Quincy had been on pins and needles, waiting for Everett's reply.
But as days turned into nights with no call or message, her anxiety began to wane. Realizing that according to her calculated timeline, Everett was due for another episode soon.
And sure enough, the very next day, Quincy's phone rang with Kevin on the other end, his voice laced with urgency.
“Dr. Quincy, you've got to come to the hospital! Mr. Lopez has passed out again. We ran all sorts of tests, but nothing's showing up. You're our only hope.”
She almost smirked at that, but managed to keep her voice filled with feigned concern.
“Right now? But... I'm worried Mr. Lopez doesn't want to see me. He made it clear he didn't want me around unless he reached out first.”
“With the state he's in, you're the only one who can help Mr. Lopez now! Dr. Quincy, where are you? I'll come pick you up.”
“Is that really okay?”
“I'm begging you on behalf of Mr. Lopez!”
With a sigh, Quincy relayed her location to him.
After hanging up, she turned to her wardrobe, selecting a dress that was the epitome of grace and beauty, and applied a light touch of makeup.
With Dorothy out of the picture, it was her time to shine.
Kevin's car arrived shortly after, his greeting warm and grateful.
