“Cough! Cough!” He hacked two loud coughs.

Zephyr and Cordelia looked over in unison.

“Uh, have you heard?” Nicholas chuckled dryly, “The more PDA you show, the faster it dies off…”

“Shut up!” The husband and wife retorted in perfect timing.

Nicholas surrendered and clamped his mouth shut. What else could he do? They were a couple, and he was alone! If someone could help him now, he would not have to suffer the grand public display of affection here.

Cordelia sighed, shook her head, and went over to open the take-out box.

Cordelia’s gaze on him was rather hostile. The man had first sought fault with her husband and hurt Linda. She really wondered why they saved him.

Nicholas took a deep breath and grimaced at her as he held his bandaged hand up. “I can’t move.”

“What do you mean? You aren’t asking me to feed you, are you!?”

“I certainly wouldn’t dare ask that of you!” Nicholas beamed. “But if… If someone could take good care of me, like how you’re taking care of your husband, heh, I think I’d recover speedily!”

Cordelia caught what he meant immediately. He wanted to ask for Linda. It was just that, did he not remember what he had said when the two of them met again? He had said that he did not know Linda!
