However, Kenneth ddelwice the latter part, but the look on Dorothyâs face condimedia suspicions
Although he didnât know the details, he was certain he wouldnt abandon her in such a trying time, even
if the tried to push him away
âMy mam. She was murdered instead of answering Kemethâs question, Dorothy simply muttered,
âSomeone kilether. Im sure of it
âDo you know who it was? Kenneth quickly asked. âTell me, and I help you find out. If someone maly
did kill your mother, Ewort let them get with itâ
Dorothy slowly after her gaze to meet his eyes
Suddenly, her shoulders dropped
âWhat if it was someone from the Lopez family? Can we ever And out?
She was stated Scared of what they might discover if they di 100 dep. What if it was Everettâs parents
who orchestrated it all?
Even if they could prove it would they stand a chance against the mighty Lopez family? Her motherâs
words achand in her mind, hitlingher with a harsh reality that they were outmatched in every possible
way The Loper family could crush them like a hug without breaking a sweet How could the possibly
fight back?
Was she relying or Everen?
How naive she had been! it was his parents they were up agamat, not some random adversaries. And
now the was stuck between him and his family.

She had no family left in this world. There was no one to help her deal with the abermath of her
mothers death She couldnât even fathom what to do with the hospital procedures and everything else
Doty knew how hard this was going to be.
She was even rational enough to mal drag Kenneth into this mess with her.
âHow can I leave you alone in the hospital at a time like this? Kenneth was even more heanbroken to
see Dorulty trying to put on above face.
He wished that she would let it all out, cry scream, and even lash out in anger.
Just anything but this painful stence and eene ramena.
