FakeNovelChapter 225:
Phillip gripped the steering wheel firmly. Susanna had always feared that her illness would be the end of her, and
she yearned to see her loved ones happy before her tcame.
The thought of Sean’s marriage weighed heavily on Susanna. Upon discovering Sean’s possible affection for
Norah, Susanna went to great lengths to set them up.
Reflecting on Susanna’s words and actions brought a smile to Phillip’s eyes. What a naive girl.
When Norah walked past the front desk with a group, the nurse greeted her warmly. “Miss, good morning. Your
friend has had her breakfast and is waiting for you in the room.” This nurse was the only one on duty.
Despite her fears for Norah, she felt compelled to make her presence known. After all, what if Norah complained
to her superior about yesterday's events? Only God knew the extent of her efforts to care for Alice.

Norah gave the nurse a brief, uninterested look and remained silent. Yet, the nurse maintained her courteous
demeanor. “Miss, if there's anything you need, please feel free to approach the front desk.”
Phillip sensed that he had somehow displeased Norah since it was uncharacteristic of her to ignore the nurse.
Sean’s and Norah's fingers were intertwined. Noticing Norah's coldness toward the nurse, he asked, “What's
wrong?”
Norah shared the previous day’s incident. “Being a staff member at this hospital, she allowed unauthorized
individuals to enter the patient's ward, jeopardizing the patient's safety. She's incompetent.”
Norah, one of the medical staff herself, was frustrated with the nurse's negligence. She believed in excellence
and dedication in her work.

“You're correct. Let's not dwell on it,” Sean advised gently, aiming to soothe her. “Don’t let such people affect
your mood.”
“I know,” Norah replied. She wouldn't let herself get upset over trivial matters.
Sean remained silent, offering her a doting smile. She caught his gaze, then quickly looked away, biting her lip.
Could it be love making her act this way? Seeing Sean lately always made her smile. Despite her busy schedule,
she found herself in good spirits.
“Alice, I've cto visit you,” Norah announced her arrival. The nurse mentioned Alice had awakened.
As Norah opened the door, she called out for Alice, “I've brought someone along to see you today.”
Alice gazed at the drifting leaves outside the window, contemplating the brief moments it would take to shoot
them with her gun. Lying in bed to let the recovery take its course felt like forever, and there was little she could
do to kill the time.
Her injuries from gunshots on her shoulders and legs severely limited her movements. Confined to her bed, Alice
awaited Norah's visits every day.

“Norah, you're here. Who's this with you?” Spotting their interlocked hands, Alice asked, “Is this the person
you've mentioned?”
“Yes. Alice, this is my boyfriend, Sean Scott.”
“Pleased to meet you, Sean. I'm Alice, a close friend of Norah's.”
Alice kept her introduction brief. The details of her bond with Norah, forged during their twithin the
organization, were carefully kept secret.
Sean nodded, replying calmly, “Pleasure to meet you, Alice.” He then stepped aside, positioning himself quietly
behind Norah.
Norah released his hand, settled beside Alice on the bed, and said, “I've arranged a new caregiver for you. She'll
look after you in my absence. If anything seems amiss, just letknow.”
Sean glanced at his hand, now without Norah's warmth, feeling a sense of solitude.
