Tiffanie couldn’t blame Everett. If she were him, she'd probably want to wipe the entire Dorsey family off the face of the Earth too. Everett had endured years of manipulation under their thumb, even down to his most intimate moments. It was a miracle he hadn’t lost his mind already.
She got it. She really did.
But after just being sold out by Victoria, followed by her berating, a sliver of malice crept into Tiffanie's heart.
"Everett, someone's gotta want me still, right?"
A sarcastic chuckle came from the other end of the phone. "Who would be so blind? Unless they're actually blind, you're just like Victoria, cheap."
Tiffanie's lashes fluttered down, and she glanced up at the brooding sky, the darkness in her swelling. Yet, all she let slip was a soft sentence.
"Everett, I really wonder, what did I do wrong all these years?"
Her voice even carried a hint of a sob.
"Your very existence is a mistake. Thinking that a scum like you could live in peace all this time, while I don't even know where my own child is, makes me loathe every single person in the Dorsey family."
Everett's chest heaved with a mix of madness and pain.
"I really wish your plane crashes."
With that, Everett hung up.
Tiffanie stood outside the airport, the vulnerability on her face vanishing in an instant.
Just then, Mason's message popped up, casually asking if she planned on leaving the country. He'd 'accidentally' come across her flight details.
Accidentally?
The word brought a wry smile to Tiffanie's face. Mason was probably tracking her every move, waiting on her like a puppy eager for its owner's return.
She didn't respond to the text. Mulling over the years of Everett's insults, cold indifference, and intentional hurts, Tiffanie's inner darkness magnified to its peak.
She sent her flight information, followed by an emoji with puppy-dog eyes.
Someone just told me that no one will ever truly like me.
