"You've never really got it, have you?"

Everett's gaze was heavy, his tone flat, "Unless Dorothy herself decides to leave, nobody can take her away."

But if Dorothy really chose to leave on her own, he'd try to persuade her to stay, but he wouldn't force her, wouldn't use any means to make her stay against her will.

Because his love for her was rooted in the hope of her happiness and well-being, not in fulfilling his own desires.

Lane never understood, he had also given a lot for Dorothy! He felt his contributions were less than Everett's, but only because he had less to offer! If he had more, he could do more! But in the end, he was utterly defeated!

"Ignoring her feelings for your own sake, that's not love."

"Ha! Then what is love? Watching her be with another man? Everett, could you do that?"

"I could."
