Chapter 95 At the secretary‘s area. “Miss Naomi, you‘ll be working here.”
“Understood, thank you.”
Naomi looked over at where Anna was pointing.
What a coincidence. She was sitting in front of that coffee secretary. “If there‘s anything you don‘t understand, you can ask the others.” After Anna said that, she looked up and clapped her hands to get everyone‘s attention. “Everyone, listen up. From today onward, Naomi is one of the secretaries. She‘ll be like everyone else!”
Anna had placed particular emphasis on the last part: Naomi stood by the side and frowned slightly. There was nothing wrong with those words, but it felt somewhat strange. After that, Anna left the secretary‘s office, and Naomi went over to her workplace to tidy things up. She opened up the computer and logged into the social media software. Since it was the first time, all of the programs started to patch simultaneously. Suddenly, various things started to pop up, almost crashing the PC. Naomi hurriedly clicked each one away, setting everything up. She clicked on a Mensa study group, and a few messages popped up. There was a message from a Mensa Parent. [Tonight, Gin City‘s branch will have a gathering. It only happens once a year. Gin City‘s members should all attend.]
A reply from Mensa Whisperer came. (Wish, don‘t push it away this year. Let us see your face, alright?] Mensa Swordsman added, [Wish, that‘s right, everyone really wants to see you.] Naomi started at the screen, and her fingers stopped on the keyboard. Mensa was a group formed for high–IQ individuals. Everyone there would passionately discuss academics within the group.
She had gotten to know many people in that group in the past few years and made quite a lot of online friends.
However, she had never met anyone in person. With her identity as Wish no longer something she needed to hide, maybe it was time for her to meet everyone.

Naomi was deliberating the matter when a private chat box from Susan popped up. [What happened last night?) A sly smile emoticon accompanied it. Naomi shrugged helplessly as her fingers danced on the keyboard. She told Susan everything that had happened last night. After that, she angrily cursed at Susan in her following message. (What kind of rotten idea did you give me? I ended up falling into a trap of my own.] Susan was exasperated on the other end as well. [How could I have known that he had this up his sleeve?! However, since you’ve promised Old Mister Hough, hang in there. You‘re already his personal secretary. You‘ll have your chances in the future.]
After Susan wrote that, she sent another sly smile emoticon. Naomi bitterly grinned. “Personal secretary? What nonsense.”
Susan sent another message, reminding her to head to the school for a reexamination in the afternoon.
After that, Susan needed to film, so Naomi stopped chatting. Then, she looked at the old letter on the table.
It was what she had found the day before. It was her mother‘s handwritten medical notes. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
It was like a diary, recording all the problems and frustrations her mother had encountered in her youth. It had also recorded many medicines and experiments. Naomi took it and carefully read it. Then, she suddenly saw a line of words. ‘Doctors have to be benevolent. For the sake of there being no more pain in the world, I‘m willing to move forward with all my burdens. I‘ll never regret it!‘ AIt was just a few words, but they carried an intense resolve. Naomi felt her eyes burning, imagining her mother working hard in
that room night and day. Her mother had never complained, so how could she give up at the sight of a minor problem? It was just an old man. She would think of a way! Bang!
A thick folder was slammed onto Naomi‘s desk, interrupting her thoughts. Naomi looked up and saw the secretary who had made the coffee earlier. She had her arms crossed as she looked down at Naomi. “Naomi, there can be no idlers here. Before noon, tidy up these documents clearly and hand them to me!”
