Chapter 412

Kenneth couldn’t even bear to think about it–If one day he received news of Dorothy’s death….

He was certain it would drive him mad.

“I know you mean well, but I have no choice but…” Dorothy hadn’t finished her sentence when Kenneth

suddenly stood up and headed for the door.

She paused, then hurried after him, grabbing his arm. “Where do you think you’re going?”

“I’m going to find Everett! I need to know what the hell he’s up to! Your mother’s already dead because

of him. Does he also have to take you down before he’s satisfied?”

“Don’t.” Dorothy blocked his path. “Kenneth, I promise you, I’ll take extra care. We can’t draw attention

to ourselves until the security systems in Byte 7 are back online.”

She was determined to make everyone who had hurt her mother pay, but now wasn’t the time to tip

them off.

“You’re walking straight into the lion’s den! Dorothy, I’m terrified of losing you.”

He couldn’t imagine a life without her or the torturous schemes their enemies would concoct once they

set their sights on Dorothy.

“Tve got it under control. Don’t worry.” Dorothy was ready to move forward.

She should’ve known it wouldn’t be so simple to end things.

It wasn’t as easy as she’d hoped, there were bound to be complications.

Kenneth held back, knowing he had no standing to keep persuading her, In the end, he could only

make a small request. “You can work at the Lopez Corporation, but you have to let me drive you to and

from work every day!”

“You’d stay in Eldoria City for me?” Dorothy was taken aback, frowning. “But you have a job!”

“Nothing else matters. I need to ensure your safety,” Kenneth said, patting her shoulder. “Don’t worry

about me: I can find a good job in Eldorria City. I’ll look for a place close to the Lopez Corporation. It’ll

be convenient for your commute, and If you need me, I can be there in no time.”

Dorothy wasn’t concerned about these.

She couldn’t bear the weight of such a debt.

“Kenneth, you’ve already sacrificed too much for me. I don’t want you to do this!”

“You are a sister to me. It’s only right for a brother to protect his sister. Besides, Langston has always

been under my care, and now that he’s with Everett, I’m worried. I’m begging you, let me stay in

Eldorria City!” Kenneth’s plea left Dorothy no room to refuse.

The dangers were blatant; it was clear he wouldn’t leave.

Kenneth had made up his mind. If Dorothy agreed, he’d stay without question. If she didn’t, he’d stay

secretly.

Dorothy had guessed as much.

“You wouldn’t leave no matter what, would you?”

“No, I can’t leave.”

“Fine.” Dorothy laid out her terms. “You can stay in Eldoria City, and you can drive me to work, but you

have to go on the blind dates your family has set up.”

Kenneth froze, his brows furrowing. “Did my parents tulk to you?”

Dorothy shook her head, her voice soft. “No, but Kenneth, you should have a family of your own. You

can’t spend all your time on me; It’s a huge burden!”

Kenneth just looked into Dorothy’s eyes, his lips barely moving. “Do you really want me to go on these

blind dates?”
