"The flowers weren't from Everett?"

"Of course not! You told Mr. Lopez not to send any!"

Dorothy furrowed her perfectly arched brows, her gaze falling upon the large bouquet of roses, "Wait, I don't get it. Why would Everett cancel his hospital appointment for the shots?"

Was there a connection between the two?

It couldn't possibly be that Everett was trying to gain her sympathy by playing the sick card, could it?

No, that didn't make sense. If that were his intention, he wouldn't have kept his illness a secret from her from day one.
