Seeing Everett still hesitant, Dorothy did something she rarely did; she grabbed his arm and gently shook it, her voice laced with a playful whine, "I won't leave your sight, and is that not enough? How can I not be there for Karen in such a critical time?" If Dorothy were in perfect health, Everett would have no qualms about letting her go! But now, with Dorothy's unpredictable fainting spells...

"You really have to go?" "Yes! I must." Everett let out a soft sigh, knowing he would eventually give in to her, "Alright, but you have to listen toat the hospital. If you feel unwell, you must tellimmediately, no hiding." Dorothy nodded quickly, "I will!" The hospital was the last place Dorothy wanted to be. She was nearly developing a reflexive aversion to the pervasive smell of disinfectant.

Following Everett to the maternity ward, they found Jeffrey, who was visibly anxious and pacing back and forth. "Why are you guys coming here?" Jeffrey wasn't surprised to see Everett, but Dorothy's presence surprised him.

"How could I not cwith Karen in this condition?" Dorothy's gaze shifted towards the closed doors of the operating room, "Did the doctors say anything else? Is she... going to have the baby ahead of the ttoday?" "The doctor toldto prepare myself. If they can't control her bleeding or if there's any issue with the baby's heartbeat, they'll have to perform a cesarean section immediately." Just the thought of Karen alone in the ICU made Jeffrey's heart clench. He couldn't shake the image of her pale, pained face from his mind. He had never seen Karen in such agony before! Everett walked over and clapped him on the shoulder, "It'll be okay. I've already called in the best OB-GYNs in Eldorria City to chere." Jeffrey looked up at Everett and nodded, "Thanks, man." "No need to thank me." Jeffrey let out a sigh, "You know, after seeing Abigail and Langston, I thought how great and joyful it would be to have a child of our own. So I insisted Karen get pregnant, never thinking about the risks. But seeing her like that today, I swear, this will be the only child I'll put her through. As soon as mother and daughter are safe, I'm getting a vasectomy." Standing outside the ICU, the tough man felt tears threatening to spill. He knew childbirth was a critical ordeal for women, but facing it firsthand showed him just howpowerless he was. He could do nothing but let Karen face it all alone! Everett pressed his lips together, saying nothing. His gaze shifted to Dorothy, who was peering anxiously through the door.

He couldn't imagine how this frail woman was once gathering èt evidence and working at the stwith two babies in her belly. Karen, with all the care and attention from Jeffrey, was struggling so much. The thought of Dorothy enduring even half of that, Everett didn't dare to continue that thought.

Dorothy was oblivious to their conversation, her mind entirely on the room behind the door.

Just as she was contemplating whether to knock and ask if she could accompany Karen, she felt a pull on her hand.

Dorothy looked up and met Everett's intense gaze.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

"Nothing, I just really wanted to hold your hand."
