Chapter: 101

"What's wrong? You okay?" With a scalpel gripped firmly, Norah glanced up and asked.

Tears welled up in Susanna's eyes. Norah assumed Susanna's tears were due to the pain.

Handing a piece of candy to Susanna, Norah offered comfort, "Hang on there just a little longer."

Taking the candy, Susanna's mood instantly lifted, her earlier concerns forgotten. She eagerly showed it to Sean, who had just emerged, saying, "Sean, look, Supernatural Doctor gave me candy!"

The simple gesture of receiving candy brought Susanna immense joy.

"See what I got!"

Sporting light blue pajamas, Sean emerged from the room and saw Norah slipping candy into Susanna's hand. He couldn't help but chuckle.

At home, Sean appeared less stern and more tender. Norah found herself stealing a few more glances at him. Sean looked even more handsome in this way.

Recalling her dream from last night, Norah blushed and focused on her work, lowering her head.

Perhaps influenced by their interaction the previous evening and the soothing bath, Norah drifted into a dream where Sean showed up.

Remembering his teasing words and actions in her dream made Norah's cheeks warm.

After enjoying the candy, Susanna's eyes twinkled with delight.

“Supernatural Doctor, why are your ears so red?"

At this, Sean looked over and noticed the blush spreading to Norah's ears.

“Feeling a bit warm?" Susanna asked.

Norah hesitated to speak the truth. She could already feel Sean's scrutiny. "I'm okay," she said instead.

Sean, casting a thoughtful glance at Norah, settled at the living room table, refocused on his work, and began typing swiftly.

The flush on Norah's face eventually faded. She admitted Sean was the finest man she had ever encountered in terms of family background, skills, and looks. Somehow, she recalled Joanna's question. “Norah, have you ever considered pursuing one of them?"

But her previous marriage to Derek had dulled Norah's interest in romantic pursuits, at least for now. If not for that, she might have eagerly sought Sean's affection. What would life be like with someone as remarkable as him?

Norah snapped out of her thoughts, realizing she had been overthinking.

Norah packed up her tools and bid farewell.

Susanna quickly stood up and urged, “Supernatural Doctor, don't rush off. Stay for a bit longer."

The table was already set for lunch.

Sean looked up, inviting, “Supernatural Doctor, do join us."
