"It's in God's hands now," is something people say when they're at their most helpless.
But for Jeffrey, there wasn't much else to say.
After a moment of silence, Dorothy whispered, "I'm sorry... I should have taken better care of her." Jeffrey was taken aback, "What are you talking about? If Everett heard that, he'd have my head! I'm not blaming you!" "I know you and Karen aren't blaming me, but... I just can't shake the feeling of guilt." She couldn't help but think if she had reacted just a bit faster, stepped in front of that kid, maybe this whole mess could've been avoided.

Besides, Jeffrey wouldn't dare! Not just because of Everett, but also for Karen's sake, he couldn't possibly blher best friend. "I just hope Karen will be okay, and the baby too." "I have a good feeling they will be," Jeffrey managed a smile, though it was clear it was forced.
After seeing Everett, Quincy was in a dilemma.
How could she quickly confirm whether she was pregnant...
After all, only with that assurance could she stop using poison to control Everett.
She didn't really want to.
Before, it was Dorothy, and whether she lived or died didn't affect Quincy's life directly.
But Everett was different. He was the man she was going to marry, the future father of her children. If be died young because of the poison, what would she do? Left with no choice, Quincy went to the hospital again to seek help from her friend.
Seeing Quincy, her friend couldn't help but smile, "You're glowing! Are you... starting to try for a baby?" "Yeah," Quincy nodded, relieved there was no one else in the examination room, "How soon can I find out if I'm pregnant?" "At the earliest, ten days to two weeks. Any sooner and the embryo wouldn't have implanted yet." "Isn't there a faster way? We've... done it several times, without taking any precautions." As Quincy blushed, her friend walked over and patted her shoulder.

Quincy felt cornered and shared Everett's situation, but n, but she emitted the part about poisoning him. She only mentioned that the Lopez family wasn't keen on havinher marry into their family. If she wasn't pregnant, the Lopez family might not want her anymore!
"In this day and age, still relying on having a child to secure your m position? her friend said then M immediately understood, "Well, given how desirable the other party is, in terms of wealth, power, and books, I guess they do have their standards." "Exactly! So, is there...?" "I mean, there's a way, but take it with a grain of salt." "What is it?" Quincy urged.
"Even if you're not pregnant, you could fake it! Getting a fake om pregnancy repoft for you wouldn't be hard." RULE #1 choose married women They have reason to keep things secret, as do you.
