He rarely spoke to her in such a tone, and that caught her off guard momentarily.
Having said his piece, Everett regretted it as well. He was just too scared that Quincy might hurt Dorothy again, thus he wanted to keep her away from him.
"I'm sorry, I was a bit..." he apologized.
"It's okay! It was work-related anyway so I shouldn't have interfered. If you're feeling stuck, like you deliberately didn't want to return Dr. Quincy's calls, just pretend I never messaged you!" Dorothy might not know the specifics, but she was aware that anything involving the Lopez Corporation likely involved substantial funds. Being the CEO, he had to make his own considerations. She shouldn't have relayed Quincy's message in the first place.
"Are you upset?" Everett's voice carried a hint of caution.
Dorothy chuckled, "Not at all! I was worried about upsetting you."
"I wouldn't be upset with you." Everett paused, "You're at the hospital?"
"Yeah! Karen was being discharged, but the baby fell asleep, so we thought we'd let her wake up on her own. It's a bit chilly today, didn't want the baby catching a cold with the temperature drop."
"I'll come pick you, Abigail, and Langston up once I wrap things up here."
"Great! You can head straight to Jeffrey's place, we're about to leave the hospital too."
"Alright."
After hanging up, she sighed, hoping her WhatsApp message wouldn't cause any trouble for Everett.

I don't agree with not letting him in. That just seems cruel and besides wasn't the whole point of getting pregnant again was for him to experience and travel the journey of pregnancy with her?...
Sometimes Karen can be such a drama queen and immature....
For some reason I am now feeling suspicious about Kevin's new girlfriend....
