Ever since he found out about Dorothy's mother's death, he hadn't dug any deeper, believing that Dorothy and Kenneth were the golden couple, living their picture-perfect life. He felt like an outsider, an intruder, and he was sure that butting in would only make Dorothy despise him!
At the time, he truly wanted to move on, to start afresh, and to say a final goodbye to what was.
With that in mind, Everett didn't order any further investigation.
But boy, had he been wrong, spectacularly wrong!
He had taken 99 steps towards Dorothy, only to halt at the very last one!
...
Meanwhile, Dorothy, oblivious to all this, was busy compiling her reports, her mind set on meeting with Kenneth after work to track down the elusive cyber wizard known as Byte 7.
After all, snagging a meeting with this shadowy hacker was a chance she wouldn't miss.
Even if Everett docked her a month's pay, it wouldn't matter; she had to go today.
Four long years!
She had scrimped and saved, begged and pleaded to get in touch with Byte 7, and now, four years later, she was on the brink of unraveling the truth behind her mother's death. She knew she had just one shot at this and there was no room for error. She couldn't afford to give Heather or Everett's parents a moment's respite.
If they caught a whiff of her plan, destroying the evidence or silencing her for good would be all too easy.
She had gone through hell and high water to retrieve that formatted surveillance hard drive!
It was the only lead that might reveal the identity of the killer.
On this matter, she couldn't even trust Everett.
The minutes ticked by until it was finally time to clock out.
Fearing Everett might try to stop her, Dorothy didn't waste a second. She grabbed her purse and left the office.
Kenneth was already waiting downstairs. He rolled down his window and waved frantically at her as she approached.
Clutching the purse that held the hard drive, she quickened her pace.
