"Karen, if | agree to this, | might as well not even exist." Dorothy's principle had always been not to inconvenience anyone. If she were to actually marry Kenneth just to maintain her lie, sure, the lie would be covered, but what about Kenneth? What if he found someone he truly loved and wanted to marry her in the future? How would he explain his previous marriage? "But he volunteered for this." Karen said, her face full of sincerity. "I've talked to him about it. He's willing to go along with the act.

He doesn't even mind the child you're carrying for Everett. If you agree, he can tell his parents that the baby is his. It would all make perfect sense.” "No.

"Why do you push people away like this? What's wrong with Kenneth?" Sometimes Karen really didn't understand what Dorothy was thinking.

If it were her, this would be the perfect time to ask for help. Someone was willing to help her, without any pressure at all. Why was it so hard for her to simply nod? If she were Dorothy, she would have agreed a long time ago.

“Karen, he’s your own cousin, and you're just going to ruin him like this?" Dorothy was at a loss. "He's just too young to understand. He'll regret it later.” "Adults have to take responsibility for their actions. Whether he will regret it or not, that's for the future to decide. But don’t you see that he really likes you?! I've never seen him like this before.” Karen secretly wished the two of them could be together.

Even though Dorothy was carrying Everett's child, which wasn't the best situation, she didn't feel comfortable letting her best friend marry another man.

Rather than that, why not have her marry her own cousin, whom she thought of as a brother? At least she knew him well.

"I know you mean well, and | know Kenneth has good intentions, but | can't do this." "Do you plan to never find someone else and raise this child alone? You're still so young, and children need a father figure.” Karen tried to persuade her from another angle. "Even if you've given up for yourself, you should think about the child. You decided to keep it, so you should try to give it a complete family. You should know how it feels to grow up without a father." Dorothy looked down in silence.

Yes, she knew.

"I'll think about it later. | might look for someone." Since she was young, she decided not to follow the same path as her mother.

She used to think that if there was a man who could enter her mother's heart, even halfway, then her mother wouldn't have been so bitter. At least she could let go of the past.

Now that she was in the same situation, she didn't want to be as stubborn as her mother.

"So, Kenneth..." "But it will never be him." She wouldn't drag such a good man down with her.

Everett didn't receive any response from Dorothy.

Their relationship suddenly felt like it had regressed to the way it was before.

Before their reunion, Everett would open Dorothy's WhatsApp contact countless times in the quiet of the night, trying to say something to her, anything, but in the end, he couldn't think of what to say.

Now, his messages sank again like a stone in the ocean.

In the CEO's office of the Lopez Corporation, Everett frowned, put away his phone, stood up, and headed towards the floor-to- ceiling window.

"Knock, knock." Someone was knocking on the door outside.

"Come in." As the door opened, Kevin walked in.

"Mr. Lopez, | looked into Dorothy's medical examination that day."
