Chapter 479

Heather had a knack for drama, and it might just be her way of dodging the bullet.

Everett wasn’t buying it, though

To be fair, as a tycoon who could move mountains in the business world, sharp wits wem a necessity. He was on his toes around *anyone and everyone, except Dorothy

“Man, I was such a fool back in the day Jeffrey greaned, wishing he could time travel and slap some sense into his younger sell. “Heather had me believing you were only into Dorothy because you had a spat with her, and because she looked like Heather! I believed her

And honestly, they indeed resemble each other!

The logic seemed sound.

Dorothy’s body stiffened at the mention. The thought of her blood ties with Heather made her feel nauseous

“I need some air, she muttered, not wanting her discomfort to be noticed, especially by Everett,

Karen, finding the atmosphere stifling chimed in ’11 join you!”

Everett watched Dorothy’s hurried departure with a slight frown. She doesn’t look too hot. Have a doc check her cut, will you?”

“Don’t worry with Karen by her side, Dorothy’s in good hands. Jonathan’s arranging for a dae to look at her leg tomorrow. Looks like after all this mess, your folks are warming up to her.”

Jeffrey was stunned to see Dorothy in the private hospital

Knowing Fweretts parents, he’d figured they d turn up their noses at Dorothy’s background. Yet here she was, caring for Everest, with them giving her space and everything

Talk about a tum for the books!

“I think she’s hiding something from me, Everett mused, not nearly as optimistic.

He knew his parents all too well. Something was off, but he also knew that prying inte Dorothy’s secrets was a dead end

Maybe it was her upbringing her family history, but this didn’t come easy to Dorothy. Even without meaning to doubt, her heart was guarded, her inst never fully given, always with a hint of reservation

Outside the hospital Karen wheeled Dorothy down to the ground floor.

Evening had settled in, the twilight gently enveloping the surroundings. All was quiet, save for the neatly arranged forest that stretched out before them

They neither spoke until Karen couldn’t hold back any longer. “Dorothy, give Kenneth a call, will you? He’s really worried.” Dorothy paused, her voice a soft whisper “Could you tell him for me? I’m not sure how to face him right now”

Kenneth’s love was both overwhelming and tender, a push and pull that left Dorothy at a loss.

She’d tumed him down time and again, yet he took it all in stride–no anger, no storming off. Instead, he protected her like an older brother except that he wouldn’t go find himself another girl

Karen sighed. “Kenneth’s head over heels, you know. I’ve tried talking sense into him behind the scenes, and his folks are pressuring him, too. But he just won’t budge. It’s like his smile only comes to life when you’re around”

“Karen, I can’t retum Kenneth’s feelings!”

“I know! And so does he! Karen regretted ever playing matchmaker.

No happy ending was one thing, but to get Kenneth deeply in love was quite another.
