GoodReadEverett's grip was unwavering, a silent sentinel refusing to release her.
At this moment, this man was unable to hide his desperation and pleading despite his best efforts to conceal them.
Everett knew that if a crack appeared in his tightly wound emotions, there would be no way to reel them back in.
He was clinging to the last shred of his dignity. That was until faint laughter from the children’s room drifted over...
In an instant, as if his strength had been siphoned away, Everett staggered forward, pulling Dorothy into a fierce embrace.
"What about the kids? We've got kids; can't you think about them?" Dorothy struggled a few times, aiming to break free from his hold. But he was relentless, crazed almost, pressing her against him to feel the heartbeat in his chest.

"Everett, | no longer want anything to do with the Lopez family. Let me go, please." Everett didn't budge, but he no longer applied force.
With a gentle push, Dorothy easily set herself free. "Everett..." "Just go." He didn't look up, his body frozen in the previous pose, his voice calm. "Go, leave now." "Alright." Dorothy didn't say goodbye; she just walked straight out of Bay Residence.
In Everett's eyes, her request upon returning from Eldorria City seemed abrupt, but in truth on the flight back, Dorothy had made up her mind.
She had to separate from Everett.
After leaving Bay Residence, Dorothy didn't return to Karen's apartment. Instead, she went straight to Bella's grave site.
Along the way, she picked up a bouquet. Bella was never fond of white; she preferred pink, but she never admitted it.
Perhaps for Bella, the choices of her youth had brought a lifetime of suffering, causing her to detest everything about those years.
Dorothy bought pink roses.
When she arrived at the cemetery, the sky was clear, but soon after her arrival, it began to cloud over. It looked like rain was on its way.
"Mom, I'm here to see you." Dorothy placed the flowers down and slowly knelt before the gravestone.
