No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 327

"Alright, lie back and let me take a listen," said Yates as he slipped the stethoscope from around his neck.

We all watched anxiously from the sidelines. Ernest, usually as steadfast as a mountain, looked visibly tense.

It was just a check-up, not a surgery.

I was once again struck by Ernest's deep affection for Susie. I reached out and took his hand. He turned his head to look at me, and I gave him a reassuring nod.

But Susie didn't move, just stared at Yates as if she was spellbound.

Seeing this, Fanny stepped closer, bending slightly, "Just lie down and let Dr. Yates check your heartbeat. It won't hurt.'

Susie had already warmed up to Fanny at first sight.

Finally, Susie blinked and obediently lay down.NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

I could clearly see Susie's cheeks flush, reminiscent of the roses in her garden. My heart tightened inexplicably as I looked into her eyes, shining brighter than ever before.

Then I glanced at Yates, who, with his stethoscope pressed against Susie's chest, was the epitome of focus.

A man deep in concentration is always attractive, especially when he's also handsome.

Susie was definitely smitten with Yates.

"Your heart rate's a bit fast. Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Yates asked Susie.

Susie pursed her lips, shaking her head, then nodded.

Yates was patient. "Is it discomfort, or...?"

"I feel a bit fluttery," Susie admitted, her gaze locked on Yates without wavering.

"Don't be nervous. Just breathe evenly and close your eyes," Yates' voice was soothingly slow.

But Susie shook her head, and Ernest gripped my hand tightly in response.

By then, Susie was pressing her hands against her chest, as if to calm her racing heart.

Seeing her flushed face and her gaze fixed on the ceiling, I walked over and asked, "Is your heart bothering you?"

"Licia, I think I've fallen for that doctor," Susie's confession confirmed my fleeting suspicion.

Ah, the power of a handsome face indeed attracts admirers. It's the same for both women and men.

Yates had barely made an appearance before stirring a flutter in the young girl's heart.

But Susie and Yates being together seemed impossible, not because Fanny also had feelings for Yates. wasn't worried about Susie interfering with Fanny's love life. It was clear to me from the way Yates looked at Fanny that he had feelings for her.

Even though there was nothing between them yet, it didn't mean there wouldn't be.

So, to save Susie from potential heartache, it was best to nip her crush in the bud.

I made a face, "Because he's handsome, right? I feel the same. Just looking at him is a real pleasure. I like him too."
