NovelEnglishChapter 325:
Norah, though not a psychologist by profession, had encountered numerous cases and heard countless stories
throughout her career. Alice’s situation wasn’t uncommon. It mirrored the experiences of many other girls.
Finding a genuine relationship proved to be a challenge.
After they finished their meal, Norah drove Alice to Silver Boulder Private Hospital. Norah had several reasons for
personally visiting the hospital: to cancel leave directly with Jamison, to visit Joanna and Kason, and,
coincidentally, to introduce Alice to Joanna.
They proceeded to Joanna's ward, where lively chatter filled the air. Norah knocked on the door before gently
pushing it open and stepping inside. Joanna was engrossed in conversation with Duncan, who occupied the sofa,
while Bryson engaged in a lively discussion with Darwin and Raina.
As Norah led Alice into the room, Joanna's eyes lit up with surprise. “Ah! Norah! You're back! This is amazing!”
Joanna's exuberant greeting caught everyone off guard, prompting them to rise with excitement upon seeing
Norah and Alice at the doorway.

“Norah, welcback!” Bryson, familiar with Norah, was the first to extend a warm greeting. “It's been too long.
| heard you were on a business trip abroad. Is that true? And who might this lovely lady be?”
Overflowing with joy, Joanna exclaimed, “Norah, I've missed you terribly! You've finally returned, and you've

With a gentle smile, Raina offered guidance, “Joanna, lower your voice. Duncan is still here. Remember to

Joanna grimaced, retorting, “Like a lady? Duncan is my coach. Why should | behave differently just because he’s
here? Norah, | miss you so much!”
Duncan offered a resigned smile, accustomed to Joanna's spirited nature. Norah had intentionally kept her return
a surprise for Joanna, and Joanna's genuine astonishment was exactly what she had expected.
As Joanna continued to express her excitement, Norah couldn’t help but break into a smile.
As they entered, Norah addressed Bryson'’s inquiries, “Yes, | went to Otland. This is my best friend, who's
returned withfor recovery. She was injured, which is why she’s in a wheelchair now.”
Norah then nodded at Joanna's parents and greeted them warmly, “It's good to see you again, Darwin, Raina.”
Previously, Norah had visited Joanna after her work hours, usually not crossing paths with Darwin and Raina.
With a gentle smile, Raina addressed Norah, “Norah, | sincerely appreciate your care for my daughter during her
tin the hospital.”
During Raina’s visits to Joanna, she consistently heard Joanna speak fondly of Norah.
Raina and Darwin remained discerning about the people Joanna associated with, steadfast in their refusal to let
Glophia’s circulating rumors sway their judgment. They harbored a genuine fondness for Norah and empathized
with her experiences.
After a moment of contemplation, Darwin spoke. “Norah, Joanna has shared insights about the Wilson family’s
predicament with us. If there's anything you require, please don’t hesitate to inform either Joanna or me. We are
committed to supporting you.”
Darwin refrained from mentioning the Carter family, recognizing their diminished influence. The Carter Group

financial collapse or potential acquisition.
Norah understood that Darwin was referring to Corrin’s family, likely based on information he had gathered from
the events at the Wilson family’s recent birthday celebration.
Norah replied, “I appreciate your kindness, Darwin, but | assure you, | am capable of managing many things
independently. Thank you.”
While Norah hadn't interacted extensively with Joanna's parents, Joanna's frequent mentions and discussions
had painted a picture of them as good-hearted individuals.
Releasing her grip on Alice's wheelchair, Norah approached the bed and enveloped Joanna in an embrace.
“Please lower your voice. My ears hurt.”
“Really?” Joanna chuckled in response.
With excitement, Joanna exclaimed, “I'm delighted to see you!”
“Now, please introduce your friend to me!”
