Chapter: 109

Phillip released Aikin and shoved him aside, casting a disdainful glance at Aikin whimpering on the ground before telling Norah, "Miss Wilson, Mr. Scott is waiting for you."

Norah understood that she could hitch a ride again today.

Inside the luxury car, where a subtle scent lingered, Norah buckled up, her hands tightly clasped on her lap, lost in thought.

Sean glanced at Norah's face and realized she was reflecting on the past event. He found it mildly amusing.

Phillip gave a swift summary of the recent altercation.

“Norah, your experiences at the hospital sure are dramatic," Sean said.

"I was under the impression that hospital duties left little room for romantic endeavors," Sean added.

Norah faced Sean and responded, "Mr. Scott, you have heard what Mr. Dixon said. You're aware I've been wronged, so why tease me?"

Norah was skeptical, figuring someone as attractive as Sean must have been the subject of gossip himself.

"Mr. Scott, why did you visit Silver Boulder Private Hospital?" she asked.

Sean revealed a medical report, explaining, “I was here to consult with Gil about Susanna's health and her forthcoming treatment strategy."

It dawned on Norah that Sean was genuinely concerned for Susanna.

Such dedication was typical for tasks delegated to assistants, yet he came personally.

"As you guessed, Gil provided a detailed treatment strategy," Sean mentioned.

Norah didn't tell Sean that the treatment plan was a joint effort between her and Gil.

"If Susanna diligently maintains her health, her condition will undoubtedly improve," Norah said.

Sean fixed Norah with a serious gaze and simply stated, “Hope so."

After a moment, he offered, “Norah, my business card has Phillip's number, Feel free to contact us anytime. Just like today, you can directly call Phillip. He's adept at managing situations like these.”

Phillip was surprised, puzzled as to why Sean would label him an expert in managing gossip.

“There's no need. I've got this under control," Norah politely refused.

Norah didn't see it as significant and felt no need to seek Sean's assistance on this. She preferred not to be in anyone's debt.

As Sean's black car faded into the distance, Norah turned around and headed home, a heavy sigh trapped in her chest, screaming for escape.

She quickly grabbed her phone, her fingers flying as she fired off messages to Derek.

“Derek, you wanted to split without hard feelings, yet here you are, plotting behind my back! Do you think I will not notice just because I don't say anything?"
