No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 445

"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.

Fanny knew how I get, "Your call, but you should know why she's doing this. Don't act rashly."

"And you?" I asked her.

"I'll go to the dean's office and explain what happened."

I swallowed down the burning anger, "We'll catch up later."

"Keep your cool. Don't do anything drastic. Otherwise, we'll be in the wrong. And this might just be Haley's plan, to get you riled up and make you do something to her," Fanny analyzed.

He was indeed being surprisingly sweet.

Seeing him hesitate, I walked over. He immediately tried to sidestep, looking like he was ready to bolt.

"Freeze. Take one step, and I'm calling Dustin, telling him you're harassing me again," I threatened, making Jimmy glare at me.

"You... you just spout nonsense," he finally broke, desperation in his voice.

I laughed mockingly, "Aren't I just learning from the best?"

Jimmy looked at me warily, even putting up his hands defensively as I stepped closer.

His reaction made me laugh. He wasn't afraid of me, but of Dustin.

And that was exactly what puzzled me. So, I motioned him closer, "Come on, spill. What did Dustin do to turn you from a wild pup into a lapdog?"
