"Mom and Dad only set me up with this one."
Quincy didn't beat around the bush, giving Dorothy a straightforward answer.
"He won't ever marry you."
That was Dorothy's confidence speaking!
"Mr. Lopez said the same thing. He told me that before," Quincy inserted the needle into her vein, watching the blood flow out with an indifferent gaze. "Mr. Lopez has always been consistent."
Dorothy raised an eyebrow, sensing there was more to Quincy's story.
"The only one who hasn't been consistent is me," Quincy finally continued after a pause.
"You... fell for Everett?!"
It wasn't surprising, really. Everett was such a catch that anyone who spent time with him would be drawn in, but...
Quincy had never shown the slightest interest in him before.
"I don't know," she said, tugging at her lip, mostly focused on drawing the blood. "Honestly, I'm not lying to you, and there's no reason for me to."
"You've seen with your own eyes how much Everett loves me. Falling for him is a dead-end," Dorothy said, not backing down. "Do I need to tell you about Heather's story?"
Quincy shook her head, "No need. I've heard bits and pieces from my father, and Jonathan mentioned something when he came to see me. That girl, Heather, she truly loved Mr. Lopez."
"And you want to be the next her?"
"Of course not." Quincy calmly removed the needle, chuckling, "But I won't make the same foolish mistakes as Miss Heather!"
Dorothy felt a sense of danger.
Even though Heather was ruthless and did numerous evil deeds, her actions were superficial and easily exposed.
