No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 852

I was chuckling to myself when Fanny sat across from me, watching patiently. When I finally stopped, she quipped, “Had your laugh? Now, can you help me out?"

Fanny was usually the type to have everything figured out, so her coming to me for advice meant she must be out of options.

"First things first, is there any chance with Yates?" I asked, trying to gauge where her heart was at.

Fanny picked up an apple from the table, slicing it methodically. "What do you think?" she replied.

Fanny was not one to go back on her decisions or change her mind easily. The day she and Yates decided to part ways, it was a done deal. But now, Yates seemed to have realized he couldn't live without her and was trying to win her back.

And then there was Sinclair, her childhood friend, stepping back into the picture. "If you want to make sure Yates doesn't get the wrong idea, why not move in with your uncle for a bit?" I suggested.

Fanny wasn't surprised. "And the reasoning?"

"Yates is working at the same hospital now, doing some research project. He's trying to be close to you, hoping to patch things up. It's not just the work during the day; there are those evenings too."

"Oh, and see if you can find out where he's staying. I bet it's somewhere nearby."

Fanny finished slicing the apple and handed me a piece. "Good advice deserves a reward."
