Bye-Bye Jerk, Hello Mr. Right by Rosie Steppe

Chapter 958

This question-“Willing?“–kept echoing in Lena’s mind.

It haunted her so much that she spent yet another sleepless night.

Her answer was clear: she couldn’t. She knew Aaron had made his move and wouldn’t give up easily. But she simply couldn’t agree. And if she didn’t say yes, there was nothing he could do about it.

Besides, she truly saw him as her younger uncle–there was no way she could see him as a boyfriend.

“Dr. Lane, not sleeping well lately?” the hospital director asked as soon as he saw her. One glance, and he could tell she looked exhausted.

“A bit of insomnia,” Lena admitted honestly.

“Is it because you don’t have a boyfriend? Want me to introduce you to a few?” The director, ever so responsible, even took it upon himself to worry about her personal life.

Lena glanced at the sparse hair on his head and chuckled. “Director, I’ll find someone myself. No need for you to concern yourself.”

Aaron hadn’t gotten an answer from her, nor had he pursued her aggressively. After all, he’d waited so many years already–he wasn’t in a rush.

Her refusal wasn’t because she disliked him. It was just that her feelings for him hadn’t yet shifted from familial affection to romantic love.
