Chapter 328 "Licia," Susie piped up, her senses suddenly on high alert, "What did you just say? You've got a crush on Dr. Yates? That's not gonna fly, you know. You're only supposed to have eyes for my brother." Gone was her playful demeanor, replaced with a look of sheer panic directed at me.
I couldn't help but let out a sly chuckle, though I played it off with a helpless shrug, "But c'mon, the man's a total knockout. The moment I laid eyes on him, I thought, 'Is this guy for real? More like a Greek god than a doctor."" "No way," Susie grabbed my arm, her determination clear, "Licia, sure, he's easy on the eyes, but if you really look at him, he's got nothing on my brother. Doesn't have that rugged charm or the manliness. And let's not even start on how solid a guy my brother is. Nothing like Dr. Fancy Pants over there." "Really?" I feigned confusion, "What makes you say Yates isn't solid?" Susie pouted, then began shaking my arm, "You can't go falling for anyone but my brother. You're his, and that's that." This little lady was all about monogamy, it seemed.

No matter the trials or tribulations, the readers always root for the main couple to stick it through. Susie, having been practically raised on romance , had undoubtedly cast herself in one of those stories. "Exactly! So, you've gotta stick with my brother. No falling for other guys," she declared, quite possessively. "But Yates has already got someone he's into. If you go for him, you're either wishing for them to break up or resigning yourself to the sideline, suffering the silent agony of unrequited love, just like the second female lead in those ," I gently reminded her.
Susie's eyes widened in surprise, "Dr. Yates has a girlfriend?" Before I could respond, she continued, "Makes sense. How could a guy that charming and handsnot be taken?" Seeing her cto her senses, I played along, "Right? Do you know who he's into?" She shook her head, "I just met him today. How would I?" "It's Dr. Willis," I revealed, watching as Susie's eyes went wide, her initial excitement dimming gradually. Leaning against me, she sighed, "No wonder he cto seepersonally. It's all for his girlfriend." Side by side, we gazed out the window, "Dr. Willis has been into Yates for ages, since their college days. That's why she applied to the smedical school as him, becclassmates, to be close to him You could say her entire career was built on that love..." As I shared Fanny's secret admiration for Yates with Susie, she immediately responded, "And Yates never had a clue? Dr. Willis should've just told him. Love's gotta be declared." "Exactly my thoughts. And guess what? By sstroke of luck, Yates overheardencouraging her, so their hidden feelings cto fight," I looked at Susie, hoping to lighten her spirits.
"And I could see in Yates' eyes that he feels the sabout Dr. Willis. That look was just like the way you looked at him," I nudged, causing Susie's cheeks to turn a shade of red.
"Licia, enough," she chuckled, "I get it. I'll stop crushing on Yates. But man, he really is the most...," she paused, then corrected herself, "the most handsguy I've seen, apart from my brother, of course.
Hearing this, I laughed, "Right, the most handsome, after your brother."
"Licia, you're only allowed to like my brother," Susie reiterated, half-oking, e half serious.

Looking at her adorable face, I nodded, "Yeah, maybe a beautiful girl just like you." "Twins would be ideal," Susie ambitiously added.
"Sure, if your brother's up for the challenge," I quipped, just as Ernest's tall figure appeared in the doorway with impeccable timing. Susie turned to him, "Bro, did you hear? Licia said..." "I heard," Ernest cut in, his gaze fixed on me.
And me? I was speechless.
