As he turned to make a phone call outside the hospital room, Dorothy furrowed her brows. “Mom, this is too much! His parents

“He’s the one who said his parents wanted to meet me. What’s wrong with me agreeing?”
Bella had thought of a thousand ways to verify whether her daughter was really maired or just playing house with some rich guy!
Dorothy was stuck between a rock and a hard place. She glanced at the door, T’m going to see how he’s talking to his parents. If
its not convenient, can you stop giving him a hard time? Maybe let them come another day when they’re prepared.”
“No.” Bella refused firmly. “If you guys are conspiring to trick me, should I give you time to find an actor?”
Around the comer outside the hospital room, Dorothy found Kenneth by following his voice,

Especially as a teacher, he had met so many parents over the years and knew their concerns.
Dorothy moved her lips, but in the end, she didn’t any anything
It was hard for her to explain her twisted family dynamics, let alone describe her mother’s extreme control issues.

Dorothy brought a chair over for him and sat next to her mother’s bed.
She absentmindedly checked her phone and was startled to see two messages from Everett!
[Remember, don’t come back to Bay Residence before 10 p.m.)
That was sent shortly after she finished work.
The most recent one was sent just five minutes prior.
[Who are you with?|
Dorothy hesitated for a moment before replying with a few nonchalant words.
[At the hospital with my mom.]

Everett quickly replied.
