The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 1263

Jeffrey was battling his own nausea, trying to keep it together as he moved closer to assist.

"Quincy was tied up, and her arm was broken. She couldn't have left anything behind! Everett, you need to calm down!"

But Everett wasn't listening. His bare hands sifted through the clotted blood, searching desperately.

"Everett!"

"Everett, there’s nothing here!"

"Shut up!" Everett barked back, his voice fierce, "I have to find it. This is Dorothy's only hope. I must find it!"

Watching Everett's almost obsessive behavior, Jeffrey felt a deep sorrow but also understood.

This chance at life was Dorothy's gift to him.

Jeffrey knew the depth of Everett's love for Dorothy, having witnessed their journey together.

If Dorothy were to die because the antidote wasn't found, Everett wouldn't want to go on living.

"Everett, Quincy... she wouldn’t have left anything! We can find another way to get the antidote," Jeffrey tried to reason.

"What other way?" Everett snapped, his gaze piercing. "Do you have another way?"

"..." Jeffrey was at a loss. Even when Quincy was alive, they couldn't think of a better solution.

And now, she was gone.

"Maybe the Caldwells know something. I'll get someone to bring them in for questioning, alright?" Before Jeffrey could finish, Everett froze.

Right next to Quincy's left hand, he'd found a series of numbers!

Although it was unclear what these numbers meant, especially since they seemed incomplete, any clue was better than none.
