He could, all on his own, driven by sheer willpower and a relentless obsession, love for more than a decade.
Despite the countless times he was hurt, he never truly let go of her. How could Dorothy ever doubt his sincerity?
That would be an utter betrayal of love!
Everett lifted his hand, gently wiping away her tears.
"Stop crying, Dorothy. I'd do anything for you, and I mean it wholeheartedly." He even pushed a pen into her hand, "Sign it, or we'll miss the courthouse closing time."
"I..."
"Come on! This is me proposing. You can't say no."
Dorothy looked down at the pen in her hand.
After a long moment, she spoke in a hoarse voice, "Everett, you've given me so much, I don't know what I can give you in return."
"Can I make a request, then?"
"Sure, go ahead." Dorothy agreed promptly.
"In this life, the next, and for all eternity, never leave me." Everett curved his lips into a slight smile, pulling her back into his embrace, "And... in our next life, agree to date me from middle school, okay? Read that love letter I'll send you sooner to spare me years of worry."
Dorothy laughed through her tears, "Is that all you aspire to?"
"With a career, kids, and you by my side, that's all the ambition I need."
He wasn't someone with grand desires, after all.
"Alright, I promise! Next life, I'll be the one chasing you. Let's see if the school's heartthrob is really that hard to get."
"Not hard at all. Just ask, and I'll say yes."

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....
