He definitely saw Karen, but he turned his face with lightning speed! "Could you step on it, please? Thank you!" As the taxi pulled up to the entrance of the private hospital, Karen was already poised to dash inside, not even waiting for the car door to swing open.

She was blocking the way; Jeffrey's car couldn't get through either! "You really can't come in here. This is private property, and trespassing is against the law!" The security guard at the door was clearly at his wit's end.

"I can't go in, but why can he?" Karen pointed at Jeffrey in the car, "He's one of Heather's friends, and Everett getting hurt was Heather's fault. Maybe Jeffrey was in on it with her!" The guard was flustered, not quite catching the drift of her accusations.

But Jeffrey inside the car could hear her loud and clear! He hurriedly got out, striding over with long steps and clamped his hand over Karen's mouth.

"Would you mind not spouting nonsense?" This was the Lopez family's turf. If Everett's parents heard this, they might just get the wrong idea! "Mmmph! Mmm!" Karen's muffled protests rang out as she glared daggers, thrashing her arms and legs in defiance.

Jeffrey didn't need to let go to know she was spitting fire with her words.

"Let me make this clear, cut the chatter or I'll have you thrown out!" "Mmph! Mmm!" Karen was livid. In a flash of inspiration, she bit down hard on the flesh of Jeffrey's palm.

"Ouch!" Jeffrey yelped, instinctively stepping back, "Are you a freakin’ dog or something?" "You started it, | was about to pass out!" Karen's face was flushed from the struggle, but her feisty didn’t die down , "You and your pals picking on Dorothy, now you're after me? You think Dorothy's easy to push around, but I'm not letting anyone walk all over me!" "Who's picking on you?" Jeffrey was at his wit's end. If only he hadn't told her who he was! "You're the one blocking my way, not the other way around!" Karen glanced at him, then back at the gates, raising an eyebrow.

"You want me to shut up? Fine, but then you've got to take me with you!" Jeffrey's mouth twitched in annoyance. Who knew what kind of scene she'd cause inside? "No way." "Fine!" Karen nodded, turned back to the gates, and cleared her throat, "Jeffrey! He's in cahoots with Heather, pushing Everett to dump Dorothy and—mmph!" Before she could finish, the hand that had just been bitten was covering her mouth again! "I can't even deal with you! I'll take you in, okay? But you have to promise me, once we're inside, no wandering off, no nonsense! You just want to be with Dorothy, right? Then stick by her side and behave! You don't know the whole story, so don't go spouting off about it!" Karen, satisfied with the deal, quickly nodded her agreement.

Jeffrey finally breathed a sigh of relief. As he let go, Karen muttered under her breath, "Not much of a man, huh." "What did you say?" "I was talking about you. Too chicken to admit your feelings for Heather, aren't you?" "That was in the past! A long time ago!" Now, just the thought of Heather made Jeffrey wish he'd never met her.

Heather used to be gentle, caring, a real catch, so it was only natural for Jeffrey to have had a thing for her.

"You're over her now?" "What's it to you." Jeffrey grabbed her by the arm and turned to the hospital's guard, "This is a friend of mine. We're going in together, just open the door."
