Everett's voice darkened instantly as he gripped her wrist.
"Dorothy, don't do something you'll regret.” But how could Dorothy listen at this moment? The concoction of drugs and alcohol blurred her vision, causing her hands to feverishly fumble over him.
Everett felt as if she were dancing on his sanity.
"Dorothy, snap out of it!" "Don't you want me... I'm not feeling well; I'm hot..." Everett's temples throbbed as he tried to pull Dorothy's hands away.
Yet the more he did so, the tighter she clung his little friend." Pain forced a hiss from him, but he gritted his teeth.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe didn't want to take advantage of Dorothy in this state. She was drunk, but he wasn't.
"Dorothy, let go." Everett squeezed these words out through gritted teeth.
"No!" Dorothy giggled. "You're hotter than me..." "I'm warning you, Dorothy!" "It's so hard." Everett could almost hear his sanity shattering.
"Don't regret this when you wake up." "l won't... Mmm..." Suddenly, he was the one in control. He captured her lips as he plundered her body and tangled himself up in her essence.
Everett still felt as if he were dreaming. It was so surreal.
It wasn't until she bit into his shoulder that he felt somewhat grounded in reality.
All the emotions and pain she was feeling made her bite down harder.
"It hurts... Everett, it hurts..." "Bite harder, Dorothy! Harder!" Only then could he feel more real.
He needed to know that this wasn't the same dream he'd been having for the past four years. He needed to know that this was real.
Lane took the earliest flight to Havenbrook City.
He was lucky that there was a flight that day, and he managed to get a ticket.
The bad news was that the flight was delayed, so he didn't take off until the next morning.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe had been calling Dorothy so much that her phone probably ran out of battery.
When the plane landed at Havenbrook City Airport, Austin gave him Emmett and Natalia's phone numbers.
He didn't even wait to disembark before calling Emmett.
"I'm Lane. What happened last night? Where's Ms. Sanchez?" "I don't know. | took Natalia back to the hotel, and when | went back to pick up Ms. Sanchez, she was gone! No one answered her phone, and no one was at the restaurant.” When Emmett went back, even Gabriel and his boss were gone.
"You haven't been able to contact her since? Did she go back to the hotel?" "No, | just knocked on her door, and no one answered." "She might be drunk and didn't hear you! Get the hotel staff to open the door and check.” Emmett hesitated. "Isn't that a bit... inappropriate?" He was a man, after all. What if he saw something he wasn't supposed to see? It would be so awkward for them to work together in the future.
Lane seemed to realize this too.
"Then get Natalia to do it!" "Alright, I'l wake her up. Natalia got drunk too. The alcohol they brought was strong, and she got drunk after a few sips." Emmett had a low tolerance for alcohol, but he usually could handle a few drinks. After drinking their alcohol last night, he felt dizzy, so he knew the two women must have been seeing stars.
Lane became incredibly furious.
"I won't let this go! Verity Holdings Limited clearly doesn't respect me! They dare bully my people?!" He left all his work behind to come here, and he intended to make Verity Holdings Limited pay!
