Night had fallen, and Dorothy had been lost in thought ever since she returned to Bay Residence earlier today.
After Everett tucked Abigail and Langston into bed and returned to their bedroom, he found her sitting on the edge of the bed, staring off into space.
She hadn’t even noticed him entering the room!
“What’s wrong?”
He approached Dorothy, gently placing a hand on her shoulder. “Did my dad say something harsh to you?”
Hearing his voice, Dorothy finally snapped back to reality, lifting her head with a forced smile. “No, he didn’t say anything.”
“Then what’s bothering you?”
She bit her lip, debating whether to share what she learned about Kenneth with Everett.
At this point, telling Everett might only add to his worries, leading to more sleepless nights.
But keeping it to herself…
Kenneth being close to Lane could mean danger.
After a moment of thought, Dorothy decided it was better to face this together rather than keeping secrets.
“Today, Lane called me, and I found out… Kenneth is with Lane right now.”
“Kenneth?” Everett was taken aback by this unexpected development.
Why did Kenneth have to appear out of nowhere…
“Yeah, he’s trying to help me, that’s why he infiltrated Lane’s circle. But for the life of me, I can’t ensure his safety.”
“…”
Everett’s brows furrowed, irritation clear in his eyes.
At this stage, all he wanted was for his plans to proceed smoothly without any hitches.
Yet here was Kenneth, throwing a wrench into the works!
“I can’t let you go alone.”
“It’s fine! Lane has... other intentions with me. He won’t harm me! And I was hoping to maybe see Kenneth and get him out of this mess!”
Dorothy truly didn’t want to owe Kenneth anything anymore.
If something happened to him because of the antidote...
She couldn’t bear to think further.
“I’ll discuss this with Jeffrey. You stay out of it.”
“Everett! Sooner or later, I have to face Lane!”
“…”
Dorothy placed her hand on his, gently caressing Everett’s now thinner face, “I want all of this to be over soon. You’ve sacrificed so much for this whole situation. Let me take this last step on my own.”

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....
