Dorothy, though finding it hard to relax, made an effort to ease into the moment, unwilling to push Everett away or shrink back. She knew deep down that Everett didn't want to hurt her.

But with Abigail and Langston still out of the loop, Everett didn't dare to overstep, letting her go after only half an hour. Yet, neither of them moved, still holding each other, listening to the beat of each other's hearts.

After a while, Everett broke the silence.

"Should we take a shower?" "I can manage on my own." He lifted his hand, his thumb gently grazing her porcelain-like cheek, "Is this because I didn't exhaust you?" With a playful huff, Dorothy pushed him slightly, a smile teasing her lips, "Be careful, or I might snap a photo of you like this and leak it to thepany intr! That'll certainly shatter your CEO image." Mention Everett in public, and you'd hear about his reserved, almost aloof demeanor, sparing words as if each one cost him. Yet here he was, all his words saved for moments like these.

"Go ahead, if you ever miss me, you can open it up and take a look." Dorothy paused, then slowly, her hand found its way to his shoulder, "Everett, I don't need a photo, I want the real thing." "Alright, your wish is mymand." "When Quincy cto me, she mentioned something else." Instantly, Everett's brows furrowed, his heart racing.

He knew Dorothy's unusual approach meant she had heard something unsettling! Otherwise, with her stubborn nature, she wouldn't have sought him out so willingly...

"What did she say?" "She mentioned youmissioned her to treat my illness, and after much research, she finally developed a medicine that could cure mepletely." Everett knew! That was the ultimate cure! "Yes, that's true," he confirmed, looking into Dorothy's eyes, "Did she give it to you?" "She did." "Have you taken it?" Dorothy's eyes twinkled with mischief, "What do you think?" Chapter 1144 1 "Why can't I joke? Is there something else about the medicine? Why are you so anxious?" Everett frowned, "Quincy's medicine can cure you! You won't have to suffer and be hospitalized anymore!" Of course, he was worried! Once everything settled, Dorothy could finally step away from all this.

Chapter 1144 2 "Well..." Everett hesitated, unsure if she had taken the cure, and stumbled over his words.

"Look atand tell me." Dorothy cupped his face, forcing their gazes to lock, allowing no room for doubt.

"In the beginning, yes." "And after? Did you develop feelings for her? Were you planning to break up with me?" Everett pursed his lips, about to nod reluctantly when Dorothy gently slapped his cheek. Chapter 1144 3 "I never intended to marry her from the start."
