"You're insane! If you're hung up on being someone's first night, why on earth did you come after me?"
Jeffrey could see that Karen was getting ticked off, so he scrambled to explain, “No, no, that’s not what I meant! What right do I have to be hung up on anything like that? I’m just... I’m just jealous that they had you before I did! Karen, sometimes I can’t even bear to picture it.”
Karen remained silent,
“If only I’d met you earlier, like when we were in our teens? Then it would’ve been just you and me.”
Karen snorted. “As if you could give up all your exes with their model figures, curves for days, and those sweet, sultry looks.”
The words 'exes' hit Jeffrey like a sucker punch, second only to the blow Heather had dealt him.
“Can we not talk about this anymore?”
“You’re the one who brought up ex-boyfriends.”
“I'm sorry, okay?” Jeffrey flashed a sheepish grin, trying to lighten the mood. “How about I carry you off to the shower?”
Karen pushed him away. “I can shower on my own, thank you very much. I’m not paralyzed.”
“Still got some fight in you, huh? Then...”
“Get lost!”
...
After two days of stubborn silence, Jonathan was the first to crack.
With the one-month deadline he had given to Dorothy fast approaching and the grandchildren on the cusp of being inducted into the Lopez family, it was crucial to change their surnames to avoid any snickers or side-eye.
He reached out to Everett, but when the call went unanswered, he was left to send a message.
[Send someone to escort Heather over, and let’s keep this between us, alright? Don't tell your mother!]
Jonathan had not actually consulted his wife because he figured it would only lead to more hassle. It was simpler to ask forgiveness than permission, especially since Heather was currently under his control.
If his son ended up offing her, his wife would probably throw a fit, sure, but it would not amount to much.
Everett saw the message and immediately had Kevin arrange for someone to handle it.

I don't agree with not letting him in. That just seems cruel and besides wasn't the whole point of getting pregnant again was for him to experience and travel the journey of pregnancy with her?...
Sometimes Karen can be such a drama queen and immature....
For some reason I am now feeling suspicious about Kevin's new girlfriend....
