Chapter 1229
"If it's a mental disorder, it's not the end of the world.
I can be there to help him find the best doctor for treatment!
But right now, the most important thing is to get pregnant as soon as possible. Once there's a new member of the Lopez family on the way, who would dare to challenge my position as Mrs. Lopez?" "Right."
Everett nodded, his gaze shifting back to the blindfold.
Quincy quickly walked over to pick it up.
Just as she was about to tie it on, she suddenly remembered something and looked at Everett, "Oh, Mr. Lopez, I remembered something! I've recently developed a new supplement that's particularly beneficial for men trying to conceive. Make sure you take it when you get home."
She handed him a small bottle.
It was an antidote, Everett knew.
But he also knew it wasn't the ultimate cure. Getting Quincy to hand over the real deal wouldn't be that easy.
"Got it."
Everett took the bottle, allowing Quincy to blindfold herself and lie obediently on the bed, just like the last time, her limbs tied.
However, this time, Quincy wasn't as frightened about what was to come.
Having been through it once, she felt somewhat prepared.
Assured that she couldn't escape, Everett couldn't bear to stay in the room any longer.
Just as he was about to leave, Quincy suddenly called out to him!
"Mr. Lopez!"
"...What is it?"
Hearing Everett's voice seemed to calm her a bit, "Sorry, I know you don't like me talking at times like these, but... could we possibly make it a bit shorter this time? It's just a bit much for me." She would only dare to say this with her eyes covered.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
Considering how far things had gone between her and Everett, making a small request didn't seem so inappropriate.
"No, we need to make sure you get pregnant as soon as possible. You'll just have to endure."
Everett couldn't possibly agree.
If she wasn't exhausted enough to fall asleep, would he really leave Dorothy alone at the Bay Residence in the middle of the night to come here and pretend?
He neither had the time nor the inclination.
"Oh..."
Quincy felt a slight disappointment.
Not because of anything else but because Everett's voice sounded so cold, as if he had no affection for her at all.
Their current relationship was purely for the sake of having a child and then getting married.
But then she thought, being at this stage wasn't easy, and things would improve over time. Everett would eventually fall in love with her.
After her visit to the hospital, Dorothy was completely stripped of her work duties!
Even though Kevin was there, and she need to worry about
anyth
, Dorothy wanted to net
Idle time made her feel useless.
But with Dorothy out of work, Karen was thrilled.
Jeffrey dropped her off early in the morning.
So early that Everett hadn't even left for work!
Opening the door to see Jeffrey's face nearly made Everett think he was still dreaming. "What are you doing here?"
"Heh, I hope I'm not interrupting your... marital bliss?" Jeffrey grinned, showing his teeth, "Bro, I had no choice! My wife was going stir crazy, wanted to hang out with her bestie, and as her husband, I've got to support her fully!"
Everett's gaze swept past Jeffrey to Karen standing behind him, and then he tightened the collar of his dark robe, "Come on in."
