"I... I've lost everything... everything..." As Dorothy finished uttering these sad words, she started to fall backward, losing consciousness.

Thankfully, Kenneth had been watching out for her. He outstretched his hand at her back just in time to keep her from falling.

Without wasting a moment, he scooped her up in his arms and sprinted towards the nurse's station. "Doctor! Where's the doctor?! Someone's fainted here!" Everett couldn't find his phone, which immediately gave him an uneasy feeling.

He was about to leave the room when he saw his father standing at the door, accompanied by Amanda's primary physician, who had taken care of her when she was abroad.

“Where are you off to? Your mother is hanging by a thread, and you want to leave?” “I need to find my phone.” Everett replied while frowning slightly.

“Your phone?! Can't whatever it is wait until your mother is stable?!” Jonathan stood firm and blocked the doorway with his imposing figure.

The doctor standing beside him chimed in. “Indeed, Mr. Lopez, your mother’s condition is critical. She could wake up at any moment, or... she might not wake up at all.” "I just need to make a call, then I'll be back." Everett wasn't worried about work. Kevin could handle that. He was worried that Dorothy might be upset if she couldn't reach him.

“Do you have any idea who your mother despises the most in this world? Don't think | don't know who you're planning to call! | won't allow it!" "I wasn't asking for your permission." With that, Everett tried to push past the pair.

His tall frame could easily break through, but at that critical moment, Jonathan spoke up. "Don't make the call. Your mother wouldn't want to hear that woman's voice. Just send her a message using my phone." With that, he handed his phone over to Everett.

Everett didn't immediately take it; instead, he glanced at his father. "Where's my phone? Did you take it?" "Who knows where your phone is? | just arrived. Don't you just want to talk to that woman? Just send her a message from my phone. If she has any issues, she can call this number." When he saw that his son still hadn't moved, Jonathan added, "Are you really going to fall out with your parents over her?" Everett looked at the phone being offered. Finally, he took it and frowned as he sent a message to Dorothy.

[It's Everett. | lost my phone. If you need anything, call me on this number.] Fearing his father might intercept the message, Everett waited until it was successfully sent before returning the phone.

"If she replies, let me know." Jonathan snorted, clearly irritated. "I really don't understand what you see in that girl. How does she compare to Heather?" "Dorothy is my wife. Please show some respect." Everett replied calmly. For Dorothy's sake, he was now standing against his parents, regardless of the consequences.

His initial plan was to gradually help his parents accept Dorothy, but that seemed unlikely now.

So, he had to make his stance clear to prevent anyone from thinking they could negotiate.

Jonathan was about to angrily retort when the doctor gave him a meaningful look.

Their main goal for the day was to keep Everett there. If they kept arguing, they might just drive him away. And that would really be disastrous.
