Dorothy chewed on that sentence over and over again before finally getting the gist of it.
"So, you weren't drunk?"
The absurdity of it all made Everett laugh at himself. Wasn't he clear enough? Could she really not see what was going on in his heart?
"Yes. I was completely sober when I knocked on your door that night."
"But don't you have someone you like?" Dorothy stammered.
She had seen the interview video Karen had sent her with her own eyes. In the video, Everett admitted that he had feelings for a woman.
"Can't that woman be you?"
Dorothy froze on the spot.
Was Everett confessing his feelings for her?
"From the very beginning, when I received your text message, knocked on your door, and proposed a marriage agreement, I had planned it all."
When he saw Dorothy among a crowd on a business trip, he had already started scheming about how to get close to her.
Then he received her text message and figured she was probably drunk. Despite his hesitation, he decided to seize the opportunity.
Missing his opportunity to be braver when he was young was something he didn't like to mention.
But, on that day, everything aligned. It was as if the universe were giving him a gift. So, when the chance was laid out right in front of him, he had no reason to hesitate anymore.
He decided to start by sweeping her off her feet, then make her his. He thought this was the best way to win her over.
Noticing that Dorothy was in a daze, Everett suddenly grabbed her hand.
"Come with me."
