Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 609:

They attempted to soothe Susanna, who had been restless and upset throughout her infusion that day, crying and screaming several times.

That evening, the quarrel began shortly after Kayla arrived with a well-dressed Nancy.

Susanna was aggressive, while Nancy humbly kept apologizing, nearly in tears. Kayla, witnessing this, felt deep sympathy for Nancy. She gently suggested, “Susanna, maybe you should rest a bit during your infusion. Don’t stress too much. I’m here visiting, after all. Are you not happy?”

Without drawing attention, she quietly positioned herself between Susanna and Nancy, deeply caring for both and unable to bear seeing them cry. Later that night, as they returned home, Nancy, tearful, asked Kayla if Susanna and Sean despised her. Acting obedient and sensible, she even offered to return to Otland to alleviate any distress for her adoptive parents.

Susanna turned away with a pout, muttering to herself, “I’m not happy.” She sensed her parents’ affection shifting towards Nancy and suspected that Nancy’s presence during her treatments was intended to unsettle her. She even pondered whether Kayla aimed to replace her with Nancy. These bitter thoughts intensified her anger. Nancy’s words only made things worse.
