A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 1261
After lunch, John led Cordy upstairs to his room for a break.As they went, Zoe was giggling as she watched them, leaving Cordy speechless. Honestly, why did she have to keep thinking about that stuff?Seemingly reading her mind, John suddenly said, "She's not wrong.""Huh?" Cordy was confused.John leaned in and whispered something into her ear, and she was left flushing right then.He grinned. "Go to bed already, Mrs. Levine.""Should we sleep… in separate beds?" Cordy asked, concerned for his spiritual well-being just then."No." He refused summarily. "I'd rather spontaneously combust than let you spontaneously vanish."Cordy's heart skipped a beat—how scared was he that she would leave him?-Meanwhile, Zoe remained in the parlor, watching a reality show on TV.Jay had left to coax Yelena to take a nap, or he would not be able to return to Zoe.She sat on the couch, feeling that everything there changed though the people living there were different.Suddenly, she had

Zoe stared at Cora in slight surprise, not quite convinced that she could let go of past grievances so easily.Cora read Zoe's mind too and explained, "Since I've been brought back here, my mother has become the most important person to me. She gave me everything I did not even dare dream of before, be it riches, fame, or kinship. To me, her concerns are mine, and I won't care for what she doesn't care about."In other words, Cora changed her opinion of Zoe because Nancy did.It was as much of a surprise as it was unexpected.However, Zoe told her bluntly, "Actually, I think you should be more independent. You shouldn't be living for anyone else."Cora stared at her, unable to react to Zoe's advice, not to mention that her mother had told her the same thing just the other night."I understand that you're still afraid even after being given back what was rightfully yours," Zoe explained. "That's why you're tiptoeing and never gained confidence, because you fear that your newfound

After dinner at Levine Manor, Cordy and John left with Richard, while Zoe and Jay left with Yelena.Nancy walked with them to the door, watching as they got into their car. "Remember to come back often, Johnny." "Yeah," John replied. "But he's going to the capital soon," Zoe said, tactless as ever. "He has to visit Cordy's family, so he's going to be gone for a while. Don't ask too much now."Zoe was among one of few who found out about Cordy's connection to the Cranstons later on, and she thought Cordy must have gotten tired of having to keep hiding that fact from her.In reality, Cordy only told her because there was no threat against them—she did not want her loved ones to worry for her, let alone get them caught in danger.However, before Nancy could say a thing, Cordy turned toward Zoe. "But I never said I'm going to the capital, did I?"Did anyone say anything about that?Zoe appeared perplexed in turn—did she really not know? "But I just heard Jay and John talking abou

Sean was waiting at the airport, glowering as if they owed him money—though he probably would not be that upset even if they did.Still, Cordy noticed in surprise that Patrick was there too! Should he not be in Rocktown? What was he doing here?!"Sean…" Cordy barely began when Sean turned and strode off.He looked really upset.Cordy slid a glance at John, who gave her an assuring look as if it was no issue.Cordy rolled her eyes—for him, maybe, since Sean was not his cousin.She quickly hurried after Sean, though they left the airport in two different cars.Though calm earlier, Cordy was starting to get a little worried because of Sean's silent treatment when John assured her, "Don't worry—I have leverage against him.""What?" Cordy exclaimed in surprise—leverage again Sean? What could it be?John merely grinned enigmatically while their cars soon took them to Cranston Hall.There, Cordy gingerly approached Sean. "How's Grandfather?""You remember him now?" Sean scoffed,

Sean blinked. While a wedding at the capital goes without saying, John also suggested announcing Cordy's identity, which Sean himself had wanted to do for some time if not for Cordy's refusal.Cordy was in turn frowning at John—she never said anything about announcing that.John in turn quickly sensed her displeasure and whispered into her ear, "I have to do this to cajole Sean."In reality, he had planned to announce Cordy's identity for a long while.Naturally, it was not for vanity, but Cordy should shine further because she had what it took.Cordy pursed her lips, since she could understand that Sean would be furious that she decided to get married on her own…Well, whatever. There was no denying that the Cranstons' blood flowed in her veins, and there was nothing bad about letting the public know that part of her anyway.Still, Sean said, "I have another request."John stared at him warily, as if to tell him to toe the line or they would all be in for it if Cordy got u

Richard was not actually watching the adults but was using his phone.He had no concerns these days since his daddy and mommy made up. He was therefore caught by surprise when his daddy suddenly said his name, and he looked at them in confusion.Sean was smart enough to catch what John meant right then—when he was older, Richard could take over the Cranston family estate.The man certainly had brains."What's wrong, Daddy?" Richard asked in confusion just then."Nothing. Get back to using your phone." John smiled.That smile creeped out Richard somehow, as if John was going to sell him off to some slavers.But considering that he was not adopted, and his biological parents had no reason to actually sell him, he shrugged and continued poring over his phone."How about that?" John asked for confirmation.Sean nodded begrudgingly—it was certainly not difficult.The reality was that Sean himself had no intention of abandoning the Cranston family estate easily since it was his gra

Cordy asked, "Should I know?""Well, no," John said, not giving a direct answer. "But I was sure you could guess it."Cordy frowned—guess? Guess what?!Was it even possible that Patrick and Sean shared some unspeakable secret… Hold on!Cordy was taken aback, staring at John as a certain idea started to take root.John chuckled—he knew his wife was smart enough to figure it out.-Meanwhile, they arrived at the exceedingly luxurious private hospital where Jesse Cranston was admitted—it was only natural that he stayed at such a place.As they alighted, Cordy was staring between Sean and Patrick, not quite understanding it just then."What's wrong?" Sean asked, frowning and left a little perplexed by Cordy's fixed stare."Nothing," Cordy replied as she came to her senses and followed him into the hospital.There was an indescribable tension every time she came.To think that her grandfather was still bedridden… Suddenly, she felt a big warm hand grasping hers, and she looked

And the future was right in front of them.Everyone stayed at Jesse's ward for a while, and Cordy's eyes were still red as they left.She must admit that she felt relieved like never before, as if she really bade farewell to the past and made peace with it after telling her grandfather that John was there with them, alive.And she would always allow John to be in his life, always.Returning to Cranston Hall, John was leading Cordy to her room to get some rest when she said bluntly, "I'll rest later. You can go to our room for now—I want to talk to Patrick."John naturally knew what they would discuss, and Patrick agreed to it cheerfully.The last time they met was at their botched wedding—others aside, the two of them were still business partners, and they should not stay away from each other forever."Okay," John said simply."I'll take you to your room," Sean offered, letting Cordy and Patrick be alone.After John and Sean left, Cordy and Patrick headed to the tearoom outsid
