Cordelia was worried about Linda staying in the hospital alone. When she visited, she saw the latter feeding Nicholas.
The girl who had always been carefree and casual about people and things blew on each spoonful of soup carefully, afraid that it would burn Nicholas.
As for the man on the bed who looked like he could not take care of himself, who would have thought that he was up and active in physiotherapy just two days ago?
Cordelia chuckled and suddenly thought of her husband.
The man was unfriendly to outsiders, only steps away from writing “Approach with caution” on his face. However, he was glued to her once he saw her and could not be driven away. He would go darling this and honey that, that the birds on the trees were less noisy than him.
“You’re here.” A familiar voice came from behind her.
Cordelia turned back to see Seth walking over. He glanced at the hospital ward, and his expression dimmed for a moment. It was only briefly before a warm smile was back on his face.
“Mr. Thompson’s recovering well,” he said softly. “His stitches can be removed in two days.”
“Seth, thank you.” Cordelia was embarrassed. She had wanted to pair Linda up with him only for…
“Nothing to thank me about!” Seth chortled. “I’m a doctor. It’s my duty to save lives and treat the injured!”
“You’re a great doctor.” She knew that the compliment barely meant anything, but she genuinely did not know what to say other than that.
The man had personally treated his love rival and sent the girl he liked to the latter, yet no one was able to treat his wound. Seth’s situation was heartbreaking.
“Actually, I hope Linda gets together with the person she likes too.” Seth smiled and looked inside the ward again, his gaze longing.
“I can see it.” His voice was low-toned. “She only smiles genuinely when she’s with Nicholas.”
“Seth…” Cordelia had mixed feelings. “The heavens won’t be unfair to you when you’re so nice!”
