Chapter: 1290

Norah wasn't missing; she had arrived here, though her condition wasn't great.

Jamison was equally shocked and pleased upon hearing the update. He immediately spread the word in the group chat after hanging up.

Last year, Norah had an accident while traveling back to Glophia and disappeared without a trace. Her prolonged absence had left Jamison feeling deeply regretful.

Jamison had sent out Norah, his top student, for an exchange program.

She failed to return and was reported missing.

Jamison and Gil argued her case to the higher-ups and secured a position for Norah in the cardiac surgery department, ready to welcome her back whenever she returned.

Baylor and Jolie, who saw the message in the group chat, exchanged a glance full of malice.

Norah, who had been missing for a year, had reappeared.

Taking advantage of his exchange program experience, Baylor excelled in the cardiac surgery department upon his return and eventually became the leading doctor while Norah was absent.

With a few more years like this, he believed he could keep rising.

Why did Norah have to show up now?

Jolie felt the same way. Her relationship with Baylor had grown, and she knew his situation well. She saw Norah as the hindrance to his promotion.

Initially, when they heard of Norah's disappearance, they dismissed her from their thoughts. However, now that she had returned, they were forced to reconsider her impact.

Why didn't Norah die out there? This was what they both thought.

As the news circulated through the cardiac surgery department, word quickly spread to everyone at Silver Boulder Private Hospital that Norah, the hospital's once-celebrated star, might be returning.

Sean was sitting on a bench outside the ward when he got a call from Gil. Kason and Kaiden sat silently across from him.

When Sean picked up, Gil's voice, shaky and emotional, came through.

"Sean, is it true that Norah has been found?"

Gil's voice, gentle and breaking with emotion, made Sean grip his phone tighter.

"Gil, where did you hear that from?"

“Jamison from the cardiac surgery department mentioned that a doctor at Concord Hospital recognized Norah. Are you aware of this?"

So it was the hospital staff spreading the news. Since Norah had spent three months at Concord Hospital, many people there knew her.

It made sense that the news had spread.

“Yes, I'm actually at Concord Hospital right now. Norah was in a car accident and she's currently under observation in the ward."
