?Chapter 1137:


    Norah preferred going home to see her parents rather than engage in Baylor’s maniptive schemes.


    “I have other priorities at the moment, maybe some other time. And please, give my regards to Dr. Austin.”


    Dr. Austin had consistently caused her trouble.


    She had hopes for a smooth rtionship between Dr. Austin and Baylor, considering them a perfect match.


    Baylor’s expression turned cold as he felt her words were tinged with sarcasm, and he watched her leave.


    Time hadn’t eased the irritation he felt toward her.


    Jolie learned from Baylor about Norah’s visit and herments. This made her feel a twinge of difort.


    She recalled asking Norah for a favor before she left for Concord Hospital. Although she hadn’t received any updates, conversing with Baylor stirred a sense of guilt within her.


    Unbeknownst to Baylor, she had once suspected him of infidelity and had told Norah to keep an eye on him.


    “It’s better if Norah stays away. But even if she returns, it won’t affect you—you’re the esteemed Dr. Padi now,” Jolie reassured Baylor.


    She was always keen to keep him in good spirits. Though she was concerned about Norah’s return, she masked her anxiety. They were both convinced that Norah would likely resume her duties within a few days.

    Norah was aware that her presence at the hospital would catch the cardiac surgery department off guard. Baylor had intentionally approached her and probably spread news about her to others, even though she had intended to keep a low profile.


    She picked up Gil and had dinner at Trudy’s ce.


    At Wilson Manor, the family gathered around the dinner table, including the newest member, Marlene.


    In the presence of Marlene, Iker refrained from mentioning his schemes against Norah at his uing birthday party, choosing instead to focus the conversation solely on business matters.


    “Have you figured out who leaked ourpany’s confidential information, Hank?” he inquired.


    Hank set his fork aside and swallowed hard, his voice tinged with nervousness as he said, “It turned out to be a junior employee from the nning department. I’m not sure how she managed to breach our internalwork and get hold of sensitive information, but she sold it to a rivalpany for a huge sum. I’ve already initiated legal action against her.”


    Iker was startled. It wasn’t Norah or Sean who had tried to undermine thepany?
