A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 1002
To be honest, Patrick was ready for the worst-case scenario when he left with Sean.John did save Cordy with his life, and if he asked, there was every chance Cordy would break down and throw herself into his arms.Thus, Patrick was surprised Cordy was so determined to reject John. In fact, she refused to listen to any of John's explanations and remained determined to reject his advances even after he admitted that he had regained his memories. Did she not love him anymore? Or did she love him too much and was afraid to get hurt again?At the same time, Cordy wiped away her tears ever so subtly.There was just no controlling it when your heart hurt so much.However, she will slowly change that from now on, and slowly forget how she felt towards John Levine."I'm sorry," she suddenly told Patrick.Patrick's heart skipped an anxious beat.She obviously rejected John just now, but was she already regretting it?Did that mean his happiness only lasted for…minutes?He stared at

Patrick had more to say, but then Cordy deliberately provoked him, "So, you want John to have me instead? Is that it?"Patrick promptly snapped in agitation. "No! Of course not!"Cordy smiled—she certainly understood that.However, Patrick was just too good to her. He was always putting her first before all else, and was especially worried that she would be hurt."I want to be with you forever," Patrick said as he reached out, clearly unable to resist taking her hand. However, perhaps embarrassed for some reason or another, he couldn’t actually touch her. Cordy actually found that she couldn’t stand it. Was he embarrassed?Come to think of it, it was understandable since this was the first time he was dating a woman.As such, Cordy reached out to take his hand instead.Patrick looked at her in surprise; the next instant, he took her dainty hand firmly in his and didn’t let go, as if afraid someone would take her away.At that, Sean left quietly—he was a third wheel, anyway.

Sean had to wonder—should he trust John? What if this was all just a trap? There was no question that John had the strength to destroy the Cranstons!Nonetheless, John made his intentions clear right then and there. "Nana’s merely a chess piece. The Lynds would never consider themselves as one of them without her. If I wasn’t amongst them, I wouldn't have leverage for a partnership…"He trailed off for a moment as he saw Sean raising a brow, and said, "Fine. I'll admit, it didn’t cross my mind before that I should work with you. I was intent on destroying the Lynds as I did with the Stuarts with my own strength. However, I didn’t know that the Lynds were your enemies at first. To top it off, they were your relatives. I'd never have partnered with you under such circumstances, let alone make Cordy hate me because I messed with the Lynds.""So you're pleased that they moved against us," Sean said, appearing composed but ruffled inside.John was going to destroy the Lynds on his own
A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 1005
John said solemnly, "That has nothing to do with my motivation to protect Cordy."Sean pursed his lips, unable to say anything against that.John then added, "Take your time to consider…""There's no need," Sean said. "We're partners now."He didn’t need further reason either, since John was right.If John really wanted to work with the Lynds to destroy the Cranstons, the Cranstons wouldn’t remain unscathed. And Sean would never doubt John's strength. "Alright. I'll contact you when there's any new developments," John said."You mean, I shouldn't come to you?" Sean asked."Ideally, no.""Alright.""Also, I have a request," John added."Tell me.""Arrange for one of yours so that he can stay close to me," John said. "The Lynds are keeping a close eye on me, and Nana is as smart as she is sharp—she’d notice something if I'm unaware. As such, I need protection and someone who can pass information for me under the Lynds' noses.""Arranging for an insider in the Lynd family?

Jay said solemnly, "Playing with our daughter isn’t self-indulgent.”"But you're putting off work. If I remember correctly, that film you're going to direct was supposed to be next month," Zoe told him. "And I overheard you calling your assistant to delay it another month."While Jay was left speechless, Zoe muttered, "I just don't want to end up on the streets with you.""Well, even if I stop working right now, I'd still have enough wealth to last us several lifetimes," Jay replied.‘Bragging, are we?’ Zoe thought to herself.Zoe was rendered speechless for a moment, but then she quickly said, "You should always strive to be better instead of goofing off. You'd waste all the money you have if you gave in to self-indulgent tendencies.""I'm not. Also, the filming was delayed for a month only because the female lead will only be free in a month," John quickly explained, genuinely worried Zoe would find any reason to get sick of him."Mommy," Yelena couldn’t help but say. "Can’t y

Zoe got upset immediately. "Jay Parker! You kept telling me before that I'm not fat, but now, you're telling me to adhere to the strict discipline of an actress?!" Men!What they see is all they care about!"No, you just shouldn't eat too much sweet food, or you'd get cavities."Zoe was speechless. Was she a child to him?! He should be telling that to his daughter instead!Feeling petty, Zoe snatched her ice cream back from Jay, chomping down on it when she was just taking small, careful bites before.Although she was telling herself not to eat too much before, she liked rebelling against Jay more.Calling her fat? Did he know how terrible it was to be an actress?She had to restrain herself even though there was so much she wanted to eat, and would always feel guilty if she managed to encourage herself into taking one extra bite.But not only was he refusing to comfort her… He had to mock her, too!Nonetheless, Zoe winced immediately from brain freeze after she took a large

