Chapter 464

“How about now?”

“The indicators are showing a miraculous improvement. His will to live has surged like crazy! If he pulls

through today, I’d say he’s got a fighting chance at life!”

For the first time since the accident, there was a glimmer of hope.

Jonathan blurted out, “Save my son, and I’ll donate a fortune to your hospital immediately!”

“Well do everything we can,” the doctor reassured before tuming back to his duties.

Jonathan clutched his chest, finally breathing a sigh of relief after what felt like an eternity.

He rushed to share the news with his wife.

Amanda came running from the lounge, “Is it true? Are you sure this isn’t just a false rally?

“What are you talking about? Our boy has the luck of the angels!” Jonathan paused for a few seconds

before adding. “The doctor said he started getting better after calling out for Dorothy. Maybe we

should.”

Amanda cut him off, “Maybe we should what? Embrace Dorothy into the Lopez family?”

“Look, Heather is out of the picture now. I’ve been thinking, Dorothy might not have the right

background, but we can lift her up! We could set her up with her business and craft a suitable

backstory. Whomever the Lopez family chooses to uplift can rise high and fast.?

This way they could avoid gossip and fulfill their son’s wishes. Jonathan realized just how important

Dorothy was to his son.

If they continued to black her, who knew what might happen?

But Amanda flatly rejected the idea. “No way, honey! Even if we set our differences aside and accept

Dorothy, there’s the matter of her mother.”

She didn’t finish her sentence, instead carefully watching her husband’s reaction.

“Haven’t you destroyed all the evidence? Dorothy knows nothing. Why not just pin everything on

Heather?”

Jonathan was initially in the dark about these matters. Amanda usually acted first and reported later.

When things got out of hand, she’d call him to clean up the mess.

“Why must it be Dorothy who marries into our family? Every time I see her, it reminds me of the past,

and we will never live in harmony.”

“You! I can’t believe you’d go to such lengths for Heather!”

Had he kept a closer eye on things, they might not be in this mess

Amanda pursed her lips, feeling wronged, “Even setting aside what Heather did for me, look at how

loyally she’s served the Lopez Corporation. She’s been by my side, keeping me company, making me

laugh while you and the bay were off working. Before Dorothy showed up, she never asked me for

anything! Just to help her deal with a romantic rival, how could I refuse?”

Jonathan wanted to continue the lecture, but he realized he hadn’t been around much for her.

Her favoritism towards Heather, treating her like her own daughter, was somewhat understandable.

“I just fear that this will drive a wedge between us and our son!”

“That won’t happen. Everett is our flesh and blood after all. He isn’t heartless.”

Jonathan didn’t respond, but he had a nagging feeling that this wasn’t going to be easily resolved.

“I’ve arranged for Everett’s kids to be brought here. I’m telling you now, no mistreating them. Even if

Dorothy is their mother, they are still Lopez family!”

“Huh?” Amanda creased her face in a frown before she murmured a reluctant agreement, “I won’t. As

long as they behave and don’t keep screaming for Dorothy.“
