"It's my business."

"But the Lopez family has been knocking on our door, wanting to tie the knot with me three times over. So, whether you've got someone in your heart or not, it's kinda my business too, don't you think?" Everett set down his coffee mug, making it clear to Quincy that it was indeed empty.

With a feigned ignorance, he tugged at his lip and looked up, "I never admitted to anything."

"Just because you didn't admit it, doesn't mean it doesn't affect me! Now that the Lopez family wants to marry me off, to forge an alliance with the Caldwells, it's the talk of the town! If you now say you don't want me, have you thought about what that does to my reputation?"

Everett chuckled, "What reputation? The one where you're known for being a poisoner?"

Quincy's face turned pale.

She hadn't expected Everett to bring that up.

But it was normal for him to mention it. After all, even though he was over Dorothy now, the fact remained that he knew about the poisoning! It's just that he didn't care about the victim anymore. "What if I marry you and then one day you decide to poison me?"

"I'm not as bad as you think!" Quincy furrowed her brows, trying to explain, "I was desperate! In that situation, if I couldn't take control of my own destiny, I would've been used as a pawn by the Caldwells!" Quincy tried her best to clarify her intentions.

But she forgot that she wasn't this defensive when she had made those harsh statements before.
