Chapter: 272

Her attitude was a balance between modesty and confidence. Jamison respected her competence and sighed in acknowledgment.

“It's just a one-year delay. You'll surely get the position next year.

Let it slide for now. Attracting too much attention in the current circumstances wouldn't be wise," Jamison replied.

The hospital didn't operate solely under his command. During the meeting called by the hospital director, other associate directors were also present. They were intrigued by Norah, and one even brought up the idea of thoroughly investigating her activities since she joined the hospital, wondering if there were any connections or discrepancies in her medical expertise.

After witnessing Norah in action during numerous surgeries, Jamison knew firsthand about her outstanding medical skills. That was why he made the choice to endorse Norah.

Norah smirked. “If I give up now, wouldn't people think I got this position through shady deals? Everyone knows my medical skills. Why should I let go of this chance just because of some baseless anonymous complaint?"

Jamison hesitated, "Um..

Norah raised her head with determination. “Should I discuss this directly with the hospital director?"

She wasn't about to let go of what she believed was rightfully hers.

Jamison eventually relented, saying, "I'll speak to the director for you. Do you have time later? Let's head to the director's office.”

“Sure thing." Once making sure Joanna and Kason were alright, Norah had some time left to drop by the director's office.

"Great, I'll get in touch later. For now, go ahead with your duties."

Jamison checked the time. The workday was nearly the end of the day.

If Norah wanted to see the director, she would need to hurry.

Norah went to see Joanna first.

Joanna had been transferred to a general ward. Upon Norah's arrival, she found Joanna speaking with Bryson, looking weak and struggling to fully open her eyes.

“Joanna, are you feeling better?" Norah approached the bed with a bright smile. This was the first time Joanna had been awake amid her visits. Witnessing Joanna awake this time filled Norah with genuine joy.

Joanna smiled weakly and said, "Yeah."

Her voice was soft, and her injuries were serious. Without Norah's exceptional medical abilities, Joanna would have endured unbearable pain from repeated flare-ups caused by her suffering. Now that Joanna was awake, her recovery was gradually progressing.

A look of frustration was clear on Bryson's face. "Norah, I'm counting on you to look after Joanna. I have to step outside for a call."

“Sure."

Bryson put on a furious expression and swiftly passed by Norah, clearly showing his anger to anyone who saw him.

"Why is Bryson so upset?" Norah asked.

Norah took a seat beside the bed to check on Joanna. Despite the attending physician having already taken care of these matters, Norah wanted to check everything herself to make sure it was in order. The wound was healing well. Consistent care and time should lead to a full recovery within a couple of months.
