GoodRead"What do you think?" The man raised an eyebrow, his gaze fixed on her. Although there was no anger in his eyes, Quincy felt an overwhelming pressure that made her feel somewhat guilty.
"Who knows what you're talking about! Move aside! Or I'm calling the cops." With that, Quincy tried to leave.
But the man simply stretched out his hand, barely exerting any effort, and easily blocked her way.

"What poison, what antidote, are you crazy?! What do I have to do with you? Keep this up, and I'II—" "I'll call the police," the man interjected calmly. "Go ahead, call them. Then when they ask why I'm stopping you, I'll tell them you poisoned Dorothy, intending tomit murder." "Let's see who walks out of the police station then." Quincy realized his intention was all about Dorothy.
He must have confirmed that she was the one who poisoned Dorothy. Denying it further would be futile! All she wanted was to get away from this man and go back to making soup for Everett.
"What do you want? Just spit it out." "The antidote." The man extended his hand.
Quincy scoffed. "What's in it forif I give you the antidote? Even if you take Dorothy to the hospital right now, the doctors won't detect the poison I used! You have no evidence to prove anything." The man raised an eyebrow, pondering for a moment before speaking, "What do you want in return?" "I want Dorothy to disappear from Everett's life forever." To Quincy, Dorothy was no longer a rival in love.
She hadn't readily provided the antidote not just because she wanted to marry Everett.
Once she becthe recognized Mrs. Lopez of the Lopez family, 1 Dorothy would pose not all, and out.
she could easily kick "You wantto take Dorothy away?" "Yes!" Quincy didn't hesitate and nodded. "Didn't you say you liked Dorothy? Perfect, consider it a favor! I'll give you the antidote, and you can use it to keep Dorothy away from Everett!" She had it all planned out.

She would claim she sold the medicine to this man, and he was the one who poiso absolving herself of any responsibility! The man seemed quite intrigued by her proposal.
His eyes narrowed slightly.
"This poison... has such uses?" "Of course! With this in hand, unless Dorothy wishes to risk her life, she'll have to do as you say.' Though Quincy no longer saw Dorothy as a significant threat, she and Everett had a past. There was a child between them, an unbreakable bond.
Managing Everett alone was already a handful for her; she had no tto worry about Dorothy. Now that someone willingly offered to help, why wouldn't she be pleased? mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fiflO&1 mmMwWLlilofiflo&1 mmMwWLliI0fifl0&1 mmMwWLlilOfiflO&1
