Dorothy was spacing out for a second so she accidentally pressed a bit too hard.
People applied medicine to heal wounds, but when she did it, she somehow made Everett's almost-healed wound bleed again!
"You, you're bleeding! I'll go get the doctor!"
Dorothy was about to dash off, but Everett grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms.
"I'm fine." He said.
"You're not fine! Your wound has re-opened! I'm so sorry...I didn't mean it!" She was like a kid who's done something wrong, spinning around like a headless chicken.
Everett gave a helpless smile; he just couldn't handle her sometimes.
"It's just a small wound, no biggie."
"But I..."
"You didn’t have dinner, right? I'll ask room service to send something up." He interrupted her gently, then followed with a slightly awkward cough, "Go take a shower first."
Dorothy suddenly realized that given their positions, any movement could easily cause a stir; of all places, she was pressed up against his lower body.
He couldn't hide his bulge much longer...
"Okay! I'll...I'll go take a shower!"
She couldn’t think about anything else so she even forgot to grab a change of clothes. And she bolted into the bathroom just like that!
Watching Dorothy's retreating figure, Everett's lips curved into a small smirk.
She really was something else.
...
Dorothy, in opposition to Everett, wished she could shrink and escape through the drain in the bathroom!
That didn’t go as she planned. Now she was taking a shower after him. Why?
Shouldn't they be sitting down to discuss the dissolution of their contract and when they'd head to get their divorce certificate?
Everett and Heather had already reached the point of buying each other underwear on this business trip. She wouldn’t buy it if he later told her they weren't back together.
Dorothy paced around the bathroom a few times before Everett's voice came from outside.

Sometimes Karen can be such a drama queen and immature....
For some reason I am now feeling suspicious about Kevin's new girlfriend....
I really hope this Perdita person is not a new villain....
I too echoed the sentiments of pppplllleeeaaaassssseeeeee bring this drama to an end. I beg of you!...
Really please finish this book and upload the full story so it can end. It's been drugout for so long!...
The intimate scenes in this story or uncomfortable to read. They either come off as being forced, painful, or simply not enjoyable....
Okay I left a long while ago and came back. Looks like it's been updated but still not done lol. I'll maybe wait 6 months before coming back and it'll probably still be going on. It's like a soap opera instead of a novel...
Kenneth is confirming something I've been thinking about him for several hundred chapters ago and that is he is a future murder suicide perpetrator. And after reading chapter 1275 yeah it's just brought the thought back....
How could Jeffrey throw the knife down at the scene of the crime with both their fingerprints on there?...
Again no update, so is this where it ends? Or post the whole book. Your dragging this out...
