Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 129:

Norah was speechless for a moment, unable to believe that Sean had been waiting for her for so long.

“Yeah, we’re just ordinary friends,” Norah replied as she pushed the ward’s door open. “Tell Spencer, are you and Mr. Scott familiar with each other?”

Hearing this, Spencer shook his head and replied, “No.” How could he be familiar with Sean, when it was nearly impossible for his sister, who was a secretary at Sean’s office, to even catch a glimpse of him? To Spencer, Sean was basically a ghost—he was never around.

As Spencer and Norah entered Kason’s ward, they found Kaiden sitting on a chair near the bed, his anxious eyes fixated on Kason, who lay motionless on the bed, his breathing weak and shallow.

Walking up to Kaiden, Norah softly asked, “Hasn’t he woken up at all?”

Kaiden shook his head, wiping away the tears that were gathering in his eyes. “No. Not even a blink.”

Kason had remained unconscious since the surgery performed on him the night before. Norah patted Kaiden’s shoulder and consoled him, “Stop crying. Everything is going to be alright. He’s going to wake up eventually. I just took advantage of being off duty to come and check on Kason.”

“That’s kind of you, Norah,” Kaiden said as he made way for her and watched her as she examined Kason’s condition. “The gunshot wound should heal quickly, as long as he doesn’t stress the wound.”

As for the injury to his wrist, we might need to treat it again,” Norah said.

Kason wasn’t fully healed from his initial wound and couldn’t lift heavy objects when he decided to visit the Fox Alliance’s base. Now, with his new injury, he would have to stay in bed for anywhere from 10 to 15 days. With a sigh, Norah looked up at Kaiden and said, “He’s nearly fully recovered. Take good care of him, okay?”

“Will do. You have my word,” Kaiden replied firmly.
