The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 938

Everett immediately steadied her with both hands. He sensed Dorothy's discomfort with sharp intuition. Her delicate face paled instantly, yet she tried to muster a facade of being fine.

"Does it hurt a lot?" he asked.

Dorothy shook her head, "No..."

Everett knew why she was lying, thus feeling a mix of helplessness and frustration. Without further ado, he whipped out his phone to call a doctor for Dorothy.

She tried to stop him, but before she could utter a word, darkness enveloped her vision, and she passed out cold.

Thankfully, Everett was there to catch her, preventing her from hitting the ground.

Jeffrey was shocked at her condition, "What's happened to her?"

"Dorothy's been like this off and on these past few days. I need to take her now, Jeffrey. Call me if you need anything."

"Alright! Take care of Dorothy first!"

After all, her condition seemed more serious than Karen's.

...

Quincy felt a strange calm knowing that it was Everett who had her confined here. At least she was sure these people wouldn't harm her, not immediately posing any threat to her life.

Due to the long flight without rest, Quincy fell asleep on the couch soon after sitting down.

When she came to, she heard footsteps and barely opened her eyes to see Everett walking in.

Dressed in a suit, his handsome face stern and his gaze intimidating. It seemed... he knew everything.

Everett had no patience for her story. He grabbed her by the throat, his voice thunderous, "The antidote!"

But as his grip tightened, Quincy only showed signs of discomfort without a hint of pleading. It was as if she was certain he wouldn't really kill her.

Suddenly, Everett released her, allowing Quincy to gasp for numerous air and cough violently.

"Give me the antidote. This has nothing to do with Dorothy!" he yelled.

"Ugh... I told you, the suitcase, it's in the suitcase...!"

He frowned, then signaled Kevin with a look.

As Kevin left the room, Quincy caught her breath, "Mr. Lopez, don't worry, I won't let Ms. Sanchez die! Because I know, if she dies, my time would be up too."
