Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 605

Chapter 605:

Norah gazed up at the sky; she hadn't been back to Silverdale for many years. She pondered the well-being of

acquaintances from her past.

The team leader was busy counting heads as Baylor stayed close to Norah.

“Dr. Wilson, don’t worry. Since we are both from the Cardiac Surgery Department, I'll look after you.”

Norah moved forward with an impassive face. “Thank you, but I'm capable of looking after myself.”

She was not a child; she did not require supervision on a business trip. Though her boyfriend offered the same

help, her reaction might have been warmer. This was typical of Norah; she interacted differently with different

individuals.

Concord Hospital had organized their transport. A double-decker bus was perfectly sized to fit the group.

Norah boarded the bus and chose her seat. When Baylor seemed interested in the seat next to hers, she

dismissively sent him away with a cold stare. Eventually, a female colleague took the seat instead.

A doctor took the seat beside her. “Hello, Dr. Wilson. I'm Gemma Burke from the Plastic Surgery Department. I've

heard so much about you.” Gemma, sporting a round face and a friendly smile, was eager to introduce herself as

soon as she sat down. “I've looked up to you for a long time. You're incredible!” Gemma appeared to be around

25 or 26 years old, close to Norah's age. She was courteous, and her voice carried a gentle tone. Despite this

being their initial encounter, Norah formed a favorable impression of her.

Norah smiled and greeted, “Hello, Dr. Burke.” Gemma was excited to meet Norah and wanted to engage more,

Norah was busy replying to messages on her phone when Gemma'’s request caught her off guard. She looked up,

slightly surprised, but responded with a smile. “Sure.” First impressions mattered a lot to Norah. She wasn’t

familiar with any of the other female doctors from Silver Boulder Private Hospital. Choosing a roommate who

seemed easygoing was preferable.

Though she didn’t know Gemma well, her instincts suggested they might get along just fine.

“Thank you!” Gemma exclaimed, almost shouting in her excitement. She quickly clasped her hand over her

mouth, her eyes sparkling.

“If you ever need advice on plastic surgery, just ask me. However, Dr. Wilson, you are so beautiful. You really

don’t need any procedures.” Gemma examined Norah's face, observing from her forehead down to her chin. “To

me, your features are absolutely perfect, truly stunning!”
