Chapter 289 Can You Do Me a Favor?
"Mom, why don't you understand? It was just an accident."
"Besides, she has someone she likes, and I am not the type she likes."
The woman finally understood a little and blinked her long eyelashes.
But soon, she spoke again, "Even so, you still have a fair chance to compete, and she just has someone she likes. They haven't been together yet. Before there's no opportunity, son, you still have a chance."
On the side, Norah felt uneasy and restless.
She had already touched her nose several times in a row.
Her heart was full of helplessness.
"Mom, why are you so stubborn and not willing to follow my words? I just don't understand. Why do you insist on me being with her?"
"There's no reason. I just like her and want you to marry her."
"Mom, she's a person, not a product. Just because you like her doesn't mean she's yours."
"I didn't say that. So I want you to work hard, strive, and win Norah's heart so that she can marry you willingly."
After the quarrel, the one who compromised was James.
"Alright, I understand what you mean. I'll work hard and strive, okay?"
James looked at his watch and said, "It's time for you to go to the beauty salon, right? I'll have the driver take you there."
As soon as she heard "beauty salon," the woman immediately picked up her bag and didn't delay any longer.
Before leaving, she said to Norah, "Norah, I am straightforward. I hope you don't mind what I just said. If you have time, I will take you to the beauty salon, and let's chat."
She also said to James, "Son, try your best. I believe in you!"
Then, the woman left satisfactorily.
The office instantly became quiet.
In the next few minutes, neither Norah nor James spoke, and both of them remained silent.
Norah took several sips of water from her cup and finally finished the entire cup of tea sip by sip.
After finishing the last sip, Norah put down the cup. "Dean Broser, since there's nothing else, I'll go downstairs and work."
"Wait."
James quickly stopped her.
Norah had to stop again.
James rubbed his forehead, feeling a headache as he spoke, "You heard what my mom said just now. She really likes you and even considers you as the one she wants me to marry."
"Yeah, I heard that."
"What do you think about it?"
Norah was speechless.
Was he kidding? What could she possibly think?
Just because his mom liked her didn't mean she had to marry him for real, right?
She had dedicated herself to this hospital, and she wouldn't sacrifice herself for a job. It would be too much of a loss.
"Dean Broser, your mom might just say that on a whim. If she meets someone more compatible and outstanding, she will forget about me."
"That's not possible." James denied it directly. "For so many years, she has only met one girl that she finds compatible and likes, and that's you."
"Norah, I'm thinking if you could do me a favor."
Norah had a very bad premonition in her heart. "What favor?"
