Knowing she was about to get a lecture, Dorothy quickly pleaded for mercy. "I just forgot, it wasn't on purpose! And look, it's almost noon. I'll just make it a big brunch, eat a little more." "What do you feel like having?" "Um... I haven't decided." If it weren't for Everett's call, Dorothy wouldn't have even remembered to eat.

"Let's have sclassic food of Havenbrook City. Been a while since you had that, right?" Everett's voice was gentle.

Dorothy eagerly agreed, "Sure! I'll do that. You go on with your work. Don't worry about me." "And then you hang up, get back to work, and later tellyou're having three meals at once?" "...Absolutely not." Everett laughed, "Cdown to my parking spot.' Dorothy paused, "You're back at the office?" "Yeah, to make sure you eat." Everett's tone was light, but Dorothy could hear a hint of fatigue hidden in his voice. Working in a hospital was indeed draining. He probably hadn't slept all night.

Dorothy quickly tidied up her desk, grabbed her purse, and dashed for the elevator.

Sure enough, Everett's car was there in the parking garage. He was leaning against it, head down, smoking a cigarette. Dorothy realized Everett must have gone back to his place at Bay Residence to change his clothes before coming here. His cleanliness was something else.

"You should be resting at home, not out here making sure I eat." "I'm supervising, not accompanying." Everett saw her, extinguished his cigarette, "The moment you're out of my sight, you don't follow the rules." Dorothy squinted her eyes and smiled, "So, I'm the rebel away from camp, not following orders.' "Which is why I have to bring the orders to you." Everett shrugged and opened the passenger door for her.

Dorothy got in, about to tell him about her encounter with Quincy, but then she held back. She didn't want this happy moment spoiled by someone else. Dorothy was amazed Everett, despite his busy schedule, had found such a great diner.

Dorothy loved the food, but she naturally didn't have a big appetite. For her, this meal was already a lot. "Got anything at the project team this afternoon?" "Not really but I don't want the others to feel like I'm getting special trenent. If they're working, d be there too."

"Yeah, my mom... she's stable now." "Oh." Dorothy wasn't sure how to feel, so she just nodded.

"I can't sleep alone in Bay Residence, stay with me." Everett was straightforward. It made Dorothy's cheeks flush.

"I... I..." Even after spending so many nights together, she still felt embarrassingly shy when the topic cup.

Everett, resigned, smiled wryly, "What are you thinking? Just to rest, nothing more." Anything else... could wait until after a good rest.
