NovelEnglishChapter 75
Dorothy clearly hadn’t thought that fat and she was taken aback when she heard it.
“Just call me Kenneth. That’s what everyone at lome calls me
She nodded, feeling a bit awkward, but under those circumstances, what else could she have been
picky about?
If she could find a guy to introduce to her mother, that would have been good enough! She just needed
to appease her until the surgery
was over
After getting into Kenneth’s car, Dorothy realized he was well prepared.
Not only had he bought a basket of fruits, but also several hours of expensive supplements. How much
did they even cost?
She sneakily pulled out her phone and checked her bank balance
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was only few thousand bucks. She wasn’t even sure if it was enough to pay Fim back.
Kenneth followed her gaze and smiled, “Karen said you’ve been busy with work and probably didn’t
have time to prepare anything. So, I picked up some stuff along the way! I can’t meet your mom empty
handed. Your mom would never believe it”
He was so considerate that it made Dorothy feel even more embarrassed, Tim already taking up your
time, and now I’m making you do all this thinking for me. I really appreciate it! How much do I owe you
for all this stuff?
“No need, it wasn’t much, Consider it as me visiting your mom on Karen’s behalf! Otherwise, she would
have to buy something too
“Let’s be clear about this. You must take the money. Darothy knew that her words sounded a bit harsh
and distant, but what she feared the most was awing others.
Whether it was money or favors, she needed to pay them back to the best of her abilities.
“How are we supposed to develop that couple vibe if you’re this uptight? Won’t your mom see through
us in a second?” Kenneth had also noticed her character and tried to reassure her, “How about this?
First get into the mindset, think of me as your boyfriend, and as for these matters, we can talk about
them after we get through today.”
She looked at Kenneth and managed to squeeze out a stiff smile.
She knew his suggestion was right, but the thought of pretending to be in a loving relationship with her
best friend’s brother made her feel uncomfortable from head to toe.
The car soon arrived at the hospital Before they could walk in, Bellas call came in.
We’re downstairs. We’ll be night there.”
After saying that, Dorothy hung up the phone, and turned to Kenneth with a worried look “Mr. Nelson,
you’d better brace yourself. My mom is very angry about this. She might overreacl.”
*Don’t worry, Karen has already reminded me many times”
After saying that, Kenneth placed his large hand gently on her shoulder and curled his lips. “Once we
go in, I’ll start calling you Dorothy. and you call me Kenneth. Don’t forget.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe sudden physical contact made Dorothy feel uncomfortable, as if all the hair on her body were
standing on end.
But she only had one shot at that. If her mom found out he was a stand–in, things could have gotten
even worse! So, she had to play her part well today
She nodded, closed her eyes, and tried to convince herself not to reject his closeness.
As she was thinking, the image of Everett popped into her mind!
It seemed that she could only lower her guard if she imagined Kenneth as Everett.
“Are you ready?”
There was a touch of indulgence and gentleness in his voice that would have made anyone believe he
wasn’t just pulled in at the last
minute.
Dorothy thought that he must have been treating her as his sister Karen, right? That’s why he was able
to get into character so quickly.
“I’m ready. Let’s go.”
There was no escaping this anyway.
