The CEO’s Hidden Love Midnight Temptations and Deep Desires

Dorothy suddenly felt her right eye twitch uncontrollably.

Her expression even began to quiver slightly.

"Medicine?"

"Yes."

Quincy pulled out a small bottle from her purse.

The bottle was tiny, and it was only half full of pills.

"Do you really expect me to believe this?"

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Mr. Lopez if it's the real deal."

Dorothy didn't take it, leaning back and giving Quincy a cold stare, "He and I are over, I can't exactly take his word for it anymore."

"Don't worry, Ms. Sanchez! I chose this café because it's under constant surveillance! If you take this medicine and something happens to you, wouldn't that make me a murderer? I'm not foolish enough to make such a blatant move against you." She chuckled, continuing, "Besides, you're not worth the risk of throwing my life away! I'm not Heather Garcia, foolish and brainless."

"Even after Everett broke up with me, you're still willing to concoct medicine to cure my illness. I can hardly believe you're doing this out of the goodness of your heart."

Once, Dorothy might have believed Quincy without a second thought, but not anymore.

"There's no special reason. If I had to give one, maybe it's because I hope you'll stop being sick all the time. It's a hassle if you keep getting sick and Mr. Lopez's attention is partially still on you."

п

"Regardless of everything, you're still

Abigail and Langston's mother. Mr.

Lopez will always care about you to some extent! Imagine, if you're constantly in the hospital, what's Mr. Lopez supposed to do?" Quincy spread her hands, "If he visits,, his fiancée, would be upset! Who wants that kind of drama? But if he doesn't visit, people will criticize him for being heartless, and I definitely don't want that." Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Her logic was sound.

Dorothy took the bottle, examining it closely, "If I take this, I'll get completely better?"

"It won't cure everything, but at least you won't have any more sudden dizzy spells or hallucinations."

Dorothy's fingers trembled before

she looked down and forced a smile,

"Oh, well, that's great then! Dr. Quincy, your medical expertise is truly impressive. If you used it for the right reasons, I believe you could be a great doctor."

Quincy scoffed, "You don't need to worry about that! And don't expect an invite to Mr. Lopez's and my wedding hope you'll also stop

clinging to him. Just like when net

asked you to drop the lawsuit before. I will defend my marriage and not let anyone ruin it. You've made your choice, so no turning back."

"Yeah, your wedding is definitely not my place to be, and I don't want to be there."

After saying that, Dorothy stood up, tucking the bottle of medicine into her purse, "Thank you, for the medicine."

"No need to thank me." Quincy didn't make any move to see her out, not even standing up, "Remember, if you start feeling unwell, take the medicine right away! Don't delay, it'll only make things worse for you.

"I know."

Dorothy nodded indifferently, then turned to leave.

Just as she was about to reach the door, Quincy suddenly called out to her-

"Ms. Sanchez!"

"What now?"

"I used to be so envious of you, which is why I tried so hard to persuade you and Mr. Lopez to work things out. But since you chose a path that inevitably sacrificed Mr. Lopez, you no longer have any right to blame me for anything."
