No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

"Fanny..."

Before I could even get a word in, she asked, "Do you think I have any chance catching up with Yates now?"

Not that she could even if she wanted to. She was benched, but not free to leave. She was under investigation, waiting for the medical board to come to a verdict.

"Stop overthinking, Haley's just like a cornered dog, probably got her wires crossed," Fanny paused before adding, "I think it's necessary to have her undergo a psych evaluation." But her words didn't bring a smile to my face. Fanny knew what was on my mind and flicked my forehead, "Stop worrying, it's not about you."

How could it not be?

Haley targeting Fanny was clearly because of me. Besides, it was me who called Fanny for Haley's surgery.

If it wasn't for me, she probably wouldn't have even considered performing the surgery on Haley.

"Related or not, I have to face her. I'll go talk to her," I said, heading towards Haley.

Fanny grabbed my arm, "Going to her now would just make her think we're scared. She won't have anything nice to say and might just make outrageous demands."

"Let her ask. I want to see how big of an appetite she has," I said, feeling the fire rising within me.

I realized Haley was a real viper. Saved her life, and she turned around to bite.
