The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 506

Dorothy glanced into his eyes, the corners of her lips curving into an uneasy smile.

"I trust you, you know."

"As long as you do, that's all that matters."

"Yeah."

Dorothy shifted her gaze away, pretending to focus on the computer screen. But her vision was getting more and more blurred.

As her tears threatened to spill, she stood up in panic and turned her back to Everett, "Oh, I just remembered I haven't washed my face after waking up. I'll go freshen up!"

No sooner had Dorothy stepped into the restroom than the door opened again.

Quincy, concerned about Everett's injury—more about Everett himself—made a habit of checking in.

He walked in to find Everett alone in bed and paused, "Where's Ms. Sanchez?"

"She's washing up."

"Ah." Quincy stepped closer, slipping on medical gloves and began to inspect the wound with professional attentiveness. Whether the patient was someone from the Lopez family or not, Quincy always maintained her compassion as a doctor.

Having lived abroad for so long, and with an elder brother to inherit her family estate, Quincy had learned to be content in any situation. She never really longed for romance, content with the thought of remaining single for life. But witnessing the connection between Everett and Dorothy, she began to reconsider the idea of love.

She mused if a guy like Everett were to fancy her, she'd probably say yes.

When Dorothy returned, she was greeted by the sight of Everett on the bed with Quincy carefully tending to his injuries and offering gentle reminders now and then.

A thought struck her: if Everett had feelings for Quincy, maybe the Lopez family had thrown a grand wedding by now to welcome her with open arms.

Maybe Amanda wouldn't favor Heather as much either.
