Chapter 565
It simply couldn't be anyone else.
"Why?"
Dorothy gazed into his eyes, which were deep and clear and untainted by any falsehood. She knewhe hadn't lied.
But why?
What about her was worth this?
"There's no why. I don't have an answer as well."
If he did, he wouldn't have been stuck and standing still for years.
Dorothy could feel that Everett wanted to throw the question back at her. But he didn't dare.
He was scared the answer wouldn't be the one he wanted.
The topic was too heavy; Dorothy didn't want to delve any deeper.
She looked down to find her phone and noticed an unread WhatsApp message.
It was from Karen.
Upon opening it, a photo of a guy popped up.
Everett, sitting beside her, caught a glimpse and immediately furrowed his brows, "What's shedoing, sending you pictures of guys?"
Dorothy sighed, showing him the message thread on her phone, "Don't jump to conclusions, okay?She's asking if I think he's handsome. She's planning to go on a blind date with him."novelbin
"She's going on a blind date?"
"Yeah." Dorothy nodded, taking a closer look at the guy in the photo.
He was quite the looker, seemingly around Karen's age. Not drop-dead gorgeous, but definitelyabove average.
He had to be Karen's type, or else she wouldn't have sent it.
Just as Dorothy was about to zoom in on the guy's photo to get a better look at his features, herphone was snatched away!
Lifting her eyes, she met Everett's displeased gaze.
"How long are you going to look at that?"
"You're not getting mad about this, are you?"
"What's there to look at? He's Karen's date, not yours." Everett turned off her phone and set itaside, "You're never going to have a chance to go on a blind date in this lifetime."
Dorothy laughed helplessly and took the initiative to link her arm through Everett's and to give it agentle shake, "I promise you I will never go on a blind date in my life, okay? Stop being jealous, itdoesn't suit the persona of a CEO like you."
"Even a CEO has feelings. Can't I be uncomfortable seeing you gawk at another man's photo?"
"No, no, no, you can! I won't look anymore, I'll delete it." Dorothy promptly deleted the photo withouthesitation, "I just wanted to look out for Karen. Over the years, she's been held back from dating
and marriage since I drag her down. Now that she wants to go on a blind date, I can't just saynothing."
If it weren't for her always asking Karen to look after Abigail, she might have already found a partnerby now!
Dorothy always felt that the lack of progress in Karen's relationships was her fault.
Seeing her delete the photo, Everett let it be.
"So, if things go well for Karen, she might be getting married?"
"Who knows?" Dorothy typed away and spoke to him simultaneously, "You know her personality;she may have a shotgun wedding."
Everett's expression darkened slightly, and after a moment's hesitation, he asked, "Do you thinkthere's a chance between Karen and Jeffrey?"
Dorothy stopped typing and looked up, "You know what kind of person Jeffrey is better than I do,right?"
Everett didn’t have a single word to say.
"Can he really settle down with Karen? I can tell he's interested in her, or he wouldn't keep bringingher up or have followed her back from abroad. But who can tell how long will his interest last?"
