"It's like you think you can control who these kids will fall in love with in the future!"
Dorothy Sanchez did like Felicity Lopez and knew she must be a wonderful girl, but if her son happened to fall for someone else,
she wouldn't stand in his way!
Otherwise, what would make her any different from Everett Lopez's mother?
"Ah, | just adore Langston's face! He's going to look just like Everett when he grows up!"
Jeffrey Turner raised an eyebrow at her, "So... you have a thing for Everett?"
Karen didn't hesitate for a second, her reply swift, "Of course! Who wouldn't like Mr. Lopez's looks?"
"And what, my face doesn't do it for you anymore? I'm pretty handstoo, you know!"
His face, Jeffrey's face, had always been praised, hadn't it?
"I never said you weren't handsome, but...pared to Mr. Lopez, you're just not quite there." Karen didn't care if he got jealous,
she had to tell it like it was!

After all, it's not like Jeffrey could do anything about it.
"What, you disagree?"
Jeffrey smirked, "How could I? When ites to looks, Everett's the only one I'd admit defeat to!"
Discussing the contract hadn't dampened Dorothy's spirits one bit.
There were so many joys in this world, she didn't want to let bad people or bad situations occupy her thoughts.
Returning to the Lopez Corporation's jointly developed resort, Dorothy felt a wave of nostalgia.
This place...
It wasn't just marked by her presence but Lane's as well.
If he hadn't been so obstinate, so controlled by jealousy, Lane could have had a bright future too.
He was wealthy, fairly good-looking, and had managed thepany well, definitely a talent in his own right.
"The air out here is just wonderful!"
Behind her, Karen stretched her arms wide, almost itching to run across the grass in her excitement.
Jeffrey, holding their daughter, could only remind her from the side, "Don't run, take it easy! Remember, you're pregnant!"
Since he couldn't put their daughter down, reminding her verbally was all Jeffrey could do.
What else could he do with a wife who had the energy of a whirlwind?
"Ah, I'm fine! | know my limits."
Everett, holding Dorothy's hand, glanced occasionally at Abigail and Langston playing around, and spoke softly, "Even now, | often
feel like I'm dreaming."
"Hmm?"
"And then | regret the years we wasted in between."
Dorothy leaned on his arm, resting her head against him.

"How can you call it wasted? It's because of that t| realized how irreplaceable you are! It taughtwhat love is, how to
express my love."
Everett raised an eyebrow, "You've figured it out now?"
Dorothy shook her head, "Notpletely, so Mr. Lopez, you'll have to keep teaching me! It's a long road ahead."
"Alright, I'll teach you forever," he patted her hand, "I'll use all the knowledge | have."
Dorothy looked up at him, her smile bright.
Facing the sunlight, her face was exceptionally clear and delicate, just like the first the noticed her.
Still so, just a glance from her was enough to make his heart race uncontrollably.
"Let's have our wedding back in Eldorria City when we return."
The topic suddenly shifted, Dorothy paused, "Hm? Why bring this up all of a sudden?"
"Dorothy, you've got to givean official status at spoint, can't keephidden away as your husband forever."
