Seeing that Dorothy remained silent, Kenneth resorted to his final trick.
"Ah, I've got this stomachache, you know! The doctor said I can't go hungry."
With him saying that, Dorothy had to accept his invitation.
Even if she knew these were all excuses, Kenneth just wanted to get out of the house, rather than stewing alone in his room.
"Thank you, Kenneth."
"I should be thanking you for gracing me with your company for dinner, let's go."
...
At night, everything outside was quiet.
Suddenly, a light flickered on in a room that was previously dark!
Abigail, who was still sleeping, was startled, rubbing her bleary eyes. She saw her brother sitting at the table doing something.
She stretched, then shuffled over in her slippers, "Bro, what are you doing?"
Langston glanced at her, smacking his forehead, "Forgot you were still in here! I'm sending some data to my mentor."
He then showed Abigail what was in his hand.
But she didn't understand, all she saw was a mess of data.
"Who's your mentor?"
"My mentor is really something!" Langston lit up his eyes at the mention of his mentor, "He's the best in the hacking world!"
"Wow!" Abigail clapped, full of admiration in her face, "Can I meet him?"
"No, he doesn't meet people." Langston continued to tinker with his stuff.
Abigail was no longer sleepy and pulled up a chair to sit next to him.
It was rare to have her big brother around, so Abigail didn't want to sleep. She clutched at the hem of his shirt, afraid he'd leave.
"Why did you suddenly come, Bro?"
Langston paused and scoffed, "Came to find our deadbeat dad."
"Deadbeat dad?"

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...
