A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 1162
Sean was no close friend of Patrick's, but he knew Sean enough that he would not lie about something so important.If Sean said John would live, then he would live.He turned toward Cordy, and said confidently, "Sean said John would live. He's probably just wounded, so Sean took him to the hospital."Cordy nodded silently.She did not ask any questions—because she was afraid to.It was the same for Patrick.All he asked was whether John was alive and nothing else…"Let's go, Cordy." Patrick helped her to her feet.Right now, he had to take her somewhere safe. He had no idea if Nana planned anything else, and safety was the best policy right now.Perhaps they could go to the hospital to visit John.Running was not an option.He toko Cordy's hand to lead her away while telling the staff, "Please handle the guests appropriately—""Patrick." Cordy suddenly stopped him.Patrick did a double take and turned toward Cordy in surprise."We're staying," she said solemnly.There

Cordy turned toward Zoe in surprise—she was rarely that serious."What's wrong, Zoe? Are you in shock too?" Cordy asked in concern. "Also, where's Jay? What's he doing, not staying with you? If you're still traumatized, head home, or take a break in the anteroom…""Jay left to check on John," Zoe said bluntly. "To see if he's dead.""He's not. Sean just called, saying that he's safe and taken to the hospital—""And does that mean you don't have to care?" Zoey demanded.Cordy blinked.Zoe was clearly emotional.Furious, even."John almost died trying to save you, and you really feel nothing? Or don't you care about that at all? You'd even continue your wedding after all that—is a wedding more important than a person's life?!" Zoe snapped, her voice louder with every word.She had always worshiped Cordy, never questioning Cordy's actions.But she could not help doing it now in front of all of Cordy's guests.Did John not deserve even a sliver of her sympathy? Did Cordy have to

Cordy took a deep breath and told Quinn, "I'm counting on you now. Patrick and I will arrange for the wedding to resume.""Okay.""Wait, where's Dicky?" Cordy suddenly remembered."I just saw him follow Sean outside. He must be with John—do you want me to check?""Yeah, thanks,"Cordy and Patrick left, while Quinn called to check if Richard was with John.She went looking for Cordy after she was done, and Cordy had already confirmed the new program with the emcee, and the wedding soon resumed.Some of the guests had left, but not that many—both Cordy and Patrick were people of influence, just as many would need to consider their positions.Moreover, if the bride and bridegroom feel that they could continue, there probably was no danger.As such, Cordy and Patrick stood together one stage once more, looking like a match made in heaven.The emcee livened things up, clearing the gloom before proceeding to the new schedule."Patrick Stuart, wilt thou have this woman to thy wedde

"I pronounce you husband and wife!" the emcee announced excitedly. "You may now kiss the bride."The hall erupted in thunderous applause at his words, and confetti popped above stage.The atmosphere at the wedding reached a climax even as Patrick stood face-to-face with Cordy, staring at her.She was looking fixedly into his eyes in turn, and the lights above illuminated their bright gazes with a celestial glint."Cordy," Patrick gently called out to her."Yeah.""Will you marry me?" he asked."Yeah." Cordy nodded—she had strong principles, and no one could force her to do anything."Will you regret it?""No," Cordy replied, shaking her head.Once she married him, her world would revolve around him and their family—no one would change that.Nonetheless, Patrick said bitterly, "But I'm worried I'll regret this."As Cordy's eyes widened, he continued, "I'm afraid I can't give you a happy family."Why?" Cordy asked, a little nervous.Patrick could do anything well—why would

Patrick kept his eyes on Cordy even as he continued, "I don't want to force this. I'm tired of it. I admit that I yearned to marry you, the only woman I've ever loved and the one who makes me want to give up on my former life… To start anew. I'd admit I was looking forward to this wedding so much I wanted to make it perfect, so that I won't have regrets. Even so… At this very moment, I regret it.""Patrick…""I'm sorry, Cordy." Patrick apologized."No, you don't have to apologize. It's unnecessary…" Cordy murmured, knowing very well that Patrick was suddenly regretful because she did not want her to be sad.He was convinced that she still loved John, and nothing she said now would work.She did not want to lie to Patrick, not when he was so pure and innocent."I'm sorry for embarrassing you in front of so many guests. It's willful of me," Patrick said, and reached out to take her veil off.The guests were left stunned, since they did not see a kiss.It was certainly weird that

Cordy left with Quinn, leaving the staff to handle the guests.She certainly was not in the mood to deal with anything else, but she had to admit that she was depressed.Even after she got in her car, she realized afterward that it was the bridal car for her and Patrick, which left her even more depressed.Quinn noticed that too and was left feeling a little helpless."Cordy…"Cordy took a deep breath. "It's alright."Quinn shook her head—how could she be?Even if the feelings were not that strong, anyone would be upset being left at the altar.Still, she had no idea how to console Cordy.Should she say that she felt a little lucky?!It was far better than to proceed with the wedding, have bottled-up feelings after, and force herself to be happy.But Quinn was afraid to say it—only Zoe would ever dare say something like that.Cordy naturally did not know what was on Quinn's mind, and she picked up her phone, hesitating for a moment before making the call."Hey Cordy," Sean

"Don't worry. Cordy knows what she's doing and won't get up to anything serious," Quinn said bluntly. "If she wants to be alone, she wants to be alone.""Yeah," Sean replied."Are you leaving? Don't let me keep you," Quinn said, smiling faintly as Sean gazed at her.With that, she said nothing else and headed to the hallway outside the operating room.Both Jay and Zoe were waiting outside, worry clear on their faces."Oh, you're here, Quinn!" Zoe was thrilled to see her."Yeah.""Wait, if you're here… what about Cordy's wedding?!" Zoe exclaimed.Even if she disliked how Cordy treated John, she earnestly wanted the best for Cordy regardless."Didn't Sean tell you?" Quinn exclaimed in surprise, thinking to herself then that the geezer was really tight-lipped. "Patrick left Cordy at the altar.""What?!" Zoe could not help exclaiming, and for a moment, the only sound in the entire hospital was her voice.The nurses at the nurse's station turned toward her, and Quinn promptly shu

Both Jay and Quinn were left staring at Zoe, speechless.She really could not hide any secret!And John just had surgery. If his blood pressure spiked or something…Still, John's face fell for a moment, though he soon calmed himself at the next instant, perhaps convinced that he was hallucinating and was therefore afraid to believe it.Everyone escorted him to his VVIP ward, where the medical staff settled John in and left after leaving some instructions.The ward was silent with just a few of them.Richard spoke up then.He had been sitting silent on the walkway outside the surgery room, overwrought and never chiming in even after hearing that his mommy was left at the altar.Now that he saw that John was fine, he could not help asking, "Aunt Zoe? You just said that Mr. Stuart left my mommy at the altar. Is that true? They're not married?"Zoe was just drafting a text to Cordy, unable to help caring about her even though they just had a little disagreement.It would hurt bei
