Chapter 966

So, starving her for three days or even offering her a fortune wouldn't make Quincy give away the

antidote. Not even if it meant the downfall of the entire family.

Unless she no longer wished to live.

"Saving your family isn't something that falls within our negotiation. I'm under no obligation." He

said.

"True, which is why I propose an additional month of Ms. Sanchez's antidote in exchange," Quincy

bargained.

Everett paused, "And if I refuse?"

"What can I do? It's not like I can just take it by force. At most... I just won't supply the antidote

anymore." There are very few things in this world that could threaten Everett. Quincy had finally

found something that could leverage Everett. She wasn't about to let go; she intended to exploit this

threat to its fullest. "Mr. Lopez, are you willing to lose Ms. Sanchez?"

"If anything happens to Dorothy, I'll make sure you experience a living hell."

"Saving my family would barely require any effort on your part, Mr. Lopez. The money is trivial to

you, and in return, you get an additional month's supply of the antidote. It's a good deal."

Quincy's logic in her words was clear, signaling her confidence in winning.

After all, the all-powerful and high-flying Everett happened to be an infatuated man. If he could bear

to lose Dorothy, then what truly could threaten him?

Sure enough, after a few seconds of silence, Everett spoke, "How much?"

"I'll have my father contact you."

As Quincy finished speaking, Everett was ready to hang up. He didn't want to hear that voice for

one more second.

However, Quincy suddenly stopped him and added, "One more thing! You might want to consider

hiring some bodyguards for my protection, Mr. Lopez. After all... if an accident were to happen to

me, if I were hit by a car, suffered amnesia, or... encountered any life-threatening danger, then it

wouldn't just be my loss. My death would be insignificant, but Ms. Sanchez would have no one to

save her."

Quincy was mainly worried that her words might have angered her father, leading him to take action

against her. Although he had agreed to cut ties over money, she knew her father wouldn't easily let

go of a pawn he had nurtured for years.

She couldn't predict his next move, but with Everett's men protecting her, she felt somewhat safer.

...

Jeffrey had everything arranged at their place before driving back to pick up his wife and daughter.

Dorothy was in the back of the van with their twins, while Karen sat in the front, holding her

daughter.

At a red light, Jeffrey instinctively glanced at the rear-view mirror and saw Langston holding

Felicity's little hand!

Alarm bells rang in his head as he coughed lightly, "Well, Langston, remember that Felicity is going

to be your little sister from now on. You have to protect her like a real brother, and never let any jerk

take advantage of her!"

Dorothy, unaware of their previous conversation, thought it was just a joke and didn't pay much

attention.

But Karen knew exactly what was going on. Jeffrey was overreacting again!

Ever since Arthur cursed in the hospital that Jeffrey's daughter would be mistreated and abandoned

by men, and Karen indeed gave birth to a daughter, he had become overly protective.

He didn't even trust Langston around her.

"Mr. Turner, don't worry! I'll definitely protect my sister!" Langston said.

"Just remember, you're Felicity's brother for life, her real brother!"
