The moment Kenneth caught sight of Dorothy walking in, it was as though a spark had ignited within his eyes.
But before he could even muster a greeting, his gaze fell upon Everett, who trailed closely behind her.
So, they've reconciled, he thought.
She was, after all, meant to be with that man.

Everett casually draped his arm over her shoulder, a silent declaration of his claim on her.
This halted Kenneth in his tracks. He retracted the step he had begun towards Dorothy, and he resigned himself to stand still.
Jeffrey, noticing Everett, excused himself from his in-laws and approached.
"Dorothy, Everett and I need to have a word." He said.
"Go ahead! I'll just be here," Dorothy responded with a smile, thinking they were about to discuss swork-related matters and not dare to intrude.
Everett pursed his lips and whispered to her, "Stay right here and don't go anywhere. I'll be right back." "Okay." Once Jeffrey had led Everett to a secluded stairwell in the hospital corridor, he inquired, "What's going on with Dorothy?" "It's Quincy," Everett revealed, seeing no need to hide the truth from Jeffrey.
Jeffrey froze, a look of disbelief spreading across his face as he asked, "Are you sure it's her?" "She confessed," Everett replied. There was no one else but Quincy who could target Dorothy, and also target her with such capability.
"Damn! That wench! So, what's your plan? If it's tricky for you to make a move, I can step in for you," Jeffrey disdained the backstabbers evidently.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThat woman knew targeting Everett directly was futile, so she went after Dorothy instead.
Such cowardice! "The antidote is with her, so we can't act rashly," Everett stated. If not for the need for the antidote, he wouldn't have considered involving Jeffrey. He intended to make Quincy and her family pay dearly! But now was not the time.
While Everett remained composed, Jeffrey couldn't hide his frustration, "Everett, sometimes I really feel for you! You, with all your power and freedom, yet so constrained by all these troubles! Your parents are one thing, and now there's Dorothy! And why couldn't she be more cautious and more vigilant? Where's that aloofness when she needed it?" How could she let her guard down so easily? And now that posed another threat to Everett!
Hearing Jeffrey's dissatisfaction with Dorothy, Everett's brows furrowed, his voice carrying a warning, "Don't talk about her like that." "I'm just pissed! These people always target Dorothy because they know she's your weakness! As your buddy, it infuriates me!" "If someone targeted Karen, you'd do the same." Jeffrey paused. He was at a loss for words. He understood, but it didn't ease his concern.
He just felt Everett was cornered!
He had spent his best years chasing Dorothy, and now that w that they weren finally together, his parents were causing chaos. And with the lawsuit involving his parents not yet resolved, Quincy pops up.
Without Dorothy, Everett wouldn't be in this situation. Without Dorothy, no one could stand against him.
"If Quincy can concoct an antidote, I'll have someone work, work on finding an solution too. There's always a way out." Everett said. "But you're at Quincy's mercy until then, right?" Everett's response was firm, "I can't let anything happen to Dorothy."
