DreameNovelThe reason felt a bit far-fetched, honestly.
Dorothy couldn't help but question the sincerity behind her best friend's words!
Just moments ago, when she heard that Jeffrey had gotten physical, and even with a pregnant woman at that,
she was naturally upset and didn't think much about the logic of it all. But now, reflecting on it... it just didn't
seem likely...
Jeffrey wasn't the type to raise his hand.
Not unless he was really asking for trouble.
But considering Karen's feelings, Dorothy didn't burst her bubble just yet. Instead, she tried to calm her down
first, knowing well that a pregnant woman's emotions could affect the baby.
Soon after, Everett showed up with Jeffrey in tow.
"Babe, I'm sorry, please don't be mad!" Jeffrey pleaded.
Hearing this, Dorothy's heart skipped a beat. Could it be true? Did Jeffrey actually hit a pregnant woman?
But then, seeing Jeffrey's face cleared all her doubts.
His face was covered in scratches, courtesy of Karen, all red and marked!

"What in the world happened?" Dorothy couldn't believe that their trip to Everglow City had led to such chaos.
This trip seemed like a bad idea now!
Jeffrey, hand on his face, spoke in a woeful tone, "As soon as we got back, she was just furious. Nothing I did
could calm her down. | just wanted her to stop talking, and she took it asbeing impatient! So, | thought,
maybe | should just keep my distance, go check on our daughter, but that just made her angrier!"
Dorothy glanced at Everett, who just shrugged. "And what about Karen saying you were abusive?"
"Abusive?! Me, abusive?!" Jeffrey's voice could've hit an octave higher in disbelief. "As if | have the courage for
that!"
"Karen, what's going on?" Dorothy turned to Karen.
She pouted, "He did hit me. He pusheda bit! How is that not abuse?" Dorothy was at her wit's end.
She waved her hands dismissively and headed to the door. "You two sort it out. I'll go get Felicity, can't leave her
alone in the room. Maybe Abigaiband Langston are still up, they can help soothe her for a bit."
The whole didn't wrap up until after 10 p.m.
Mainly because Karen got tired.
Jeffrey, looking all pitiful, managed to coax her to bed, making Dorothy sorry for him...

"I think dealing with Karen is Jeffrey's real karma."
Everett, nonchalant, scooped her up.
"Let's not worry about them. You, my pregnant lady, need your rest."
Dorothy wrapped her arms around his neck, letting him carry her back to bed. Alone, their emotions ran deep...
She leaned in for a passionate kiss with Everett before getting up to wash up for bed.
But once settled in, Dorothy noticed Everett didn't seem ready to join her.
"Is... is there something else? Work stuff?"
"No, Kevin's got things covered gine
