"Why on earth would Everett keep secrets? I just can't wrap my head around it. Why would he rather break up with Dorothy than spill the beans?" Karen had pondered this but couldn't find a reasonable explanation. "Bro, do you have any clue?"

Jeffrey glanced at his sister. "Karen, do you wish for me to be with Dorothy, or do you see her more with Everett?"

That question put Karen in a tight spot.

A few years back, she would've loved nothing more than to see Dorothy become her sister-in-law, officially joining the family! She knew her brother well; he'd never mistreat Dorothy.

But ever since she got a hint of Everett's true feelings for Dorothy, and the lengths he'd gone to show his affection, plus Karen being with Jeffrey herself, she started to understand matters of the heart a bit more. She began to feel Everett might be a better match for Dorothy.

With Dorothy's stubborn streak, few could put up with her indefinitely.

She figured Kenneth was just fixated because he hadn't had a chance with Dorothy. Once they got together, Dorothy's temperament and future in-laws were bound to clash. Over time, that initial charm might fade.

"Bro, don't you think Dorothy would be happier with Everett?"

For Dorothy, as well as for Abigail and Langston.

Kenneth chuckled, "And what about me? In this happy ending, I'm just left out?"

"That's why I said 'happier', not 'happy for everyone'."

Karen frowned at Kenneth, "Why are you bringing this up all of a sudden? Do you know something?"

"Not a thing. I'm just as curious as you are."

Kenneth decided to keep his suspicions to himself.

Had Karen wished for Dorothy to be with him, he might have confessed. But since...

That wasn't the answer he hoped for.

So, he kept quiet.
