“Stop!” Dorothy waved her hands frantically, “It was Dr. Quincy’s skill that saved you. She’s a wizard in the medical world. Without Dr. Quincy, you’d still be living on the line!”
Her thoughts before didn’t meant to target Quincy at all!
It was just admiration, pure and simple.
Deep down, Dorothy harbored a sense of inferiority, viewing herself as nothing more than dirt on the ground. So when Everett fell for her, it was a shock to her system.
“The Lopez family pays her a salary.” Everett wasn’t too hung up on it.
As a physician at the Lopez Private Hospital, it was only natural for Quincy to treat patients; it was part of her job description! At most, they could give her a bonus for a job well done.
Just like with Heather. Amanda kept reminding Heather of her enormous sacrifices for the Lopez family, praising her dedication and single– minded focus. But as far as Everett was concerned, Heather had already been compensated for her work. It was her job, after all.

Everett, however, was not satisfied with her response. His handsome face became a bit somber.
“Not jealous?”
“Right! I’m really not! In fact, I’m grateful to Dr. Quincy for saving you.”

“Dorothy, you mean to tell me that you feel nothing when you see other women around me?”
She blinked, taking a moment to grasp the full meaning of his words..
“Everyone socializes, right? And in social circles, there are men and women. Am I supposed to demand that you, a big shot CEO, cut off all contact with the opposite sex?”
“But when I see men around you, I get jealous.”
Dorothy widened her eyes.
“Whether it’s Kenneth, Lane, or maybe others I don’t know about, I get jealous of them all.”
Now Everett, usually so distinguished and genteel, spoke with the petulance of a child.
“Then go ahead and put me under house arrest. That’ll end my social life completely.”
“I’ve thought about it.”
Dorothy was shocked again.
His eyes were serious and earnest, “I’ve really thought about it.”
But he dared not go through with it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe two exchanged a long look before Everett let out a soft sigh.

He couldn’t let her know the full extent of his feelings all at once. He had to reveal it slowly, like chipping away at an iceberg: otherwise, the look in her eyes a moment ago suggested she was already plotting her escape.
Back in his own room, Jeffrey stripped off his clothes and dove into bed, grumbling to himself.
He was too tired to play the part of some eager lackey groveling for approval. Better to stay away!
As he was about to fall asleep, his phone rang at the most inconvenient time.
Jeffrey, shirtless and irritated, sat up and snatched the phone. It was Lane,
“What’s up?” he barked.
“What’s with the tone?” Lane sounded sloppy as usual, but this time he feigned his nonchalance.
