The moment the words left his lips, Everett was struck by a realization.
This was far from a simple choice.
When Dorothy posed the question, she was fully convinced he wouldn't opt for the first option.
"Fine, then don’t leave tonight. After you go to work tomorrow, I’ll move back to Bay Residence."
"…"
Seeing Everett's silence, she smiled, raising an eyebrow playfully, "Got plans tonight?"
"No."
Dorothy's demeanor shifted in an instant, from her previously assertive stance to a gentler, softer tone, "Why don’t you go check on the kids? They might have been spooked when I pulled you aside for a chat. Go comfort them! I'll clean up the kitchen and join you shortly."
The swift change left Everett frozen in place, utterly confused by her intentions.
Was all this just for a hypothetical question?
"Dorothy, you—"
She cut in, eyebrow raised, "Changing your mind?"
"…No."
"Everett, don’t overthink it. I'm doing this for the kids, hoping you, as their father, would consider them too! I've already compromised. Whether it's about you and Quincy, don’t push me towards a breakup."
Dorothy spoke with calmness, as if narrating someone else’s story.
"I’m not changing my mind. I just wanted to ask… isn’t there any other reason besides the kids?"
"Of course." She pursed her lips, "There is."
Everett’s gaze followed her intently, hanging on every word.
"I love you, Everett."
Dorothy offered a faint smile.
