Dorothy's face turned ashen. She was being stubborn, insistent on seeing things in black and white, utterly unwilling to listen to anyone else. It didn't matter if it was Quincy, an outsider trying to talk ssense into her, or even if it was Everett or Karen. No one's words could penetrate her resolve.

"Dr. Quincy, you mentioned wanting a 'til death do us part' kind of love, something Everett can't give you!" Quincy just shrugged, "So when you askif I like Everett, I say I don't know. I'm not lying." Because her mind had always been on medicine-performing surgeries, saving patients tand again! Quincy hadn't really thought about what she wanted in a future partner, the expectations she had for a companion.

In her mind, men were all about loving every new face they saw. Her own father was like that, and Simeon was even worse, always chasing after women! But then she saw Everett, saw how purely he loved Dorothy! Quincy would never forget that moment in the emergency room, the situation so dire she was almost ready to give up on a patient, but merely repeating Dorothy's nby his bedside miraculously turned everything around. The situation began to improve.

It was truly a miracle. Even with years of medical experience, Quincy had seldom witnessed such a case.

"You don't like Everett, you just like the way he is with me! But he will never be that way with you." Dorothy's words were firm. But to Quincy, they sounded more like mockery.

"How would we know if we don't try? You and the Lopez family have too much baggage, it's all so messy, but I'm different, I don't have any of that." That was her advantage.

"You won't get the chance." "Oh, is that so?" Quincy stood up, still with that serene and gentle smile, "The bloodwork is done, you can leave now." || "Ms. Sanchez, you may have forgotten what you said in the past, but I haven't. It counts for something here! You were the one who gave up on Mr. Lopez first; now you want to go back on that decision. We're adults here, we need to be responsible for what we say." Dorothy clenched her fists, "So, you want to compete withfor Everett." "Maybe, I wouldn't have deleted that tweet otherwise." Quincy shrugged, "I'll decide when I've thought it through! I'm not like you, unsure of what you truly want." S She needed clarity, to understand which path to take. The Caldwell family was a den of wolves she couldn't return to, and her only option seemed to be clinging to Everett as a lifeline. What other choice did she have? As Dorothy emerged from Quincy's place, Everett immediately went over to hold her hand.

"What's wrong? Did the blood draw hurt?" She looked pale.

Dorothy shook her head, "No, it's just... I had a few words with Dr. Quincy." Everett frowned, glancing at the now closed door, "What did she say to you?" "...Let's get in the car first." Dorothy wanted to think things through before deciding whether to share with Everett. But clearly, be was anxious. It was rare to see such emotion on Everett's face. S As soon as Dorothy got into the passenger seat, he couldn't wait to ask, "What did Quincy say to you?" "It's nothing much." She cleared her throat, eyes downcast, "Dr. Quincy said she might be falling for you." || || "But it's just a possibility, she's not sure herself."
