Dorothy didn’t hesitate for a second before hanging up and blocking the number.
She saw no reason to keep in touch with someone who had betrayed her
Whether he wanted to explain or shirk responsibility she had no interest in hearing it
She hailed a cab and rushed to the address on her phene, only to discover that it was the privatehospital owned by the wealthy Lopez family. The prospect of even getting through the front gate to seeEverett was hard, let alone actually seeing him
As Dorothy saw a car rolling out of the driveway, she quickly maneuvered her wheelcha to block itspath, forcing the driver to slam on the brakes just shy of hitting her.
“Who are you?” asked the man stepping out of the vehicle, a doctor by the looks of his white coat. Hewas visibly shocked to see Dorothy blocking his way.
“I need to see Everett Can you get me in?” she asked desperately.
“You want to see Mr. Lopez?” He raised an eyebrow, sizing up Dorothy skeptically before flaily denyingher request. “I can’t help you. This is a private hospital. Only Mr. Lopez himself can authorize your entry
As he moved to leave. Dorothy stubbornly positiered her wheelchair in front of the car, signaling shewouldn’t budge.
The doctor sighed, getting out of the car again. Look, I’m bound by regulations. Theres nothing I cando”
“Then can you at least tell me how Everett is doing?s he… awake?”
“I can’t disclose the! he exclaimed, clearly anxious about revealing any information to a stranger whocould potentially cause trouble for the Lopez family.
Dorothy quickly explained “Tim Everetts… ewle. He was injured trying to sove me! You don’t have to letme in: I just want to know how he’is‘
Ex–wife? The doctor had never heard about their young master being married before. ‘Miss, are youmaking things up? Mr. Lopez’s only got a girlfriend named Heather, Never heard of any ex–wife.”
Dorothy knew that the Lopez family and the circle wouldn’t be aware of her, Amanda would never havementioned her to anyone. For a prestigious family like the Loperes, marrying a commoner would begossip fudde
She had always been aware of the vast gulf between herself and Everett, it was never just a simplematter of a CFO and his assistant. “Just go, please. Dont make this harder for me” the doctor pleaded
“Can you at least tell me if he’s alive? Dorothy persisted, desperate for any information.
She had chased him all the way here without thinking of the outcomes, Even if the Lopez familydecided to chase her off, she wouldn’t leave = not without trying.
“Of course Mr. Lopez is alive!” he blurted out before covering his mouth in shock. “I didn’t sayanything!”
Knowing that Everett was still alive provided Dorothy with a small sense of relief.
She didn’t mean to cause trouble for the doctor “Don’t worry I won’t tell anyone. It’s not like we knoweach other.”
Dorothy moved her wheelchair aside, watching as his car drove all, a faint smile finally gracing herface.
He was alive. That was all that mattered.
Suddenly, Dorothy heard someone calling with unmistakable hosty.
