Chapter 468
She
gave the hospital’s security guard a knowing luck, and like clockwork, two burly m began to advance towards Dorothy.
Hiding a death in this foreign land was all too easy.
Back home, Amanda might have had some reservations, but here, this was her turf.
“What are you planning to do?” Dorothy instinctively backed away.
“It’s all because of you! You’ve turned the Loanz household upside down, my son is seriously injured, and my plans are completely derailed! Tell me, don’t you deserve to pay for this?”
In her entire life, Amanda had never been chastised by her husband, but now, because of Dorothy’s appearance, their marriage was on

How could she swallow this indignity?
Dorothy could see Amanda’s intentions clear as day but right now, she was like a lamb to the slaughter. As the bodyguards closed in on her, she looked around frantically, finding nowhere to run.
Fortunately, just when things seemed direst, Jonathan heard the commotion and stepped out, “Stop!”
His face mirrored the shock Amanda had shown just moments ago when he saw Dorothy
“Who told you about this? He had thought he’d sealed off the news completely!
“It doesn’t matter. I just just wanted to know how he was, just wanted to see him,” Corally stood alone against them, defenseless yet with an unwavering gaze.
She was determined to stand by Everett
“She can’t go in! She only got close to our son for money in the first place. You can’t forget that! How do we know she doesnt have ulterior motives now? Anyone can pretend to be in love. In fact, I bet she hopes for Everett to die so she and her kid can inherit his fortune!”
“Enough” Jonathan was annoyed. He glanced at his wife, “Go inside. I need to talk to her
“There’s nothing to talk about. Why not just…”
“You’re starting to sound just like Heather! All you think about is making people disappear, about harming others. Have you forgotten what the doctor said? Everett finds out you had something to do with Dorothy’s death, prepare to be alone
Amanda glared at Dorothy venomously and then stormed back inside.
The crisis was temporarily averted. Dorothy’s gaze lingered on the hospital, even though she
knew she was unlikely

Jonathan dismissed everyone else, leaving just him and Dorothy face to face

1 know” She had been aware of this truth four years ago. Otherwise, she wouldnt have chosen to divorce Everell then.
“Then why did you still…?”
*Coming back to Eldoria City wasn’t my choice. Later, Heather kidnapped my child, and I had to go!”
Jonathan nodded, he was well aware of that. But the critical point of the conversation wasn’t this. “I can tell you’re not the kind of person who covels wealth, but I hope you understand that a family like the Lopez’s can’t accept you as a daughter in law”
I’m aware of that too”
“Good. Since you understand, Ill be straightforward. The children you bore for Everett, the Lopez family needs to take them back. I cannot allow the bloodline of the Lopez family to be lost.”
“No way! They re my children!” Domthy rejected the idea without hesitation.
Jonathan had anticipated her resistance and allowed a smile. “Don’t rush to a decision. Let me finish. If you agree, III let you stay with Everett until he wakes up.”
