NovelOnlineLook at Mr. Turner here, beyond saving! You try to console the guy, and he won't have any of it." Wesley's remark sent the two women beside him into fits of laughter, waving dismissively at Jeffrey, e on, if she's got you all riled up, stepping out for sair isn't the end of the world! A man's gotta have a social life, right?” "No more drinking for me, I'm out." Jeffrey felt that even a night out at the bar couldn't lift his spirits; he might as well head hand cuddle his daughter! With that, he didn't even look back as Wesley called after him, striding towards the exit.
Reaching the doorway of the bar, Jeffrey lit up a cigarette and had barely taken a puff when his phone buzzed with a call from Everett.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Where you at?" From Everett's tone, Jeffrey could tell something was off, but he brushed it aside, thinking it was his own issue, not suspecting something might have happened on Everett's end.
"Just out... chatting with sbuddies, what's up? Plans changed on you?" "What buddies are you chatting with, a lady?" Everett cut straight to the chase, “Karen tried calling you, and a woman answered! You better think of an explanation, I'm heading to Bay Residence now to pick up Dorothy, see if I can smooth things over." "What?!" By the tEverett arrived at Bay Residence, Dorothy was all packed up and waiting for him.
She had intended to go by herself, but Everett, worried about her well-being, insisted on apanying her.
"That Karen, she's got quite the arm on her! Pushedso hard, I was still reeling when she bolted!" Dorothy had hoped to keep her at Bay Residence, then have Jeffreye over so they could contain the situation and resolve it more amicably.
But Karen had slipped away! "She pushed you?" Everett immediately frowned, giving her a once-over, "You alright?" Dorothy waved it off, "She wasn't out to hurt me, how could she? I'm just worried about Karen and him, they're bound to start arguing again!" "This Jeffrey, why's he always ending up in those places." Everett, oblivious to the full story, assumed Jeffrey was out seeking entertainment again, neglecting his wife and child at home.
"They had a fight, that's why Jeffrey left." Dorothy sighed, massaging her temples, "But fight or no fight, how could he let another woman answer the phone! With Karen's temper, I don't see an easy fix." Seeing the worry etched on her face, Everett reached over the console to hold her hand, sharing his warmth with Dorothy. Chapter 1156 2 Dorothy looked up at him, a small smile on her lips, "I believe in you! I know you can do it." "Yeah, just trust me." "Once the poison is cured, I want to exercise more, build up my strength, and then... give you another healthy baby one you'll have to take care of all by yourself!" A way to make up for all the lost time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEverett paused for a moment, his lips curving into a smile, "Alright, if your health allows it by then." He had stopped allowing himself to think about such matters! Dorothy's health had always been frail, and the poison, no doubt, had taken its toll, even if it were cured, she might not return to her former condition.
Having another child...
It takes a toll on a woman's health.
But to Everett, as long as Dorothy was alive and well, what did those regrets matter? mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fifl0&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1
