"That's great, Kenneth, I'm genuinely happy for you." Of course, Dorothy didn't want to see Kenneth hobbling around for the rest of his life. He was such a proud man, accomplished too. Who would want to see him disabled? "Looks like you haven't been eating well lately, lost your appetite?" "Maybe, work's been hectic." "No matter how busy work gets, you can't skip meals! If you lose any more weight, you're going to start looking gaunt." Dorothy chuckled, "Well, gaunt it is then." Did she even care about her looks anymore? Kenneth's gaze lingered on Dorothy, and after a long moment, he sighed.

"Dorothy, you're still trying to act tough." Startled, Dorothy didn't respond.

"Fighting with Everett? Or is he... not treating you right?" "No, we're good," she quickly replied, fearing Kenneth might probe further.

But Dorothy underestimated how well Kenneth knew her.

After all, how could she hide anything from the man who had his heart set on her? "Don't lie to me. The more you do, the more I worry. Just be honest with me." Kenneth's voice grew heavier, and his eyes fell, "In fact, when Jeffrey deliberately mentioned you in front of me, I knew something was off because he usually wouldn't bring you up." || || "He thinks he's being sly, but not only me, Karen can see through him too! Still, we're clueless about what exactly happened between you two." Dorothy quickly said, "It's nothing, really. Just a little argument, and it's all good now." "You're definitely not okay." || || е "If you were still together, Everett would know you're here visitingin the hospital! This would be the the'd be frantically figuring out how to call you away from here, not lettingspend talone with you." UMS That's why Kenneth insisted Karen invite Dorothy over alone.

He wanted to test it.

To see if Everett was still as attentive as before.

Clearly, he wasn't.

Dorothy hadn't received a single call since she arrived.

"I... Everett's just swamped with work today, that's why he didn't..." "Then call him right now, tell him you're here with me." || The atmosphere tensed, silence falling between them.

As seconds ticked by, Dorothy sighed, "Kenneth, just focus on getting your leg treated! My issues, you really don't need to worry." "After all the effort Everett put into winning you over, why isn't he cherishing you?" Kenneth's tone was one of firm conviction.

He had already drawn his conclusions.

"What happens between us, it's our business." "Dorothy, stop pretending. I know what's on your mind; you're distancing yourself fromelbecause you think you're holdingback, right?" || || "See, I've tried too. Got myself a girlfriend, tried to move on and forget you. But I couldn't. I miss you more than ever! All I ended up doing was wasting Eleanor's time." hovelsDorothy pressed her lips together, "But I can never return your feelings, even if Everett and I break up, I won't be with you." "But at least! During this tyou're arguing with him, I don't want you to be alone in Eldorria City. I want to be there for you."
