Married a Secret Billionaire novel Chapter 99

“Oh, so you’re Dr. Stafford?” Linda quickly retracted her hand that was still shaking his. “Cordelia and Marcus’ matchmaker?”

Seth did not notice the subtle change of emotion in her eyes. Not only that, but he had been under the impression that he had done a great job in matchmaking the couple—he had made a beautiful marriage happen.

He tidied his coat. With a little pride in his voice, he looked at her with a smile. “It’s me. Ha, I didn’t help much. They’re destined to be together. I merely—”

“You didn’t help?” Linda interrupted him and raised her voice. “You sure are humble, Dr. Stafford!”

Seth frowned upon realizing something was off about her.

“Dr. Stafford, you’re a doctor! Saving lives is your job, right? Why do I feel like you’re like those nosy ladies who have nothing to do, trying to matchmake everyone they know?

“Forget that you were matchmaking... You should’ve gotten her a good man!” Linda could not help but vent her spleen. “You got Cordelia to marry Marcus. Weren’t you dragging her into trouble to be doing that?!”

“Hey…” It was Seth’s first time being blamed like that. He could not help but widen his eyes.

“What are you talking about?” He fought back. “The marriage had been set between the two families from the beginning. It was just that the Grists waned. However, one shouldn’t go back on their word, right? They couldn’t go back on the marriage agreement just because his family is now poor!”

“Ha, you think being poor is the only thing?” Linda rolled her eyes. “He has a criminal record! He was in prison before! How could a pure girl like Cordelia be happy to be marrying such a man?”

“Then why don’t you ask Cordelia if she’s happy or not?”

Seth smirked, and a tinge of pride surfaced on his face.

Linda’s cheeks were flushing and turning pale. She was pissed.

“Miss, on the first day at medical school, my teacher taught me that the biggest taboo of a doctor is to treat the head when the head aches and treat the foot when the foot hurts. We have to be thorough when analyzing the patient’s medical record and illness. Sometimes, when something is wrong with their liver, we’ll also get doctors from hematology for the consultation!”
