Keh couldn't shake off the despair he felt in the hospital, and Lane couldn't et the shthe world had thrown his way for so long.

All thanks to Everett! Kicked out like a stray dog, without even a sliver of a chance to turn things around, firmly under Everett's heel.

How could he rid himself of this hatred unless Everett met his demise? "That would be for the best." Keh could finally let go.

No more rummaging through the house for santidote.

By the sounds of it, Lane's hiding spot was well concealed.

The past few days, the media had been both busy and thrilled.

The CEO of Lopez Corporation had been in the hospital for nearly a week and, with no news leaking out, it only spelled out that the situation was dire! "Rumors have it that Mr. Everett Lopez is also involved in a gruesmurder case, having been to the police station for questioning before. Whether this is related to his current critical condition remains unknown!" "Everett, so young, might leave this world, leaving us questioning the future of Lopez Corporation. Can the business legend continue?" Outside, reporters faced the cameras, spinning all sorts of speculations and guesses.

Dorothy, dressed as a nurse and masked, sneaked a peek outside.

Quite the spectacle, indeed! But upon her return, she was noticeably downcast.

After Everett wrapped up sproject details, closing his laptop, he noticed his lady sitting silently by the bed for quite stime.

He stood, striding over with long steps and gently touched the top of her head.

"What's wrong? Didn't you go down to check out themotion? Did someone say something to you?" Dorothy shook her head, "It's not that." "Are you missing Abigail and Langston? I'll have Kevin bring them over, no worries! This will even make the outside world more convinced of my demise, wanting to see my son and daughter one last time." "..." Dorothy seemed conflicted, sighing after a while, "Everett, don't you think that making such a big fuss, with all the media speculation about you, if you really stage your death, they will report on it! But after everything... it's like you're playing the media." en.kikistories Those people, sharp and not easily fooled, could bring negative attention to Lopez Corporation! Seeing her worry so much about him, Everett couldn't help but smile wryly, lifting her chin to meet his gaze.

"My darling girl, worrying so much for me?" "I'm just stating the facts." "My bad, I should've explained in more detail. When the timees, you just need to cry, Kevin will be in on it, and you, Jeffrey, will just handle the grieving. Say nothing, and my 'death' will remain mere media speculation." en.kikistories Dorothy paused, "...I didn't realize that was an option." "Can you be happy now? No more sighs." Everett pulled her into his embrace, deepening his voice, "Even if I truly lost Lopez Corporation, trading it for the antidote, I would: I'm only trying to minimis losses within what's feasible, without considering whether I should or shouldn't." en.kikistories The antidote was non-negotiable.

"Lopez Corporation is your life's work; I don't want you to lose it because of me...' "Thepany is my life's work, yes, but you, you are my life." His lips curved, kissing her forehead, then trailing down to her lips, "Which do you think is more important?"
