Chapter 116:

As soon as Norah reached the hospital gate, she spotted an inconspicuous black luxury car parked at the curb.

Norah kneaded her temples. “Again?” she muttered to herself. She began retracing her steps, intending to make a detour to avoid running into Sean.

When Sean saw her from the car, his lips twitched. It seemed like she was trying to avoid him again.

“Phillip, ask Norah to come here and emphasize to her that I must meet with her today,” Sean said, looking down, unable to hide the darkness that lurked in the depths of his eyes.

Phillip planted himself in Norah’s path outside the parking lot.

When Norah heard Phillip, her expression turned strange for a moment. “Did Sean really say that?” Norah hadn’t seen Sean for several days. She assumed that Sean wasn’t serious about their intimacy and that, with time, they would both forget about it through some unspoken agreement. However, Sean was eager to meet her, and this was the fifth time he had shown up in the past few days.

Norah had tried to dodge him each of the previous times he had appeared, but today, she had nowhere to hide.

“Okay, I see.” Norah slid her car key into her purse and followed Phillip to Sean’s car. She opened the door and got in. Upon seeing Sean, who was sitting in the back seat, Norah inhaled sharply. They hadn’t seen each other since the night they shared intimacy, which had happened several days ago.

When treating patients from the Scott family, Norah purposely avoided Sean. Every time she laid her eyes on him, memories of that night would resurface, making her feel mortified. Sean had been the first man she had slept with.

“Sean,” Norah greeted calmly, offering a small nod.

“Norah, finally willing to see me?” Although Sean sounded composed, there was an underlying iciness to his words. “I thought you were going to avoid me for the rest of your life.”
