Chapter: 829

“Thanks for keeping me in the Loop.”

Now that she understood the situation, Norah preferred not to Linger on their relationship. She found it uninteresting and wanted to focus on more surgeries instead.

The romantic affairs of others were irrelevant to her; her priority was her work.

After sharing a loving glance with Jolie, Baylor looked over at Norah, who was diligently taking notes. Sitting upright, her hand moved swiftly as she wrote. He had seen Norah's notes before and admired her neat handwriting.

Despite he was already dating Jolie, Norah seemed unfazed. Didn't she feel driven to win him back?

His relationship with Jolie was nothing serious, driven mostly by Jolie's initiative. Since Jolie had approached him without expecting anything in return, why not accept her? Moreover, Jolie had a pretty face, and being with her wasn't a disadvantage for him.

Initially, he had hoped to provoke Norah by dating Jolie, but Norah didn't even give him a second look, showing no interest whatsoever.

With a stern expression, he looked over the documents about Concord Hospital. Once there, he wondered if Norah could continue to maintain her arrogance.

Norah might be the top doctor in their department, but Concord Hospital was filled with top-tier talent. Could Norah still stand out?

He was curious to find out.

After her shift, Norah was stopped by Luna again.

Shayla rushed to her and wrapped her arms around her leg, gazing up at her.

"Auntie, come home, please. Let's eat..."

The girl's eyes radiated pure innocence as she stared up at Norah.

Norah shot a cool look at Luna, who was standing behind Shayla.

"I've told you before, treat me as a stranger. Don't come to me."

Luna was holding a gift bag in her left hand and offered a smile.

"Today, I'm not here to thank you. Your advice led me to take Shayla for a check-up, and the doctor caught the issue early. It's nothing serious."

She lifted the bag slightly. "I brought these as a thank you."

“I appreciate the thought, but I don't need gifts."

She wanted to keep her distance from Luna and her family; she had no interest in associating with them.

Luna came closer to Shayla and patted her head. "Norah, look at Shayla. Isn't she looking healthier? As a mother, my biggest fear is my child falling ill. Are you refusing my gift because you dislike Shayla?"

Shayla silently wrapped her arms around Norah's thigh, her eyes slowly becoming misty.

“Auntie, I like you."
