The Runaway Groom
Irene could not care less that her face was heavily bandaged.
She aligned and dashed into the Twinrise office building, heading straight for the front desk when she
spotted James stepping out.
“What are you doing here?” he asked.
“I’m looking for Isaac. Where is he?” Irene asked right away.
“He’s out to deal with something,” James said. “Is it urgent? Do you want me to call him back right
now?”
Irene thought about it, but gave up. “It’s fine.”
She decided that she could wait until Isaac came back, and she turned to leave.
When she returned to the hospital, she managed to make it back to her ward before Seth did his
rounds and he helped her change her bandages.
“Can I stay home to recover instead?” Irene asked just then.
Seth chuckled. “Do you hate the smell here? Aren’t you a doctor yourself?”
“No, it’s just cabin fever,” Irene said.
“Well, sure. Actually, if you don’t want to come here, I can visit your home to change your bandages
every other day too.”
Irene quickly rejected the offer-lsaac was already upset, and the misunderstanding would worsen if she
allowed Seth in her house.
“Forget it. I think I’ll just stay here!”
Seth smiled. “You seemed afraid of me visiting your house.”
“Nope.” Irene denied it, then asked, “By the way, why did you come back to Zidonia?”
Seth lowered his head to hide his reaction, but he then grinned. “Business is booming here. Can’t you
see that all our wards are full? They’re all young women too-it seems that they’re not content with their
looks.”
Irene was actually left in awe, but it was true-ladies did get self conscious about their looks these days,
neglecting their health instead, which was disagreeable for Irene.
“You don’t think that’s good? But if you think about it in another way, our hospital would be bankrupt if
not for them.” Seth chuckled. “Actually, I have a favor to ask… I don’t know if you’d help, though.”
“What is it?” Irene asked.
“You mentioned that you worked at Mead Clinic before, yes? I have a relative who has a heart
condition, and I was wondering if you could take a look.”
“But as you can see, I can’t work in this condition-it’s inconvenient. Also, isn’t it good that your relative
is in Minerva, since medical facilities there are as good as the stuff we have here?”
Irene was not rejecting him, but stating the truth.
Moreover, Jeff Cartman was their mutual friend, and Jeff could help as far as cardiovascular conditions
were concerned.
Seth smiled. “Actually, my relative is in the country. I just wanted a diagnosis, or is that a no?”
Irene quickly said, “No…”
“Oh? So what’s it actually gonna be?” Seth asked, almost pushy suddenly.
Irene did a double take, surprised by Seth’s attitude.
She pursed her lips. “You did a perfect job with my surgery, and I owe you that… How about I check on
your relative when I’m better?”
“Thank you,” Seth said.
Irene actually felt a little concerned just then.
It felt like Seth was making a deal-an equivalent exchange with her, as if all old sentiment was gone.
Though she smiled faintly without answering, her impression of Seth had changed.
He certainly was not mild and soft-spoken like his younger self, but time does change everything-
including people.
The thought relieved her when she understood that, and since Seth was not particularly important to
her, she did not pay him much heed.
After he changed her bandages, she reseted in the ward until around 3 PM before returning home, and
she waited for Isaac to come home in the evening to clear the air.
Even so, he never returned, and she got a bombshell instead!
