Chapter 413:

In the bustling Cardiac Surgery Department, the morning meeting had just wrapped up when Baylor sauntered over to Norah’s desk.

“Dr. Wilson, mind if we have a quick chat when you’re not busy?”

“My time is valuable. Just say what is on your mind.”

With most of the department’s doctors present, Baylor opted not to discuss matters there. He pushed his hair back and asked, “Would you be available for lunch at the cafeteria around noon? It’s my treat.”

Norah frowned and replied, “Dr. Padilla, I have a boyfriend. I prefer to keep my distance from other men.”

However, the thought of Norah’s exceptional medical prowess and her captivating figure made him pause and reconsider. Perhaps a secret relationship wasn’t entirely off the table. The room lit up with teasing jabs from the doctors who overheard their conversation.
