It was a new beginning.
Even though Quincy had her share of wrongdoings, the child was innocent.
If it hadn't been conceived, that would be one thing, but now, Everett's plan included the possibility of letting the child cinto the world, especially if Quincy continued to be uncooperative.
"Seriously, you're not suggesting I handle this myself, are you?" Everett raised an eyebrow, his tone dripping with sarcasm.
Dorothy sighed in frustration. "I'm being serious here! Can't we just... let her be pregnant but not bring the child into this world?" "It's Quincy's call to make! She's always been her own worst enemy. What can I do?" Everett pulled her close, their noses brushing. "My priority is your safety. If she hands over the antidote sooner, good for her. If not... there's nothing I can do." Quincy could have used her leverage to save Everett's life twice and in return, ask for financial help.

But she chose the crooked path, dragging Dorothy along with her.
And Dorothy was Everett's world! His concern for Quincy's wellbeing was the least of his worries now.
"Have you thought about it? Quincy won't treat this child well if he's born." It was a damned situation.
"You need to respect someone's destiny." Dorothy opened her mouth to argue, but Everett silenced her with a kiss, fierce and claiming.
"This matter is settled. I've kept you in the loop as promised, and you agreed not to interfere." "Alright, I get it." Quincy was exhausted.
She slept morningrough to the next sore it waking up with a up with a body so felt sliced by tiny blades.
The memory of the night before flooded back as she glanced at the empty space beside her in bed.
No Everett! Panic set in for a moment until she checked her phone and found a message from him.
Got called into an emergency meeting. Will be back tomorrow morning.
Relieved, she realized he was just caught up at work. She had feared...
Feared that after one night, he wouldn't want her anymore.

After her shower, there was a knock on the hotel room door. Expecting Everett, she found a hotel attendant instead.
"Good morning, Quincy. Mr. Lopez sentto deliver your breakfast." It was from Everett? Her spirits lifted instantly, a shy smile playing on her lips.
"Thank you, that's very kind."
After the attendant left, Quincy pondered over her phone before texting Everett. Got the breakfast, thanks! Are you done with work yet?" His reply cquickly.
Not yet, swamped with work. Finish up and head home, XII Catch up later. Disappointment lingered in Quincy's heart...
But it was okay!
