After wrapping up the meeting, Everett immediately dialed Dorothy.
His voice couldn't hide the underlying anxiety.
Had Dorothy not objected, he would have ditched the meeting in a heartbeat to be by her side.
"Are you out now?"
"Yeah," Dorothy responded obediently.
"What did Heather tell you?"
Dorothy knew he would ask about this. He must have been thinking about it even during the meeting.
"She told me to take good care of you," she relayed Heather's words to Everett without any alterations.
"..."
"Actually, Heather really wanted to see you, but she was afraid you'd refuse."
"I'm not going," Everett's response was sharp and decisive, just as everyone expected.
After a brief pause, he added, "Don't try to convince me. I'm definitely not going."
Dorothy laughed, "I wouldn't dream of convincing you! Why on earth would I want you to visit my rival in a prison of all places?"
Even though Heather no longer posed a threat, she was still someone who competed for Everett's affection.
However, Heather's reaction today took Dorothy by surprise.
She had always thought Heather's interest in Everett was driven by ambition, liking the idea of stepping on others to reach the top. Marrying Everett was a way to secure that high status for herself.
