No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 775

She didn't just grab his thigh; kneeling on the ground, her face ended up right in front of his most sensitive area.

The mortifying awkwardness of the situation made Fanny's face flush red, more so than the time they'd accidentally encountered each other in the bathroom, both stark naked.

As Fanny jerked back as if she'd touched a live wire, she was swiftly scooped up into Sinclair's arms.

Without a word, Sinclair strode off with her in his arms, moving quickly away from the scene.

When Fanny arrived at the hospital, she saw her parents and Yates waiting anxiously.

"Fanny, are you okay? Did you get hurt anywhere?"

"Sinclair, is Fanny alright?"

Her parents were visibly worried, their voices full of concern.

"I don't think there's anything serious, but just to be safe, we should have a thorough check-up," Sinclair suggested, receiving nods of agreement from Fanny's parents.

Yates chimed in as well, "Fanny, are you hurt?"

Looking at the man she loved, Fanny felt a lump in her throat and shook her head.

"What about your leg?" Yates asked, noticing something everyone else had overlooked.

Only then did Fanny realize why Yates was asking—she was still being carried.

"No, it's just that my leg's gone numb," Fanny tried to wriggle free, but Sinclair's grip only tightened.

Without saying a word, Sinclair carried Fanny towards the examination room, with Yates following closely behind. "Mr. Anderson, let me take Fanny."

Sinclair didn't even glance at him, carrying Fanny into the examination room, and then stepping back out.

"Thank you for bringing Fanny back," Yates said to Sinclair once more.

She was fine this time, but what about next time?

If Yates had been away overseas, it would be one thing. But he was back, supposed to be by her side, yet work had pulled him away, leaving her unprotected in a dangerous moment.

Earlier, he could still muster a thank you to Sinclair, but now, facing Fanny's comforting smile, he couldn't even bring himself to say "I'm sorry."

Fanny knew Yates' eyes conveyed everything, and with her parents present, there wasn’t much they could openly discuss.

So she simply said, "Mom, Dad, you should head home and catch some rest."

Joie playfully scolded her, "Do you think your parents are heartless? How could we sleep after something like this?"

"I'm fine now, really. If you don't rest, I will; I'm exhausted and need to sleep," Fanny kissed her parents on the cheek. "Let Uncle George drive you back."

She looked around, noticing someone missing, "Where's Uncle George?"
