“I’m a man too. I know what he’s thinking now.” Zephyr’s voice was husky and affectionate. “The person he should want to see the most right now should be the woman he loves.”

Cordelia answered in hesitation, “But, is it appropriate to ask Linda to come to take care of him?

“This is still Seth’s clinic. His relationship with Linda isn’t official, but all of us think they’re an item.

“Asking Linda here and letting Seth see her and Nicholas… He’d be upset!”

Zephyr paused and smiled at her. He acknowledged that she was reasonable because he had thought about the same problem. However, it was also obvious who Linda was still unable to forget.

Since Seth could not have her, he had to face reality. It was better to suffer from the blow now than later when he was even deeper into it.

“So what should we do about this now?”

“Hmm…” Cordelia mulled over it and said, “Why don’t the two of us take care of him first? I’ll slowly let Linda know when he has recovered a little more and get her here?”

“Sure.” He smiled. “We’ll do what you say.”
