Karen had been hoping to catch a glimpse of the handsome guy’s real face once he woke up from hisslumber. But throughout the entire ten–hour flight, he remained sound asleep.
Eventually, Kan even started to wonder if he had passed out.
“Well, he did have a bandage wrapped around his head
As the plane touched down at Mellamo Airport, the man finally stirred to consciousness. He rubbed hisbleary eyes and began to make a phone call.
Eavesdropping on other people’s conversations wasn’t Karen’s thing, so she bent her head down andstarted to gather her belongings, readying herself to disembark.
But then, as if by chance, she thought she heard the name “Dorothy”
“Dorothy’s there too? Alright… I got it, I head straight over… Everett’s still out cold, huh? Sigh,Jonathan, we’ll talk when I get there.”
Karen couldn’t help but stare at him, herbaffled look catching his attention.
They locked eyes for a moment before Karen broke the silence, “You know… Dorothy?”
He scrutinized her from head to toe, squinting slightly. “You’re Dorothy’s friend? Named..” “Karen!”
“I knew I wasn’t wrong,” he said before turning to leave.
Karen reached out and grabbed his arm, “You haven’t told me who you are yet!”
He frowned and glanced at Karen’s hand on his sleeve, “Why are you making a scene?”
Karen let go, still fixated on him, “Can you tell me now?
“Even if I told you, you wouldn’t know who I am! Jeffrey, ting any bells?”
“Ah?” Karen suddenly connected the dots, “You’re Heather’s sucker, the guy that’s madly in love withher? You even approached Dorothy about breaking up with Everen?
Jeffrey bristled at that “Who are you calling a sucker?
“That would be you! If not, why bother sticking your nose into it when Dorothy and Everett are alreadymarried? You can’t deny you’re Heather’s sucker!”
Karen had never met Jeffrey in person, but she had heard plenty about his antics!
Especially the time when Everett was in a car accident and Jeffrey had made things difficult for Dorothyat the hospital, Karen hadn’t forgotten that.
What did he say again? Oh, night! He said Dorothy was not worth Heather lifting a finger for!
Karen vividly remembered Dorothy coming to her with a hoarse voice and a bright red slap mark on hercheek, asking if she could crash for a few days.
Dorothy had tried to claim she had bumped into something, but who gets a bruise like that on theirface? It wasn’t until after much probing that Dorothy finally spilled the beans.
Now that Karen had come face–to–face with the culpnt, she was determined to got justice for her bestfriend!
Jeffrey, caught in an awkward moment and knowing he was in the wrong, muttered something aboutKaren being crazy before quickly grabbing his luggage and leaning
He had just come to after being in the hospital himself, eager to wam Everett about Heather, only tolearn that Everett had been stabbed and barely escaped death!
Despite his pan injunes, Jeffrey had humedly packed and rushed to Swevia Country
And as fate would have it, he bumped into Kaman!
Thinking back on his past actions, Jeffrey felt guilty, so making a quick getaway seemed like the smartchoice.
Following the location shared with her, Karon antired at the private hospital where Everett wasadmitted. And just like that, she found herself being stopped at the entrance.
“Let me in, I’m Everett’s friend!”
Karen struggled to define her relationship with Everett and ended up settling on friend:
“I’m sorry you can’t go in.”
“Hey, walt-“Karen was left standing outside, wondering how she’d get in when she turned around to seea car approaching/Talk about a run in with bad luck.
It was none other than Jeffrey sitting in that ear.
