NovelBookNight had fallen, and Dorothy had been lost in thought ever since she returned to Bay Residence earlier today.
After Everett tucked Abigail and Langston into bed and returned to their bedroom, he found her sitting on the
edge of the bed, staring off into space. She hadn't even noticed him entering the room!
"What's wrong?"
He approached Dorothy, gently placing a hand on her shoulder. "Did my dad say something harsh to you?"
Hearing his voice, Dorothy finally snapped back to reality, lifting her head with a forced smile. "No, he didn't say
anything."
"Then what's bothering you?"
She bit her lip, debating whether to share what she learned about Kenneth with Everett.
At this point, telling Everett might only add to his worries, leading to more sleepless nights.
But keeping it to herself...
Kenneth being close to Lane could mean danger.
After a moment of thought, Dorothy decided it was better to face this together rather than keeping secrets.
"Today, Lane called me, and | found out... Kenneth is with Lane right now."
"Kenneth?" Everett was taken aback by this unexpected development.

"Yeah, he's trying to help me, that's why he infiltrated Lane's circle. But for the life of me, | can't ensure his
safety."

"We can't just ignore Kenneth's safety!"
"I know." Despite the rivalry over Dorothy's affections, Everett was aware of Kenneth's significance to her.
And without Kenneth's past assistance, Dorothy's solo efforts to care for Abigail and Langston wouldn't have
been easy.
By any account, Kenneth was, indirectly, a benefactor.
Most importantly...
"Don't worry, I'll think of something."

She recounted everything, especially the part where Lane made his demands.
Dorothy could clearly see Everett's expression darken!
If not for the antidote, she had no doubt that Everett would tear Lane apart with his bare hands right then and
there.
"Everett, it's cto this, and | want to meet him," Dorothy voiced her thoughts.
As expected, Everett immediately objected.
"| can't let you go alone."
