Now, Quincy had Everett tightly controlled with that antidote. As long as Everett cared about Dorothy's well- being, he was at Quincy's mercy. If anything happened to Quincy, Dorothy would be doomed as well.

Everett walked into the living room, breaking the silence as Dorothy's fingers paused over her keyboard. She turned to look at him, "What's up?" "Got any big plans for your project tomorrow?" "Just need to double-check the order quantities, nothing much." "I was thinking of taking you for a health check-up." Dorothy frowned slightly, "I'm fine, really. No need for that." She wasn't a fan of hospitals.

"Con, it's for your own good." "Who's the doctor? Dr. Quincy?" Everett hesitated for a split second before nodding, "Yeah." "That settles it, then. I'm not going. Everett, even though I don't know the full story between you and Dr. Quincy, I can guess she's using this as leverage over you, right?" It was clear to Dorothy that Everett's interactions with Quincy were different from his dealings with other women. If back in Swevia Country, Quincy had just cured Everett and they had kept in touch out of gratitude, Dorothy wouldn't have found it strange. After all, a life saved is a life indebted.

But back then, Everett barely gave Quincy the tof day, let alone allowed her any close contact! And now, their private communications had intensified upon returning home.

The only explanation Dorothy could think of was herself.

"It's nothing," Everett said, though his answer might as well have been an admission.

"Really?" Dorothy raised an eyebrow, "Then tellthe truth. Why are you in touch with Quincy?" "Work-related stuff." "You mean her father's company investment, right?" Dorothy's lips twisted sarcastically as she pulled up a document on her computer and clicked it open, "If it was just about that, then you've already given her family the money, without expecting any return on investment. It's practically charity! Fine, let's say say the Lopez family and hers are close, and you wanted to help, but now that the money has gone through, you should be settling accounts with them." Why, then, was Everett still in touch with Quincy? "Your illness. Quincy can treat it." "So it is aboutafter all? The money you gave her family was to get her to treat me, wasn't it?" Dorothy's gaze sharpened, not letting him dodge the question.

Everett's expression darkened, "Not entirely." "That's exactly it!" Without knowing the full story, Dorothy could only guess in that direction, "You made a deal with Dr. Quincy. She treats me, and you bail out her family! "Everett, how much did you give her family? Billions? Have you lost your mind?" Dorothy had suspected as much, but having it confirmed was another level of shock, "That money could have paid for any other doctor to treathundreds, thousands of times over! Quincy's taking advantage of the situation!" If Quincy had demanded such a price to save Everett back then, it might have seemed fair.

But Dorothy couldn't accept this when it was about her treatment.

It felt like she hadn't been able to give anything back to Everett and now because of her depression, he was throwing billions into the fire.

She owed Everett too much. Then content is it is gn.Erenbvelxo.com!

"I'm going to talk to Quincy, get that money back. I don't need hero m don't e treatment, Pcan manage on my own!"
