Chapter 1122
"Oh, right." Dorothy suddenly remembered something and asked, "After I left the hospital, didn't Quincy check on you? Did she figure out what's wrong with you?"
Previously, the doctor had run a battery of tests, but they couldn't pinpoint the cause of Everett's fainting spells or come up with a diagnosis.
"No."
"So what's this medical mystery you've got? Maybe you should see a specialist, don't put it off."
Ignoring a health issue won't make it go away! Whether it's Quincy or someone else, you need to get better.
"Yeah, I will."
Everett didn't want to worry Dorothy, so he nodded in agreement.
Since Kevin wasn't there to pick him up, and Dorothy wouldn't let him leave on his own, Everett ended up texting Kevin.
Only when she saw his car pull up did Dorothy open the door.
"Drive safe," she paused, "both you and Kevin."
"Will do."
Everett gave her a deep look, then slowly turned to leave.
He wished he could stay longer, but that wasn't possible.
Staying over at Dorothy's, if Quincy found out, he'd have even more to explain.
And that would only delay things further.
But the end of all this wasn't far off!
Once he gets the final cure, that day will come.
Dorothy watched as Everett got into the car and drove off. She didn't immediately go back inside but stood there watching.
Until the car was out of sight, she finally turned away.
Somehow, ever since she saw Everett today, she felt something off about him!
Different from the Everett who insisted on breaking up.
But if asked what exactly was different, she couldn't pinpoint it.
It was as though...
He had some unspeakable secret.
In the car, Everett leaned against the window, resting.
Kevin didn't dare to speak, driving in silence.
Suddenly, Everett broke the silence.
"From now on, if I get sick, don't tell Dorothy."Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
"...Mr. Lopez, given today's situation, I thought Ms. Sanchez needed to know!"
"I don't need it." He frowned, "It'll scare her."
By doing this, Everett intended to
keep Dorothy safely out of the whole affair.
she stumbled upon
something fishy, wouldn't all his efforts be in vain?
"Mr. Lopez, is this illness part of your plan?"
Kevin hesitated but eventually asked.
After a few seconds, Everett replied, "Yes."
"You've factored in your own health?!" Kevin was astonished.
He hadn't expected this.
"I can't let anyone harm Dorothy."
"But you can't joke around with your health! relies
ee whole Lopez (
you." Kevin
ett's behavior sinc
from
Everett's behavior since waking up.
Because he seemed indifferent to his illness, almost as if... he had anticipated it.
"I'll be fine."
"What exactly is this illness? Even the hospital doctors can't figure it out! Could it be life-threatening?"
Everett chuckled, "No, and you don't have to worry about me. Dorothy is still here, and I want to be alive for her."
"Fair enough." Upon hearing this,
Kevin finally relaxed his worried Ms.
expression, "Then I won't notisnet
Sanchez next time. I'll follow your instructions!"
"Yeah, Dorothy gets scared easily. Let's not frighten her."
