Chapter 937
"Did Everett send you to bring me here?" After Quincy spoke, she watched Kevin closely. And asshe expected, she noticed the subtle shift in his expression.
She knew she had guessed right.
"Why would he do that?" she asked.
"Miss Quincy, even if you ask, I can't say. You might as well save your energy."
Quincy frowned, "I need to speak with him!"
"You'll have to wait."
After all, without instructions, Kevin wouldn't take the initiative to connect Quincy with Mr. Lopez.
Quincy had a hunch about Everett's sudden movements. But then she thought...
Shouldn't she be the one in control? So, what was she afraid of?
"Fine! I'll just wait for Mr. Lopez then."
...
Time ticked by slowly in the hospital.
Jeffrey was practically glued to the operating room’s door.
If it weren't for the doctor saying his presence might stress out the mother-to-be and potentially leadto complications, he would've barged in there by now.
"The backup doctors have arrived; everything will be fine." Everett saw his state and forcefullypulled Jeffrey back to his seat.
"But I can't see Karen, and it's like something's constantly stirring in my chest, making it impossibleto calm down!" Jeffrey gripped Everett's hand, his palm sweaty. "You can't understand how I feel!"he exclaimed.
"I can empathize." Everett said. He tried to feel Jeffrey’s heart. If Dorothy were in that delivery room,his reaction would likely be even more intense than Jeffrey's.
"Can we ask the doctor? If Jeffrey can't go in, how about me?" Dorothy was also anxious. She knewKaren, usually chatty and seemingly fearless, was actually quite timid. And in such situations,anyone would be scared.
"You can't either." Everett didn't even ask; he just gave her the answer.
Dorothy frowned, "I just want to check on her!"
"Right now, we do what the doctor says. Not causing trouble is the best help for Karen." Everettclaimed.
"But..."
"You promised you'd listen to me before we came."
Dorothy bit her lips. She was suddenly at a loss for words.novelbin
Luckily, Jeffrey managed to keep his mind clear at the crucial moment. He calmed himself down andsaid to Dorothy, "You don't have to worry, Dorothy. Everett has brought in the best doctors. Karenwill be fine."
"Should we inform Karen's parents now?" Dorothy felt it wasn't right to keep Karen's parents in thedark about such matters. Good or bad, they deserved to know the result.
"I've already called them. Her parents should be here soon." Jeffrey wasn't scared; he just felt guilty.He had promised Derek and Serena that he'd take good care of her, and yet, during the pregnancy,there had still been complications.
"That's good." Dorothy glanced at Everett unintentionally after finishing saying.
He was also looking at her with a deepened gaze, "Feeling unwell?"
She shook her head, "I'm fine, really! Can I please stay?"
"As long as you promise not to overdo it and tell me immediately if you feel unwell, then you canstay."
Even though Karen's situation was urgent, Dorothy's well-being was his top priority.
"I'm not being stubborn, I really—"
Dorothy couldn't finish her sentence as a sudden intense pain shot through her head!