Zoe stared at the ice cream she was holding, and wondered if she should finish it.That was when she suddenly remembered Jay kissing her, as well as the touch of his lips…She immediately threw the ice cream into the trash can.That devious man! He was doing everything he could just to stop her from finishing that ice cream!She quickly ran after Jay and Yelena, joining them as they queued up for the Ferris wheel. She never noticed someone taking photos of her from a distance.-They queued for a long while until it was finally their turn on the Ferris wheel. Yelena really liked it, constantly getting excited whenever the Ferris wheel rose into the air.It was no exception this time as she beamed cheek to cheek, leaning against the glass window of the Ferris wheel."Don't lean on the window, Yelena," Zoe told Yelena. "It looks dangerous even from where I'm sitting."Yelena pouted, clearly refusing to listen.In fact, she wasn’t moving an inch.The brat had been getting ful

Zoe wasn’t trying to provoke Jay or scorning him, but…Fine, she could admit that it hurt her to see how difficult life was for Jay these days. It was why she blurted out such thoughtless words.And the look on Jay's face now, she felt like she had wounded him again."I mean…” she went on awkwardly. “Don't get me wrong, I just think…" Even as she quickly tried to explain, she fumbled her words once again—which she seemed to do every time the situation became tense. "The doctors told me that chances of recovery are very low. I've tried physiotherapy before as well, but the effect wasn’t obvious," Jay said calmly, his emotions inscrutable.But whatever the case may be, he seemed really wounded.Before Zoe could say more, Jay had Yelena sit on his lap, and steered his wheelchair ahead.Zoe watched as he left, feeling so guilty she could die.-They only had a simple lunch after spending the day at the amusement park. Moreover, Yelena was too energetic and never ate much as she

Soon, another nurse emerged from the delivery room with a small bundle. "Is the mother's family here?""Yes!" John exclaimed loudly."The delivery was successful," the nurse said. "The baby weighs eight pounds—""How is she?" John asked in agitation, not caring about the child."She's fine. The doctor is just helping her clean up and she'll be out soon," the nurse replied.As John breathed a sigh of relief, the nurse reminded him, "Aren't you the father? Here's your child."John took the baby off her arms, staring at her for a moment as the others flocked around him. "Oh, she's so fair!" Zoe could not help exclaiming. "That's the most beautiful baby I've ever seen.""Are you saying that your son's ugly?" Bob teased."To be honest, yeah," Zoe replied without thinking.Jay cleared his throat—even if it was a subjective opinion, it still hurt to have his own baby called ugly."Let me carry her," Zoe volunteered just then, and John did not hesitate to hand her his baby.As Zoe

"What?!" Zoe exclaimed in shock.Beside them, John's face fell despite being usually stoic.Still, even before anyone could react, he scooped Cordy up in his arms and left.Zoe did not hesitate to follow, but Jay reminded her, "We're the hosts, Zoe.""Don't care." Zoe was completely unconcerned. "Ask my mom and your sister to handle the guests. I'm going with Cordy!"Jay hesitated for a moment before deciding to follow since there was no reasoning with Zoe.Sam and Quinn also realized that something was out of place.As they pulled away reluctantly, Bob shouted from below, "If you're done kissing, we're going to the hospital! Cordy's going into labor!"Quinn hurried after them as soon as she hurt, but Sam caught her. "Slow down. We can catch up."In fact, most of the guests were leaving as well—it was as if the banquet for Zoe's son was actually intended for everyone else.The poor boy was certainly unlucky to have such unreliable parents!-As everyone rushed to the hospit

"I'm swelling from my pregnancy," Quinn explained. "It's not your fault."Sam was left staring at her for a while before asking, "So, what should I do?""I'll put it on when I slim down.""Oh." Sam was a little disappointed, since he had always dreamed of having her put on the ring he had custom made.But this was fine—they had all the time they needed, and the most important thing for him is that Quinn was marrying him!He rose to his feet just then, and everyone was cheering as soon as he did. "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"Quinn blushed right then, and Sam could see that she was embarrassed.He did not want to make things awkward for her, even if he was quite eager at the moment.Heaven knows how much he missed that night's drunken fumble they had. In fact, during the times he remembered it in dreams, he had to wash his pants when he woke up.Still, just as he took Quinn's hand and started to leave, he felt a softness on his lips—Quinn was kissing him! Sam's heart pounded thunderous

