NovelEnglishChapter 296:
In the hospital, Alice was overjoyed at Norah's proposal. “I'm willing! I'm so willing!”
Although Alice couldn't stay too long in Cesland, she would take the opportunity to visit and experience the local
customs. She was acutely aware that she and Norah hailed from different nations. However, she was eager to
visit Norah's homeland.
Norah's smile lit up the room. “Alright then, I'll see to your passport and visa application so you can cwith
us.”
“Thank you very much, Norah.” Alice, who had grown accustomed to injuries even as a child, didn’t feel that a
gunshot wound was a sufficient reason to stop moving. She considered herself fit for a simple trip.
Sean was fine with it. As long as Norah was happy, he was happy.

Sean personally escorted Norah to the car, then watched her drive off until she was out of sight. It was quite
unfortunate that he lacked the proper pharmacological knowledge; otherwise, he would have assisted Norah in
making medicines.
“Phillip, please help Alice procure a passport and visa. It should be done as soon as possible,” Sean instructed.
“Okay,” Phillip responded.
At the SN Shopping Mall, Norah awaited the arrival of the private elevator. Just then, a woman approached her
and asked, “Are you a staff member of the research institute? Don’t you greet your superiors?” Displeasure was
audible in her tone.

Norah glanced at the woman. The woman was tall with brown, wavy hair and an arrogant expression on her face.
Norah's silence seemed to provoke her even more. “I'm talking to you. Are you deaf?” the woman sneered.
Norah chose not to engage and simply looked away.
“Which project team are you with? I'm the overall project leader. Why didn’t you greet me?” The woman nearly
screamed now, her face reddening in anger.
Sheri Avila, the arrogant woman, had been pampered by everyone at the research institute and expected
deference from all, except the director. This was the first tshe encountered someone from the institute who
hadn’t acknowledged her.
Sheri was only at the institute for a week, studying at headquarters, and couldn’t understand why Norah hadn't
greeted her upon seeing her.
Norah understood now why Sheri acted the way she did. The title of overall head of all project teams was quite
lofty. Apart from the director, Sheri was the most powerful person within the institute.
However, as Norah wasn’t an employee of the institute, she saw no reason to show Sheri any respect, especially
given the woman's lack of manners. Even when she crossed paths with the institute director, Norah had only
offered a casual greeting. She abhorred pointless social interactions.

“| asked you a question!” Sheri snapped impatiently, stepping closer.
Sheri then tried to push Norah, demanding her attention.
Norah gracefully stepped aside, causing Sheri to nearly lose her balance.
“You!” Sheri exclaimed, fuming. “You won't say anything, right? Wait until we get to the institute!”
As the overall head of the project teams, Sheri had witnessed researchers being dismissed for their lack of
contributions to the projects.
“What's your name?” Sheri demanded.
Norah, however, continued to ignore her.
Engaging with Sheri was not a wise choice. Eventually, Sheri would get the message and stop harassing her.
Norah was not a member of the research institute and, as such, felt no obligation to show any respect to the
head of the project teams.
