At the sight of those bite marks, Dorothy felt a pang of jealousy and envy for the first time in her life.
As someone who had sex before, she knew exactly what they represented! And it must have been quite an intense fling.
Her heart seemed to be ripped open, with the wind rushing in, leaving her momentarily dumbstruck.
As reason came to her mind, she jerked her hand back out of the blue, quickly distancing herself from Everett's bed.
How could she forget that he was a married man! It was perfectly normal to sleep with his wife, wasn't it? Even if he hadn't let go of her, could she cross that boundary? What was she doing now? Intruding into another married husband's house, touching another woman's husband! Dorothy quickly turned to leave, but suddenly heard Everett stir behind her, whispering her name softly.
"Dorothy..." He was calling her.
But Dorothy couldn't stay any longer. She made a hasty exit from the Bay Residence, fleeing like a fugitive.
On the way back to her hotel, she couldn't stop herself from thinking about the bite marks on Everett's shoulder.
She seemed to be choked, almost feeling impossible to breathe.
Her heart was in such pain that she had to gasp for air just to stay alive! But he got rid of the tattoo and had a new lover by his side. Wasn't that what she wanted? She told him to forget her and move on, didn't she? She had no right to feel this pain now! Dorothy didn't even know how she managed to return to the hotel, walking like a zombie.
Kenneth, who had been up all night, heard her footsteps and immediately opened the door, only to find her in this disheveled state.
"Dorothy, what happened to you?" Dorothy lifted her head, whose tear-stained eyes stunned Kenneth.
"Kenneth, he...he's moved on." "What did you see?" Kenneth quickly went over to steady her shaking body.
"He's moved on, and I should be happy for him, right?" Kenneth pressed his lips together, "What exactly did you see?" "I'm just asking you, am I right? Shouldn't I be celebrating his happiness, instead of getting a heartbreak?" Kenneth wasn't a fool and he could guess what had happened, "Did you see him with another woman?" Dorothy lowered her head, "They must be very happy together." "Ah, Dorothy, he's a man and needs accompany.” Kenneth didn't know what to say next.
Because he too was experiencing the same pain, day and night.
At the sight of Dorothy in pain, crying, he felt no different.
"I'm fine. I just need a good night's sleep." Dorothy opened the door to her room.
Kenneth couldn't just let her go, fearing she might do something rash, so he grabbed her arm.
"Dorothy, do you want some drinks? There is a great restaurant in Eldorria City with amazing food! I've been so busy today without eating anything and I'm starving now, will you come with me?" Dorothy wasn't in the mood to eat, she lowered her eyes, "Kenneth, I..." "Please, come with me!" Kenneth gave her a faint smile, "You know, there's nothing a good meal can't solve!"
