"I'm not going!" Quincy could tell that the man was a trouble. There was no way she was going anywhere with him. She tried to grab her phone to call for help, but Kevin caught her attempt in a heartbeat. He chuckled lowly, and then, with a smile plastered on his face, forcefully snatched her phone away.
"You two, get Miss Quincy into the car." He ordered.

Quincy tried to make a run for it, but with only Kevin in front of her and the flight attendants nowhere in sight, she didn't even have a chance to cry for help.
"Letgo! Don't touch me! Help!" Her shouts went unheeded as two men dragged her out of the plane's cabin.
In desperation, Quincy played her trump card, "Do you know who I am? I'm Everett, the CEO of the Lopez Corporation's fiancée! Lay a finger on me, and you'll pay!" At that, the men restraining her hesitated.
Thinking the mention of Everett would help, she immediately said, "Call him now if you don't believe me!" At this, Kevin just smiled, "Don't worry, Miss Quincy. I'll relay your message to Mr. Lopez." "Aren't you afraid of crossing the Lopez family?" "Of course. Miss Quincy, please." Kevin's smile never wavered as he watched Quincy being led away. Only then did he pull out his phone to report back to Mr. Lopez.
"Mr. Lopez, I've got her under control." "Alright, I'll head over once I'm done here." Everett said.
Dorothy opened her eyes to find Everett by her bedside. She tried to move her hand and noticed an IV drip attached to it.

Dorothy shook her head with a smile, "I'm fine! Just needed a bit of sleep and I feel much better now." "Then you should call Karen back. She's been trying to reach you, and Jeffrey said she's worried." "Okay." Dorothy picked up her phone, seeing the missed calls warmed her heart.
There ere still a lot of people in this world who cared about her. It wasn't just Everett who cared; Abigail, Langston, and Karen were there too. But when she called back, no one picked up at first.
Finally, Jeffrey answered.
"Karen might be having the baby early. We've rushed her to the hospital, and her phone's with me." Hearing this, Dorothy immediately responded, "I'm coming right now!" She put away the phone and looked at Everett, "Karen's in the hospital. Jeffrey said she might be having the baby early. I need to be there!" "What?" Everett's heart sank, but considering Dorothy's condition, which could cause her to faint at any moment, he hesitated to let her go, "Stay at the Bay Residence for now. I'll check on her." "No, takewith you! I'll be worried sick if I stay. If I'm with you, I can know what's happening as soon as possible!" Dorothy considered Karen a sister. How could she just wait at the Bay Residence knowing her friend was in trouble? "What about your health?" he asked.
"I promise be fine! Just letgo with you. Whatever treatment I need afterward, I'll follow your instructions to the letter, okay?" Dorothy was so anxious; she wished she could teleport to the hospital. S
