Dorothy sprang up from the edge of her bed.

"Stop fussing over me, I'm fine! Whatever happens betweenand Everett, I won't let you get dragged into this mess. Go abroad for your surgery!" "You really think that out of the blue, a doctor contacted me, claiming they could fix my leg overseas?" "...What do you mean?" How could Dorothy not understand? Kenneth sighed heavily, "Never mind, forget I said anything." When he found out the doctor was recommended by Jeffrey, he started to doubt it.

But just then, he reconsidered, not wanting to share his suspicions with Dorothy! If she understood, she would surely guess that Everett was behind it all.

This meant Everett still cared for Dorothy, enough to send him away.

Kenneth... didn't want to be the catalyst for their relationship.

Let him be selfish then.

For three consecutive days, there was no word from Everett.

Quincy was getting more anxious by the minute.

With no other choice, she decided to confront him at his office directly.

"Hi, I'd like to see Mr. Lopez." "Do you have an appointment?" The receptionist, taken aback by the request to see the CEO, gave her a curious look. "...No." The receptionist smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, but you need an appointment to see Mr. Lopez." After all, it's not every day that just anyone could meet with the CEO of a company.

Just as Quincy was about to pull out her contacts, ready to use her influence to get to Everett at any cost, she spotted Kevin walking through the lobby while on a phone call.

What luck! She hurried over to him, "Kevin! Wait up." Hearing her, Kevin glanced at Quincy and continued his conversation. After a few more words, he hung up.

"Quincy, what's up?" "I need to see Mr. Lopez." Asking Kevin seemed easier than dealing with the receptionist.

At least Kevin could directly communicate with Everett.

Kevin frowned, "Mr. Lopez is really busy; he probably won't have tfor you." "It's really important! It's about Dorothy's antidote." "Antidote?" Kevin looked puzzled but saw the seriousness on her face.

After a moment of hesitation, he nodded, Alright, stay here. Mr.

Lopez is currently in a meetingmight take a while before I can it inform him. If you can't wait, you're free to leave, and Mr. Lopez will get in touch." "I've got nothing else, I'll wait here." Kevin nodded and then resumed his work, pulling out his phone and making calls as he walked away.

He seemed very busy.

If Kevin was this swamped, Everett must be even busier.

Quincy tried to calm herself down, hoping things weren't as bad as she thought. Maybe... just maybe, it was all an act by Everett? He had risked his life to protect Dorothy before; he couldn't have just stopped loving her so quickly.

With that thought, Quincy comforted herself, although her fists remained clenched tightly.

Kevin took the elevator straight to the CEO's office and knocked on the door.

Hearing a response, he pushed open the door, "Mr. Lopez!" Everett the middle of a saying sternly, "Let's call it adelmeeting and glanced at Kevin, for now. We'll continue tomorrow." He shut down his computer, only to hear Kevin excitedly say, "Mr. Lopez, you were right on the money! The moment I stepped off the elevator she crushing over to find me! I did as you instructed, played it cool, and her desperation only grew!"
