No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 555



Thinking about the main reason for my visit today, I said, "Mack, this time Susie came to see the game partly because of you, and it's also a rare chance for you two to spend time together. So, she'll be sticking with you for a few days, under your care. Use this opportunity to figure out your feelings."

Mack looked slightly taken aback. "Felicia, that doesn't seem... right."

It indeed wasn't right, especially since I knew Mack's real intentions for getting close to Susie. But at the moment, I had no other choice.

Susie following me around was too dangerous, so I had no option but to entrust her to Mack's care.

"There's nothing wrong with it. I trust you," I said, hinting at something deeper.

Mack's expression turned a bit awkward, but he nodded. "Thanks for trusting me, Felicia."

I raised my coffee cup to him, and he smiled back.

"How are Judie's parents doing?" Suddenly, I remembered the couple.

"They're okay, I guess. The two years Judie was in a coma probably helped them come to terms with reality, but..." Mack hesitated slightly. "I haven't dared to visit them recently."

"Are you afraid they'll be heartbroken to see you?" I touched on his sore spot.

"It's not just the heartbreak. They also hate me. If it weren't for me, they wouldn't have lost their daughter," Mack said, filled with deep self-blame.

I understood, but couldn't offer consolation.

"By the way, Felicia, Mr. Sears called me asking about you," Mack suddenly said.

I took a sip of my coffee. "What about?"

"He asked for your phone number and about your family," Mack said with a bitter smile. "But I didn't know."

That was information I had never shared with him. Yet, I was curious why Judie's dad would want to know these details about me.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Could it be because I resembled their daughter so much, and they wanted to meet me to ease the pain of missing her?

Or were they curious about why Judie and I looked so similar?

That was something I wondered about too.

"Then give me their phone number and address. I'll visit them when get back," I said, pulling out my phone to open my contacts, handing

He laughed. He had once asked for my contact info and I had refused. Now, I was the one initiating.

Mack added me as a friend and gave me the contact details for Judie's parents.

Fanny sent me a video call, but since it was inconvenient to answer in the coffee shop, I declined and texted her.

She immediately replied: Not answering the video call, is Ernest with you?

Her imagination was indeed wild. I sent her a photo to show her I was in a coffee shop.

But then Fanny sent back a message: How come you're still tangled up with that jerk Conrad?

I was momentarily stunned. Conrad was the "jerk" Fanny was referring to, but when had I ever been involved with him?

I sent a big question mark in response, and Fanny sent back the photo I had taken, with a red circle drawn around it.

I zoomed in on the photo, and indeed, Conrad was there, looking in my direction.

In an instant, I looked towards where I had taken the photo, but there was no sign of him.

He had come and seen me, but he hadn't approached.

It seemed that the harsh words I had

With a mocking twist of my lips, I looked down to reply to Fanny, not noticing someone had approached.
