A chance at life? Did Everett not want that? The last thing he wanted was his mother's involvement in the whole mess! If it were just Heather, Dorothy wouldn't need to be so worn out with litigation, draining her energy. Everett could personally dice Heather up and feed her to the dogs! "The surveillance video clearly shows my mom giving the injection order. She can't deny her involvement." "I know! But didn't you hack the video? You must have the source code to delete it!" Jonathan stood up abruptly, walking over to his son.

"Just help your mom this one time, okay? I can talk her around and get her to accept Dorothy into the Lopez family as a daughter-in-law! I can even get your mom to testify in court to prove Heather had premeditated murder!” With that, Heather would be convicted swiftly, her life for a life! Dorothy's aim would be achieved as well! Seeing his son silent, Jonathan thought he was wavering and quickly added, "Everett, think about it. If both I and your mom agree to Dorothy marrying into the family, we'll be one big happy family! We'll put the past behind us and never speak of it again.

Isn't that great? Why push it to the point where everything breaks down?" "I won't destroy the video." Everett took a step back without once glancing at the photos. "I've said it before: whatever Dorothy wants to do to avenge her mother, I won't interfere." "Everett!" Jonathan exclaimed in frustration, "Then just wait to bury your mother! For the sake of Dorothy's deceased mom, you're risking the life of your own mother, who is very much alive. Great, you've got some nerve! Let's see how, after your mom dies in jail, as her son, whom she nearly died bringing into this world, you can just forget all this and elope with Dorothy!" Everett's lips quivered slightly, his gaze dropping. "Of course... I can't." Dorothy could feel that Everett had been in low spirits ever since he came back.

Even though he was going through his work as usual, taking his regular showers, and engaging in normal conversation, the atmosphere was just off.

After tucking the kids into bed, she returned to their room to find Everett sitting in front of the computer, a contract in hand, his eyes not really seeing it.
