Cordy was getting really bored.

She gave Winston a call. "Hi Winston, Cordy here."

"How do you do, Ms. Sachs? I have your number saved in my phone. How can I help you?" Winston was very courteous.

"It's the weekend. Is Dicky at home?"

"He is."

"Can I bring him over to my place and stay the night?" Cordy asked.

Zoe was away over the weekend to attend an event in another city.

"Ms. Sachs, please hang on while I ask," Winston said respectfully.

"Are you asking John? He wouldn't be able to pick up your call," Cordy said straightforwardly.

"No. Master John previously instructed that if you want to take Master Richard, you can do so anytime. I'm just asking Master Richard for his opinion. He's playing with his toys and doesn't like being interrupted when he's focused on something."

"Sure. Thank you, then," Cordy said politely.

She selectively ignored some things that Winston had said.

After a while, Winston came back to the phone. "Master Richard looks forward to you coming to pi

    Cordy had thought that she would see John again sooner or later, but she did not expect it to be under such circumstances.She also thought that John and Jessica would not have the time to bring Richard out, given how busy they had been over the past few days, which was why she chose to take Richard during this period. Had she known…she probably would not have come, as much as she wanted to.She looked casually at John, being careful not to gaze at him for too long while not being overly evasive. She wanted to treat him just as she would any other stranger—neutral and normal."Daddy, may I go to Mommy's place?" Richard looked pleasingly at John and asked. John swallowed, and he shifted his eyes away from Cordy.He said to Richard, "Sure.""Thank you, Daddy." Richard could not hold back his joy.He shook Cordy's arm excitedly. "Mommy, Daddy has agreed for me to follow you to your place!"Cordy shot Richard a bright smile and turned back to look at John. "Thank you."John clenc

    They did not notice John, Jessica, and the hoards of bodyguards in black behind them.They had originally planned to come to the amusement park today.The plan was to bring Richard along, but Cordy took him away at the last minute, so the two of them went along with the original plan and came here. To their surprise, they saw Cordy and Richard.Jessica's eyes shifted.Richard had never liked getting close to others since he was young, and he had never been a lively kid. Instead, he had a maturity that was beyond his years.Yet, he was completely different in front of Cordy.Jessica turned to look at John and saw how he kept his eyes on the two of them right in front until they were engulfed by the crowds."Let's go." John retracted his gaze and looked plainly at Jessica.A faint smile remained on Jessica's lips as she walked by John's side.Aside from the bodyguards surrounding them, there were also reporters deliberately planted around them.They were there to provide real-t

    Richard pouted.He had never said that he wanted to take care of Jessica, his 'godmother', when she grew old.Even her status as his godmother was something she had forced upon him.Cordy simply listened to the conversation between Richard and Jessica.She remained silent, and so did John.Only Jessica and Richard could be heard in the queue, mostly with Jessica taking the initiative to tease Richard and him going along with it.After half an hour, it was finally their turn."Shall we ride together?" Jessica enthused.The Ferris wheel carriage was very large, enough to accommodate eight passengers."No need," Cordy rejected immediately. "We shan't interrupt your date.""It's all right," Jessica said generously."There are so many reporters around. It's not good if they film us together." Cordy was straightforward with her words.Clearly, she had noticed the hoard of people around them.Jessica turned to look at John, as if to seek his opinion."Let's sit separately," he s

    But he also kept sensing a mixture of guilt in his Mommy's eyes whenever she looked at him.It was clearly Daddy who let Mommy down.Richard lay quietly in Cordy's arms without any resistance at all. He simply allowed her to hold him tight, as if she had lost him once and did not want him away from her side for even a second.The Ferris wheel carriage climbed higher and higher in the sky until they reached the peak.Cordy finally calmed herself down and replied to Richard's earlier question. "I don't feel sad at all with you around.""Mommy." Richard stretched his hand out and wiped the tears away from her face. That was when Cordy realized that she was tearing up.It was probably from emotions that she had kept to herself for too long. It was only now that she allowed herself to release a little bit of it.Cordy said affectionately, "Dicky, I'm really lucky to have you around.""No matter who Daddy marries, I'll always be by Mommy's side," Richard promised."Okay." Cordy

    Of course, she would never let John know about these.The only thing she would let John know was that she was absolutely clueless about the sudden official announcement of their engagement. She was also forced to accept it, and she would even be willing to cooperate with John to break the engagement.Being in a relationship was similar to business negotiations. Blindly charging forward was never the way to go—she had to strategize and make plans."John, I added Cordy on her socials just now."John turned to look at her.It was as if she had to mention Cordy's name for John to pay attention to her."Should I explain to her about things between us?" Jessica said, well-intentioned."There's no need to." John rejected."She seems to have misunderstood us greatly.""All the more you need to avoid it." John was straightforward.Jessica pursed her lips.His words did nothing to ease the worry in her heart.She did not expect John to become so distant from her in just half a year

