Almost reflexively, Everett reached out and grabbed her wrist, holding on tightly.
Despite the bandages around his hand quickly staining with blood from his grip, he refused to let go.

Everett's explanation was dry and blunt.
But he had to say it.
He was genuinely afraid that Dorothy, in a moment of impulsion, would leave the hospital and go straight to Kenneth Nelson, or some other man. Or perhaps she'd end up in a bar, drowning herself in liquor, and then leaving with some random guy.

Mad beyond anything Dorothy's current state could provoke.

"None of it."
