Originally, Quincy wanted to sort out his thoughts before making a decision.
But it was clear that Everett had no intention of compromising.
Why should all the hardship fall on him, while Everett and Dorothy could enjoy their perfect harmony? Didn't Dorothy always preach about fairness? Then, all Quincy wanted was a bit of that fairness.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe had deliberately mentioned his relationship with Everett in front of Dorothy, hoping it would spark a dispute between them, so he wouldn't have to exert himself further.
Though Dorothy's competence at work was undeniable, pushing the project forward always seemed to bring unforeseen troubles. For two consecutive days, she had to work overtuntil nightfall before she could return to Bay Residence.
"I can't keep doing this so late." Had it not been for Abigail's slip of the tongue, Everett wouldn't have known she was coming hjust slightly earlier than him! "It's fine! Look at me, I'm as fit as a fiddle, full of energy every day at work." Dorothy saw his expression darken and quickly went over to hold his hand and coo, "Just a couple more days and it will all be sorted, I promise!" "I can't believe you'd disregard your health for work and not tell me. How can I take your word for it now?" Dorothy raised her hand, as if swearing an oath, "Really, really! You can check the project's progress yourself. Right now, it's because the supplier has run into sissues, so we need to prepare a plan B urgently! If we can't recover in the short term, we need to quickly find a new supplier to fill in." Otherwise, not only would the project be delayed, but it would also consa significant amount of funding! She felt it was a critical moment, with everyone in the project team working overtto calculate costs and find suitable suppliers. Austin hadn't been hfor several nights in a row either; she couldn't be the one to bail.
"I'll assign you an assistant." Everett frowned slightly, then said, "I'll have Kevin help you out." "No!" Dorothy immediately refused, "He's your guy, everyone in the company knows it! If he comes to help me, it will make everyone think I'm just a useless waste, depending on you for everything." S That one sentence cut off any possibility of Everett persuading her further.
If he insisted on sending Kevin, it would negate all of Dorothy's previous efforts.
"I just don't want you to overwork yourself." "Everett, I'm a grown woman! Don't you think I'd know if I was tired?" Dorothy squinted and smiled, "I feel a sense of achievement, just letdo this." With that, Everett was left without a chance to voice his concerns.
"Take care of yourself, that's all I ask." "Don't worry! I'm perfectly fine!" However, Everett's worries were not unfounded.
After four days of continuous overtime, right as Everett was in a meeting about to speak, an urgent knock on the door interrupted him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was Austin, panting heavily, his voice stuttering.
In a second, Everett stood up from his chair. The context is on O novelenglish.net!
"Mr. Lopez, it's Ms. Sanchez..." "What about her?!" "She passed out!" Austin was clearly terrified, "We were just summarizing the team meeting, and Ms. Sanchez was fine one moment, then suddenly she vomited blood onto the table and fainted!" Everett strode rapidly towards the project team.
Kevin instinctively followed, but then paused, turning back to the people in the meeting room who were looking looking at each other inconfusion, "The meeting is paused for now, until Mr. Lopez returns." (Uh~ Collecting fan New Year presents! Gonna do a giveaway on Twitter again, planning to prepare more this time~) X
