Fated to Love You Again (Shawn and Norah) novel Chapter 288

Chapter 288 Doesn't Mind If It's Fake

"Dr. Chase, I apologize for coming to see you suddenly. I hope I didn't interrupt your work." The woman held a designer handbag and was dressed fashionably and exquisitely.

"If you're busy with work, there's no rush. I can wait for you outside for a while."

Norah only felt her eyes bulging.

She and this woman had only met once or twice before. She thought she had explained things clearly the last time, but she didn't expect it to still cause such a misunderstanding.

"Madam, did Dean Broser know that you came to see me?" Norah asked after thinking for a moment.

That was right. This woman was James's mother.

"He doesn't know for now." The woman smiled gently.

"Then should I tell Dean Broser?"

"No need, someone at home will tell him. He should know soon."

Now, Norah was caught in a dilemma.

She felt extremely awkward.

The woman seemed to have noticed and took the initiative to say, "It's okay. You don't have to worry about me. I'll wait for you to finish your work."

Just then, Norah's phone rang. It was Dora calling, "Norah, do you have an emergency there? Come back quickly. We have an urgent case."

"Okay, I'll be right there."

"Madam, there's an emergency I have to attend to. If you have something to talk to me, please wait for a moment. I'll come over after I'm done."

"Alright." The woman nodded with a warm smile, and her gaze and expression were very gentle.

Norah hurriedly ran towards the emergency room.

The entire resuscitation process was tense, and every second counted.

Luckily, the patient was brought in early. After the emergency procedures, the patient's condition improved and there was no immediate danger. He could be transferred to the inpatient department and then have surgery.

After taking a sip of water, both of them sighed in relief.

They had narrowly averted a crisis.

Dora finally spoke up, "Who was it that came to see you? You look so worried."

"It was Dean Broser's mother," Norah said truthfully.

"What? Dean Broser's..."

Dora was so shocked that her voice was a little loud.

Fortunately, Norah covered Dora's mouth in time and lowered her voice. "Keep it down."

"Norah, you're amazing. You even know Dean Broser's mother."

"We just happened to meet by chance. I invited a friend for coffee that day, and unexpectedly, Dean Broser and his mother were also at the coffee shop. I happened to have offended Dean Broser that day, right? So I went over to apologize and pay my respects. That was when his mother saw me."

"His mother even asked for my name at the time, but I didn't think much of it."

"But later, during the gathering, I got drunk, didn't I? Dean Broser gave me a ride, and I don't know how his mother heard the rumors, but she thought Dean Broser brought me home and that I was his girlfriend."

"The next day, she came to find me and even gave me a bunch of jewelry. I was really scared at that time."

After finishing her story, Norah let out a sigh.

Dora, on the other hand, excitedly hugged her. "Wow, Norah, I feel like you've encountered a benefactor. How lucky! Dean Broser's mother must have taken a liking to you and wants you to be her daughter-in-law."

Norah immediately reached out and rejected her. "Stop it."

"I can't possibly like Dean Broser. Besides, I already have a man I like."

As soon as she said that, both of them suddenly felt a strange silence around them. It was a bit weird.

Dora was the first to turn around and see James. She...

She froze like a statue.

She quickly tugged at Norah's sleeve and whispered, "Norah, turn around quickly."

"Since my mom specifically came to the hospital to find you, she won't give up if she doesn't see you. I'll go with you."

"Oh, okay."

Norah nodded and followed James.

Finally, the three of them arrived at James's office together.

"Mom, why didn't you give me a heads up before coming? By directly rushing over to find Dr. Chase, you not only scared her but also delayed her work," James said while pouring a cup of tea.

His mother held a teacup and looked at Norah. "Dr. Chase, I'm sorry about that. Next time, I'll come around noon to see you."

Norah smiled and replied, "No worries. Dean Broser, you're overreacting."

But in her heart, she hoped that his mother wouldn't come again.

James also poured a cup of tea for Norah, and she was flattered.

After receiving the tea, Norah repeatedly thanked him.

At the same time, she looked at James with a pleading look.

James saw it but ignored it.

"Son, calling her Dr. Chase all the time might come off as distant, right? You can just call her Norah."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Norah. "Dr. Chase, no, from now on, we'll call you by your name. You won't mind, will you?"

Norah forced a smile. "I don't mind."

"See, Norah is very magnanimous. Don't always have a stern face and look cold. You'll scare her."

James covered his forehead and frowned deeply. Then he walked to his mother and spoke seriously, "Mom, calm down."

"I've already told you that Norah and I are not in a romantic relationship. That day, she didn't go to my house. It was purely out of sympathy and coincidence that I gave her a ride."

"Okay, even if that's the case, you've never given other girls a ride before. Are you sure you don't have feelings for her?"
