Chapter: 53

Sean grabbed the computer from Phillip and got to work, creating an atmosphere of perfect harmony in the Living room.

Once the final wound was addressed, Norah laid out the treatment plan, "The treatment should be carried out every two weeks. Start focusing on your health now so you can begin chemotherapy once you're stronger."

“Got it. When will you visit next? Could you possibly come to my place?" Susanna asked eagerly, “Could we exchange contact details? I promise not to share your contact information with others!"

Norah, with a smile, declined, "Darling, you're lovely, but no."

Norah was fond of Susanna's charming nature and reciprocated the sentiment. Nonetheless, she had to safeguard her anonymity.

Sean closed his laptop and said, "Is today's session finished? Susanna, I'll have someone escort you home. You can leave now."

Disappointed at not obtaining Norah's contact, Susanna protested, “Why? You had Molly prepare so much good food, and now you're sending me away? I won't go!"

Susanna's determination brought to mind the image of Kaiden, who had cheekily sought a free meal just the previous day. Norah couldn't suppress a chuckle.

Susanna was puzzled and asked, "Hello? What's so funny?"

"It's nothing." Norah dismissed with a gesture and said, "Now that we're done, I'll be on my way. I'll discuss the fees with Mr. Dixon. Goodbye, Mr. Scott. Farewell, Susanna."

She rose to her feet, slung her backpack over her shoulder, ready to depart. Yet, Susanna blocked her path.

“Wait a minute! Look, the meal's ready. Won't you join us? The Scott family has a tradition of never letting guests leave hungry. Even if we don't dine out, a simple meal here should suffice," Susanna implored.

Sean's expression soured as he asked, "Do you think the Scott family's food isn't good enough, Supernatural Doctor? Then why did you dine at Mr. Hayes' place yesterday but not here today?"

Norah quickly clarified, "That's not what I meant..."

Honestly, Norah had no desire to stick around here. She preferred to keep her distance from the Scott family members.

“Then stay for the meal. We could discuss my grandfather's and my health," Susanna suggested.

Norah, faced with Susanna's hopeful gaze, felt a bit cornered. She knew that Sean had rushed Susanna away earlier to maintain privacy about her identity.

Yet, she realized that accepting the lunch invitation meant Susanna would leave. Dining with Sean didn't appeal to her. She figured she'd enjoy a nice meal more if she ate it alone.

Catching Sean's eye, Norah signaled her intent to leave, adjusting her mask and attempting to sidestep Sean. Sean explained to Susanna, “Supernatural Doctor wants to keep her identity confidential."

With that, Susanna caught on. "Okay, I'm leaving."

Grabbing the medical record from the sofa, Susanna waved to Norah, announcing, “Miss, I'm leaving. Sean, please look after her for me."

Once Susanna had exited, Sean approached the dining area and said, “Miss Wilson, you can come over for dinner now."

Molly, after setting the table, retreated to the servant quarters.

She wouldn't emerge unless called.
