Everett murmured, "You're the only one for me."
"No other woman could catch your eye?"
"Nope."
"Right, you've already shown me that."
Dorothy let out a sigh of relief, "Hurry up and propose, I can't wait any longer."
Everett stroked her hair, over and over, until she fell asleep, though his eyes remained open.
...
Dorothy's illness came on suddenly, and despite Dr. Quincy managing to stabilize her condition with medication, there was still some organ damage.
So, these days, Quincy had been practically living in the lab, trying to find a way to improve Dorothy's health.
When Ronin showed up, Quincy had been up for two days straight, just finishing up an experiment and getting ready to attempt a clinical trial.
"Quincy! Get this guy out of here, he's blocking my way!"
Outside, the bodyguard had stopped him, and Ronin could only stand at the door, shouting.
Quincy got so annoyed she even considered calling the cops!
Now, she didn't feel any connection to the Caldwell family, but if she called the police, who knows if Ronin might drag her down with him.
Or even turn the tables on her!
Without the Caldwell backing, she wouldn't stand a chance, not just in Eldorria City, but in all of Swevia Country. Once respected as a member of the Caldwell family, if everyone knew she was at odds with them, it wouldn't bode well.
She couldn't just expect Everett to protect her.
"Leverage?"
Ronin always knew how to focus on the key points.
He stepped forward, only to be stopped by the bodyguard again, left standing at the door.
"You mean, Everett is under your control now? Then make him marry you, before the Lopez family announces another woman as their daughter-in-law, it'll be too late!"
"Why should I rush?"
"Our Caldwell family business—"
"What's that got to do with me?" Quincy cut him off, "I told you, the last time I helped the Caldwell family was the last! Whatever happens, don't drag me into it."
Ronin was desperate, "But you promised you'd make Everett marry you!"

Why didn't Jeffrey call Everett from the office? Lock his door instruct security to not let anyone in and speak to Everett on the phone? Or send him a text giving him a quick summary of what's up and that he's on his way over. That way when he runs into Heather on his way out he informs her Everett already knows....