Everyone waited patiently for the final outcome.Quinn's eyes were welling up with tears, threatening to gush if she so much as blinked.She did her best to hold back her tears—to be strong!Sam pursed his lips in turn, his Adam's apple bobbing.A long while passed, and it felt like a century for Quinn when she finally heard him say, "Yes."Quinn's tears started falling in happiness as Sam declared loudly, "I'll marry you, Quinn—it's what I've always wanted to do! I won't let you go even if you regret it eventually! You only get to be with me, and I'll never let any other man claim you! I'll become very overbearing… eventually!""I won't regret it," Quinn said, determined.She certainly would not regret marrying him!Zoe walked up to them with perfect timing just then, and Sam did a double take.He finally remembered that Zoe was the host of this luncheon and was going to leave with Quinn when Zoe whipped out a small red velvet box."You know what's in here, don't you?" Zoe a

However, Sam had already pushed Quinn away before she could tell him. But even if he did not love her or did not want to be with her, she would never stay with Ryan.She had been disappointed in Sam, wondering why he would give up so easily.Was she that unimportant to him?Therefore, if it were not for Zoe and Cordy showing her that video or telling her so much, she would never have known that he loved her for years…Sam's heart ached even as he looked into Quinn's tearful eyes.He reached out a hand, but soon withdrew it—would he not burden her?Even so, it hurt to restrain himself as he watched her, and he was actually getting the feeling that Quinn loved him…But she already had Ryan's child…Well, he was fine with that, as long as the child was Quinn's.But would she not mind?"I will marry you, Sam," Quinn said slowly and clearly then. "Not because you're a good man, not because you prepared so much for me, and not because of how much you prepared for me, but because I

Everyone in the hall was staring at Sam and Quinn, while Quinn took center stage, staring fixedly at Sam.He stood in the middle of the crowd, watching her silently.She in turn felt fear that he would turn and leave, just as she did not know if she had the courage to stand before him again and to declare her feelings for him in front of so many others.Nonetheless, amid the deafening silence, Sam suddenly walked toward the stage.His pace was slow as if his feet were made of lead, but he was also unusually determined.Quinn's heart raced uncontrollably right then!Everyone else was watching them nervously, especially Cordy and Zoe, with the latter being especially concerned that the cowardly Sam would bail.Fortunately, he was a man who showed responsibility. He would not leave Quinn alone and embarrassed.Hence, as everyone looked on, Sam stood before Quinn, his gaze flickering as their eyes met.He gulped ever so slightly, his emotions clearly ruffled even as he did his bes

The guests were encouraging, loudly asking, "Why?!""Because of a woman," Sam's recording replied."Who is it?""Quinn Summer," the Sam on the screen said slowly and clearly, leaving the Sam who was in the hall stunned.What the hell?! That was the proposal video he prepared before! Why did it show up here? Did Zoe make a mistake?!He knew it—leave anything to Zoe, and she would mess it up!He started striding toward the stage, intent on stopping the recording, when John and Bob intercepted him with a look of utter guilt while the recording continued. "Quinn is my wife, and we've been married for years, but I've never really loved her—not because I don't, but because I'm afraid to. I feel too insignificant in comparison to the one she loves, so I'd always hurt her… painfully and childishly. I regret that so much now, Quinn. How could I have abandoned you for so long because of my own jealousy? I'd rather hold you in my sleep every night, but my damned pride denied me that for y

At the banquet hall, Jay and Zoe were thanking their guests with their children in their arms.Then, Zoe announced excitedly, "Please give my best friend, who is also my son's godmother, a warm applause as she comes on stage!"Sam stood at a corner of the hall, watching as Quinn walked up the stage, only realizing just then that her belly was clearly swelling despite her baggy clothes.Time flies—he had not left that long ago, but she and Ryan already had a child.She was not worried about giving him a stroke, was she?He watched as Quinn took the mic and looked around below searching, seemingly searching.After a while, he thought she was looking at him, but by the time he looked up, she had already turned away.Maybe she was looking for Ryan before remembering that Ryan was not there?Nonetheless, Quinn spoke into the mic, saying, "I'm honored to be chosen as the godmother to Zoe's son, and she's been saying he'd be engaged to my child if it's a girl. I already love my godson

As their eyes met, Sam turned frantic and averted his. "Of course.""Really?" Quinn asked."Would I lie to you?" Sam asked a little grumpily."And you didn't bring her back?" Quinn asked."I'm on a schedule, and it'd be taxing for her if I bought her along," Sam said, making things up as he went along. "I'll bring her along when things are less busy.""Is she pretty?" Quinn pressed."What, have I ever picked an ugly one?" Sam snorted smugly. "You know I prefer curvaceous types, and there are plenty of those abroad.""Do you have a photo?"Sam was silent for a while and eventually said, "Yeah.""Can I see it?""What, does she have to pass your assessment?""Just curious about the girl who can tempt you to settle down," Quinn replied. "You'd be humbled." Sam hastily came up with an excuse."I won't," Quinn said, determined."You'll see her when I bring her home." Sam refused nonetheless."I would like to see a photo now.""No, she's not that photogenic. It'd be slander a
