"My mom's awake. I'll call you back once I've sorted things out on my end."
Everett's voice came on before she could hear the rest of Heather’s words.
"Alright."
Dorothy stared at the now dark screen of her phone, feeling a mess of confusion and conflict she had never felt before.
Actually, it might have been better if Jeffrey hadn’t come to see her and said those things.
She was already considering divorcing with Everett and ending their relationship.
But after Jeffrey's words, she was suddenly at a loss for how to bring up the subject of divorce with Everett.
He was so careful and protective of her, and despite his mother's strong opposition, he still insisted on holding on.
On the contrary, she would easily voice out the idea of breaking up.
Just like what Everett said, she seemed ready to completely give up and draw the line at the slightest issue.
She lay on the bed and stared at the ceiling with every bit of her interactions with Everett appearing before her eyes.
His gentleness, his consideration, his blatant favoritism towards her.
How come she had never noticed it before?
Dorothy covered her face with the blanket and let out a wail when suddenly the door rang.
It was Karen coming back.
She saw the shoes at the entrance and ran straight to Dorothy's room.
"I thought you weren't coming back!"
She saw her friend’s look after saying it, and quickly sensed something wrong, "What's wrong with you?"
Now even Karen was curious!
She knew all about the guys chasing Dorothy and didn't expect there was one that slipped through the net.
"Don't get mad at what I’m about to tell you."
"Why would I get mad?" Karen was puzzled.
Dorothy hesitated, looking troubled, then finally let out a sigh, "It's Everett Lopez. I lied to you before."
The room went silent, the air seeming to freeze.
Karen became a statue and held her pose for a good minute.
Then, a deafening voice rang out.
"What did you say?! Are you really with Mr. Lopez?”

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....
