No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 632

When Dustin and I got back to the Wagner family home, Conrad was there too. His face turned dark the moment he saw us, unmistakably upset.

Jacqueline, as warm as ever, could hardly contain her joy at seeing me, even wiping away tears as she said, "I've been longing for the day you'd come back to us, dear."

Herschel was lounging in a rocking chair near the sofa, looking physically and mentally drained. It was clear his health wasn't on the mend, and his gaze darted away from mine, filled with unease. Some truths, once acknowledged, can never allow things to return to how they were.

"Herschel," I greeted him politely. Having decided to bury the hatchet with them, I wasn't about to act like they owed me anything.

Herschel just nodded, without uttering a word.

Conrad stood up, and as he passed by Dustin, he said, "You, come with me."

It was always clear with Conrad; he never was one to hide his feelings. To anyone watching, his intentions were obvious.

Jacqueline looked worried too. She glanced at me, seemingly wanting to say something but holding back. When she couldn't bear it anymore, she finally spoke up, "Felicia, I see you and Dustin are getting along quite well?"

"Dustin has been pursuing me," I gave her a straightforward answer.

Both Jacqueline and Herschel stiffened at my words. Jacqueline's smile twitched, "And... have you accepted?"

It was clear she hoped I hadn't.

After Conrad and I had split, she had hinted at giving Dustin a chance, hoping to keep the love within the family. But now, her attitude had shifted, likely due to the ‘truth' that had come to light, bringing with it new concerns.
