A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 1078
Without another word, the man picked Cordy up and was prepared to leave. "I'm taking her to the hospital!""I'm going too," Patrick demanded, leaving the man in a dilemma."No." Cordy refused right then."Cordy…""I'll be right back.""Cordy!" Patrick's eyes were already red—it was obvious that Cordy did not want him to take the risk with her.He even knew that she was doing this for his own good.But he did not need that."I can take care of myself—""How you feel toward Sean is how I feel toward you. You won't allow him to risk himself, so do you think I would?" Patrick demanded as loudly as he could. "Am I that unworthy of your trust, or have you never considered me your ally?"Cordy was left stumped by Patrick's words, just as he continued sharply, "Did you think I'd keep on living if you died? Because I'm telling you—I sure won't!"Cordy pursed her lips, but she had to admit that it was out of her selfishness that she wanted to keep Patrick and was reluctant for him to

The doctor quickly called the cops, who rushed to the scene in less than ten minutes, for Cordy.The instant the kidnappers saw the cops, they realized they had been tricked.They promptly rushed into the emergency room, intent on taking Cordy away, but the cops had already whipped out their guns and cornered them against the wall.Seeing that the cops had restrained the men, Cordy promptly rushed out of the hospital, dragging Patrick along as she left."Miss?!"The cops called out to them, but they pretended not to hear as they left.Once out of the hospital, they immediately stopped a cab and told the cabbie, "To the airport, please.""Okay.""And please lend us your phone.""My friend and I were kidnapped and just made it out. I'm calling my family."The cabbie was skeptical, but he handed his phone to Cordy anyway.Cordy promptly called Richard. "Hello Dicky?""Mommy," the boy sounded like he was on the verge of tears. "Where have you been? Are you in danger?"After al

"I'm very sure," Patrick replied.Cordy did not say anything else at that.After all, she once considered dying with a certain someone before and could therefore empathize with Patrick.After over two hours, they arrived, and Cordy called Sean immediately after she and Patrick disembarked from their flight. "Where are you right now?"Sean sighed ever so faintly. "You're back in the capital?""Yeah," Cordy replied with composure."I'm near Lynd Manor."Cordy's heart skipped a beat—she actually anticipated Sean to be on the move, but it still left her heart pounding that he actually went ahead.It was much faster than she planned, since she always believed that they should at least prepare for months—even years—just to be safe.Doing it in a matter of days was just out of the question.Was Sean really that desperate?"I'll be right over." Cordy did not ask questions over the phone—she had to go with the plan unconditionally now that Sean made his move.Cordy and Patrick heade

Sean replied, "John was the one who told me not to tell you."Cordy simply held his gaze, so he added, "You know his misgivings. He didn't want to worry you."Cordy still did not reply, and the air between them was left in stiff, awkward silence.Suddenly, she asked calmly, "What's the situation now?"It was as if everything John did would not affect her at all, and the current situation concerned her more."He must have obtained evidence of the Lynds' crimes over the years, but they caught on as soon as he got it," Sean replied. "He's in their custody right now, and I only received a text from him.""What text?" Cordy asked."See for yourself," Sean said and handed Cordy his phone.Cordy stared at the photo, which obviously showed the location where he kept the documents.But that also meant his chances were not optimistic.Cordy and Patrick were silent for a long while after seeing the photo.In the latter's case, he felt depressed in a way he could not describe.Still, h

Keith was glaring at John murderously, as if he could murder John at the next instant.However, John never expected to escape unscathed after he had done what he did.That being said, the Lynds' influence in organized crime was far beyond what he imagined—he just presumed that the family had connections with certain groups, and it was not after he procured that document that he found out the extent of their horrific power!Even the Cranstons—the so-called most powerful family in the nation—would never win against that. The Lynds would crush them sooner or later!That was why he was ready for the worst when he chose to turn around, and his only wish was for Sean to retrieve the document before the Lynds did… otherwise, the Lynds just might dig six feet under like Keith promised and find it before long.He closed his eyes, genuinely giving up on struggling—he had done his best, and the rest was up to fate.Seeing that John remained unmoved, the murder in Keith's glare became even m

John shook his head ever so slightly. The Lynds would never trust him, let alone allow a ticking time bomb to leave.In fact, they would kill him whether he talked—sooner if he did. "I promise you with my life, Lucas." Nana persisted nonetheless. "Just tell us where the documents are, and I can take you away with me. We'll leave this place forever and never come back!""That's impossible," John said feebly, just as he did not want to drag Nana down with him.He could tell that Nana would have no place in the family because of this either. In fact, if the Lynds were feeling a little less forgiving, she would be dealt with the same way he was. In fact, that was why he returned to Nana's room when he realized he had nowhere to run. Most importantly, he could make it clear to the Lynds that Nana was innocent, that she chose to side with her family instead of him.Even if they wanted to fault her, they would have to take that into consideration and be lenient toward Nana."This m

As Nana quietly heaved a sigh of relief, the bodyguard asked respectfully, "Should we wake him, Ms. Lynd?"Nana was hesitant, but her father did give her just two hours. If she let John sleep now, Keith would kill him when he woke up."Yeah," she replied.The bodyguard nodded, and turned to gesture at one of his boys, who picked up a bucket of water and splashed it down his head.John was jolted awake the instant he was splashed, the anguish causing him to grunt without control.Nana frowned—John did not hurt that much even when she whipped him.And for an instant, she thought he might die from sheer pain."It's concentrated saltwater," the bodyguard explained, probably noticing Nana's confusion.Nana wheeled on him and snapped, "Saltwater? Are you crazy?!"John was covered in wounds, and now splashed with saltwater… she was scared to imagine how much that would hurt!"That's the quickest way to wake him," the bodyguard replied respectfully.Smack! Nana had suddenly slap

Nana could not believe that Lucas Lynch turned out to be John Levine.But she had to, because that was reality.Was that why John loved Cordy so much that he could die for her?"Nana," John said then, "don't waste your time on me. It's not worth getting yourself into trouble because of me.""Why not? Because you'll never love me?" Nana asked through tears."Yes." John nodded without hesitation."What if you never knew Cordy? Would you fall for me?" Nana asked meekly."Never." John remained resolute. "There's no 'what ifs'. I won't ever fall for any woman other than Cordy.""But weren't you happy with me before?""In retrospect, it was just licking each other's wounds and compromising.""Lucas!" Nana cried, almost breaking down right then. "Can't you just lie to me once in the end?! Why do you have to be so cruel to me?!"John simply stayed silent, and Nana was left laughing as her tears gushed.Yes—his love for Cordy was so sacred that not even death would sully it an inch.
