No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 843

I glanced at the man beside me. He was awake too, looking at me with a gentle smile.

"Dr. Willis, take a few days off and you forget everything, huh?" I teased, hinting that as an obstetrician, he should remember the basics.

Fanny burst into laughter from the other end. "Licia, your mind is in the gutter! I only mentioned 'a tender embrace,' and you took it somewhere else."

I just rolled my eyes.

"So, how are you? Any injuries?" I asked, concerned.

Even though Ernest assured me that Fanny hadn't been harmed in the slightest, I needed to hear it from her.

"Didn't Ernest tell you already? Or did you not give him a chance before you pounced?" Fanny chuckled, knowing me all too well.

Between a man and my best friend, I'd always choose the latter.

"I want to hear it from you," I insisted, realizing only then that she hadn't called me on video.

"Fine, I'll video call you. I was cautious to avoid a live show of something I shouldn't see," Fanny joked.

"Cut it out, just call me. I need to see you," I said before hanging up to wait for her video call.

Ernest asked if I wanted some water and went to get it when I nodded. Just then, Fanny's video call came through.
