As Everett's car rolled up to the front of Bay Residence, the atmosphere inside was buzzing with a blend of secrecy and anticipation.

Hearing the car, Langston swiftly grabbed his laptop, ready to bolt. As he dashed off, he couldn't resist throwing back a whispered warning, "Mom, don't tell Dad I spilled the beans, okay? Otherwise, I won't be able to sneak you his secrets anymore!" "Alright," she replied, though she knew if Everett guessed on his own, there wasn't much to be done.

The moment Everett stepped in, the scene unfolded before him.

Langston scampered off like a cat with its tail on fire.

Shedding his suit jacket and slipping into morefortable slippers, Everett approached Dorothy, "What's got into Langston? He looks like he's up to no good." "Just someputer trouble he wants your help with," she deflected smoothly.

"Alright, I'll change and look into it." For Everett, shedding his work attire for something more relaxed was a ritual, marking the shift from his professional to personal life. Unless a late-night international call demanded his attention, disrupting the family's private time, he did his best to keep his evenings free.

As he ventured into the bedroom to change into his casual wear, he felt arms wrap around him from behind it was Dorothy. "What's up?" he inquired, noting her clinginess today.

"It's been tough on you, hasn't it?" Dorothy expressed her concern warmly.

"Is this about Quincy?" Everett surmised.

She hesitated, then nodded, "Partly, but it's not just that. You're juggling work, dealing with Quincy over my antidote, and fending off rivals for my affection." Everett, piecing everything together especially from Langston's earlier behavior, quipped, "Did that little rascal tell you?" "He let it slip," she admitted.

Buttoning up, Everett couldn't help but smile wryly, "Well, can't help it if I've got so many rivals. Keh's situation isn't even fully resolved, and now I can't have Byte 7 adding to the ." Dorothy frowned slightly, "I never intended to get involved with them in any way!" "I know," Everett reassured her, pulling her close. "But I'm not about to let others set their sights on you without a fight. I've finally made you mine, and I'm not keen on sharing even a glance with anyone else, let alone those blatantly vying for your attention." "Byte 7 seems like he's still a kid at heart." Everett nodded, "Yeah, I've been keeping an eye on him since he joined thepany. Guy's definitely... immature. I asked him Ce why he fancied you. Guess what he said?" Dorothy raised an eyebrow, "He wanted to try dating someone older, just for the thrill of it?" "How did you know?!" Everett was taken aback.

She sighed, "Byte 7 toldhimself once." Frowning, Everett pressed, "He confessed to you? What exactly did he say?" "Relax, will you? It wasn't really a confession, more like him laying out his terms forto agree to. I think Byte 7 doesn't even understand what love is yet." "And here he is, trying to steal my girl without a clue." mmMwWLlilOfiflo&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLliI0fifl0&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflo&1
