"Everett!" Dorothy felt a shiver run through her entire body.
"I'm here." "You're just in your thirties! You can't throw away your future because of me! We're from different worlds. I'm just another face in the crowd, but you, you're like the shining star that's so unique and irreplaceable!" She wasn't born into expectations. She was devoid of loving parents or a happy childhood, not even the average family life most kids take for granted.
Despite trying hard, she ended up attending just an average high school and university.
Dorothy always thought of herself as too ordinary.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLost in the crowd and easily replaceable.
But Everett was different. He was the sole heir to the Lopez family, the CEO of Lopez Corporation, and the decision-maker for over a hundred subsidiaries.
How could she ever compare? Without him, the future of Lopez Corporation could hardly be deemed bright.
"Forget about whether I'm the star or not, I'm giving you this conclusion." Dorothy didn't say a word.
"I don't want to hear about the gaps between us. I can't deny the big differences in our social standings. But remember this, if you die, let your soul wait forjust a little bit, and I'll surely cfind you." Dorothy frowned, "Everett..." "So, do you want us to die together?" he pressed.
"You've lost your mind." Everett chuckled, "I lost it a long tago, not just now." Ever since he had eyes only for Dorothy, Jeffrey had called him crazy. And who in their right mind would take their own mother to court? Everett didn't deny it. He was crazy to the bone.
Dorothy tried to persuade him to change his mind, but Everett's gaze already conveyed his answer.
It took her a moment to gather her thoughts, "Is this... skind of threat?" "If you think it is, then it is.' 11 "Everett, I really think you're the one who needs to see a shrink." Everett shrugged, "I don't need one. I've got the best medicine." Dorothy was confused.
"As long as you're alive, I'm fine." He explained.
"I mean that YOU are too obsessive! Have you ever considered that you just have your eyes onbecause never really been with other women? If you tried to be with someone else..." Everett interrupted softly, "Dorothy, I've told you before that I'm a clean freak." "You mean you have a thing for virgins?" Dorothy bluntly interpreted, "Then you could easily find someone untouched!" With Everett's status, finding a woman who hadn't been with someone else wouldn't be hard at all.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"No." He sounded helpless, "Strictly speaking, I have a thing for being someone's first and only. The first timem with someone, I'm committed to them for life and unable to touch another." Dorothy was speechless.
This was a first for her.
"What if I never let you touch me?" she asked.
Everett gave a wry smile, "I'll wait." It's not like he hadn't waited before. Years had passed this way.
"And what if, hypothetically, I died? Wouldn't you be alone forever?" she pressed.
"I told you, if you die, I'd die too." Dorothy opened her mouth but found herself at a loss for words.
Everett pondered and then said gravely, "I wonder this is all karma."
