Kevin was the only person Everett trusted to handle this matter.
Just as Kevin was about to hang up, Everett added one more thing.
"Keep an eye on Heather."
"Heather? Jeffrey just said she was with him when the boy’s missing occurred."
"She didn't go doesn't mean she didn't send someone else."
Everett felt that the part Jeffrey mentioned about Heather during the incident was quite strange.
Firstly, since when did she move to that far-off place?
Moreover, in all the years he knew Heather, she never had a history of heart disease. Yet, at such a crucial moment, she suddenly fell ill and was quickly rushed to the hospital, only to find out she was fine.
This was suspicious.
"Alright, Mr. Lopez, I'll start checking her whereabouts now."
"Don't alert her. I'm afraid she'll do something to the kid."
"Okay."
As he hung up, Everett glanced out of the car window.
They were almost at the hospital. His emotions were a whirlpool of anxiety and fear.
He was scared.
Scared that the results wouldn't be what he hoped for.
He hoped that the child was indeed Dorothy and his. That way, even if she had truly moved on, he would still have a child, which was a reason to keep living.
...
Jeffrey was frantic when the child went missing.
He had pulled all his connections to search for the child, almost exhausting all his resources.
Actually, it was not that Jeffrey was particularly afraid of Everett blaming him, but that child was really cute.
