Chapter 1391 When Karen vented her frustration, not even Everett and Dorothy could find the words to defend Jeffrey. They exchanged glances, and Dorothy, with a light chuckle, steered Karen aside. "You've been looking forward to this trip to Everglow City for ages, right? Why let a little hiccup ruin your mood? That's all in the past now." That was about the best consolation Dorothy could muster.

Dorothy had to admit she was at a loss. Karen wasn't jealous; she was offended about a comment on her figure! Meanwhile, Jeffrey, looking utterly distressed, approached Everett and suddenly rested his head on his shoulder. "Man, you're the wise one. Only ever had one girlfriend who turned into a wife. None of this for you! I'm at the point where I wish I could just go 'John Wick' on my exes!" Everett stepped back, then patted his shoulder sympathetically.
"You asked for it." "Hey! Are you even my brother? Kickingwhen I'm down?" Jeffrey glared. "And what's with the pat? I'm not dirty, man. I took a shower, for crying out loud!" Throughout their night market adventure, Jeffrey lamented his choice in friends more than a dozen times.

After the call, Everett had already prepared a tray of washed and cut fruits for her, accompanied by schilled lemonade, always thoughtful of her needs. "Got a meeting tomorrow?" Dorothy leaned against the headboard, nibbling on sapple slices.
"Yeah, want to get things settled quickly so I can relax." "I'll cwith you." "Let's not," Dorothy sat up, popping a cherry into his mouth before he could protest. "It's a small project, and the dient is a mid-sized company. If they see you coming with me, they'd be starstruck. They might think they're dreaming." She didn't want their relationship to turn into tabloid fodder.
"If I come, it won't be as the CEO of Lopez Corporation. Consideryour...bodyguard." "How much is this bodyguard charging per day, then?" Everett smirked, "You decide." "Enough joking! Seriously, it'll be a quick meeting. Just look after Abigail and Langston, that's all sw
As she reached for her phone again, Everett gently took 1X from her hands. "What now?"
"I feel like you love your job more m than you lovethese days." The than you on content is on novelenglish.net! "Dorothy, what's more important? Your work or me?"
She sighed, moving closer to wrap her arms around Everett's waist, Do I even have to answer that? Of course, you're more important! When did you start getting jealous OH work?"
