A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 190
John grinned as Cordy turned away from him.She was really refusing him utterly!At the same time, Cordy continued to browse the news articles nonchalantly as she asked, "Why did you hide your face when you came?" "I thought I had no right," John replied. No right?As Cordy looked up at him, he explained, "One of your conditions for dating me, Ms. Sachs, is that we do not go public about our relationship."Cordy pursed her lips—she definitely did not say that, just as she was reluctant now.In fact, she was not that confident about dating John, and yet…Perhaps she was starting to feel a spark, or she was just reluctant to reject John's kindness. Nevertheless, she genuinely had a hard time trusting everyone else after her relationship with Kyle and having grown up abused by the Sachs.Going public with their relationship would only add to her troubles—aside from worrying that things would end poorly between them, she had to worry about the inconveniences that John's status

John was as surprised, though Cordy must admit that she was too."I don't know why she asked me to do that. Maybe it's because she was worried I'll attract too much attention and draw problems to myself. However…"Cordy paused, working hard to remember her mother's appearance before she continued, "However, my mother wasn't the type who took things lying down. That's why I don't know why she asked that of me, and it's a shame that she's no longer around and I'll never have answers. Even so, she was the only one in this world I trust and who genuinely cared about me. That's why I'll always keep her words in my heart."John was silent, and Cordy thought he was probably wondering why her mother would ask that of her. Why hide when Cordy was one of the best fashion designers out there?"If Mandy didn't try to frame me, I would have kept hiding my identity as Lovely," Cordy then murmured, ultimately slightly disappointed that she could not fulfill her late mother's wish.John could n

Innocence?! John?!What innocence did he have when his son was already five?!However, although Cordy was pouting, she could not help smiling just then.It honestly felt very good to be loved and respected.-Cordy woke up naturally the next morning. Although she had gone missing for a whole day, no one aside from Zoe called her—not even from work.She washed up and opened the glass door in her room.The sun was bright and the ocean's breeze blew.She stood on the wide open balcony and stared at the clear water before her, so clear she could see the bottom.As she looked down, she also saw the muscular man swimming in the private pool beneath.He paused, seemingly sensing someone looking at him just then, and he stood in the middle of the pool. As water streamed down along his body, his alluring Adam's apple and chiseled chest were especially eye-catching.He was nonchalantly running his hand through his hair as he looked up, revealing his exquisite facial features in full

Fiery passion?! To think John had the cheek to say that! And who on earth packed that bikini in her luggage anyway?In fact, that was the only thing she found after she searched the whole closet!Cordy still clearly remembered that Zoe was the one who gave it to her, saying that it was a gift from a sponsor after some sort of event. However, Zoe insisted that she could not wear something so risque as a public figure or the paparazzi would try to spice things up if they got a photo. Still, Zoe insisted that it was beautiful and should not be left to gather dust, and she gave it to Cordy, saying that Cordy would definitely look good with her amazing figure. Cordy did not want to turn down Zoe's enthusiasm, but she had no plans to wear it even after accepting it.And John had to put this in her luggage so that she only had it for swimwear!"Did you tell Winston to pack my luggage?" she asked in annoyance."Does Winston have such a keen eye for beauty?" John asked in return, c

Cordy realized what the 'fun' John meant was all about on the third day of their trip.It was very early in the morning when he scooped her out of bed even before she woke up.He then carried her to a luxurious yacht and set sail further out to the ocean.When she was finally wide awake, they were already in the middle of nowhere, the yacht gently floating against the swell of the waters."Here, put on some sunscreen," John said as he got down from the deck."It's fine," Cordy replied, still lying on a beach chair. "I'm staying here… Oh!"Cordy pursed her lips as John held her firmly against her seat, his long fingers applying sunscreen over her back and spreading it evenly.He was covering every nook and cranny, and she would doubt anyone who told her he did not have OCD!She wanted to refuse him a couple of times but since resistance was futile, she should just save her strength and lie down to enjoy it. "Shall I do the front too?" John asked."Nope!" she snapped and snatc

It was night by the time they returned to the villa, and Cordy was so exhausted she did not want to move.And yet, as soon as morning arrived the next day, John dragged her out of bed again and took her to the helicopter.At first, things were calm and relaxing since the helicopter was just taking them on a tour around the island.That was until John brought out the parachute.Was she allowed to refuse?!"We're jumping together. I'll be holding onto you," John told her.That was not the point! She had a fear of heights!Nonetheless, John strapped her to himself with a harness and walked her to the helicopter door."John…" she muttered. "Yes?"Cordy closed her eyes as she gave in. "If I die, I'll return as a vengeful spirit that haunts your dreams.""Exactly what I had in mind too." John heaved into her ear with his magnetic voice, and they both jumped out of the helicopter.Cordy still kept her eyes closed, and all she felt was the wind blowing against her ear, the abrupt

Cordy frowned as John continued solemnly, "And when that happens, half my assets will be yours."Cordy's heart skipped a beat. They had just known each other for half a year, and it had only been four months since they officially started dating.And he was already thinking about marriage?No, he had probably thought of the name of their next child already!"Let's go," he said, taking her hand and heading calmly to the next store.Really worried that John would buy the entire mall, she said, "I'm tired. Let's sit down over there or get something cold.""Alright," he said and led her to a cold beverage stall.Meanwhile, hotel valets would send back everything they bought, and they had been coming and going in batches. Cordy wanted ice cream, but just as she pondered what flavor to order, John told the attendant, "One of every flavor, please."The attendant was certainly experienced enough not to be shocked, since anyone who could afford to travel to Ayro Island and shop in th

The street photographer sent the photo to John via Bluetooth, and John stared at his phone screen after receiving it, his eyes never blinking once.How good was it that he would be so engrossed?Cordy was not interested at first, but she was now getting eager.Eventually, she could not help asking, " Let me have a look."John turned away from his phone screen then and passed his phone to Cordy.She looked at the screen to see John taking a bite out of her sundae, his facial features perfect as ever when viewed from the side.What she did not expect was that she was photographed staring at John's face, when she was under the impression that she was just staring at her sundae—worried that John would finish it. But what really hammered the nail on the coffin was her eyes, for they simply looked so tender and sentimental as she stared at John.She suddenly realized she would have trouble explaining this. "Are you done looking?" John asked."I am," Cordy replied, feigning noncha
