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 glanced 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. The last call was just to find you because she couldn't reach you." "From now on, don't go meeting Quincy on a whim.

"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 out last night!"
