Love on the Fast Track

Chapter 1224:

“Bernice, don’t dwell on it too much. Florence just needs time to let go of her hard feelings. We all want you back.” Huntley approached and gently patted her head, comforting her as he used to during their childhood. “I’m here, and you can always return home.”

Bernice nodded, her lip quivering, holding back tears. Her longing for her family had never faded during her time with the Wilsons.

Huntley turned to Norah and said, “Norah, Bernice mentioned you’re a doctor. We have trust in you, but we can’t take any more risks with your grandfather’s health. We’ve consulted numerous specialists…”

He hesitated, reluctant to continue.

Caylee finished his thought, saying, “As I explained earlier, your grandfather’s condition suggests he may have no more than three months. We’ve already started planning for his funeral.”

Norah understood. That explained her grandfather’s serene demeanor. Seeing her mother seemed to have brought him peace.

“In my view, with the right care, Grandpa could live another ten years,” she announced.

Her confident declaration, accompanied by a smile, left everyone in shock.

Huntley’s expression soured. He had initially been impressed by his niece, but her bold assertions made her seem arrogant. Was she a renowned doctor? By claiming she could extend his father’s life by ten years, was she dismissing the specialists he had consulted?

Caylee was at a loss for words. Norah’s audacious claim was somewhat embarrassing. Only Bernice reacted with excitement, saying, “Really? How can we assist? What should we do first? Norah, please tell us.”

Huntley responded sharply, “Dad’s condition has been assessed by many experts I brought in. Norah, it’s inappropriate to make light of such matters.”

Norah raised her eyebrows, her eyes twinkling. “I’m serious.”noveldrama

Realizing their skeptical looks, she added, “The words of the Supernatural Doctor are never in jest, correct?”

Caylee smiled gently and said, “Well, we’ve never managed to secure the Supernatural Doctor. Why bring her up now?”

Huntley exhaled with a hint of regret. “If only we could actually bring the Supernatural Doctor here, perhaps Dad could have a chance. But we’ve never succeeded in getting her to see him.”

Norah silently made an apology to them. She selected her patients whimsically. On days she felt generous, she might attend to a few. Otherwise, she typically disregarded requests, especially from Surella.

Bernice looked at Norah and said cautiously, “Norah is the Supernatural Doctor.”
