"I'm fine, really." Dorothy knew Everett must be worried sick about her, so she walked over to Dr. Quincy's side and whispered, "If he asks about me, just tell him I'm doing great! I don't want him to worry."
Dr. Quincy's lips curled into a smile, revealing two charming dimples that made her look like a college student rather than a seasoned physician.
"You two are really a pair. He told me the exact same thing."
Dorothy paused, a flicker of concern crossing her face. "Is he okay, though? He's not hiding anything serious from me, is he?"
Dr. Quincy patted her shoulder gently. "Don't worry! He's fine. I wouldn't tarnish my reputation by letting something happen to one of my patients. But you need to take your leg seriously. Mr. Lopez is right; you need to take care of yourself."
"It's just a fracture. I had surgery and everything."
"But looking at your wounds, it seems like there might be an inflammation. Did you leave the ward and come here right after your surgery?" Dr. Quincy always had an eye to detect these tricks.
Dorothy showed an embarrassed, sheepish grin. "I was worried about him..."
"I understand. But Mr. Lopez is out of danger now, so it's time to focus on your own recovery." Dr. Quincy moved behind her wheelchair and began to push it forward. "Let's head over to the consulting room. I'll take a look at you."
Dorothy knew it would be foolish to argue now.
"Thank you, Dr. Quincy."
