"It's not like that actually. I went to the hospital's cafe for a coffee a few days ago and happened to run
into Dean Broser and his mother. His mother seemed to be urging him to have a girlfriend."
Norah said and looked calm.
Dora was different. She became so excited as soon as she heard that.
"Oh my god, Norah, don't you realize how insanely lucky you are?"
"Why?"
Norah didn't think she was lucky.
"We've only been in the hospital for a few days, but you've already met Dean Broser twice, both times
in private settings, while many people at the hospital haven't even had the chance to see him."
"Let's forget about seeing him while having a meal because those who ate in the hospital all saw him at
that time, but you ran into him while having coffee after work. This is just too..." Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
As if she knew what Dora was going to say next, Norah quickly covered Dora's mouth with her hand.
"Don't say it."
Dora blinked her eyes forcefully.
When Norah let go, she still couldn't help but say, "Norah, if this isn't fate, then I don't know what is."
"You two have more than just fate. It's like super fate!"
While speaking, Dora held her face and said with sweetness and expectation, "I wish I could have such
a strong connection with my soulmate too!"
Norah reached out and pulled her. "Alright, wake up. Love will come when it's meant to come."
"And once it comes, you can't stop it. Enjoy your single life now. Love doesn't always bring happiness."
Hearing this, Dora looked at Norah earnestly. "Norah, have you been hurt by love before?"
"Why do you think so?"
"I just feel that your tone seems to be so sad."
Norah lowered her eyes and didn't answer.
It wasn't just love.
There was also marriage.
She didn't have the courage anymore. She was like a little turtle, hiding in her shell and not daring to
come out.
The atmosphere in the private room was getting lively. Some colleagues were singing, some were
playing dice, and others were chatting. It was so kicking.
Norah and Dora joined in playing dice.
One of their colleagues happened to be gossiping.
"I heard that Dean Broser didn't just invite the new employees to dinner by chance. It was because one
of the new employees was his girlfriend."
"But didn't Mrs. Lee just say that Dean Broser is still single and doesn't have a girlfriend?"
The girl who had just revealed the news explained, "I heard that Dean Broser's girlfriend insisted on
studying abroad and he was very angry, so they broke up."
"Since then, Dean Broser hasn't had a girlfriend."
Dora couldn't help but shake her head and sigh. "It's a pity. He's not just handsome but also so
devoted."
"Indeed, handsome men either serve the country or are taken by beautiful women. We have nothing to
do with them."
Norah smiled and pinched Dora's cheek. "Why look for a beautiful woman when I have one right next to
me?"
"Oh, Norah, you always know how to make me happy."
After playing dice for a while, Norah felt that the room was a little stuffy, so she went outside to get
some fresh air.
As she stepped out of the private room, she froze.
Walking toward her down the long hallway was a face she knew all too well.
At that moment, Norah was completely stunned.
She never expected to see Shawn at this dinner party.
Since he left in anger last time, they had no contact with each other, let alone speak.
Now, they suddenly bumped into each other, and she actually didn't know if she should speak to him.
The hallway was very quiet.
Although it had only been a few days, it felt like they had been separated for a lifetime.
Their black eyes gazed at each other in silence as if they were so far away from each other.
Although the distance between them was neither long nor short, they just looked at each other, and
neither one took the initiative to speak.
In fact, they were not far from each other. Even his private room was across hers.
As long as one of them moved forward at this time, they would be close.
But neither of them took a step forward.
Finally, it was Norah who relented.
She gently released her grip, realizing her palm was already sweating.
She lifted her foot and was about to take a step forward. She opened her mouth and wanted to call out
to him.
Suddenly, the private room door opened.
The next moment, two beautiful women walked forward with charming smiles, one on each side of
Shawn, their smiles dazzling.
Norah was stunned and withdrew her foot in an instant.
At the same time, her parted lips trembled violently a few times and she closed her mouth tightly.
She was so relieved that the dim hallway lights prevented Shawn from seeing her movement just now.
Or he would laugh at her.
In that case, she would lose all her self-respect.
She smiled noncommittally.
The truth turned out to be like this. She had overthought everything.
Just now, she had even thought about going forward and explaining. She wanted to tell him seriously
that she and Matthew were just friends.
But why bother?
What did she see?
In fact, she was the only one who cared and couldn't move on.
He had forgotten all their past.
But she kept it in her mind all the time. How pitiful.
It was ridiculous.
Despite the blurry lighting, Norah couldn't help but admit that the two women were stunning.
They were tall and had long and slender legs.
More importantly, they were sexy and had fair skin. She remembered that Shawn liked women with fair
skin.
That made sense. But then again, which man didn't like that type?
Shawn was also a man, so he wouldn't be an exception.
Moreover, he could afford to have any woman he wanted.
Shawn didn't move or reach out. He simply let the two women hold onto his arms and got closer to
Norah.
Norah couldn't bear to watch anymore, so she turned around determinedly, pushed open the door of
the private room, and quickly walked in.
She felt suffocated and lost all her interest in the party.
As she entered, her colleagues were already pouring drinks and toasting.
When her turn came, she didn't know why but she picked up the glass, raised her head, and drank the
wine in one go.
But it only made her feel worse.
She felt like there was a big stone weighing down her chest. It was heavy and thick, making her so
uncomfortable.
Just then, someone said, "Latest news! Dean Broser is here!"
"He's already entered the hotel and will be here any moment. Everyone, get ready to welcome him!"
As soon as he said that, the private room door was opened by a pair of fair and slender hands.
Norah watched in a daze and suddenly walked toward the door.
