If Everett knew that Dorothy had borne his child, and as a father, he was obligated to take responsibility, to marry Dorothy.
But Dorothy, she would never marry him!
Everett's parents' reaction to this news was something Jeffrey didn't dare to think about.
Before, he thought they were just fond of Heather and wanted her to be their daughter-in-law, as simple as that! But ever since he suspected them of being the force behind the death of Dorothy's mother, Jeffrey didn't see it that way anymore.
Apparently, anyone standing in their way had to be removed!
Dorothy’s child would face a grim fate. Heather would be a terrible stepmother, and Dorothy was not accepted by the Lopez family. This was a dilemma, and it suddenly loomed before Everett.
Choosing Dorothy would mean Everett's mother could fall ill and pass away at any time, and Everett would lose the woman who had raised him all his life.
But to save his mother, he would have to abandon Dorothy.
In this situation, all Jeffrey could do was pray that the child really wasn't Dorothy's, or perhaps the child wasn't Everett’s at all! At least the current balance could be maintained.
…
Heather hailed a taxi.
She first went to the Lopez Corporation, sorted out her files in the office, and clocked in before leaving the company.
She got into another car before dialing a virtual number on her phone.
"Are you sure you won't be found out?"
"I know what I'm doing, don't worry! Don't forget my money." The voice on the other end was also synthetic.

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...
