No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 301

"Why is Dustin calling me at this hour?" I wondered as Ernest added, "He texted you, too."

I was momentarily stunned, and Ernest handed me the phone.

I was still weak and exhausted. Ernest looked at me. "If you don't feel like answering, don't."

As I hesitated whether to call back, the phone automatically disconnected.

I took the phone and checked the unread messages from this morning.

[Felicia, can we meet up?]

[Felicia, I'm unsure if I should tell you something.]

[Felicia, please reply when you see this.]

There were more from the afternoon.

[Felicia, I’m waiting for your reply.]

[Felicia, are you too busy?]

While reading those messages, I could sense Dustin's anxiousness. He had been waiting for my response. He mentioned there was something he was unsure about telling me. Over the years, Dustin had always been like a big brother to me, shielding me from worries whenever possible. What could be troubling him?

After a few seconds of hesitation, I dialed his number.

Dustin picked up quickly. "Felicia, where are you?"

“Dustin, what's wrong?” I asked straight away.

Dustin was silent. As I was about to press further, he asked, “Are you okay?”

He could hear the weakness in my voice, but I was more anxious to know what he wanted to talk about. "Dustin, I’m fine. What did you want to talk about?"

“Can we meet up now?” Dustin asked.

I was stuck in a hospital bed, definitely not the best time for a meetup.
