?Chapter 624:


    The trio kept their eyes fixed on the operating room door. After an agonizing wait, the light above the room finally dimmed.


    The operating room door creaked open, prompting Sean to dash ahead.


    “Doctor…” he began, his voice breaking as he caught sight of those familiar eyes.


    Someone hurried up behind him and shoved him aside.


    “Doctor, how’s the patient inside?”


    “Doctor, how is my son? Is he alright?”


    The doctor was immediately surrounded by anxious family members.


    She quickly ryed the patient’s condition, causing the crowd to burst into tears.


    “He was fine when he left this morning. How did this happen to him?”


    “He’s only 34, with so much ahead of him. My poor son…” Joanna’s heart tightened. The person sobbing was clearly a family member of the patient in the operating room. Norah wasn’t inside.


    “Sean, do you have any news about Norah?”


    “She is fine,” Alice said, her tone filled with relief. “Yes, Norah is fine,” Sean repeated, settling back in his chair, his demeanor rxing.


    Joanna, still puzzled, asked, “How do you know that? Where is Norah?”

    Joanna had been worried, not knowing Norah’s status, but Alice’s and Sean’s calmness only heightened her anxiety.


    “The doctor who just walked out is Norah,” Alice exined, gesturing toward the doctor who was consoling the family. “I recognized her the moment she stepped out.” Even with a mask on, Alice knew it was Norah.


    “I’m certain that’s Norah.”


    Joanna, preupied with the patient in the operating room, hadn’t paid attention to the doctor. Now, she looked closely and recognized Norah too. “Oh, it’s Norah! She’s safe!”


    She eximed in relief, her face softening. Knowing Norah was safe brought herfort.


    Norah quickly returned to the operating room. Outside, people were still crying by the door. A nurse gently reminded them to keep their voices down, but everyone understood.


    Their sorrow was understandable. It’s only natural to grieve the loss of a loved one. They just needed some time toe to terms with the truth.


    The three of them stayed at the hospital for more than two hours, waiting until Norah wrapped up her shift.
