Upon seeing this, Stanley stepped forward and stopped in front of her, "Yvonne, I like you, and I've liked you since we were medical students, but I... have never dared to confess my love to you... I..."
"Stanley..." Yvonne found it unbelievable.
Stanley continued, "Yvonne, I had wanted to confess my love to you when the lab gets the investment, but you just misunderstood me, so I have to do it now. Yvonne, do you like me?"
Yvonne flushed, not knowing how to answer. She naturally liked Stanley, but his confession of love was too sudden. She was not mentally prepared, and it was under such an awkward circumstance. Should she believe him? Yvonne didn't know, but she couldn't help but feel hopeful.
So she paused and said, "Stanley, I'm running late for work. Let's talk about it later."
Stanley didn't continue to ask, "Okay, let's go to work first."
