StarNovel"Alright, then you're busy; I won't disturb you anymore." Quincy tried her best to maintain a demeanor that was both ladylike and considerate for Everett to see.
It was only after she knew he wouldn't be coming back that she got dressed, sat down, and finished her breakfast.
It was right then that Ronin called her.

"No, he went off to work early this morning." "Oh... So, you guys..." Quincy coughed lightly and looked down, feeling a bit shy to say it out loud, "I'm his woman now." "That's fantastic!" Ronin sounded relieved and much more cheerful, "I hope you give it your all, and soon there's a new member of the Lopez family on the way! With that, we won't have to walk on eggshells in the business world anymore!" Linking up with Everett was like a dream ctrue for many! "I hope to get pregnant soon, too." On this matter, Quincy and her father were on the spage.
Having a child would solve many problems! "By the way, I've been meaning to ask, now that you and Everett are trying for a baby, your condition won't affect it, right? Even though the Lopez family is wealthy, if the child has any issues, that... would be a worry." Even though Ronin wasn't too fond of his daughter, she was still his child! If she had a child that was in any way impaired, the Lopez family would definitely have their opinions.
Ronin was also unclear about the extent of his daughter's condition.
"Don't worry, I've thought about this! I plan to cure Everett of half the poison first, to weaken its effect. After I get pregnant, I'll make sure to have extra check-ups to ensure there's nothing wrong with baby." "Can't you cure him completely now? I understood your concerns when Dorothy was around, but now that you two are... I don't see the need for the poison. If Everett finds out, it might even affect your relationship." "I know what I'm doing; you don't need to worry." Ronin sighed, "Alright, I'm just trying to look out for you, but if you insist! Let's drop it." "You better pay more attention to Simeon! After I marry Everett, I can't always be cleaning up his messes! Everett is already swamped with work, and as his wife, I can't keep adding to his troubles." "You're not even married yet, and you're talking like this?" Quincy glanced at the love bites on her arm from the night before, a smirk playing on her lips.
"Marrying him is just a matter of time, isn't it?m not like Dorothy, always unacknowledged by the Lopez family! Jonathan has wantedto marry his son for the longest tand now that Everett and I are together, no one can stand in our way." "That would be for the best! I do hope you marry Everett."
"Then do as I say, and helpmaintain a good image! Whichprestigious family doesn't like a N match of equals, especially a sensible one? The Lopez family is not exception." After a few more exchanges with her father, Quincy hung up.

She got up, intending to leave the hotel and head back to her place to wait for Everett's call. But as she was about to walk out the door, something caught her eye! It was...
Everett's jacket from the previous night.
Quincy hurried over to pick it up.
Burying her nose in it, she could m almost feel as though Everett was right there with her... X
