Cordelia was shocked that Rowan raised his voice. She put down her iPad and looked at him quietly.
“I-I mean…”
He could not give a reason for his behavior.
He wanted to say that Zephyr was alright, although he did not meet his standard of the perfect son-in-law. However, it seemed difficult to find someone who was better than him.
Nonetheless, he just did not like that guy, no matter what.
Given that he was Janine’s son…
His beloved daughter would suffer from having an evil mother-in-law like her!
“I mean, you’re still young.” Rowan looked at Cordelia in concern. “There are too many variables in young people. What if you find someone better after getting married so young?”
She smiled. “Nah, Zen is the best person for me!”
“That’s because you haven’t met many men!”
Rowan was shocked himself that he said that.
It felt as if he was transported 30 years back to the time when he heard the argument outside of Xyla’s house.
Her parents were screaming as they scolded her. “That’s because you haven’t met many men!”
Rowan’s face turned pale, and he was shaking a little.
“What’s wrong, Uncle Irwin?”
Cordelia called out to him, and only then did he snap back to his senses.
“Nothing…”
“Are you not feeling well?” Cordelia poured him a glass of hot water. “Go home if you’re not feeling well. The plan is very detailed. I’ll get the people to handle it.”
“Let me work on it a little more.” Rowan forced a smile.
He wanted to make this hospital perfect. Not only because it was his job as a doctor, but he also wanted to give it to his beloved daughter as a present.
“We have to be detailed in founding a hospital. We can’t be wary of all of the troubles that come with it!”
