No More Waiting, She Chooses Love novel Chapter 767

Emma was cornering Yates. This time, Yates didn't push back. Despite his own talents, he knew the complexities of the world all too well—how many bright stars go unnoticed. Emma didn't want to make things difficult for Yates. Even though some of what Mia said might have been exaggerated, it was better to err on the side of caution. After all, if their relationship ended up jeopardizing Yates's future, it could create a rift between them.

“Mia has made her point, Yates. You should go,” Emma conceded. It wasn't Mia's words that swayed her; she was thinking of Yates. Yates's lips moved slightly as he gently stroked Emma's cheek, “I'll come find you as soon as I'm free. It won't be long.”

“Okay!” Emma agreed. Yates leaned in and gave her a quick kiss, “Wait for me.” Emma pressed her forehead to his, “Go on, but come back soon.”

As Yates walked away, Mia nodded to Emma before leaving with him. Under the starry night sky, Emma watched them go. Even though she had agreed, a chill of unease settled in her heart. At that moment, she didn't feel like going back, so she turned and headed to her lounge.

“Dr. Harper, is everything okay?” The night nurse was surprised to see her. Emma gave a soft smile, “I wanted to check on the new mother from yesterday. How is she doing? Does she have any family with her?”

Upon hearing this, the nurse leaned in, “Don't even mention it. Her husband's family hasn't shown up at all. It's just her mother here, crying her eyes out.” The nurse shook her head, “Dr. Harper, seeing how cold and unfeeling some people can be makes me rethink marriage and having kids.”
