"Can you come out? Is that alright?"
"Yeah, just tell him to hold on a sec, I'll give you a call once I'm done here."
"Great! See you in a bit."
After hanging up, Dorothy put her phone down and turned around, only to jump at the sight of Everett, who had somehow appeared right beside her without her noticing!
"You... what are you doing here?!"
"You're meeting Kenneth?"
The moment he spoke, Everett's emotions were hard to hide.
"It's none of your business. If you can stay, stay. If not, better leave."
Dorothy didn't want to engage in conversation. Ever since that kiss in the kitchen, she quickly stepped back to put some distance between herself and this dangerous man.
To avoid any chance of her ex-boyfriend, now clearly a past chapter, making unwelcome advances again.
"Dorothy, you're not going."
"Go see a doctor if you're sick, but don't come here causing a scene! Who I meet is my choice."
Since when did her ex get to dictate her life!
"That Kenneth, he's not up to any good! He doesn't just want to be friends! The moment we hit a rough patch, he breaks up with his girlfriend. What do you think that means?"
It was blatantly obvious!
"So what? We're broken up, that's the point."
Dorothy didn't feel like she needed Everett's approval to make friends.
"..." Once again, she left Everett speechless.
"Oh, right." Seeing him looking deflated, she couldn't help but tease, "Weren't you worried about me hastily finding a step-dad for Abigail and Langston? Kenneth has known them since they were babies, especially Langston. He practically raised him, so it's not like it's a rash decision."
Hearing this, Everett closed the gap, cornering her!

Can you please convey this to the person who owns this website? Update “find me in your labyrinth” novel please...author is MIA since 12/4......
I don't agree with not letting him in. That just seems cruel and besides wasn't the whole point of getting pregnant again was for him to experience and travel the journey of pregnancy with her?...
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....