    "I warned you long ago that John Levine would never fancy you, and you still went ahead to throw yourself at him. Look, you've gone and completely embarrassed yourself…"Cordy hung up without any hesitation.She had no expectations whatsoever for the Sachs.Her phone rang again.Cordy refused to answer it until finally, Simon called."Cordy Sachs, what kind of attitude was that toward your grandmother?" Simon was furious.Cordy could imagine how mad Plum was when she had hung up on Cordy just now."I don't have the obligation to accept her humiliation and scolding, nor am I duty-bound to listen to your criticisms." With that, Cordy made a move to end the call. Plum's voice rang out urgently from the phone. "Bryson said that you made him lose his job!" Plum probably figured that there was nothing she could do about Cordy and finally blurred out the objective of her call."That's his own business. It has nothing to do with me.""Nothing to do with you? Bryson said that it's

    Back at the Sachs' residence, Plum was hopping with anger."Grandma, don't be so angry," Noel said, comforting Plum. "She's probably not feeling too good after John's engagement news, that's why she lost control and said those harsh words to you.""She had it coming!" Plum yelled. "She didn't know her place and seduced John, having a pipe dream of getting married into a wealthy family!""Cordy did think a little too highly of herself. How could we ever be worthy of a family like the Levines?" Noel said with a helpless look on her face, "But we live and learn. Let's hope that Cordy has learned her lesson this time."Despite what she said on the outside, Noel was not in fact happy with how things turned out. She thought that she would be capable of seducing whoever Cordy managed to get her hands on and was fantasizing about finding the golden opportunity to snatch John away from Cordy. It turned out that John was already engaged, and it was someone with such an intimidating backgro

    [Sure, I'll send you my address.] Cordy did so and sent Jessica her location.[Thank you. I'll be there in half an hour.]Cordy put down her phone and looked at Richard, who was immersed in a TV show on space exploration. She could not bear to leave him.However, she had ample time and did not need to be anxious right now.She walked over and said, "Dicky, your godmother wants to send you back."Richard was originally in high spirits watching the TV show, but his face fell immediately upon hearing that he had to leave."She's leaving North City tomorrow, so accompany her for one night. After she leaves, I'll bring you over here every weekend from now on if I can." "Okay." Richard nodded obediently.As much as he was unwilling, he would not make things difficult for Cordy.His obedience in turn made her heart ache even more.Jessica reached in less than half an hour, and Cordy walked Richard to the entrance of the district."Dicky," Jessica said enthusiastically upon seeing

    Soon, another nurse emerged from the delivery room with a small bundle. "Is the mother's family here?""Yes!" John exclaimed loudly."The delivery was successful," the nurse said. "The baby weighs eight pounds—""How is she?" John asked in agitation, not caring about the child."She's fine. The doctor is just helping her clean up and she'll be out soon," the nurse replied.As John breathed a sigh of relief, the nurse reminded him, "Aren't you the father? Here's your child."John took the baby off her arms, staring at her for a moment as the others flocked around him. "Oh, she's so fair!" Zoe could not help exclaiming. "That's the most beautiful baby I've ever seen.""Are you saying that your son's ugly?" Bob teased."To be honest, yeah," Zoe replied without thinking.Jay cleared his throat—even if it was a subjective opinion, it still hurt to have his own baby called ugly."Let me carry her," Zoe volunteered just then, and John did not hesitate to hand her his baby.As Zoe

    "What?!" Zoe exclaimed in shock.Beside them, John's face fell despite being usually stoic.Still, even before anyone could react, he scooped Cordy up in his arms and left.Zoe did not hesitate to follow, but Jay reminded her, "We're the hosts, Zoe.""Don't care." Zoe was completely unconcerned. "Ask my mom and your sister to handle the guests. I'm going with Cordy!"Jay hesitated for a moment before deciding to follow since there was no reasoning with Zoe.Sam and Quinn also realized that something was out of place.As they pulled away reluctantly, Bob shouted from below, "If you're done kissing, we're going to the hospital! Cordy's going into labor!"Quinn hurried after them as soon as she hurt, but Sam caught her. "Slow down. We can catch up."In fact, most of the guests were leaving as well—it was as if the banquet for Zoe's son was actually intended for everyone else.The poor boy was certainly unlucky to have such unreliable parents!-As everyone rushed to the hospit

    "I'm swelling from my pregnancy," Quinn explained. "It's not your fault."Sam was left staring at her for a while before asking, "So, what should I do?""I'll put it on when I slim down.""Oh." Sam was a little disappointed, since he had always dreamed of having her put on the ring he had custom made.But this was fine—they had all the time they needed, and the most important thing for him is that Quinn was marrying him!He rose to his feet just then, and everyone was cheering as soon as he did. "Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!"Quinn blushed right then, and Sam could see that she was embarrassed.He did not want to make things awkward for her, even if he was quite eager at the moment.Heaven knows how much he missed that night's drunken fumble they had. In fact, during the times he remembered it in dreams, he had to wash his pants when he woke up.Still, just as he took Quinn's hand and started to leave, he felt a softness on his lips—Quinn was kissing him! Sam's heart pounded thunderous

