“I said I wanted to see him alone”
She had decided not to lean on Everett for support.
“Alright… I’ll wait outside for you”
Everett stepped back, watched her enter the building, then turned to lean against his car. He pulled out
a cigarette from its pack, placed it between his lips, and lit it.

Everett wished he could be impulsive, play the domineering CEO, and simply lock her by his side. But
that approach would drive Dorothy Insane.
“Mr. Lopez, you really have it tough Kevin couldn’t help but express his sympathy and admiration for his
patience.
If it were Kevin, he would have immediately gone to fetch the kids and then forcefully taken her to
