Seeing Everett hadn't moved, she urged again, "Everett?"
"…I'll go make the toast first, make sure you come back soon."
"Sure."
Dorothy waved her hand, watching as Everett took his leave, vanishing from her sight.
At that moment, Jonathan chuckled softly, "My son, he's truly head over heels for you."
"Everett has been very kind to me." Dorothy stood there, proper and a bit uncomfortable.
It wasn't that she was nervous, but meeting and being alone with an elder like this was new to her, hence the awkwardness.
"Everett got his temperament from me, once he sets his mind on something, he won't budge." Jonathan sighed, "Truth be told… I knew early on that Everett's mom wasn't exactly the saint she was made out to be, aware of the unsavory things she did in secret. But because she was the woman I chose as my wife, I always ended up covering for her, letting her have her way as long as she was happy."
"…"
"I believe, if it were you, Everett would do the same! But, you're different, you're kind-hearted."
Jonathan, of course, knew about Dorothy's charitable deeds and donations.
What she did was fundamentally different from other businesspeople.
Because Dorothy didn't need to use charity as a facade, she could simply ask, and Everett would give her anything.
Her acts of charity were genuine.
Dorothy didn't know what to say, so she just looked down at her shoes.
Considering her pregnancy, Everett had picked out flat shoes for her, adorned with delicate embroidery and pearls.
"Dorothy."

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....
