Love on the Fast Track (Derek and Norah)

Chapter 831

Chapter 831:

“Otherwise, | might still be suffering.”

Damon eagerly took the fruit basket from Norah and said, “Dr. Wilson, thank you. You really didn’t have to bring

anything.”

“I'm here as his friend. It wouldn't be right to visit without bringing something.”

Norah approached the bed with a gentle smile.

“I heard sarguing at the door just now.”

Damon set aside the fruit basket, turned, and said in a complaining tone, “Dr. Wilson, could you please talk some

sense into him? He woke up this morning, eager to get back to work. He’s not even fully recovered, and all he

Jarrod turned his head, feeling embarrassed as he was scolded by his father in front of Norah.

Norah understood Jarrod’s mindset well. She had encountered many people who prioritized work above all else.

Including herself.

“I've reviewed your report. The stomach issue is your most pressing concern. After this surgery, you need to

gone through it themselves. The intensity could be so severe that it left them feeling weak all over and on the

verge of blacking out.

Damon nudged Jarrod on the shoulder and said, “You should listen to Dr. Wilson's advice.”
