No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

"Who was knocking at the door just now?" Fanny probably sensed my mood wasn't great and decided to change the subject.

"Haley, the one who stopped me last time wanting to collaborate. She wanted to talk again, but I didn't entertain it," I said as I pulled back the curtains, only to see it had started to rain outside.

"That woman, her child will be discharged from the hospital in a month. The kid is doing well, but she hasn't visited even once," Fanny mentioned the prematurely born child.

I remembered the last time I saw the kid, "That woman only cares about money. If Conrad decides to take the child now, she'd definitely cling to him."

"What does she want to collaborate with you for?" Fanny suddenly asked.

"I don't know, but it's definitely nothing good. That kind of woman brings trouble, and I'm clear-headed about that," I said firmly.

Fanny got out of bed, "Right, best to avoid trouble. But knowing her, she won't give up just because you've turned her down once or twice."

Laughing it off, she went to the bathroom, and I decided to order breakfast online.

After Fanny left, I headed over to the Wagner's.

Conrad, Dustin, and Jacqueline were there.
