No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 441



Fanny wasn't one to back down either. "Right, Yates has a girlfriend. Milly, you know better than to cross that line."

Standing her ground with such confidence spoke volumes about her status.

As Milly and Fanny locked eyes, it became clear that Milly couldn't shake Fanny.

After a few verbal volleys without a clear win, Milly finally broke the tense silence. "Tell Yates to leave an hour early tomorrow. No one's going to wait for him if he's late."

It was obviously a bluff, clearly just an excuse to start trouble.

Fanny chuckled, "Alright, then we're pulling an all-nighter."

At that moment, I really wanted to give Fanny a round of applause. She was just too cool.

Under Fanny's provocation, Milly's radiant face finally crumbled, and she stormed off.

Watching her leave, I gave Fanny a thumbs-up.

She pointed at me, signaling how impressed she was that I lived next door to them.

In this silent battle, Fanny had emerged victorious, and it was absolutely exhilarating.

Back inside, I jumped onto Ernest, planting a kiss on him. "You missed it, my hero was absolutely fantastic."

Ernest wrapped his arms around my waist. "You sound like you've just beaten a rival in love."

"Yeah, absolutely! Fanny's rivals are my rivals, and her happiness is my happiness. No one gets to mess with that," I made my stance clear.

"And at the cost of our happiness?" Ernest whispered.Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Thinking back to the sudden stop we had earlier, I felt a pang of guilt and cupped his face in my hands. "It won't happen again."

"There's a next time?" Ernest teased.

I answered him with a kiss, a tactic that Ernest was particularly fond of, quickly moving us past the topic of our abrupt stop.

"Continuing in the cradle?" His voice was husky.

"Mhm," I nibbled at his earlobe, "Looking for a new adventure."

Ernest always aimed to please. We moved from the cradle to the sofa and finally ended up on the balcony.

Naturally, that was my idea.

I told Ernest, "I wonder if Fanny and Yates are as wild as us?"

Turns out, was thinking too much. There was no sign of Fanny and Yates on the balcony, but as Ernest held me from behind, watching the night sky, I felt like I could reach out and touch the stars.

After all that excitement, I was definitely tired, but I still kept an ear out for any noise from the neighboring room.

Luckily, after Milly had been driven away by Fanny, there was no sign of her returning.

After Ernest and I had showered,

with him going after me, I was exhausted but still curious about Fanny's situation. So, I lazily opened WhatsApp on my phone.

"Send a pic of the battlefield." I added a cheeky emoji to the message.

But Fanny didn't reply. So, I sent another teasing message: "Still in the midst of battle?"

No reply came, and I couldn't wait up for her response because I was truly beat. I was about to put my phone down and sleep when it pinged with a new message. Opening it, Dsaw it wasn't from Fanny.

Exiting the chat with Fanny, I saw a message from 'JusticeHeart.'

I couldn't recall who it was at the moment.

But the message sent a jolt through me

"There's a page missing from your parents' accident report. Contact me if you want it."
