You may think that the truth will prevail, but what if Dorothy’s been playing the victim and gainingsympathy all this time? You know what they say, pillow talk is the most dangerous type of talk”.
Heather laughed at his exaggerated expression and waved him off. “It’s actually perfect liming Everett’smom is in the country I can take advantage of the investigation to slack off and spend some time withher. Don’t you dare mess this up for me.”
Jeffrey just stared at her then sighed after a good while. ‘You really spoil Everett, don’t you? At thisrate, when will he ever realize your worth?”
“It’s not like I’m coing all this for him to see. I genuinely like his mom and see her as my own mother.”
Jeffrey nodded, then suddenly asked. “By the way, why haven’t heard much about your father over theyears? He and your mother must have been very much in love to have produced such a tender andconsiderate daughter like you.”
“Yes. They were very much in love.”
But they were not mamed
Everett parked the car in front of a restaurant
He had already ordered the food on the way, and they were led to a private room as soon as theyentered.
Dorothy didn’t think she was hungry, but seeing the exquisite food on the table made her stomachgrowl
Everen personally disinfected her fork and knife and them in front of her.
After a few bites, Dorothy suddenly remembered something You just came back like this? What aboutLumina Bay?”
The original business trip plan was far from ever
Kevin will handle it for me.”
“Can it work without you there for such a key project? Dorothy wasn’t dumb she knew that I Kevin couldhandle the project without Everett, he wouldn’t have rushed to Lumina Bay right after returning fromVerdant Cy.
Everett added a piece of beef to her bowl, ‘Once everything is settled here, I’ll go over
Her hand holding the fork paused. Don’t let my issue delay the project. Go back to Lumina Bay, I canhandle myself.”
“Dorothy I want to protect you
No matter how hard the road ahead was, he wanted to stand in front of Dorothy and shield her fromany harm.
Upon hearing Pis, Dorothy immediately lowered her head, pretending not to hear it
But her heart was in a mess.
What did he mean?
Protect her?
“Eat more. No matter what happens, your health is still the most important thing‘ Everett didn’t expectany response from her.
This woman always chose to escape anyway, and he didnt want to push her to accept too quickly.
“Let’s move back to Bay Résidence tonight. I’m afraid that it’s not safe for you to stay at Karen’s.”
Dorothy was taken aback. It seemed that he had returned to Bay Residence and saw that she hadmoved all her belongings.
“No, I’m not used to living there. if. If there’s anything you can call me, and Ill come over.”
The thought of the strawbemes in the fridge and everything Everest had done there for Heather madeher feel repulsed by Bay Residence.
How could she move back now?
“Karen’s neighborhood is too ordinary, the secunty isn’t great. If someone kidnapped you, you wouldn’teven know who to call for help.”
“How do you know where Karen lives?!”
also know that Kenneth has been frequenting Karen’s place ever since you moved there.”
He even investigated that? Wasn’t he being a bit too intrusive?
