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

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

Zoey followed Jay into the elevator.She wanted to speak several times, but gave up whenever she saw the stern look on Jay's face in the mirror within the elevator.Even if she had cleared the air—even if they were now in a proper relationship, there was still a huge distance between them.Arriving home, Zoe immediately picked up the strong scent of food.And she had been famished.They had been playing with Yelena the whole day without eating much, so eating something a little late would probably be fine."Welcome home," Clara greeted them warmly as she approached them. "Oh, Yelena’s asleep already?"She took Yelena off Jay's arms as if it was only natural, and Jay didn’t reject her in any way.In other words, Jay was only being distant towards Zoe.He then told Clara, "We've been playing the entire day. Let her sleep.""Okay." Clara always spoiled Yelena, and naturally couldn’t bear to wake her since she was sleeping so soundly. Carrying Yelena into her room, Clara said,
