Night had fallen, and Dorothy had been lost in thought ever since she returned to Bay Residence earlier today.

After Everett tucked Abigail and Langston into bed and returned to their bedroom, he found her sitting on the edge of the bed, staring off into space. She hadn't even noticed him entering the room!

"What's wrong?"

He approached Dorothy, gently placing a hand on her shoulder. "Did my dad say something harsh to you?"

Hearing his voice, Dorothy finally snapped back to reality, lifting her head with a forced smile. "No, he didn't say anything."

"Then what's bothering you?"

She bit her lip, debating whether to share what she learned about Kenneth with Everett.

At this point, telling Everett might only add to his worries, leading to more sleepless nights.

But keeping it to herself...

Kenneth being close to Lane could mean danger.

After a moment of thought, Dorothy decided it was better to face this together rather than keeping secrets.

"Today, Lane called me, and I found out... Kenneth is with Lane right now."

"Kenneth?" Everett was taken aback by this unexpected development.
