Chapter 1265
"Really?" Karen's eyes, which had dimmed with despair just moments ago, suddenly sparkled with hope again. "You're not just saying that to make me feel better, are you?" "Why would I? I'm not entirely sure, but Lane told me if I don't agree to be with him, I'd be in grave danger. From that, I guess if I agree to be with him, I'd be safe!" Karen's voice pitched up in excitement, "Yes, yes! That makes total sense! He actually said that?"
"Why would I lie to you?"
"Then you have to, you must get in touch with Everett right away and tell him about this! And then find Lane as soon as you can. Tell him you'll be with him, so he gives you the antidote!" Karen sounded almost as if she wished she could rush off to find Lane and secure the antidote herself!
Dorothy tried to calm her, "We can't just rush into this. We need to think this through carefully, especially you, you're pregnant. Just stay calm and wait for news, okay?" "Okay! I'll be waiting for your update!"
After hanging up, although Karen was still worried, she felt a glimmer of hope.NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
Otherwise, hearing about Quincy's demise felt almost like a death sentence for Dorothy!
Just as Karen attempted to rise from the couch, she felt an uncomfortable sensation in her abdomen...
A vague, indescribable feeling.
She frowned, clutching her stomach, instinctively reaching for her phone to call Jeffrey, but then remembered he was in the midst of a critical moment. She couldn't add to his worries. Fortunately, she had Kenneth.
"Bro, could you take me to the hospital?"
"What's wrong? Where's Jeffrey?"
"Let's not get into that right now. Can you come pick me up? We'll talk on the way."
Kenneth, of course, didn't hesitate. "Okay, wait for me."
Due to mobility issues, the Nelson family had assigned a driver for Kenneth, always ready at his beck and call.
Although his rehabilitation was going well, he still couldn't walk on his own, let alone drive.
Arriving outside Jeffrey's villa, Kenneth called Karen.
She hadn't even changed clothes, stepping out in her loungewear.
"Why are you by yourself? Did Jeffrey just leave you here alone?" Kenneth frowned upon seeing her emerge solo.
Karen waved it off, getting into the car before diving into the recent events.
21?
Now that Quincy was gone, there was no need to play games or hunt for antidotes, so there was no point in keeping Kenneth in the dark anymore.
Of course, she had another motive.
That was to make Kenneth give up hope.
Everett and Dorothy were still together, very much in love.
"So, you mean, what started with
Quincy blackmailing Dorothy for the antidote has now shifted to Lane
using the only antidote to blackmail
her?"
"Something like that," Karen sighed. "Whether Quincy left behind an antidote before his death is just Dorothy's speculation. But it seems like he wanted to use it as leverage to be with Dorothy." FindNovel
Kenneth hadn't realized the situation was so dire, with Dorothy's life hanging in the balance.
Hearing this, his face turned pale.
If anything went wrong with the antidote, Dorothy could be in serious trouble...
After a few seconds of silence, Kenneth suddenly spoke up.
"Karen, I need you to do something for me, but don't tell anyone, not even Jeffrey."
Karen was taken aback. "What is it? Why all the secrecy?"
"Find Lane's location from Jeffrey's phone and tell me."
