"Hey... when did you get here?"
"I saw you hustling out in a hurry." Everett strode over, his long legs closing the distance quickly, and wrapped her in an embrace.
That distinct scent of his enveloped her, offering Dorothy an endless sense of security.
"Why didn't you give me a heads up?"
Dorothy pouted.
"Since when do you announce a surprise check in advance?" Everett raised an eyebrow, his warm smile spreading.
"You're doing surprise checks on me now?"
"Of course! With all these rivals around, who knows if Kenneth Nelson hears about your new venture and comes running to help, trying to sweep you off your feet!"
That got Dorothy laughing.
"So, what you're saying is, unless Kenneth is married, you're going to be on guard against him no matter what?"
"Even marriage wouldn't cut it."
It's not like Kenneth never had a girlfriend. Still ended up the same, right?
Dorothy lifted a finger to poke his side, "Jealous much?"
"Absolutely!"
"Childish!"
"Guilty as charged."
Everett had come to realize that persistence was indeed effective.
After all, why bother with pride in front of his woman?
"I'm done here. How about we pick up Abigail and Langston together?"
"Kevin's on it. They prefer him picking them up anyway. We might as well do something else."
Dorothy was puzzled, "Why's that?"
"Because of your daughter, of course. Kevin's always got candy in his pockets."

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....
