A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 251
"Do you still want to drink?" Zoe asked, looking at the bottles all over the floor.She knew John could hold his alcohol well, but she didn't agree at how desperate he was drinking right now. Besides, her head hurt a lot. She wasn't sure if it was because she hadn't rested well, but she knew if she kept going, she was going to get drunk soon."I'm waiting..." John replied."For who?""The driver."It took Zoe a moment to remember that they had both been drinking, and that they had driven here in Cordy's car.Seriously. Even when he was pissed drunk, John remained somewhat sober. Zoe wasn't sure if it was a good thing or not. The good thing was that rational people generally didn't make mistakes.The bad thing was that it was tough for people like this to vent and relax.Without being able to do anything else, Zoe sat by John's side as he continued to drink.And drink.And drink.Suddenly, John said, "Do you still like Jay?"Zoe spat out a mouthful of wine at the unexp

After Jay released Zoe, he didn't linger any longer and went directly to John. "Can you walk on your own?"It was clear to him John had been drinking a lot."Yeah.""Let's go," Jay said.John stood, then swayed a little. Jay eventually had to assist him and help him to the passenger side of the car as Zoe followed behind. While she was considering if she should also get into the car, Jay said, "Johnny mentioned that this car is Cordy's. I'll send you back since I have to return the car."So, Zoe got into the back seat.The car ride was smooth. Even though it was late at night and there were scarcely any cars on the road, Jay drove slowly. He had always been a gentle person.Perhaps because he was living by relying on someone else's charity, she hardly ever saw him lose his temper. Zoe was also unsure which part of him attracted her. She couldn't even remember the reason she fell in love with Jay.After all, among her friends, some men were more good-looking, outstanding, and

"Sorry to disturb you," Jay said apologetically. "Zoe fell asleep.""It's fine, since..." Cordy trailed off, then continued, "Could you bring her in?"Jay didn't ask anything further and simply followed Cordy through the house, then placed Zoe in Cordy's bed. From the start to the end, Zoe hadn’t moved a muscle.After releasing her, Jay left Cordy's room with the latter following him. When they reached the living room, Jay handed her the medicine John had asked him to buy just now.Cordy was stunned.Jay explained, "Johnny asked me to give you this."Cordy pursed her lips but said nothing. There was a dark bruise on her neck from when Bryson held her tonight. She hadn't thought that John had noticed."Thank you," Cordy said, accepting it.She accepted simply because she didn't want to make things difficult for Jay and didn't want to make a big fuss out of something small.Jay actually knew what was going through Cordy's mind. The more calm she acted, the more she didn't care.

Zoe wasn't with Cordy in person, but she could practically feel how busy Cordy was. Zoe let out a long sigh.Perhaps work was able to make Cordy forget about the upsetting things that were going on. She had been this way since back then. She hardly ever stopped to breathe since the start of her career.-Cordy put away her phone and headed to the conference room. The meeting today was to discuss the bidding, and the afternoon was to be spent looking at the creation of a new brand. For a business to continue to grow, it must be continuously innovative.When the meeting ended, it was time to get off work. However, Cordy stayed in the office and continued to process the many internal requests she had in hand. As she continued her work silently, her phone started ringing.She glanced at it, then pressed the button to reject the call. After a while, her phone rang again. This time, it was an unfamiliar number calling.She hesitated for a moment before answering, "Hello?""Hello,

Cordy didn't think she would actually pass out. Even though she had been up almost the entire night and had overworked herself, she still thought she could endure it.However, she fainted in front of Kyle, of all people.The moment she collapsed, a bad feeling washed over her.-Zoe was waiting at home for Cordy to return from work. She had rescheduled all her work today and ordered a very nutritious meal from the best private chef in North City to give Cordy some well-needed supplements. Cordy seemed to have lost weight recently, and her wrists were so thin that it looked like they could easily break!Zoe didn't know why her heart ached so much when she saw Cordy in this state.Cordy was clearly a strong woman, tougher and more beautiful than Zoe. Yet, she was ill-fated. As the saying goes, the more beautiful you are, the more miserable your life is.She waited until half past seven and started to get anxious as there was still no sign of the other woman. Cordy hadn't rested en

At Levine Ventures' General Manager office, John had hung up the call with Zoe and immediately dialed another number. "Jay, could you ask Mandy if Kyle is at home?""What's wrong?""Once you know, just text me. I only want to know the answer to that question," John said urgently before hanging up the phone.Then, he dialed another number. "Search through all the cameras in the city quickly and find out where Cordy went after she left work. Also, arrange for a search through the city for any information about her. Send word to me immediately if there's anything. Don't do anything without my authorization.""Understood," the person on the other end said respectfully.Just as John was about to hang up, he suddenly thought of something, and his eyes narrowed. "Wait. Find out who last called Cordy on her phone.""Understood."After that call, John saw Jay's message. [Kyle isn't at home.]John's eyes turned hard, and he clenched his fist; his knuckles turned white from the force.

Kyle's ugly face was right in front of Cordy, and she could only look at him coldly as endless humiliation made her stomach churn in disgust.Kyle was enjoying himself so much. He smiled wickedly and said, "Do you regret how you treated me? I begged you. I even bowed and groveled for a chance to work with you, but you showed me no mercy! Do you regret it now?""The only regret I have is loving you!" Cordy hissed as she met Kyle's eyes with her icy ones. "It makes me sick to think about that. I feel like throwing up!""Cordy Sachs!"Kyle's fist tightened, clearly angered by her words. With a firm grip, he grabbed Cordy's neck.Pain burst from her throat, and she felt a choking sensation as Kyle tightened his hold.If she died in Kyle's hands, she really wouldn't be able to rest in peace!However, she refused to beg for mercy and simply glared at Kyle with reddened eyes. If she died, she would remember his ugly mug of a face! If there were an afterlife, she would make sure he paid

Kyle said those words as if he had something to prove."What? Noel loves you?" Cordy scoffed. "Noel only loves what I have, and she has to steal everything I want.""Don't bother trying to drive a wedge between me and Noel-""Well then, why are the Sachs standing idly by while Jessop Corp is in crisis? If Noel loves you so much, why doesn't she get them to give you the capital injection you need?" Cordy shot back."Your father Simon’s the one who's being too materialistic. Noel even argued with him to try and help me," Kyle retorted."Oh? Is that so?" Cordy asked. "And has the outcome changed at all?""How could Noel possibly have the power to change Simon's mind?""Kyle, I have to say... You wouldn't have fallen into such ruin if you hadn't met Noel in this lifetime.""Cordy!" Kyle was humiliated by her sarcasm."Simon is a man who loves his reputation. While you're engaged to Noel, it’d be impossible for him to reject a request for help from you. Once it gets out that he did

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
