Jeffrey was completely blindsided by the question, it took him a moment to realize that his wife was dead serious.
He cleared his throat, his tone earnest as he began, “Look, babe, I honestly have no clue what Everett has been up to lately, but I promise you! He would never, ever do anything to hurt Dorothy.”
Now, Jeffrey couldn't vouch for everything, but when it came to Everett, there was no room for doubt.
Karen rolled her eyes, “It’s just this period I’m worried about!”
“Come on, think about it. How many years did Dorothy leave Everett? Did he ever look at another woman?”
“…”
“If Everett couldn’t handle a bit of loneliness, how in the world did he wait for Dorothy all those years?” Jeffrey raised his hand, patting Karen on the shoulder, “I know you care about Dorothy, don’t want her getting the short end of the stick! But now, with Dorothy by Everett’s side, him being her knight in shining armor, even if someone wanted to mess with her, they'd have a hard time!”
Hearing this, Karen did feel a bit more at ease.
But the curiosity was still there.
“So, what’s with Everett being all mysterious?”
Jeffrey threw up his hands, swearing honesty, “Honey, you’ve seen how swamped I’ve been! Everett’s been throwing new tasks at me every day, I barely have time to breathe, let alone chat!”
Lately, he felt like he was practically living at the office!
Back when Everett was busy, it’d be a day or two, tops, and Kevin was around so Jeffrey would only be tied up for a half-day or so.
Now, it’s a whole different story…
He was on track to receive the Employee of the Month at Lopez Corporation!

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....
