Feeling more speechless than angry, Dorothy navigated the emotionally charged situation with a calm that surprised even herself.
"Range Rover? Really?" Everett raised an eyebrow, repeating the brand with a hint of disbelief.
Dorothy managed a tight smile, nodding. "Yes, a Range Rover Sport, over a hundred grand."
Everett couldn't hide his bafflement. "You've got to be kidding me."
"Doesn't it just sound ridiculous?" Dorothy felt a surge of relief with Everett by her side, mainly because she feared the woman might lash out in her agitated state. Taking a deep breath, she turned to address the couple, "Ma'am, I can assure you, your husband's Range Rover doesn't impress me in the least."
The wife, ready to retort, was cut off by Dorothy who took the opportunity to link arms with Everett, offering a smile. "Seeing your condition, it's clear you're nearly due. I won't stoop to arguing with you. Woman to woman, I'd rather not make your day harder, but please, show some respect to others."
The woman was speechless.
Dorothy then gestured to Everett.
He raised an eyebrow, "Yes?"
"Honey, show her your car key, so she knows I’m not easily dazzled by a simple Range Rover Sport."
With a slight smirk, Everett slowly produced a Mercedes-Maybach key fob.
Dorothy flaunted it with a smirk, "Can we go now? My husband and I have an ultrasound appointment to catch."
The husband, mortified, kept apologizing, "I'm so sorry for the trouble. Really, I am!"
Dorothy merely nodded, then pulled Everett away.
It wasn’t until they reached the ultrasound clinic that they dared to look at each other and burst into laughter.

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?...

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....
