Chapter: 1341
Feeling the warmth of their care, Norah managed a small smile. “Yes, I'm dealing with something."
Curiosity piqued among her friends, but Norah maintained her privacy.
“I can't share just yet. In time, you'll understand."
Upon hearing Norah's implicit request for privacy, everyone refrained from further questions. Realizing it was Norah's right to disclose information at her discretion, they shifted their focus.
Joanna then turned to Sean. "Sean, my brother is interested in working with you. Could you consider him for a position?"
Thanks to her rapport with Norah, Joanna felt comfortable enough to make such a request lightheartedly.
Sean agreed without hesitation. “Have Bryson get in touch with my assistant. We'll see what we can arrange."
Joanna grinned, appreciating Sean's willingness to help because of his regard for Norah. "Thanks, Sean. Looks Like Norah's relationship with me has helped land a position for my brother. Norah, I am so fortunate to have a wonderful friend like you. May our friendship last a lifetime."

Norah, touched by the sentiment, responded with a gentle smile, “Okay.”
In the afternoon, everyone left to provide Norah with some space to rest.
However, worries about her parents prevented her from falling asleep.
She was agitated, her pulse quickening as she reflected on Chayce's words about her parents not being well.
After 26 years, the prospect of seeing them stirred a mix of excitement and slight anxiety in her.
Chayce didn't keep her waiting for too long. Shortly after, he arrived at her hospital room door with her parents.
As they entered, Norah heard Gilda's voice. "We ensured nobody saw us enter, Miss."
Gilda locked eyes with Norah. Tears instantly welled up in her eyes as she softly muttered, "Miss..."
