Everett let go of her hand, pulling her back, not allowing her to face him directly. He didn’t want her to see the expression on his face.
"Alright, time for bed. Goodnight." He said.
"I really can…"
"Dorothy!" Everett's voice hinted at frustration, "You can't! I've been holding back for too long."
So, once the floodgates of desire opened, there was no turning back.
At least for tonight, she wouldn't be able to handle it.
Hearing his husky and strained voice, Dorothy wisely decided to drop the subject, "Oh, then goodnight."

After ending her call with Everett, Quincy put her phone aside. Her laptop screen was filled with lab data and cell culture results.
This was her umpteenth failure. She was getting irked despite her patience.
Failures weren't new to her, but this time, it felt especially frustrating. Or let’s say it wasn't just because of the failed experiments...
Finally unable to bear it any longer, Quincy stood up and walked to the window, opening it for some fresh air.
Her phone rang again.
It was her father Ronin calling.
"All thanks to you, our family had pulled through this crisis! If the Lopez family hadn't come through with the money on time, our family would've faced disaster!"
Ronin was ecstatic, but Quincy found his words grating.
