[Okay, I got it, Mr. Lopez.] Kevin replied.
Everett could almost sense the relief that washed over Kevin from the other side of the screen.
He tried to twist his lips into a smile, but it just wouldn't come.
Jeffrey had been obsessing over that marriage license, and now he finally had it in his hands.
On the ride back, he kept pulling it out of his pocket, looking at it multiple times, putting it back, then taking it out again, and back in it went.
At that point, Karen couldn't help but think he was acting like a three-year-old. But when he got serious, he was like a crime boss.
She couldn't shake the memory of being in the restroom, having her phone snatched away, and when she looked up at him, those cold, piercing eyes staring back at her! Karen half expected him to smash the phone right then and there.
"You're finally mine!" Jeffrey declared, pulling Karen close and waving the marriage license in front of her.
"Give me mine," she said, reaching out for it.
But Jeffrey tucked the certificate away.
"Nope, it's safer with me." "Jeffrey, you know I can always go to the city hall and get a copy if I want a divorce." As if withholding the certificate could actually stop anything.
"If you want a divorce, you'd still need my consent!" He had worked too hard to bring her back into his life; he wasn't about to let go.
Karen sighed, not wanting to argue with him.
"Now that we're married, you can let me go back home, right? My parents are going to be worried sick if they don't see me for a few days. You can't keep me locked away forever." "Don't worry, I've already messaged them on your WhatsApp. All is good." "Jeffrey! That's a violation of my privacy! Give me my phone back." She couldn't believe he had gone to such lengths, actually using her WhatsApp without permission! "Six months, just six months! I talked to the doctor; after that, you can't have an abortion. Then you can punish me however you want." Jeffrey had only one goal in mind—to protect their unborn child. Everything else could wait.
After all, once the marriage license was signed and the baby was born, her parents would have to accept him, whether they liked itor not.
Karen was at a loss for words.
"Come on, give me a smile!" Jeffrey grasped her hand, suddenly conspiratorial. "Wait till we get to the villa. I've got a surprise for you." Karen frowned. "There's no surprise you could give me that I would want." All she expected from him were shocks.
"Trust me, it's gonna be an amazing surprise!" The car took a turn and, after a long drive, finally stopped in front of the villa.
Karen had never expected any kind of pleasant surprise, but when she saw Paige, she was genuinely taken aback.
