Chapter 1196
Sometimes, I wonder, if I never existed, Dorothy, with her own capabilities and knowledge, might not have ended up in such a dire situation. In fact, she might have had a happy and fulfilling family life by now. A mother still alive, children healthy, and a husband...
A husband who's caring and gentle.
Just like Kenneth.
Looking into Everett's eyes, Dorothy could pretty much guess what he was thinking!
The man was now more afraid of losing what he had than she ever was.
"You should stop dwelling on the past! Everett, we've come this far, why turn back and pick at those bitter memories again? Focus on the happy moments we've shared."
"Have you ever been happy with me?"
Dorothy smirked and bit his lip!
"Ouch." Everett winced, caught off guard by the pain.
She really didn't hold back!From NôvelDrama.Org.
He needed this lesson, or he'd never learn.
"Being with you, I've never been happy, is that what you're saying? I'm just here for the suffering, right?"
Is it that I enjoy being tormented, the more the better?
Everett wiped a drop of blood from his lip with his index finger and chuckled, "Trying to be fierce like Karen, huh? Even copying her moves? Biting, really?"
"Don't like it? I'll bite someone else then."
Just as Dorothy turned her face away, Everett forcefully brought it back.
Before she could speak, his kiss landed.
She quickly tasted the blood on Everett's lips...
"Ugh! Everett!" Dorothy realized this was the hospital's parking lot! With people coming and going, he dared to kiss her right there!
But Everett didn't care about that; he had already kissed her, so might as well enjoy it.
After the kiss, he thought they could
just drive home, but opening his eyes, he saw Dorothy's lips shiny as if coated with honey, her cheeks flushed, breathing erratic, her chest heaving.
He really shouldn't have kissed her!
"You're being indecent! People can see!"
So much for keeping our relationship a secret.
"This is punishment. Who else's lips do you want to bite other than mine?"
If he saw that, Everett would surely lose it.
"It's none of your business! I'll bite whoever I want, it's my freedom."
"Dorothy, I hope you keep this defiance until we get home, still so bold then."
Dorothy immediately shrank back.
A wise man knows when to back down.
Provoking this man never ends well...
Finally, the car started, heading towards Bay Residence.
At a red light, Dorothy spoke calmly "Everett, meeting you in this lifetime is my greatest fortune."

"Don't dwell on the 'what ifs.' If it weren't for you, my mother might have died when I couldn't afford her surgery. At work, I wouldn't have
learned much at the Prospe net
Consortium without a good project. But you got me a position at the Lopez Corporation's headquarters, where I gained access to top-tier knowledge."
What Kevin taught Dorothy definitely surpassed what Mr. Percy did.
She took a breath, smiling, "Remember when Mr. Percy forced me to accompany you for drinks?"
Of course, Everett remembered! He was furious then.
