All Chapters of Crossing Paths With Love Again: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

A cheerful voice called out as a middle-aged woman in a long linen dress appeared at the table.The only person who would call Connor that way would be his mother."Hello, Mrs. Sloane. I'm Freya, a student under Professor Sloane."Connor's mother's eyes lit up as she took Freya's hands. "Oh, wonderful! You're still a student? Such a shame!"Freya found it slightly hard to keep up with Conner's mother's unpredictable thinking."Mom, Mom…" Connor called her twice, trying to draw his mother's attention. "She's not my student anymore. She's my colleague.""What? She's not even your girlfriend?" His mother sounded disappointed. "You truly need to step up your game!""Mom, we have work matters to discuss. Could you please give us some space?" Connor suggested."No way! I'll step in if you can't make it work. I want this lovely daughter-in-law. She's adorable!" She held Freya's hand and showed no intention of leaving the room."Dad, your wife…" His mother vanished in a flash before h

Freya trailed closely behind Daniel. She could sense his low spirits and thought he might have encountered some challenges at work.She assumed he had something to do back home when he offered to pick her up earlier. However, he just came upstairs to escort her down. She didn't see him doing other things.He had been staring intently at her during dinner, occasionally placing food on her plate without saying anything.His unusual behavior left her feeling uneasy."You—""Mr. Talbot." A deep voice interrupted the question she had been about to ask.Daniel shook the man's hand. "Mr. Stone."Marcus Stone's gaze shifted to Freya. "No wonder you declined my dinner invitation. I see you had plans with your lovely sister."Daniel extended his hand toward Freya. She quietly stepped forward. Her hand was enveloped in his large hand as he introduced her to Marcus, "This is my wife, Freya."She offered a polite smile and a nod by way of greeting.Marcus was slightly shorter than Daniel.

Three new doctors were joining the department, including Freya. The other two were men.One of them was Theo Brightwell, who had transferred from another hospital. The other was Dylan Brooks, who was a fresh graduate like Freya.There were seven doctors in the department now, including the department heads who were not involved in night shifts. Freya was assigned to cover the night shift with Theo as she had some prior experience during her internship in the department.Monday mornings were always busy. After the department heads completed the rounds, Freya found herself without assigned patients. She had no pending matters to deal with right now. Therefore, she stationed herself by the medical records cabinet, reviewing patients' files to familiarize herself with their conditions and keep track of the key information.The hospital's interns came and went in waves. Connor not only had to tend to patients but also had to supervise the interns.Although she shared a meal with Connor

Freya's first day of work flew by just like that.She finished up her handover notes and dropped by to check on Ben again. After informing him to contact Lucas, who was on duty, if there was anything urgent, she got off work.Daniel had texted her over ten minutes ago and said that he was waiting for her at the basement parking lot.Freya took the elevator down to level B1. As soon as the elevator door opened, she saw him immediately. He had been standing right in front of the elevator.She was stunned when she walked out of the elevator.Daniel explained, "My car was parked somewhere farther away, so I was worried you might not be able to find it."After that, he naturally reached for Freya's hand. She tried to remove it from his grip, but he just held her hand tighter.Daniel turned around and looked at her, confused, "What's wrong?"Freya looked around and noticed cars passing by. She figured they should talk once they were back and instead replied, "It's nothing. Let's head

Freya's and Daniel's lives continued quietly. As time passed, their relationship began to change in subtle ways.Daniel was waiting for Freya to get off work outside the hospital as usual. As soon as she got in, she noticed a box of sweets and a wedding invitation on the seat."Can I have some of those sweets?" she asked, glancing at him with hopeful eyes."Go ahead—they're all for you." Daniel glanced at her before continuing to drive. "I need you to come with me to a wedding this Saturday.""Do we have to go?" Freya asked reluctantly. She wasn't big on overly crowded events as they always made her feel out of place and alone.Besides, her new novel had just been signed. She was hoping to get some serious writing done during the weekend.Daniel replied, "We don't have to go if you don't feel like going. I'll just get Michael to deliver the wedding gift instead."Freya felt relieved hearing it as she unwrapped a chocolate and popped it into her mouth. As it tasted good, she got
