No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 350



Herschel looked at me with those gentle, fatherly eyes - the kind that said, "In my heart, you'll always be my little girl. But I've got to tell you, being a stickler might work at your job, but it's not doing you any favors in your personal life."

"Felicia, sometimes it's better to be a little clueless. It can make life happier, especially outside of work. Not everything needs to be crystal clear, you know?" He advised me, sounding every bit the concerned dad.

Seeing his worrisome gaze, thinking of his illness, I still had my own persistence, but I nodded in agreement anyway.

"No, you definitely have something on your mind," I could tell he was holding back.
