“Everett…”

“I owe him some thanks,” Everett said, curling his lips slightly. “Don’t worry, it’s just a thank-you visit.”

How could he dare do anything to Kenneth?

In the restaurant, with Everett and Dorothy stepping out for a moment, it left only Jeffrey and Karen with the two kids again.

Karen pulled out chairs for Abigail and Langston before seating herself between them.

Seeing that, Jeffrey took the seat next to Langston.

“Mr. Turner, you wanna swap seats?” Langston asked with a mischievous arch of his brow.

“No need, I’m good here,” Jeffrey replied, aware that his earlier temper tantrum with her phone might have been too much. So he kept quiet, trying to behave.

Karen, as if she couldn’t see him, was busily digging in her purse for candy to give Abigail.

Suddenly, she noticed Jeffrey pull out his phone and offer it to her, “Use mine for now. My secretary’s out buying a new one.”

“No need.” Karen was frosty, not sparing him an extra glance.
