Lane was dumbstruck the moment he said this.
Others might not know, but Lane sure did. He'd seen Dorothy's daughter, and she indeed looked a lot like Everett.
In that instant, he could even confirm it.
Dorothy's daughter was Everett's.
Luckily, Jeffrey didn't notice Lane's reaction, and he just nodded to himself, letting out a long sigh of relief. "But thank goodness they've been separated for over four years and that her kid's only two. It can't be Everett's."
Jeffery still felt like something was wrong with this whole scenario.
"Hey, do you have a picture of Dorothy's daughter?" After he asked, he noticed that Lane seemed a bit distracted, so he waved his hand in front of him. "What are you thinking about?"
Lane gave him an awkward smile. "Ah, nothing, just some work stuff! What were you saying?"
"Do you have a picture of Dorothy's daughter? I want to see her."
Lane's handsome face paused for a moment, then he shook his head stiffly. "No, her Twitter and Instagram are all work stuff."
"Oh, never mind then. I'm not that curious about what her daughter looks like, as long as she's not Everett's. Let's get back to our drinks, turn the page on this one, and pretend you never knew." Jeffrey flagged down a waiter to change their glasses. He could now finally eat and drink with a weight lifted off his shoulders.
Lane, after a long silence, managed to conjure a smile again. "Yes, let's turn the page! Are you... planning on telling Mr. Lopez about this when you get back to Eldorria City?"
"What? That I ran into Dorothy? He already knows."
