Before Dorothy could react, Heather immediately reached out to him and screamed in pain as soon as she saw Everett.
"Everett, save me! I...I'm bleeding."
Everett's gaze shifted to her, and, indeed, Heather was covered in blood. She looked horrifying.
Everett immediately dialed 911. He then scooped Heather up and quickly left the office, without saying a word to Dorothy. He did not even spare her a glance.
After they left, Heather's assistant hurried in. She saw the blood on the ground and then looked at Dorothy in terror.
Was this a crime scene or something?
Dorothy didn't expect this to happen. She was just defending herself, and it turned into such a mess.
It was Heather who started it.
More and more people gathered from the Legal Department. It wasn’t until Everett's assistant arrived that the commotion died down.
"Get back to work, everyone. Mr. Lopez said there will be no discussing this! No photos or spreading rumors! Get back to work!"
After everyone left, he came to Dorothy and whispered, "Mr. Lopez just called me. He wants you to wait for him at Bay Residence after work."
"Okay." She nodded, but she didn't leave immediately. Instead, she took a tissue from the desk to wipe up Heather's remaining blood from the carpet, then packed it up.
Even though Heather had admitted their relationship, if she wanted to use it as evidence, she still needed it in black and white.
She hadn't forgotten why she had come here.
…
In the hospital, Heather was rushed into the emergency room again.
Due to her surgical wound reopening, she lost a lot of blood and fainted in the ambulance.
Everett frowned. "I'm not sure what happened yet. I just brought Ms. Heather to the hospital first."
Jeffrey stared at him as rage welled up in his chest. "Fine. If you don't know, then we should let the police find out! If you say Dorothy didn't do it on purpose, then call the police. Let them investigate!"
As he was about to take out his phone, Everett snatched it away.
"Jeffrey, this is a company matter. You have no right to interfere."
This was the first time Everett had spoken to Jeffrey in this tone. Despite being in a position of power, he had never used such a commanding tone.
For Dorothy, he really had broken too many records.
Jeffrey was taken aback by Everett's icy warning and calmed down a bit, no longer making a scene.
After a while, he let out a sigh. "Everett, you really need to stop this game. Have you thought about the consequences?"

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....
