At that moment, Linda and Marcus were the only ones left in the room. The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.

Marcus looked calm. He looked at her with a cryptic smile in his eyes, seemingly waiting for her to say something.

Marcus nodded. He had seen that coming.

“Mm-hmm.” He smirked. “I’m all ears.”

Now that he was staring with slight suppression, Linda was feeling uncomfortable.

“When we came in, there was a nurse who happened to leave. Was she here to dress you?”

Marcus was surprised. He instantly guessed what she wanted to ask.

“Yes, why?”

Linda took a deep breath in. “Mr. Grist, Cordelia is honest and soft, but she’s definitely not a pushover! You should think about this carefully. Judging by your past, you’re lucky to marry a woman like Cordelia!”
