The CEO's Hidden Love: Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires novel Chapter 495

Inside the room, Quincy was even more surprised than Dorothy was.

"Ah? Jonathan, you must be kidding me!"

Jonathan seemed to struggle for words before finally letting out a chuckle, "Well, my wife and I are planning a trip back to Elysian Country. Got some business to take care of, so I'll be counting on you to look after Everett! I trust your medical skills."

"Don't worry, Mr. Lopez is out of the woods now. You may just go and handle your business!"

"Alright."

Knowing Jonathan was coming out, Dorothy quickly ducked into an empty room to avoid crossing paths with him.

Dorothy knocked on the door after he left.

"Ms. Sanchez, you're here." Quincy said, turning to fetch the ointment for her.

As she searched, she suddenly paused and cautiously asked, "How long have you been here?"

Hopefully, she hadn't heard the conversation with Jonathan.

"Just got here." Dorothy didn't want Quincy to feel awkward. After all, she was always so kind and warm-hearted. It was clear that Quincy held no other intentions towards Everett.

And even if she did, Dorothy wasn't in any position to feel jealous or to push her away.

Everett had been seriously injured while saving her, and it was Quincy who had pulled him back from death.

Their families had been friends for many years and shared a deep bond.

Quincy indeed came from a well-to-do family, but she was not at all spoiled and lofty. Instead, she was any random girl with a gentle and approachable vibe.

Like now, she didn't hesitate to kneel down and apply the ointment to Dorothy's wounds.

She was just as professional as any hospital doctor, if not more attentive.

"Your wound isn't healing well; there's some infection. Thankfully, your X-rays don't show any major issues. You should try getting rid of the wheelchair and walking around a bit to get some exercise."

"Okay." Dorothy nodded and then softly asked, "Did Everett aggravate his injury just now?"
