Love on the Fast Track

Chapter 1367:

“Can I inspect some of the important medical equipment we’re purchasing?” Norah asked.

She had seen these medical devices in international labs. She could attest that, aside from assembling these units, she had basic knowledge of their functionality.

“Of course.” Brigid nodded, and they proceeded to finalize the details of the medical equipment listed for purchase. Their straightforward and honest exchange left both feeling satisfied.

“I didn’t expect someone with your background to take on the role of a hospital director. Are you doing this for your track record? With your status, you hardly need to,” Brigid remarked.

“What’s wrong with being a hospital director? Isn’t it a respectable position?” Norah replied with a smile. “For me, managing a hospital is my goal, just as developing the Dixon Group is yours.”

In Norah’s mind, having a goal was what mattered, regardless of its size. She had big ambitions and would do everything to achieve them.

Norah was quite pleased with how the conversation had unfolded. During dinner with Sean that evening, she made it a point to commend Brigid.noveldrama

“Initially, I was concerned that the Dixon family might favor sons over daughters, potentially sidelining Brigid from major business roles. However, after spending time with her, I realized just how capable she truly is.”

Sean served some food for Norah, his voice soft. “Brigid’s talents are well acknowledged in our circle. I worry that once we both get busier, we’ll find even less time for meals like this.”

“Don’t worry, we’re both striving towards our goals. Susanna told me about the times you used to work non-stop.”

Sean explained, “When I first took over the company, I often felt overwhelmed. To keep any signs of weakness from showing to the outside world, I had to put in extra effort behind the scenes.”

Norah pictured that scenario and found it endearing. The usually stoic Sean working diligently in private was a charming image. Indeed, people saw his success but rarely the struggles that accompanied it.

“Sean, you’re already accomplishing so much.”

Upon hearing this, Sean’s eyes lit up with a smile, a spark of joy in his gaze. He cherished these moments of encouragement from Norah; they made him feel like he was her one true love.

This sentiment filled his heart, stirring a desire to hold her close. “Yes, to be truly worthy of you, I need to keep pushing myself.” Their smiles met, enveloping them in a profound warmth.

Both were deeply committed to their careers, which sometimes meant days apart. Naturally, Phillip was often tied up with Sean’s schedule, leaving Susanna feeling neglected.

Her frustration grew as her brother not only delayed his own marriage but also monopolized her boyfriend’s time, keeping them apart. She knew it was work-related, but she couldn’t help feeling frustrated.

Meanwhile, Joanna’s relationship with Duncan was flourishing, which left little time for her to see Susanna. The Andrews family knew about Duncan and were aware of the relationship but chose not to intervene. As long as Joanna was happy and Duncan was committed, his background was of no concern to them.
