Everett watched her silently for a long time before he finally spoke up, his voice slow and deliberate. "But... what if, and I'm just saying what if, the verdict isn't what you're hoping for?" Like, say, only Heather gets the death sentence.

Dorothy's eyes twinkled briefly before she smiled. "Look, you don't need to worry about it. I've told you I'm prepared for any outcome. You should back out of this." "I'm not comfortable with leaving you to handle this alone." "If you keep getting involved, you'll never have peace of mind." She knew all too well how busy he was and the kind of pressure he was under. She didn't want to add to it, and she didn't want to be a part of it.

"So, are you still going to give me an answer once this is all over? Will you still honor that promise?" "Absolutely!" Dorothy laughed. "I won't go back on my word, rest assured." "Alright." Dorothy had no idea that Jonathan had returned from abroad nor that he had met with his son. So, it was a complete surprise when Jonathan suddenly reached out to her! Jonathan: [Meet me at the entrance of the resort. Don't let Everett find out.] Dorothy really didn't want to go. But she knew if she kept avoiding Jonathan, he would just make things difficult for Everett! Thus, might as well meet and lay things out clearly.

While Everett was tied up in a video conference, Dorothy threw on a coat and hurried to the resort entrance.

Sure enough, from a distance, she could see Jonathan's car.

Ever since their last encounter in Swevia Country, they hadn't been in touch. Seeing him now, Dorothy was taken aback.

Jonathan had lost a lot of weight since their last meeting. Was it because of the trouble with Everett's mother? "Ms. Sanchez,” Jonathan began, the moment she approached, "you promised me that a month after Swevia Country, you'd hand over the children to the Lopez family and cut all ties with my son.” "Well, you should be talking to your son about that." She had kept her end of the bargain. It wasn't her fault Everett hadn't.

Jonathan didn't seem angry; he actually smiled. "I can see that you truly love Everett. It's clear to me. That's why it's so hard for you two to sever ties completely.” "So, what's your point?" He got straight to the point. "If you're willing to drop the charges against Everett's mother, then the Lopez family is ready to welcome you into the fold." Dorothy didn't reply.

Unlike Everett, Dorothy took a moment to look at every photo in the album seriously.

It was evident that he had been pampered from a young age. Every smile, every birthday, and every holiday was captured, preserving his image on each of those days.

"Have you shown these photos to Everett?" she asked.

"Yes, but he didn't look at them," Jonathan admitted. "There's a lot he can't face right now, and it's all because of you." "I've never had a family portrait." Dorothy suddenly spoke up. "You're right. Everett and |, we've always been different from the start."
