"I wish I could stay out of all this drama too if I can."

All she wanted was to be a doctor, to heal and to be free.

So Quincy tried to persuade Dorothy to drop the case, to give in to Jonathan's demands and make things work with Everett.

But unfortunately, everyone had their reasons. She had reasons she couldn't forgive, and Quincy had reasons she couldn't refuse.

Dorothy slept through the night without a single dream.

She was slowly waking up the next morning to the familiar ceiling of the Bay Residence's master bedroom, momentarily unsure if she was still trapped in a dream.

"You're awake." Everett's voice broke the silence.

Dorothy followed the sound, taking a few seconds before her face showed recognition.

"Yeah."

"Did you sleep well?" Everett asked, pulling her up from the bed like he was treating a kid.

Dorothy smiled, "It's been a while since I've slept that long."

"I had someone check the medication you were prescribed. It's good for treating your condition, but it's not meant for long-term use. I'm worried about dependency. So tonight, we'll try a different method to help you sleep."

A different method?

Dorothy blinked, her gaze meeting Everett's curling eyes.
