Dorothy locked eyes with Everett's smirking gaze and she really got nothing to say.
"What more do you want, huh?"
At this rate, with the daily demands, Dorothy was seriously questioning if she'd make it out of this hospital alive.
"You know exactly what," he teased.
"But you said you just need once today!"
Everett shrugged, "Well, you wanted to learn new things. So if you're upping the game, I need to up the reward."
"Forget it. I'm done learning."
She'd rather face the grim reaper anywhere but in a hospital bed.
Watching her almost physically recoil at the suggestion, Everett couldn't help but smirk, "By the way, I was thinking of bringing Langston and Abigail over."
Though still bedridden, he figured having the kids around might speed his recovery, not to mention it would ease Dorothy's mind about the goings-on back in the home country.
Truth be told, he had nearly drained Dorothy’s power the last couple of days. His appetite wasn't fully satiated, but he had to consider her limits. Now that his desire had somewhat abated, so his thoughts turned to the kids, especially little Abigail.
He still owed that girl a fiver!
"Is that what your dad wants?" Dorothy asked instinctively, assuming Jonathan was becoming impatient.
"Our kids, our decision. He's got nothing to do with it."
"How can you say that? He's their grandfather," she protested. That was a fact that would never change.

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...
