His slender fingers paused for a moment before he replied.
[Alright, I'll pick you up when I get back tomorrow.]
Not long after he put down his phone, the doctor came out of the emergency room. Upon seeing Everett, the doctor's expression turned serious.
"Mr. Lopez, your mother's condition is rather peculiar. Once she falls into a deep coma like this, she loses all will to live. It's likely due to some kind of shock. I checked her records, and she has severe depression, which is a serious matter."
"I understand." Everett replied. He was well aware of his mother's situation. "How is she now?"
"She is out of immediate danger for now. We'll have to see how her vitals are, and if she remains stable, she'll be moved to a room."
Everett heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
"Thank you for all your hard work."
"I'm just doing my job, Mr. Lopez. There’s no need for thanks." The doctor spoke with a smile.
As he was about to leave, he turned back and said, "Please avoid causing her any more stress. Try to go along with her wishes as much as possible. Remember, she is seriously ill."
After all, doctors weren't miracle workers. There was no guarantee that they could save her again if something like this happened again.
"Understood."
As Everett watched the doctor leave, he rubbed his temples.
His phone had several missed calls from Kevin.
Clearly, there was something urgent.
But how could he possibly leave the country tomorrow, given the current situation?
Finding a quiet spot, Everett called Kevin back.
"Mr. Lopez, is there a change in your schedule tomorrow?"
Perhaps sensing her son's resistance, Amanda seemed to have an epiphany.
"You...you're in love with...that cleaning lady?"
"Mom, you've just come out of the ER. Rest now. I'll call Dad and let him know he should come back as soon as possible to take care of you."
"No."
"Then go back to Elysian Country to recuperate. My work here is really busy; I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you."
Amanda moved her lips, clutching Everett's hand tightly. "You want me to leave, so you can marry someone else?"
"The doctor said you're not well and need to relax. Let us deal with these things later."
"Everything else is negotiable, but Heather has to join the Lopez family." Amanda stared at her son unblinkingly. "I will not accept that cleaner."

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....
