneth bolted up, "You're awake, Dorothy." "Uh-huh." She nodded and was a bit out of the loop, "What brings you guys here...?" "You have the nerve to ask! I tried calling you, but you didn't answer, and then your phone was off. Kenneth heard about the verdict and we were scared you'd do something rash, so we rushed over!" Karen had been so worried she nearly had a premature labor.

"I'm okay, just had a few drinks," Dorothy said, embarrassed. "Sorry for scaring you, Karen, Kenneth." "No need to apologize; we understand you're upset," Karen walked over and hugged her. "But don't do anything ve foolish! Kent Kenneth said there's still a chance to appeal." "Absolutely!" Kenneth chimed in eagerly. "We can find a better lawyer, make an appeal! There's always a way to seek justice!" Dorothy nodded noncommittally, "Yeah, there's always a way. I believe that. Don't worry." "I'll go grab us sbreakfast so you don't get an upset stomach." After everyone had their say, Kenneth felt a bit awkward lingering, so he made an excuse to step out.

Once he left, Karen let out a sigh. "Ah! Can you imagine Kenneth marrying someone like Eleanor? If I were her, I'd never marry a guy like him!"
