Chapter 636


    Knowing that Jeffrey was adies'' man was one thing, but meeting a whole parade of his exes was


    quite another.


    All Karen could manage to show was a weary smile, admitting she wasn''t quite used to the idea yet.


    "Look, I''ll make an official announcement about our rtionship on Twitter!" Jeffrey offered with a


    hint of desperation. "Then everyone would know I''m off the market."


    "No need, Jeffrey. I''m just tired. Drive me home, will you? I need to crash for a bit."


    Jeffrey was on the verge of tears. "Don''t go home. Crash at my ce, please? I swear I won''t bug


    you. I promise!"


    He feared that if Karen went home and took some time to think, she might send him a breakup text.


    All his efforts would go down the drain!


    Karen looked at him with a smile tinged with resignation, "What are you afraid of? If I wanted to end


    things, I would''ve said so already."


    Jeffrey’s unspoken words hung in the air.


    "I''ve got ex-boyfriends just like you have ex-girlfriends. It''s no big deal! Maybe it''s just my cousin''s


    scolding still ringing in my ears. Upon this, naturally I would feel a bit upset when I came across that


    girl in the shopping mall."


    Jeffrey didn''t buy it. Women could be as fickle as the weather. He knew it.


    "Anyway, what''s the difference between resting at your parents'' ce and at mine? If you go home


    like this, your parents will probably think I did something awful to you! Don''t go back, okay? Come to


    my ce. When you''re up, I''ll take you out for something good to eat, whatever you want!"


    Karen couldn''t help butugh at his anxious plea.


    "Fine, but your parents aren''t home, are they?"


    "Don’t worry! If you want them home, they''ll be there. If not, they won''t!"


    Karen was speechless.


    Handing her a cold drink, Jeffrey''s voice dropped to a whisper, "I promise, apart from having too


    many exes, I won''t give you any other reason to be upset. If we bump into any girl I know on the


    street again, I''ll run the other way so fast that they won''t get a chance to say hi to me!"


    "You don''t have to do that."


    It was just another girl Jeffrey had been with, after all. She had known about his history from the


    start.


    "I can''t handle it," Jeffrey was close to sobbing. "Karen, I thought about it. If I met one of your exes


    and found out you were once with him, I''d probably lose it."

    Much like how he felt while seeing Levi hanging out with her!


    Jeffrey wished he could travel back in time to Karen''s first love and tie her down to amitment


    with him and him alone.


    "Oh, I doubt you''ll run into any. I haven''t had many boyfriends."


    She took her rtionships seriously. Agreeing to date Jeffrey was a leap for her.


    "Good. And if by any chance we do run into one, just don''t tell me."


    What he didn''t know wouldn''t hurt him.


    "Okay."


    ...


    The next morning, Dorothy was out early.


    Everett had left the car keys at the front hall. She drove to the cemetery, a ce still lush and


    tranquil.


    With a bouquet of flower in hand, Dorothy walked past rows of tombstones toward her mother''s.


    She noticed a fresh bunch of flowers at Be''s headstone from a distance.


    Someone hade earlier?


    Her first thought was Everett. Had hee without telling her, despite her asking him to leave her


    mother in peace?


    Furrowing her brows, Dorothy quickened her pace, reaching out to remove the uninvited bouquet,


    only to hear a man''s voice behind her.


    "Dorothy?"
