NovelOnlineSeeing Everett frozen in place, Dorothy sauntered up to him, effortlessly snatched his phone from his grasp, and with a few swift swipes, she arched an eyebrow, "Here, Kevin's number." Everett's gaze lifted, his eyes swirling with a tumult of emotions.
With a playful laugh, she urged, "Con, what tis it already? If we don't call now, let's forget bothering Kevin and just drive out ourselves, shall we?" "Dorothy, what's going on with you?" Their eyes locked.

Dorothy tilted her head, pondering for a moment, "Nothing's wrong, really." "Did Quincy say something to you, upset you?" Everett was now worried Quincy had spilled the beans about her poisoning plan to Dorothy! But she hadn't mentioned anything of the sort, leaving him in limbo.
"Yes, her words did upset me," Dorothy admitted openly. "She said she likes you, wants to marry you, and even boasted about it to me! I couldn't stand it, couldn't bear it, so why can't I fight to have you back, huh?" "Why should I, after all these years tangled up with you, not have the chance to wear a wedding dress for you, while she can just swoop in and take you away fromso easily? I can't accept that; she disgusts me, and I have to return the favor." Dorothy's words only furrowed Everett's brows deeper.
"So you're doing this just to get back at Quincy." "Didn't I already tell you the other reasons?" Dorothy took the initiative to grab Everett's hand, placing it in hers to feel the warmth, "Everett, stop overthinking and second-guessing! If I didn't love you, I wouldn't be the type to get jealous or compete. Take Kenneth, for instance... he got a girlfriend, and no matter what his girlfriend said to me, whether it was a taunt or a boast, I wouldn't care!" He moved his lips, but words seemed to get stuck in his throat, as if he had so much to say but couldn't voice a single word.
"So, I do love you. It's because you're in my heart that I want to compete with Quincy." "Dorothy... this isn't like you." The more Everett observed her now, the more he felt he was dreaming.
Or perhaps the poison was acting up again! These were all hallucinations, figments of his imagination.

Or... was too aloof, watching you give somuch without even willing to trust you? Did I disappoint you, make you sad?" "I..." "Everett, it won't happen again." Dorothy rested her hand on his shoulder, pulling him down to meet her eye level, "I swear, it won't happen again! I'll share everything with you, and every tI see you, I'll tell you I love you, that you're the only one for me." Everett was about to speak when she tiptoed and pressed her lips against his.
In that instant, he felt a jolt, rigid and motionless- Just as Dorothy was about to deepen the kiss, Everett suddenly stepped back.
"I...I must be hallucinating. Call Kevin, tell him to taketo the hospital! I o t need to go right now." He turned to leave.
