Seth had recognized her as well, and a smile broke across his face.
“You’re Yelena, right? Wow, what a coincidence. What brought you here?”
Cordelia lowered her head and chuckled.
Seth was the one who had matched her and Marcus. However, he did not know that she had married
Marcus on behalf of her sister.
“I’m Cordelia.” She smiled and looked at him, “This is a long story. I’ll explain it to you afterward.“
Seth was momentarily stunned and then grinned, “No matter if you’re Yelena or Cordelia, both of you
come from the Jenners. I’m sure I didn’t fail my job as the matchmaker.
“By the way, how are you and Marcus doing? After you moved to Jangasas, I went to further my
studies at the medical school in Centrolis. It has been some time since we last saw each other!”
“We’re doing fine,” Cordelia replied gently. “Why don’t you come to my house after work? It has been
some time since Marcus saw you. I’ll make a few dishes, and you two can talk.”
“I don’t think I can…” Seth waved his hand. “See. I still have a lot of things to do.”
Suddenly, he recalled the scene that happened in the ward earlier.
“By the way, is that patient your mother?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCordelia lowered her head and nodded.
Seth frowned. Although he did not know what had happened, he could understand her. After all, if he
had a mother like Xyla, he would also be very sad. He looked at Cordelia and comforted her, “Don’t
worry. I’ll help you to take care of your mother.”
“Thank you.” It was because of him that they were able to bring her mother under control, so she was
very grateful to him.
“Dr. Stafford, are you one of the doctors here?”
“Nope,” Seth replied with a smile. “I majored in surgery. Psychiatry is only my minor. I’m just here to
learn more, and I’ll leave when my advanced training period is over.”
“I see.”
“But I have opened a clinic in the south of the city. If you need anything, I can still help you guys!” Seth
said passionately as he scratched his head. “But as a doctor, I hope you guys won’t need my help, so
don’t come to me unless it’s absolutely necessary!”
Cordelia chuckled.
Suddenly, she remembered that Marcus was now working as a boxing coach, so there was no
guarantee when he would get hurt. What’s more, he needed to participate in matches from time to time,
so they really needed someone like Seth around them.
After all, they knew Seth very well. When they were in the village, he was one of Marcus’ best friends
too.
Therefore, Cordelia would feel much more secure with him being their doctor.
“Dr. Stafford, honestly…” She looked at him. “I do have something that needs your help.”
…
The match would be held two nights later.
Marcus was going up against a three-time champion from Jangasas city-level competition. However,
Marcus did not treat him seriously since he was nothing compared to his achievements in the past.
This was the first time Cordelia had come to a place like this. The shouting audience, the electrifying
atmosphere, and the fighters who fought like beasts in the ring made Cordelia’s heart pump with
excitement.
Cordelia and Linda were sitting at the center. This was the spot that would have a full view of the ring.
“Oh my, this is my first time coming to watch a match on-site!” Even though the air conditioner was on,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthe enthusiastic environment still made Linda sweat profusely as she kept fanning herself with the fan
in her hands.
She was even more excited than Cordelia. She had been looking here and there ever since she
stepped into the venue, and she nearly screamed when she saw those topless, muscular men.
“Linda, calm down,” said Cordelia. “I won’t bring you here again if you don’t behave yourself.”
“Are you my friend or not, Lia?” Linda said as she pinched Cordelia. “How can you only bring me in
now when your husband has such a great resource? Tell me honestly, do you want to claim it all for
yourself?”
“I don’t know what you are talking about.” Cordelia’s face turned red. She spun around, refusing to talk
to Linda.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know you don’t like any men other than your husband,” said Linda. “Hah, but
honestly, although I didn’t like your husband in the past, it’s all thanks to him that I have this kind of
opportunity to come in here. Besides—”
She suddenly stopped speaking and looked into the distance.
When Cordelia did not hear her voice, she turned her head around and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Look over there!” Linda nudged her chin. “What is he doing here? Did you invite him too?”
