|| Chapter 1133 Chapter 1133 In my mind, Dorothy's cooking never seemed to pack such a punch.
Perhaps sensing Everett's hesitation as he fumbled with his fork, Dorothy looked up, her gaze meeting his, "Not to your taste?" "No, it's delicious." He offered a small smile, then returned to his meal.
At that moment, Everett wouldn't dare to criticize. Who knew what he'd have to face later? They continued eating in silence until Dorothy suddenly spoke up.

Soon, she cback with two glasses of water, pushing one towards Everett.
"Good thing I didn't make this for Abigail and Langston. Too much salt isn't good for the kids' stomachs." Dorothy's tone was as casual as if she was discussing the weather, a stark contrast to the cold demeanor she had when Everett first walked in.
After he finished his water and set the glass on the table, he assured, "It's okay, I enjoyed it." "Then why break up?" Everett hadn't expected to be blindsided by that question here.
"Everett, you falling for Quincy is hard forto believe. Didn't you once say you were a bit of a neat freak?" Her lips twitched into a smile as she put down her fork, "I'm not wrong, am I?" "No, you remembered correctly." "And being with Quincy suddenly cured you of that?" Dorothy's gaze was piercing, filled with an intensity that was hard to meet.
He frowned slightly, his tongue unconsciously licking his lips, "I'll explain things about Quincy andlater." "Alright, let's change the subject then." She actually let it go! Not exactly the interrogation Everett was bracing himself for.
"Go ahead." "I don't agree with the breakup, is that okay?" Dorothy's eyes were firm, clearly not joking.
But her pleading look left Everett speechless; he almost wished Dorothy would lambast him for being faithless and heartless.

Living here, it's not just Abigail and Langston who are struggling to adjust, I am too She forced a smile, "I want to move back to Bay Residence, okay?" "Okay, that's your house. I'll transfer it to you." "I don't want the house; I just want to live there!" She chuckled, "I'll give you a choice, a or b." Choices.
Everett was dreading choices at the moment!
"First, we completely break up. I guarantee I'll marry someone else within three months marry any man just to cut all ties with you, to let myself move on!" He spoke softly, "I choose the second option."
"We make amends." She locked eyes with Everett, unblinkingly, "You can ΟΙ do what you want, continue seein seeing Quincy if you wish. I won't interfere with your life anymore. I'll find a job, leave the Lopez Corporation."
Dorothy calmly finished speaking, "All I ask is for you to cback to Bay Bay Residence at least three times a week. In front of the kids, we're still mom and dad. No separation, no sleeping in separate rooms Ashburn > X
