Look at Mr. Turner here, beyond saving! You try to console the guy, and he won’t have any of it.”
Wesley’s remark sent the two women beside him into fits of laughter, waving dismissively at Jeffrey, “Come on, if she’s got you all riled up, stepping out for some air isn’t the end of the world! A man’s gotta have a social life, right?”
“No more drinking for me, I’m out.”
Jeffrey felt that even a night out at the bar couldn’t lift his spirits; he might as well head home and cuddle his daughter!
With that, he didn’t even look back as Wesley called after him, striding towards the exit.
Reaching the doorway of the bar, Jeffrey lit up a cigarette and had barely taken a puff when his phone buzzed with a call from Everett.
“Where you at?”
From Everett’s tone, Jeffrey could tell something was off, but he brushed it aside, thinking it was his own issue, not suspecting something might have happened on Everett’s end.
“Just out… chatting with some buddies, what’s up? Plans changed on you?”
“What buddies are you chatting with, a lady?” Everett cut straight to the chase, “Karen tried calling you, and a woman answered! You better think of an explanation, I’m heading to Bay Residence now to pick up Dorothy, see if I can smooth things over.”
“What?!”
…
By the time Everett arrived at Bay Residence, Dorothy was all packed up and waiting for him.
She had intended to go by herself, but Everett, worried about her well-being, insisted on accompanying her.
“That Karen, she’s got quite the arm on her! Pushed me so hard, I was still reeling when she bolted!”
Dorothy had hoped to keep her at Bay Residence, then have Jeffrey come over so they could contain the situation and resolve it more amicably.
But Karen had slipped away!

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....
