    Chapter 428


    Despite her reservations, Dorothy couldn’t bring herself to bite again after tasting blood. She was left


    struggling, not having the heart to bite again.


    It wasn’t until Keh strode over from across the way and punched Everett’s shoulder that the two


    were finally separated!


    Everett staggered back a few steps, while Keh, his face flushed with rage, was ready to punch him


    again,pletely devoid of


    reason!

    Seeing this, Dorothy quickly intervened.


    “Keh, stop! Dont hit him!”


    Keh managed to halt his fist in time, looking up at Dorothy.


    Her lips were flushed red after the kiss, with faint traces of blood still visible, evidence of Everett’s


    intense passion!


    It was clear that this had been a show for Keh.


    “Dorothy, he’s bullying you!”


    “No, that’s not it! Keh, please go back to the car, I’lle to you in a bit!”


    Dorothy certainly didn’t want the two men toe to blows! After all, Keh was no match for


    Everett. Whether it strength or social standing.


    “Dorothy!”


    Keh, frustrated, nced towards Everett who was not too far away.


    I was physical


    Everett, his long fingers wiping the blood from his lips, locked eyes with him, his gaze def ant and


    thumphant, like a victor assured of his win!


    “Keh, let me handle this, okay? We’ve got our appointment with Byte 7 today. We can’t miss out on


    important stuff! We’ll talk about thister!”


    Dorothy dreaded the thought of their meeting being dyed because of this confrontation, and she


    feared that Everett might harm Keh


    After all, this was in front of the Lopez Building in Eldoria City, Everett’s domain.


    Keh was grinding his teeth in anger, but ultimately, he could do nothing but tum around and storm


    back to his car.


    However, he didn’t leave; the car remained parked there.


    Once she confirmed Keh was gone, Dorothy turned back to Everett, frowning in disapproval.


    “What are you trying to do? This is harassment!”


    “Why don’t you call the cops then, have me arrested.” Everett’s lips, broken by Dorothy’s bite,


    continued to bleed, and with a cocky tilt of his mouth matched with a neatly tailored suit, he looked


    every part of the unhinged CEO.


    Dorothy was speechless; even now, he was still smiling!


    “You really think I won’t?”


    “Yeah, you won’t.” Everett’s tone was certain, his eyes never leaving her face.


    Faced with Everett’s shamelessness, Dorothy felt both unfamiliar and helpless. In the end, she could


    only resort to herst–ditch threats, which had worked earlier in the day to free herself. “Mr. Lopez,


    don’t tell me you think this will make me worry about you. I urged Keh to leave because I was


    afraid you’d hurt him, not because…..”


    “If you didn’t care, why didn’t you let Keh continue?” Everett cut her off and started closing the


    distance with long strides,ering her. “Dorothy, you couldn’t even bring yourself to bite me a second


    time!”


    Her deepest feelings were exposed, and her face stiffened


    “Dorothy.” Everett closed the gap quickly, backing Dorothy into a lighter, forcing her to look at him.


    “Tell me what really happened back then. I want to know the truth.”


    Dorothy didn’t want to look at him, because in front of Everell, it seemed all her emotions were


    impossible to hide!


    But Everett lifted his hand, holding her chin firmly, refusing to let her look away.


    “Dorothy, tell me, whatever it is, we’ll face it together.”


    He had said those words before.
