Chapter 679 Still Angry

In the town of Glophia

"Su, Susanna is on the mend. Regarding Miss Wilson..." Phillip hesitated as he covertly watched Sean's reaction. He had learned from Joanna that Sean and Norah had a dispute, and it troubled him that Sean hadn't reached out to Norah since his return to Glophia.

In Phillip's eyes, Norah was a wonderful woman. It would truly be regrettable if Sean's relationship with her ended in such a manner.

Suddenly, Sean's demeanor shifted, his face clouding over. The office was quiet until he slammed a folder onto the table, the sound echoing sharply.

"Don't bring up Norah Wilson!" he snapped, his voice laced with a chilling ruthlessness.

Even though Sean was still upset with Norah, he had directed his assistant to spread news of his departure before he left Silverdale.

He had seen Joanna earlier and was aware that Norah knew of his return prompted by Susanna's situation.

Yet, Norah had neither messaged nor called him.

He believed she was likely delighted in Silverdale with Marlin by her side, possibly too happy to spare him a thought.

Upon his return, Sean had busied himself with Susanna's affairs and immersed himself in work to distract himself from thoughts of Norah. He had compromised his values for her repeatedly, but to what end? Perhaps she never truly valued him at all

Phillip, sensing Sean's escalating fury, swiftly shifted the conversation. "The Wilson Group is interested in partnering with Scott Group. What are your thoughts?"

"If we find a suitable project, go ahead and pursue it. Just bring me the final approval document when it's ready. Sean inhaled deeply, attempting to control his rising anger. "Has Amabel secured a new job yet?"

Phillip immediately shook his head. "She is still determined to stay with your companies. She's applied Scott Group as well as to Nexa Tech. Is there a problem?"

"Assign her to the Secretary's office. She'll work for me after her orientation."

Phillip's eyes widened in shock as he looked up at Sean. "But she has feelings for you. Would that be appropriate?”

Sean had previously dismissed Amabel because of her feelings for him. Why would he consider rehiring her now? Phillip was baffled.

"Just follow my instructions and refrain from asking too many questions." Sean's gaze was icy as he picked up a document.

"Speak of her only with my explicit permission."

He was clearly referring to Norah.

"Understood." Phillip sighed internally. Sean's anger was palpable this time. He realized he must involve Susanna to mediate. If not, misunderstandings between Sean and Norah might provide an opening for others.

At Concord Hospital.

Previously, Norah always performed surgeries solo. This time, however, the president of Concord Hospital was unusually eager and arranged for assistants for the surgery. She had no choice but to agree. Having assistance during the craniotomy would be a time-saver.

In the president's office, the president briefed the medical staff involved in the surgery. "The doctor leading this operation is the internationally renowned Supernatural Doctor. Make sure to learn from him, all right? This is his first visit to the operating room here at Concord Hospital. We need to make a positive impression on him."

The excitement was palpable among the doctors and nurses. Typically, the Supernatural Doctor was someone they only read about in news reports or academic journals. Now, they were about to meet him in person.
