Everett, the CEO of Lopez Corporation, was not known for taking the humble road in love. Yet, here he was, head over heels for a woman for more than a decade, enough tfor men like Jeffrey to father a soccer team's worth of children...

"I can't stand seeing fear in her eyes," Everett admitted. Sear*ch the Findwebsite on Gøøgle to access chapters of early and in the highest quality.

Everett had tried to be more assertive. He had thought about keeping Dorothy close, disregarding her personality and her fears, making her his and his alone. But all it took was a glimpse of panic in her eyes, and he was defeated.

No strategy could work against that.

"Man, you are totally whipped," Jeffrey couldn't help but admire, "Remember how I had to pull scrazy stunts to make Karen my wife? I was pretty proud of myself until I saw you. Next to you, I look like a brute, as if I don't love Karen." "Karen and Dorothy are entirely different," Everett pointed out.

Just by comparing their upbringing, the difference was night and day.

Karen was the apple of her parents' eye. While Dorothy had carried the weight of her family on her shoulders from a young age. "Everett, whenever I see how far you're willing to go for Dorothy, it's like you're radiating motherly love," Jeffrey teased. "I never imagined that capturing your heart required a damsel in need of saving." Everett frowned at him. "I only want to save her. Everyone else is irrelevant to me." This tDorothy's unconsciousness was different from any before.

It was as if the TV suddenly lost power, Dorothy was completely devoid of consciousness. When she woke up, she even thought she was still in the car, heading back to the hotel with Everett.

"How did I end up here?" Trying to sit up, Dorothy noticed the IV needles in each of her arms. Her movement caused a bit of blood to backflow...

"Don't move," Everett gently pushed her back onto the bed, waiting for the blood to disappear before relaxing. "You fainted. The doctor said you need to eat well and rest." "How long was I out? What tis it?" "Not long. It's seven in the evening now." Dorothy looked at him, feeling as if she was floating or walking on clouds. Everything seemed surreal.

"I've been asleep for so long." "Yeah, once you've had your IV, you can get out of bed, but rest a bit more first." Everett got up to fetch the warm milk he had prepared for her "Have sit'll give you a bit of strength." Dorothy didn't feel like eating anything, but seeing how he was geing out of his way to take care of her, it was hard to say no. Watching her slowly sip the milk, Everett felt a weight lift off his chest.

"Am I staying in the hospital tonight?" She noticed it was already dark m outside

"The doctor suggested it, in case you feel unwell again." "But I want to go back. I don't like the smell here.” She had smelled it too often throughout her life! Alright, then we'll go back," Everett checked her forehead for fevert "You're not feverish, so it should be okay." "I meant back to the hotel," Dorothy's lips cracked as she spoke, "Not Bay Residence." He still smiled, gently running his fingers through her hair.

"I know." "I want... to be alone at the hotel." "That's not an option," Everett's refusal was gentle. "You're sick, so try to be good."
