Was it possible that Dorothy had somehow crossed someone? "Did you instruct anyone to harm Dorothy?" "I would never-" Jonathan's words cut off abruptly mid-sentence.

His thoughts had raced to what Quincy had told him.

To make his son agree to marry her within three days, she'd surely need to pull sstrings.

Targeting Everett directly would be too difficult.

But finding a weakness through Dorothy? That would be much easier and a precise way to manipulate Everett.

If Quincy was behind this, Jonathan had to admit he was impressed by the girl's boldness. He had pegged her as naive and simple, but she turned out to be quite daring.

"I didn't have a hand in it anyway. You should look into others," Jonathan chose not to share his suspicions. And he didn't want to say it out loud.

After all, as long as the end goal was achieved, he couldn't care less about Dorothy's fate.

Everett hung up without a word.

Returning to his room, he found Dorothy awake. She looked incredibly weak and even her lips were drained from color, "Everett..." "I'm here." He gently pulled her into his embrace, soothingly stroking her back, "Dorothy, have you noticed anything unusual about anyone you've been in contact with lately?" Unusual? Dorothy chuckled weakly, "Since I left my job, you know everyone I've been in contact with. If I had to say there was something unusual, it might be... you." "Me?" She nodded, "Yes! You've never been the type to have private dealings with Dr. Quincy." Everett frowned slightly, "Did she tell you that?" "Not exactly. I saw it myself." Dorothy met his gaze, her voice sak but firm "You know? When I interactions with Dr.

Quincy, I got jealous, even though I didn't want to admit it!" "I was in contact with her only because-" Dorothy placed her hand over his mouth, stopping him from explaining further.

"I know all about it! I understand your personality as well as your habits. I know you reached out to her because of me! But it still madeuncomfortable." She had tried to adjust her feelings many times, but what she truly felt was something she couldn't deceive herself about.

"Then I won't contact her anymore. There are plenty of other doctors." Everett immediately reached for his phone to delete Quincy's contact.

Dorothy quickly stopped him, "I didn't tell you this to make you delete her! I... I just want you to be happy." "Hm?" "You thought I didn't love you, right? Do you still think so?" Dorothy leaned into his chest, listening to his heartbeat, feeling at that moment that all her previous stubbornness and hard-headedness were pointless. What was all that for? Everett was stunned for several seconds, unable to grasp the sudden change. Her swift turnaround made him feel as if he was dreaming.

"Why... are you saying all this now?" he asked.

"Maybe I'm afraid of keeping these words to myself. Now that I can speak, I'll say it all." Dorothy took a deep breath, Though I don't know what's gotten into me, I can tell it's serious from your face! Everett, if it's really hard to cure, don't trouble yourself or the doctors anymore." "No!" "Letfinish." Dorothy squeezed his arm, "I don't want you to do things you dislike for my sake anymore! You have to promisethat you mustn't followif I truly can't be saved."
