Chapter: 538
Norah's path, in contrast, lay in carving her name in the annals of the medical world, embracing the title of Supernatural Doctor.
Sean held Norah in high regard. Establishing a medical reputation like Norah's was no mean feat, even with her exceptional skills.
Across their travels abroad, the Supernatural Doctor garnered widespread recognition, outshining even Sacredice's fame.
“It's alright. I'd be delighted to enlighten you." Sean smiled.
Had Sean known of Norah's past feat in salvaging Bryson's near- bankrupt company, his perception might have differed.
Norah opted to keep her knowledge on business under wraps. She reckoned explanations could be deferred until they bore relevance.
Once, Norah pondered launching her enterprise during her management studies. However, life's myriad obligations, including marriage, relegated this ambition to the recesses of her heart.
Her managerial skills saw Light only once, when she intervened to rescue Bryson's floundering company from the brink of collapse.
Norah's intervention breathed new life into Bryson's enterprise, now thriving more than ever. It was safe to say Norah possessed a modest grasp of business fundamentals.
Norah averted her gaze. Sean's overseas identity and background held no sway over her, regardless of what they might entail.
Their conversation flowed ceaselessly, with Sean tirelessly seeking new topics of discussion throughout the meal, their exchange aimed at deepening mutual understanding.
Sean harbored curiosity about Norah's ownership of a pharmacy lab, one tethered to the national research institute. Yet, he refrained from prying into her secrets. If Norah chose disclosure, he'd listen.
If not, he'd feign ignorance.
With Sean's assistance in securing Alice's passport, Norah spared herself the need for a special trip, allowing her to dedicate more time to making the Vitality Potion in the lab.
Before returning home, Norah dedicated herself wholeheartedly to perfecting the Vitality Potion's formula.
Upon her return to the research institute the following day, Norah basked in the adulation of her fellow researchers, accompanied by Sheri's enigmatic gaze.
Sheri was astonished to learn that Norah possessed the skills to perform surgery on Doug, restoring vitality to his deteriorating hand nerves. The director's briefing confirmed the success of the operation and the meticulous treatment of the wound.
Sheri reluctantly admitted Norah wasn't a charlatan, though Norah's being the Supernatural Doctor awaited validation. Deep down, Sheri was convinced Norah wasn't one.
The previous day's awkwardness dissipated with Doug's injuries, sparing Sheri from unwarranted remarks as she swiftly resumed her research in the lab.
Sheri was distracted at work, her thoughts far from the mundane tasks before her. She pondered the intriguing possibility of Norah being the renowned Supernatural Doctor within the confines of their research institute. If Norah was indeed Supernatural Doctor, could it be that she was working on some medicine?
This thought consumed Sheri, igniting a curiosity about the potential collaborations the research institute might explore. Her commitment to her profession was undeniable.
Sheri speculated on the benefits of integrating the Supernatural Doctor's unique skills into their projects. Could this partnership elevate the status of the research institute, placing their endeavors under a global spotlight?
Sheri resolved close observation was essential. Only by monitoring Norah could she determine if Norah truly possessed the extraordinary capabilities of the Supernatural Doctor.
Sheri's eyes sparkled with the prospect of spreading the word of having the Supernatural Doctor within their research institute. Such a revelation could catapult the research institute into the Limelight, a status Sheri believed was long overdue. Their collective efforts, although significant, had gone largely unnoticed.
