It was a good kind of a relief to Nolan that Janna Wu didn't need to work to pay her bills.  She was extraordinarily privileged because of the state income that she got from being a member of a royal family.  Nolan knew that she did occasionally leave to represent the family at functions a couple times a months, but he liked that she kept the affair as low as possible.  No one knew that she was anything more than a eccentric damn good surgeon. The mysterious reason why her lights never went out was just glossed over. It was obviously due to this income as to why she had kept taking on patients who didn't have insurance or straight couldn't afford a doctor at all.  

The business acumen was irrelevant when she didn't need it.  It did make him question for a bit whether to abandon his quest for her heart or keep going, but he had come too far to turn back now.  Nolan had to soldier on.
