It was surprising that Cordelia could get used to living with such a man!

Linda frowned slightly. At that moment, Cordelia happened to return. She was holding a bouquet of flowers.

"I saw this at a florist next to the car park." She smiled brightly. "The ward will only look lively with some flowers. I can't believe I was so busy before that I only remembered to buy flowers now!" She found a glass bottle and put the flowers in. She then placed it at the window.

Marcus' eyes instantly became gentle as soon as he saw her, and he held her tiny hand softly.

Linda found an excuse and left immediately. She did not want to be a mega third-wheel there!

Cordelia blushed. She retracted her hand and stared at him with her bright eyes.

"You didn't shower yesterday, right? Let me wipe you."

She turned around and left right away. She soon came back with a pail of hot water.

She was the one who had been wiping Marcus throughout his stay in the hospital. She twisted the hot towel and lifted his clothes carefully. The bruises had subsided a little, but they still looked terrifying. Cordelia felt her chest clutched. She tried her best to avoid the wounds as she wiped him in all seriousness.

She took a quick peek at him and looked away.

Marcus grabbed her hand, revealing a grin on his face. They had been married for so long, so he knew what she was thinking about.

She felt rather embarrassed, and her cheeks were burning. She wanted to retract her hand, but it was too late.

The man pulled her over, and she fell into his embrace directly.

"Stop it..." She struggled. "You're still hurt!"

His warm breath drew near her ear, and his voice was deep. "This is nothing. It won't be a bother."

"We still can't do it." Cordelia glanced at him, pissed. "They said it'll take 100 days to recover from your injury! It's better to be careful."

"But... How do I solve this personal issue that I have?"

Cordelia looked helpless. She was between tears and laughter.

Marcus would always have a poker face, and he was scarily cold to everyone. Sometimes, he looked so tense that nobody dared to go close to him. However, she was the only one who could see the burning desire in his eyes.

She smiled, caressed his chiseled face softly, and gave him a kiss on the cheek.

"That's it?" Marcus was clearly unsatisfied.

"Stop it!" She said in all seriousness. "We're in the hospital!"

...

Linda walked back and forth at the hospital door. She was bored to death.

Suddenly, someone behind came to talk to her.

She was stunned. She saw a tall and thin doctor when she snapped her head back. He had a clean face and was elegant. He gave her a warm smile. She smiled back courteously and shook his hand.

"I'm Seth Stafford." He introduced himself. "Marcus' attending physician."

Linda came to her senses.

'Is this Seth the one that Cordelia has mentioned a few times? The doctor who set her up with Marcus?'
