"I'm worried about your health..." "Me? I'm fit as a fiddle! Look at me, being all good and even put work on hold. I did it all to ease your mind, and if you're still stressed, then it seems I've wasted my efforts," Dorothy feigned annoyance. "If you keep piling this pressure on yourself, I'm going back to work tomorrow! No matter what I do, you seem determined to weigh yourself down." Everett pulled her into a tight embrace, holding her close.

"I'm terrified of losing you." "Don't be scared. We'll always be together." Dorothy gently stroked his back, "Life's got its ups and downs, right? I believe the man upstairs saw I'd end up with you, such a huge blessing, and worried others might find it unfair. So, he threw these challenges my way! I take them in stride." Truth be told, whether there was a cure or not, Dorothy didn't fret over it as much as Everett did.

He hadn't tasted much bitterness in life, so he couldn't empathize with Dorothy on the slevel. But she was different.

Just being by Everett's side, enjoying all the moments together, was beyond Dorothy's wildest dreams.

She really wasn't obsessed with clinging to life.

Jeffrey immediately drove to the hospital, trying to call Karen on the way, but she didn't pick up. It was Keh's sister. "How's she doing, Keh?" "All good, have you finished up with your things?" Now, speaking to Keh felt genuinely like talking to a relative.

It was simple, yet there was a sense of closeness.

"Yeah, guess I'm done for now. Karen's really okay?" Jeffrey was always worried about his wife's pregnancy.

The last one was nerve-wracking.

And this time, it hadn't been smooth sailing either.

"She's fine. Why would I lie to you? Perfect timing for you to pick her up from the hospital, I've got sthings to handle." "Alright." Hanging up, Jeffrey felt something was off but couldn't pin it down at the moment.

As he neared the hospital, it clicked.

Keh, something's not right here! Seriously not right! Karen, with her big mouth, must et have spilled the beans to Keh about Everett and Dorothy. Why else would he be there for a prenatal Wckup? en.kikistories But knowing all this, why hadn't he asked Jeffrey a single question over the phone? That was out of character for Keh.

If Everett was the first person to love Dorothy, then Keh was undoubtedly the second.

If Everett wasn't his good buddy, he might have even tried to set Keh up with Dorothy through Karen. That's true love! No joke.

Arriving at the hospital, Jeffrey headed straight for the maternity ward.

The checkup was all done. Keh was holding a hospital bag, casually chatting with Karen.

Seeing Jeffrey, Karen approached him and blurted out, “Quincy's really gone?" "Yeah." Jeffrey nodded. "I told you." "You did, but I thought there et I be shope..." After all, with swne today's medical technology, there might have been a chance to save him! en.kikistories "What hope could there be? Lane went straight for Quincy's throat Burned his face, chopped off his hands, nearly did everything but dismember him." The thought still made Jeffrey queasy! en.kikistories He considered himself to have a strong stomach, but even he couldn't help feeling unsettled.