    Everyone waited patiently for the final outcome.Quinn's eyes were welling up with tears, threatening to gush if she so much as blinked.She did her best to hold back her tears—to be strong!Sam pursed his lips in turn, his Adam's apple bobbing.A long while passed, and it felt like a century for Quinn when she finally heard him say, "Yes."Quinn's tears started falling in happiness as Sam declared loudly, "I'll marry you, Quinn—it's what I've always wanted to do! I won't let you go even if you regret it eventually! You only get to be with me, and I'll never let any other man claim you! I'll become very overbearing… eventually!""I won't regret it," Quinn said, determined.She certainly would not regret marrying him!Zoe walked up to them with perfect timing just then, and Sam did a double take.He finally remembered that Zoe was the host of this luncheon and was going to leave with Quinn when Zoe whipped out a small red velvet box."You know what's in here, don't you?" Zoe a

    However, Sam had already pushed Quinn away before she could tell him. But even if he did not love her or did not want to be with her, she would never stay with Ryan.She had been disappointed in Sam, wondering why he would give up so easily.Was she that unimportant to him?Therefore, if it were not for Zoe and Cordy showing her that video or telling her so much, she would never have known that he loved her for years…Sam's heart ached even as he looked into Quinn's tearful eyes.He reached out a hand, but soon withdrew it—would he not burden her?Even so, it hurt to restrain himself as he watched her, and he was actually getting the feeling that Quinn loved him…But she already had Ryan's child…Well, he was fine with that, as long as the child was Quinn's.But would she not mind?"I will marry you, Sam," Quinn said slowly and clearly then. "Not because you're a good man, not because you prepared so much for me, and not because of how much you prepared for me, but because I

    Everyone in the hall was staring at Sam and Quinn, while Quinn took center stage, staring fixedly at Sam.He stood in the middle of the crowd, watching her silently.She in turn felt fear that he would turn and leave, just as she did not know if she had the courage to stand before him again and to declare her feelings for him in front of so many others.Nonetheless, amid the deafening silence, Sam suddenly walked toward the stage.His pace was slow as if his feet were made of lead, but he was also unusually determined.Quinn's heart raced uncontrollably right then!Everyone else was watching them nervously, especially Cordy and Zoe, with the latter being especially concerned that the cowardly Sam would bail.Fortunately, he was a man who showed responsibility. He would not leave Quinn alone and embarrassed.Hence, as everyone looked on, Sam stood before Quinn, his gaze flickering as their eyes met.He gulped ever so slightly, his emotions clearly ruffled even as he did his bes

    The guests were encouraging, loudly asking, "Why?!""Because of a woman," Sam's recording replied."Who is it?""Quinn Summer," the Sam on the screen said slowly and clearly, leaving the Sam who was in the hall stunned.What the hell?! That was the proposal video he prepared before! Why did it show up here? Did Zoe make a mistake?!He knew it—leave anything to Zoe, and she would mess it up!He started striding toward the stage, intent on stopping the recording, when John and Bob intercepted him with a look of utter guilt while the recording continued. "Quinn is my wife, and we've been married for years, but I've never really loved her—not because I don't, but because I'm afraid to. I feel too insignificant in comparison to the one she loves, so I'd always hurt her… painfully and childishly. I regret that so much now, Quinn. How could I have abandoned you for so long because of my own jealousy? I'd rather hold you in my sleep every night, but my damned pride denied me that for y

    At the banquet hall, Jay and Zoe were thanking their guests with their children in their arms.Then, Zoe announced excitedly, "Please give my best friend, who is also my son's godmother, a warm applause as she comes on stage!"Sam stood at a corner of the hall, watching as Quinn walked up the stage, only realizing just then that her belly was clearly swelling despite her baggy clothes.Time flies—he had not left that long ago, but she and Ryan already had a child.She was not worried about giving him a stroke, was she?He watched as Quinn took the mic and looked around below searching, seemingly searching.After a while, he thought she was looking at him, but by the time he looked up, she had already turned away.Maybe she was looking for Ryan before remembering that Ryan was not there?Nonetheless, Quinn spoke into the mic, saying, "I'm honored to be chosen as the godmother to Zoe's son, and she's been saying he'd be engaged to my child if it's a girl. I already love my godson

    As their eyes met, Sam turned frantic and averted his. "Of course.""Really?" Quinn asked."Would I lie to you?" Sam asked a little grumpily."And you didn't bring her back?" Quinn asked."I'm on a schedule, and it'd be taxing for her if I bought her along," Sam said, making things up as he went along. "I'll bring her along when things are less busy.""Is she pretty?" Quinn pressed."What, have I ever picked an ugly one?" Sam snorted smugly. "You know I prefer curvaceous types, and there are plenty of those abroad.""Do you have a photo?"Sam was silent for a while and eventually said, "Yeah.""Can I see it?""What, does she have to pass your assessment?""Just curious about the girl who can tempt you to settle down," Quinn replied. "You'd be humbled." Sam hastily came up with an excuse."I won't," Quinn said, determined."You'll see her when I bring her home." Sam refused nonetheless."I would like to see a photo now.""No, she's not that photogenic. It'd be slander a
