He said it with such seriousness that Dorothy had to stifle her laughter, feeling a bit embarrassed even to smile.
"You're my number one, I promise!"
After she said it, her gaze fell on the items Everett had prepared for her by the bedside, and she couldn't help but feel a touch moved.
"I can now understand the joy Karen feels. Being pampered during pregnancy is like this."
It was like living the life of Riley!
"Not just during pregnancy. I'll take care of you like this all the time."
"But what about your work?"
"Didn't I tell you? Whether I'm there or not, the Lopez Corporation will just have one more or one less project. I don't care about the money." Dorothy was about to respond when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Everett immediately got up to open it, only to see Karen, tears streaming down her face and blood dripping from her hands, standing at the door. "Dorothy! Jeffrey... he's been abusive!"
Hearing this, Dorothy immediately got out of bed and walked over.
Seeing Karen in such a state and the blood on her hands truly startled her.
She gave Everett a look, signaling him to check on Jeffrey, especially since Felicity Miller, that little rascal, was also out there.
She could handle comforting Karen on her own.
These two, always at each other's throats, never seemed to have a moment's peace.
"What happened? Where's the wound?"
Dorothy quickly took her hand, examining it from all angles to find the source of the bleeding. Karen was too busy crying to speak.
Left with no choice, Dorothy went to get a towel to gently wipe the blood off Karen's hands.
"Dorothy, I've been abused!"
"Then stop crying for a moment and tell me what happened." Karen's incessant sobbing was making Dorothy a bit frazzled. Especially since Karen was pregnant!
All this crying couldn't be good for the baby.
"I... I got upset because he ran into his ex-girlfriend. I said a few
he got annoyed, asking
ever stop nagging!" Conte Poet
"And then?"

"Then he tried to leave, and I wouldn't let him. That's when he hit me!"
Hearing this, Dorothy's brows furrowed in concern.
"No matter what, he shouldn't have hit you. We should talk things out, not resort to violence!"
She was genuinely outraged!
Even if Karen was being unreasonable, no matter how much she nagged him, he shouldn't have raised his hand to a pregnant woman!
"Dorothy... I can't live like this anymore! I want a divorce, a divorce!"
"If Jeffrey really hit you, then you
definitely should leave him. Domestic violence is absolutely unacceptable." Dorothy said sternly, continuing to search for Karen's wound.
Suddenly, Karen pulled her hand back and wiped her tears.
"Stop looking, there's no wound. The blood isn't mine!"
"Then whose is it?"
A hint of guilt flashed across Karen's face. "Jeffrey's."
Dorothy choked, speechless for a moment.
"Who knew his skin was so delicate? I just scratched him with my nail, and he bled!"
Dorothy sighed deeply, clearing her throat.
"Karen... are you sure Jeffrey was abusive towards you, that he hit you?"
"I'm sure! He definitely hit me!"
"Then why is the wound on him?"
Caught without an excuse, Karen
simply flopped down on the site
couch. Because I can take a hit better, I guess. He's all soft and delicate, not tough like me!"
