"You're trying to blackmail me with this." He said.
"Mr. Lopez, I think you'd better hurry up and get that antidote to Ms. Sanchez, don't you think?" Quincy pointed at the box, "Otherwise, once Ms. Sanchez falls into a deep coma, it might be too late to bring her back."
Everett's hands were clenched into fists. Despite all his calculations, he hadn't considered this hidden threat by Dorothy's side.
Especially since Dorothy had assured him that Quincy was the last person she'd suspect! That showed how much trust Dorothy placed in Quincy. And gaining Dorothy's trust had been his desire for the longest time.
Everett didn't say anything more. After pausing for a few seconds, he took the antidote and left.
On the way back to the hospital, Kevin hesitated before cautiously speaking up, "Mr. Lopez, should we get this antidote tested? Just in case..."
"She wouldn't dare put Dorothy in danger." Everett said.
Now, Quincy had bound herself and Dorothy together. If he wanted to rid himself of her, he would inevitably have to give up on Dorothy as well.
Quincy was betting on the fact that he couldn't possibly abandon Dorothy.
...
After taking the antidote, it wasn't long before Dorothy woke up.
Further blood tests showed she was almost back to normal. All previous anomalies had vanished, leaving the doctors bewildered and asking what kind of medicine she had taken.
"How's Karen doing?" The moment Dorothy woke up, she immediately asked about Karen.
"She's fine. Jeffrey's by her side, so nothing will happen," Everett said as he gently patted her back, "Worry about yourself first."
"Me?"
