Others she might not know well, but Everett, she knew like the back of her hand.

If it cdown to trading his life for hers right now, he wouldn't hesitate for a second.

Everett squeezed her hand, his voice deep with a hint of sorrow, "Without me, none of this would have happened to you. I owe you." "You don't oweanything. Without you, I would have lost so much more." Dorothy had cto terms with it all.

She figured that as long as there was light at the end of the tunnel, what did it matter how bitter the journey was? If you could endure it, wouldn't the sweetness that followed be all the more rewarding? Soon, Jeffrey emerged, carrying Karen in his arms.

Dorothy was taken aback, "What happened? Why is she being carried?" "She said her legs gave out, scared stiff," Jeffrey explained, a touch of embarrassment in his voice.

Everett drove them home, and it was almost tfor him to meet with Quincy.

"Karen's a bit shaken up. I'll stay here with her. You go on and do what you need to. We can touch base after you're done." "Alright." Watching Everett drive off, Karen finally asked, "Where's he off to? Meeting Quincy?" "Yeah." "And you're okay with these meetings?" Dorothy smiled, "My hero's out there figuring out how to save me.

Hearing this, Quincy quickly agreed, "Then Mr. Lopez it is! Whatever you say." He didn't continue, seemingly contemplating how to broach the subject.

Seeing Everett hesitate, Quincy took the initiative, "Mr. Lopez, if there's something on your mind, just ask. It's okay." She felt they were practically engaged now, and after being intimate, what was there to be hesitant about?

"Alright, I'll just ask," Everett said, rarely looking her directly in the eye, "What was the meaning behind that E medication you suddenly gave me?" "...I told you, it's for bolstering a man's health, good for someone trying to conceive." "Honestly, considering my sudden fainting spell before, I... suspect you might have poisoned me." Quincy was shocked, her complexion changing slightly.

But she was somewhat prepared; given Everett's intelligence, it wasn't surprising he'd figured it out. "Mr. Lopez, |-"

"The truth is, I don't want to suspect you. I was ready to start a family with you, which would affect our of relationship. But if you did poisonmight need to reevaluate our relationship." Everett cut her off, laying out his thoughts first.

This forced Quincy to swallow the excuses she had prepared, initially planning to confess and, at worst, continue to use the situation to manipulate Everett. X
