Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 47:

Norah was just making an excuse.

She raised her eyes to meet Sean’s. The warmth in Sean’s gaze turned icy suddenly when he learned that Norah planned to leave so quickly.

Susanna shivered slightly due to the sudden cold aura emanating from Sean.

“Supernatural Doctor, if it’s uncomfortable for you to have lunch here, Sean can arrange lunch for you at Solo Mio Restaurant instead. Allow us to treat you,” Susanna urged, hoping to convince Norah not to leave on an empty stomach.

Sean, with a tone of detachment, suggested, “Supernatural Doctor, please give it some thought.”

Feeling trapped by their persistence, Norah realized she had little choice. It was just lunch, yet declining seemed impossible. “Okay then. I’ll have lunch at Solo Mio Restaurant.”

Susanna’s emotions were mixed as she turned to Sean and said, “Sean, you heard Supernatural Doctor.”

Once Norah had left with Phillip, Susanna felt a deep loneliness. She found herself idly twirling her fingers on the couch.

“Sean, does Supernatural Doctor not like me? I talked to her several times today, but she seldom responded. And she didn’t stay to dine with us. Am I that bothersome?”
