He was out of options, so he let Dorothy take a stab at acting.
But in the plan, Everett had no intention of letting Dorothy actually meet Lane!
That guy was pretty much off his rocker these days, capable of anything really.
If he decided to harm Dorothy, well, nothing was off the table.
"I... he didn't do anything to me..." Dorothy, knowing she was in the wrong, lowered her voice.
"What about Kevin? You need to get in a cab and head back to Bay Residence now."
"Oh, Kevin? He's around, but he has no clue what I was up to!" Dorothy quickly took Kevin out of the equation, "I can't head back to Bay Residence just yet, I got a bit of a situation with Karen. I’ll swing by her place and then I’ll head back, okay?"
Everett paused for a few seconds, "Karen needs you for something?"
"Yeah! Girl stuff, nothing to do with Lane. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Jeffrey. I’m almost at his place!" Dorothy hurriedly added a laugh, slightly coquettish, "I’ve already met with Lane, so scolding me now won’t change anything. Don’t get mad at yourself! I’ll explain everything once I get back!"
"..."
"I’m almost there, gotta go."
Dorothy wanted to cut the call before Everett could prod further, so she quickly ended the conversation.
Luckily, Kevin soon pulled up in front of Jeffrey’s mansion.
Just as Dorothy got out of the car, her phone rang.
It was Karen calling.

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....
