When Everett emerged from his room again, he'd changed into a casual white outfit. The change took years off him, and he now looked like a college kid, ready to hit the court with his basketball.
Dorothy was still trying to figure out how to ditch him. To be seen in public with Everett was too conspicuous. What if they were snapped by paparazzi?
"Let's go."
"Mr. Lopez, do you think there might be media around or people from our company? Don't you think...it might not look so good if they see us?" She hinted delicately.
However, Everett didn't seem to care. "What's the big deal?"
Dorothy fell silent.
Well, if he said so, all Dorothy could do was go with it.
The supermarket wasn't crowded and had good security. Everyone was busy shopping, and hardly anyone was rubbernecking.
Even so, Dorothy deliberately kept some distance from Everett and headed straight to the pork chop section, urging the butcher to hurry up with the weighing.
Finally, with the pork chops in hand, she turned around, ready to tell Everett they could leave, only to find a new face by his side.
Heather.
This was the second time she'd seen her.
Even off work, Heather was dressed in a Chanel cardigan over a couture dress, looking graceful and charming as she chatted with Everett.
The two of them did look like quite a pair.
Dorothy glanced at herself. She was holding a bag of pork chops and dressed in a white tee and jeans, feeling utterly shabby in comparison.

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...
