"Nora."

Warren's voice was low. "I know you don't want to see me. But there are things I need to say in person."

"I didn't come to your room that night with any intention."

Nora looked up.

She hadn't meant to meet his eyes. But she did.

Black wool coat. Rimless glasses. The look behind them was fiercely restrained.

He gave a faint, bitter smile. "Do you remember the first time we met? The year you got into med school. You walked in behind Phoebe. White dress."

"A house full of strangers. You we

  • Flash Marriage with My Stoic Boss   Claiming His Wife

    The door had barely shut behind Nora when Adrian called his mother."Nora?""It's me."Vivian didn't bother hiding her disappointment. "What do you want?""Mom." Adrian's voice went flat. "No more stunts."If Vivian hadn't pulled that move, Leo wouldn't have scared Nora half to death. But Adrian kept that detail to himself.Vivian feigned innocence. "What stunt?"Adrian's tone stayed level. "I saw your chat with Nora. From half an hour ago."Vivian had called saying Nora wasn't reachable. That she needed Adrian to find her. Clearly not true.Caught. Vivian didn't flinch."Wait. You looked at Nora's chat history?!"She was thrilled. "You two are at the share-phones stage already?"What. Adrian was speechless.Vivian was already in her own world. "Good! That's good! But let me tell you something — grown man, checking his wife's phone? Controlling. Tacky. Don't be like your father."

  • Flash Marriage with My Stoic Boss   Almost Caught

    Zoe looked over. "Did you order room service?""No." Nora's side of the pool was closest to the door. She threw on a bathrobe and answered.Light slanted through the doorway.Adrian stood in the hall. One hand in his pocket. Tall enough to block the overhead light and cast Nora into shadow.She went wide-eyed. "What are you doing here?!"The shared rooms were all downstairs. But Leo Hart was around.Nora checked the hallway. The motion made the robe flap at the collar. Adrian's hand caught it without thinking. Pulled it closed."If you're free — my room?"Nora's brain short-circuited. "...Huh?"Adrian raised his phone. "Mom wants a video call. She's pushed it three times now.""...Oh." Nora exhaled. "Do I need to change? I can — if you need a minute—""Don't bother. Room's right next door."The resort was full of people wandering around in bathrobes. Nothing exposed. Nora skipped th

  • Flash Marriage with My Stoic Boss   Adrian Doesn't See This at Home?

    "Dr. Cross. What a coincidence."Quinn had spotted Adrian from across the grounds. Even in a crowd, he drew the eye. Same as back in school.Adrian was reading a student's thesis draft on his phone.He nodded at the greeting. Quick. Polite. Nora doubted he even registered who it was.Quinn didn't push. Not today.Across the garden, Nora had already pulled Zoe away."You're being ridiculous.""I'm not!" Zoe's voice was urgent. "What if she really doesn't give up?"Nora's brow tightened, just slightly. "She won't.""Every person who won't take no for an answer — somewhere, the other person gave them a reason to keep trying. I trust Adrian. And don't put this all on Dr. Sterling."Zoe had best-friend goggles on. That was natural.But one person didn't create a situation alone. Women survived in surgical departments through real competence. Quinn Sterling hadn't earned her place just through connections.

  • Flash Marriage with My Stoic Boss   Married People's Thrill

    Nathan's big mouth had done its damage.Zoe was unusually quiet the entire drive.The resort sprawled across thirty hectares. New development. Members-only. Quiet on a Sunday.Leo distributed room keys at the front desk. Married couples got doubles. Everyone else shared.Cardiac Surgery had no female doctors. Cardiology had exactly two — Zoe and Nora. Roommates by default.Then Leo hit Adrian's name. Paused.The room count was exact. If the chief took a single, someone else had to take a single. That would look like favoritism. But making the chief share was worse."I'll take the single," Adrian said. "Chief resident can have the upgrade. No one will object.""Also. Upgrade Dr. Ward and Dr. Harper to a suite. Public baths — not ideal for women."Leo blinked. He was a straightforward guy. Hadn't even thought of that. "Right. Sorry, Dr. Ward. My oversight.""It's fine." Nora shook her head.Adrian

  • Flash Marriage with My Stoic Boss   The Swimsuit

    The coffee table — a disaster zone last night — was spotless.Adrian was on the balcony. Working out.This man had a genuine compulsion about surfaces.Nora swallowed and managed a greeting. "Morning."She'd assumed Adrian would sleep at the hospital after the aortic dissection. Instead, he'd not only come home — he'd had the energy to exercise.She scooped up her laptop and notebooks in one arm. "What time did you finish? Figured you'd just crash in your office.""One-thirty." Adrian's brow creased slightly. "The on-call room is dirty. No important reason to sleep there."His breathing was rough from exertion. The sound had a gravelly texture.Nora nodded and turned toward the bedroom."Nora."Adrian stepped off the elliptical. Towel around his neck. Wiped sweat."Bring your things to the study. The desk is big enough for both of us. That coffee table is too low. Bad for your spine."

  • Flash Marriage with My Stoic Boss   Checking In

    "Do you think Quinn suspects something?"Zoe's heart had clenched when Nora recapped the consult room conversation. "That last line — what was she trying to say?"Nora shook her head. "I don't know. One step at a time."Not every ex-chief resident was eligible for attending promotion. It depended on openings. Nora was lucky — Cardiology had one slot. Applications opened after New Year.Zoe was already praying. "Please. No drama before your review."Nora kept her head level. "Focus on what's in front of me."In front of her: the department trip.Joint outing. Cardiac Surgery and Cardiology. Dr. Zhao's assistant and Dr. Vaughn's assistant organized. A group chat was created for headcount. The two senior directors were paying — not attending. Someone had to hold down the hospital in case of emergencies.The destination was set: a new hot spring resort outside the city.When the room roster went around, Nor

    The two nurses nearly jumped out of their skin. "Chief—""What are you talking about?" Adrian's tone was mild. Almost smiling.The nurses exchanged a look and shook their heads so fast it was a blur. "Nothing. Nothing at all."Adrian didn't press it. He walked away.The moment he was out of earshot

    Black Monday earned its name.Dr. Vaughn's clinic day. The department chair only saw patients one day a week — maybe a dozen slots. Every single case was a puzzle other hospitals couldn't solve. Every single one got admitted.With scheduled consults on top, Nora didn't sit down all day. Eating brea

    "A house, a car, commitment, and emotional support — what's next, you want the sun delivered on a platter?"Morning rounds were still a while off.With only Wesley in the office, Zoe Harper munched on her breakfast bun and scrolled through videos without a shred of restraint.Phone volume cranked t
