The butler next to Noah told him, "Sir, Mr. Carter Irwin is the Irwin heir in Southeast Aciatic. The Irwins are known for their achievements in the medical and pharmaceutical fields. Not just in Southeast Aciatic, their professionalism and expertise are also among the best in the world."
Noah was silent for a moment before he recalled abruptly. "Oh, I know! T-The medical kit at home! A few bottles of the commonly used medicine have Irwin Pharmaceuticals written on them!"
"That's the one!"
Noah was elated as he thought that he had found a savior and held Cordelia's hand. "Cordelia, c-can your brother really help Hannah? Uh… Hannah was always picking fights with you in the past. I'll apologize to you for her, okay?"
Noah stood up straight and bowed deeply as he spoke.
When the man fell from the horse back then, his head was not the only part injured. His nerves were damaged too, and he twitched whenever he spoke.
Cordelia suddenly felt a pinch in her heart upon seeing how panicky he was and sympathized with him.
There was no wrong in loving a person. What was wrong was that the person did not even deserve his love.
"Uncle Noah, don't worry," Cordelia said softly. "Doctors have the heart to save people. My brother's an outstanding doctor. He'll check Aunt Hannah properly."
"Hehe, hehe…" Noah giggled happily.
When Zephyr and Cordelia met eyes, they were both sad.
The car drove smoothly on the way back. After the eventful night, the darkness in the sky slowly gave way to the first sliver of golden.
Cordelia sat in the backseat with Zephyr, her head resting against his shoulder. He hugged her gently.
"Sleep if you want. I'll wake you up when we're home."
Cordelia shook her head as she was not quite sleepy. She was miserable once she thought of Noah's naïve look.
Her voice was small. "Zephyr, what we're doing… is it right?"
