Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 54:

Norah released her anger by beating Aikin up, finally feeling a sense of release from the frustration that had built up inside her.

Norah scoffed. Did Madeline believe she was some pushover after two years of being obedient within the Carter family?

Later, when Gil called Norah to the Neurosurgery Department, he commended her boldness. “Norah, some people will push boundaries if you show them a bit of leniency. I’ve given Aikin a piece of my mind as well. Let’s move on from this incident. I wanted to see you to discuss a particular case.”

Gil retrieved the medical files from his desk and handed them to Norah. “We have surgery scheduled for next Tuesday. I’d like you to review it. I’m planning on having you join me in the operation.”

“Understood.” Norah, having collaborated with Gil on numerous operations, got straight to work reviewing the files.

“This case isn’t overly complex, but the surgery will be delicate.” Taking a moment to sip his coffee, Gil elaborated, “The patient has a unique condition, and we must ensure the operation goes flawlessly. I’ve committed to making this surgery a success.” The patient was facing an intracranial aneurysm that required a delicate procedure to clip the aneurysm’s base, a task known for its high stakes and difficulty. The aneurysm’s precarious position added an extra challenge to the operation.

Gil glanced at Norah and said, “I’ve spoken highly of you. I’m counting on you to help me execute this operation successfully.”

“I’ve been feeling my age, noticing a tremble in my hands while operating,” Gil sighed, commenting. “Age didn’t seem to matter before, but now, its importance is undeniable. You’re young, Norah, capable of achievements beyond my reach. Keep up the excellent work.”
