Flash Marriage: She becomes Mrs. CEO after the Failed Dowry Talk

Chapter 491: Donating Blood on the Qixi Festival

The grapefruit and sandalwood merged perfectly, eventually dissipating in the shadowy love.

The Seven Sisters Festival fell on a Tuesday.

Most of the VK employees are young people in their mid-twenties. As a considerate boss, Nora offered everyone a half-day paid leave to allow them to enjoy their dates.

She noticed Yvonne was also brimming with joy, and couldn’t help but wonder, "Yvonne, are you seeing someone recently?"

From what she recalled, there was never any sign of a man around Yvonne. Her appearance... somehow gave off an impression of indifference, maintaining a dignified demeanor at all times.

"I wouldn’t call it dating."

"It looks like there’s something going on. Be sure to let me know first if there’s good news!"

Gossip is always a girls’ thing, and though Nora was curious about the person, since Yvonne didn’t offer any details, she didn’t press further.

After all, everyone has their privacy.

Instead of pondering over someone else’s love life, it’s more fruitful to think about how to spend her own afternoon.

Everyone’s off on dates, leaving only a few behind in the building, and Nora happened to be one of them.

As she stewed in her worries, she received a call from the hospital.

"Is this Ms. Nora Northwood?"

A patient admitted to the hospital this morning urgently needed Rh-negative panda blood, and the blood bank was running low, seeking external assistance.

The last time, Nora had left her personal information at the hospital, which is why she received this call today.

She agreed over the phone and hurried to the hospital, thinking perhaps this patient might be someone who helped her the previous time!

At the hospital.

Nora saw an old friend she hadn’t seen for a while, Vincent Morgan.

"Mr. Morgan." She greeted him politely, but just as he was about to chat, the doctor whisked him away.

They waved hastily and brushed past each other.

Nora went to the blood donation room, watching as the tube drew blood little by little from her body.

Soon, 400 milliliters were collected.

The fresh blood bag still carried some warmth. The doctor arranged for her to rest in a general ward, and a nurse brought her a meal and candies.

Through the glass window, she saw Vincent’s figure flash by.

Nora wondered: Could it be Vincent’s family needing panda blood?

She didn’t dwell on it, adjusted her posture, and lay sideways on the hospital bed.

Nora took out her phone, refreshed her social media, finding everyone flaunting their love.

She took a photo of her bandaged arm and posted it with a couple of crying emojis.

Moments later, notifications started dinging incessantly.

Lily Sloan and others, along with a few friendly brands, were showering her with various concerned messages, leaving her both touched and amused.

So, Nora went through explaining to each of them that she was just there to donate blood.

After finally explaining it all, she deleted the photo from her feed.

The Sinclair Group.

Louis Hayes’ eyes widened as if he’d seen a ghost. He explained in despair, "Boss, it was just there, gone in mere seconds."

He clearly saw the big boss’s wife had gotten hurt, yet now it seemed unreachable.

The person opposite him remained expressionless, closed the file, and replied, "I know."

Louis knew that the couple’s relationship had been strained lately. He intended to help smooth things over, but even the heavens weren’t giving him a chance.
