Chapter 644:
At this moment, the air of arrogance he usually carried diminished significantly, making him appear much more
approachable.
Jarrod, taking the lead, treated them to a lavish meal, ordering a plethora of dishes.
“All the dishes I've ordered are the restaurant's signature items. They are absolutely delectable.”

After handing the menu to the waiter, Jarrod smiled and said to Norah, “My mother’s surgery was a success. I'm
immensely relieved. Thank you, Dr. Wilson.”
“Mr. Newman, a single thank you suffices. You're welcome,” Norah replied, lowering her gaze politely.
Jarrod’s interest in Norah grew, but upon sensing Sean’s cold and intense gaze, he quickly concealed his
thoughts. Throughout dinner, aside from social pleasantries, the conversation remained predominantly business-
focused.
Jarrod proactively brought up, “Mr. Scott, regarding the collaboration proposal you mentioned a few days ago, |
will thoroughly review the plan once I return. I'll provide you with an answer by the end of this week.”
The Globe Group, being the largest inteenterprise in the country, received numerous collaboration proposals
daily. Jarrod was particularly impressed by Sean’s stoic demeanor and remarkable appearance.
He conceded that he was only slightly less impressive than Sean!
The two men delved into discussions about their potential cooperation. Norah, uninterested in business talk,
focused intently on her meal. She had never been fond of social engagements.

After a few rounds of drinks, the two men had nearly finalized their agreement.
Holding a wine glass, Jarrod remarked, “Sean, | was unaware of Dr. Wilson's exceptional talent until | met her.
Before my mother’s transfer to Concord Hospital, numerous people insisted her surgery was impossible. The
director of the cardiac surgery department at Concord also said that the success rate of the operation was low.”
As Jarrod spoke, his eyes welled up. “During that time, | constantly envisioned the worst possible outcome. Being
very close to my family, my mother’s illness putin a bad mood, significantly affecting my work efficiency.”
Sean patted his shoulder reassuringly and advised, “With your mother’s operation being successful, make sure
to spend more quality twith her.”
In his view, it was essential to maintain a balance between family and professional responsibilities.
