"Dorothy wasn't at a loss for words, she just didn't know what to say!
"Don't worry, I've got your back! It's do or die!"
Karen's pep talk sounded like they were heading into battle, leaving Dorothy with no choice but to stand there, awkwardly holding ten boxes, forcing a smile.
"Actually... I'm not that desperate to get pregnant again."
It didn't need to be such a formal affair.
"That's not an option! You have to get pregnant! I'm looking forward to our prenatal appointments together." Karen, showcasing her hand to Dorothy, said, "Look at this, I still got the marks from the shots! Even wearing disposable gloves don't prevent it. This brand, Everett, is bound to do the trick!"
"..."
What else could Dorothy say but thank you?
Her bag was stuffed with these ten boxes! Had she not brought a sizable tote bag that day, it would've been impossible to fit everything.
Back in the car, Dorothy kept her hand over her bag, terrified that Kevin might discover something.
She still had some pride left.
As they arrived at the amusement park, thanks to their height, they could spot Everett from afar, buying ice cream for his daughter.
As if by some telepathic connection, Everett looked their way at the same moment.
Their eyes met, and with a thin smile, he walked over to Dorothy.
"Where's Langston?"
Dorothy only noticed him and his daughter.
"He said it was too hot, went back to the car to play on his laptop." Everett casually stood by her side, shielding her from the park's bustling crowd.
Ever since an incident, he had become overly protective in crowded places.
He was always worried someone might harbor ill intentions towards her!
"All excuses because it's hot! I worry about his eyes, always glued to the computer." Dorothy was at her wit's end with her son.
Too strict, and she feared stifling his talents.
He quickly closed the distance with his long strides.
Dorothy, scrambling for a plausible excuse, said, "It's from Karen... she said it works wonders... told me to give it a try!"
Everett didn't dwell on her explanation, his gaze scanning the label before smiling.
"Alright, let's give it a shot tonight."
"..."
His casual remark left Dorothy anxious for the next few hours!
After an intense evening the night before, it seemed tonight would be no less vigorous.
Luckily, a work emergency called Everett away to his study for a few hours, and by the time he returned, it was past nine.
Fresh from the shower, Dorothy lay in bed, a bundle of nerves.
Everett glanced at her, then at the items beside the bed, raising an eyebrow, "Seems like you're looking forward to it."

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....
