Chapter 951


    Now, Dorothy finally understood the truth of herck of jealousy in the past. That was simply


    because Everett never let other women get close enough for her to feel threatened.


    Had it been any other time, Everett would have catered to her every whim without question. But


    today, he hesitated with his fork in hand, pulling at his lips slightly, "Babe, the most important thing is


    getting you healthy."

    "So, is she the only doctor that can help?"


    "As of now, yes."


    Dorothy opened her mouth to argue but swallowed her words instead, muttering a resigned, "Oh."


    Everett nced at her, his brows knitting together as if sensing her unrest, "What''s up? Did Quincy


    say something to you?"


    "No! She hasn''t reached out. Thest call was just to find you because she couldn''t reach you."


    "From now on, don''t go meeting Quincy on a whim. If she calls, don''t pick up. Just let me know,


    okay?"


    Dorothy felt something was off with his instructions.


    "Why? It seems like... you don''t like me talking to Dr. Quincy?"


    "Dorothy." Everett''s tone suddenly became serious, "Do you trust me?"


    After a moment''s hesitation, she nodded, "Yes, I''ve said I would."


    "Then listen to me. That''s all I need you to do."


    Despite having myriad of questions in her heart, Dorothy nodded in agreement. She had promised


    to learn to trust him, to rely on him, and she intended to keep that promise.


    ...


    After breakfast, Dorothy nned to visit Karen and her newborn at the hospital.


    Abigail and Langston wanted toe along, but she refused.


    "Aunt Karen just had surgery and needs to recover. The baby needs quiet, too. We''ll visit them


    when Aunt Karen is better, okay?"


    Abigail seemed ready to argue, but Langston agreed first, so she reluctantly nodded in assent.


    Once in the car, Everett spoke softly, "You could spend more time with Karen at the hospital. I''ve got


    some stuff to handle with Jeffrey."


    "Okay." Dorothy had no clue what they were up to, and she didn''t pry, assuming it was business-


    rted.


    Being a CEO, Everett couldn''t possibly spend all his time by her side.


    Arriving at the hospital, Dorothy knocked and waited for Karen''s voice before entering.


    "Dorothy!" Karen almost burst into tears upon seeing her, "The baby cried so muchst night. I feel


    like breaking down!"


    Dorothy chuckled, "Already overwhelmed by motherhood?"


    "I thought she''d be as easy as Abigail and Langston, but she''s so fussy, and I... I can''t bear to hand


    her off to the nanny..."


    Karen looked exhausted with the dark circles under her eyes.


    Understanding the new mom''s struggles, Dorothy approached and gently lifted the baby from the


    crib, "See? She''s quite calm now."


    "That''s because she cried herself outst night!"


    "Karen, how about I stay with you tonight? You need to rest properly after giving birth, or you''ll never


    recover."


    Karen sighed, "I know I should let the nanny take her so I can have some peace, but... the moment I


    close my eyes, I feel uneasy, like something precious is out of my hands. I just can''t rx!"


    Dorothy smiled, "Wee to motherhood, huh?"
