Dorothy knew she should remind Everett that Bay Residence was his own home, and her coming along didn't mean she was moving in.
But when she opened her mouth, no sound came out.
Just once, she wanted to indulge herself and savor a moment of tenderness that belonged to another woman.
"Okay, let's go home."
…
Perhaps because he was so tired the day before, for once, Everett didn't wake up at six.
When Dorothy opened her eyes, the man beside her was still asleep.
His hand was lightly draped over her waist, and his body was slightly tilted.
The occasional movement of the curtain allowed sunlight to spill onto his deep-set features, a sight so beautiful that she couldn't take her eyes off.
If only she was the one he cared about…
That would be wonderful.
This thought suddenly sprouted out of nowhere. It startled Dorothy, so she quickly got out of bed.
She didn't know how she could have such thoughts.
Indeed, once people tasted sweetness, they would become greedy.
After washing her face with cold water, Dorothy discarded these thoughts and went to the kitchen to make breakfast for Everett.
In both emotion and reason, she should thank him.
Just as the porridge started to boil, Everett woke up.
Still in his black silk robe, his messy hair made him less intimidating and more approachable.
She relaxed a bit and smiled at him. "Breakfast will be ready soon. How would you like your eggs?"
"Medium." Everett didn't sit down like a boss. Instead, he helped her bring the toast out of the toaster.

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....
How could Jeffrey throw the knife down at the scene of the crime with both their fingerprints on there?...
Again no update, so is this where it ends? Or post the whole book. Your dragging this out...
