FreeNovelChapter 1123 Chapter 1123 Kevin let out a sigh that seemed to carry the weight of the world.
"Mr. Lopez, always thinking about Ms. Sanchez first," he mumbled under his breath.
Sometimes, witnessing the love between Mr. Lopez and Ms. Sanchez made Kevin swear off love for good. Falling hard for someone meant your heart was no longer yours to command, and the endless sacrifices that followed seemed like a steep price to pay.
Kevin had convinced himself that staying clear of love was his ticket to survival.
"By the way, is Dorothy wrapping up her project soon?" "Yeah." Kevin nodded, "Everything is pretty much done. If all goes well, Ms. Sanchez won't even need to cto the office anymore. Mr. Lopez, do you need her to..." Everett waved him off, "No, let's not have her cin for now. Best to minimize our encounters for the tbeing." "Got it." Kevin couldn't help but probe a bit further, "And... what if Quincy wants to see you? Should I bring her up?" "No, not her either," Everett replied, knowing all too well how suspicious Quincy could be.

So, Everett decided it was best to keep things as they were, not getting too close, yet making sure she could reach him if needed.
After Everett left, Dorothy didn't reach out to Karen. Her head was pounding, and all she wanted was to rest early and forget about the kiss she shared with Everett today.
But as she lay in bed, tossing and turning, his presence seemed to linger all around her, making it impossible to forget.
It was only after what felt like an eternity that Dorothy finally drifted off to sleep.
The next day, she was woken not by the chirping of birds or the morning sun but by her ringing phone.
It was Karen.
Half expecting it to be another request from Kenneth to meet, Dorothy hesitated before answering.
"Karen." "Dorothy, open up! I'm right outside your door." Without a second thought, Dorothy sprang out of bed, threw on a robe over her pajamas, and there she was, Karen standing at her doorstep. Thankfully, it was just her, nosign of Jeffrey.
"You're here this early, what's up?" Dorothy asked, genuinely surprised. Karen was not the morning type.
"Of course, there's something! I've been up all night just to chere and talk to you." Karen stepped in, looking all worked up as she swapped her shoes.
Dorothy closed the door and followed her, "You stayed up all night over something? What's going on?" "I wanted to talk to you about my suspicions," Karen began, her thoughts having kept her tossing and turning all night.

"Go on," Dorothy said, taking a seat.
"I think Everett breaking up with you wasn't just about his mom passing away. There's something deeper." Mention of Everett tightened Dorothy's chest.
"Why do you think that?" "Maybe it's intuition? I just can't see Everett calling it quits so easily." "He's got Quincy now."
Karen latched onto that point immediately, "Exactly! This Quincy, there's something off about her!" Dorothy suspected Karen might have picked up sintel from Jeffrey, so she waited quietlto lay out her themet friend to lay out her theory
"Think about it... what if Everett has skind of incurable disease? And that's the real reason he broke up with you."
