Jeffrey peered at Kenneth, taken aback by the proposition.

"You've been chasing after her for years, man. If she was gonna say yes, she would've done it by now. What do you think Karen and I can do about it?" Kenneth protested, "I know she's got a thing for Everett, but it's over between them! They've got a graveyard between them, for crying out loud, and Dorothy..." "Dorothy was Everett's heart and soul. That's the one line I won't cross." Jeffrey cut Kenneth off without hesitation. The last thing Jeffrey wanted was to end up on Everett's bad side, playing a life-and-death game.

"Come on, Everett's given up on her, hasn't he?" Kenneth frowned, blocking Jeffrey's path to the door.

"He thinks she didn't trust him enough, that she couldn't love him unconditionally. He believes the love they can give isn't equal! But see, I don't care about any of that. I can handle it, even if Dorothy never gave a damn about me. I'm willing." "When did Everett give up on Dorothy?" Jeffrey blurted out in protest, "You don't seriously think Dorothy could take on the Lopez family, get lawyers on her side, all on her own, do you? Everett's been behind her every step of the way!" "Then why isn't he showing his face to her? Why do all this from the shadows?" Kenneth locked eyes with Jeffrey, unyielding.
