Chapter: 1537
"No worries," Norah replied. "You look familiar, Mr. Singh. Have we met before?"
Sean's expression darkened slightly. Could they have met before he knew Norah?
Meanwhile, Jaxson, caught under Sean's intense gaze, held his wine glass awkwardly, feeling the tension. Yet, he could not recall meeting Norah before.
A realization dawned on Norah. She set her wine glass down and asked, "Were you with Doctors Without Borders in the border conflict zone, Mr. Singh?"
That triggered Sean's memory. Norah, known as the Supernatural Doctor, had also served with Doctors Without Borders in the conflict zone.
Jaxson had been there as a passionate young man and had once spoken vividly about the harsh realities of the battlefield to Sean.
So, they had met there!
Sean's expression softened. Those who served with Doctors Without Borders were truly commendable.
Jaxson looked surprised. "Yes, but... If someone as beautiful as you had been at the border, I definitely would have remembered!"
Though his comment was light-hearted, it held truth-Norah's striking presence was not easily forgotten.
Norah smiled, recalling the diligent young man from those days.
She chuckled, "Well, we did meet back then."
“Where were you back then? I don't remember seeing you.”
Jaxson expressed his curiosity. Being part of Doctors Without Borders required significant resilience and skill.
Norah had an impressive background, why would she have served with Doctors Without Borders?
Jaxson's view of her changed instantly after such a revelation.
“Well, you'll find out soon enough," Norah replied, keeping him intrigued. "How long do you plan to stay, Mr. Singh?"
"Since you're Sean's girlfriend, please call me Jaxson. I'll be here for a few days before heading to Surella. They're developing a new heart disease medication there, and I want to check it out," Jaxson told her.
It turned out Jaxson planned to visit Surella to explore a special medication for heart disease, which greatly piqued his interest.
As he and Norah delved into a discussion about medical advancements, Sean watched them, resting his chin on his hand and smiling as he observed their animated exchange.
Sean wondered how Jaxson would react upon discovering that Norah was the renowned Supernatural Doctor. He was quite excited about the outcome, Meanwhile, Joanna and Bryson sat together, watching the group engage in lively conversation.
"Norah is truly exceptional," Bryson murmured.
His smile carried a hint of regret. From the moment he first met Norah, her remarkable abilities had drawn him in.
Yet, his reserved nature had caused him to miss the opportunity to pursue her, a decision he now regretted. If only he had been bolder, perhaps they could have been more than just acquaintances.
