"Langston could tell. Are you saying I taught him that?" Even the kid had caught on to Kenneth's ulterior motive! Dorothy knew she could not outtalk Everett with his businessman's silver tongue, so she simply closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
Luckily, Kenneth only called once.
Back at the Lopez Private Hospital, Quincy was already in place, just waiting for Everett to return.
She arranged a battery of tests, fearing any missed detail could pose a hidden threat.
Perhaps because Quincy was aware of Everett's germophobia, she had another male doctor assist with any examinations that required physical contact.
As the test results came in one by one, all looking good, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Lopez, you've got the constitution of an ox! I won't lie. I was worried sick while you were out of the country." After all, a through-and-through wound was no joke. Forget infection at the wound site; even a tiny blood clot could spell disaster.

Only direct kins can visit now." Dorothy was stunned. "What?" This was rather typical of Everett! Had he been plotting this while standing at the cemetery gate that day? "Dorothy, Everett better not overstep. I've stopped competing with him. Does he really need to drive the point home? Am I not even allowed to be
your friend?" Dorothy could tell Kenneth was genuinely angry and rushed to soothe him. s'ah th FindNovil.n't website on Gøøgle to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. The content is on Popsnovel.com! Read the latest chapter there!

"Kenneth, he's just a bit jealous, alright? Don't take it to heart. I'll talk to him when I get back. And about the cemetery, if it really comes to it, I'l have a word with the manager, claim you're direct kin to my mother ve don't want to put you in a tough spot, but he's really crossing the line! It's totally justified that you don't want him visiting your mother's grave. No one could argue with that! He's just clueless, yet he has the nerve to seal off the cemetery."
