A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 417
The car continued to bump around rapidly.Inside, Cordy and Patrick were fully focused and unable to make small talk at all.Cordy stared through the window at the pitch blackness outside, unsure where they were heading.They seemed to be heading somewhere isolated, and they could not even recognize if they were on a mountain road or some route near a small town.There was simply nothing on both ends of the road, but the chauffeur continued to speed the car ahead, unable to stop at all.Their pursuers were giving chase relentlessly and would slam into them if the chauffeur slowed down, leaving everyone in the car in pieces.As such, the interior of the car was deathly silent, almost suffocatingly so.They could only hope that help would reach them in time.Otherwise…Suddenly, Cordy's face fell. Patrick and the chauffeur had the same look too.A truck suddenly sped out of nowhere in front of them, its glaring high beam flashing at their eyes directly.The chauffeur had to

William nodded subtly, and James tacitly understood.Holding up his phone, he said, "Good. Pull out."It was over. As he put away his phone, he turned and noticed Jessica watching him, and he gave her a nod.Jessica's smile could hardly be hidden.She then looked around, looking for John.After getting off the stage following the announcement of their wedding day, John excused himself to the washroom.Someone came along to offer her a toast, so she did not go along with John.It had been a while, too… Why was he not coming back yet?Jessica felt a foreboding sensation right then and rushed to the washroom to find John. She did not care at all about propriety and dashed into the men's room directly without a pause, searching fervently for any trace of John.But no, he was nowhere to be seen.Flustered, she rushed back to the ballroom, and everyone who saw that look on her face was left perplexed. As the host of such an occasion, her bearing certainly left her looking undig

James then reminded Jesssica, "We already have a backup plan, don't we?"Unable to argue, Jessica had to accept the situation as it was. The only thing she could do was pray that Cordy was dead and that John would only find a corpse when he arrived.The thought calmed Jessica a little!-John drove away from the building as soon as got out, and he kept calling Cordy repeatedly, but she never answered.He started to rush for the airport when he heard a violent collision along the road—he promptly threw his phone away and rushed in that direction, and he saw Patrick's car being pursued by several other cars from a distance.He floored the gas pedal and gave chase, but despite pushing the car to its top speed, he could not catch up and had to follow Patrick's car along the winding mountain road.Then, he heard another deafening collision that seemed to resound over the horizon.There were three cars up front, so he could not see what was happening up front.His hands were shaki

'Please, give me something!'Beside them, Patrick frowned and opened his eyes with considerable difficulty to see the light.The person carrying it was behind the light, and he therefore could not see who it was.Those shaking hands, however, seemed to give him an answer immediately."John?" he called out feebly.John gulped, but he could not say a word.Patrick in turn tried to move, but he could not muster his strength at all. At the same time, he was being squeezed against the car's wreckage and could not move at all."Cordy!" he called out loudly at the person beside him.Cordy actually felt light, as if she was floating in the clouds, and she wondered if she was already dead.Surely one would only feel this light in the afterlife.But at the next instant, she felt a cumbersome weight and slowly regained consciousness.Her head and the rest of the body hurt a lot, but she opened her eyes, looking blank when she saw the light."Are you alright?" Patrick asked her nervo

John wrapped his arms tightly around Cordy and carried her out of the car, but she was clenching her teeth while her whole body shook in pain.There was something keeping her foot in place, and it hurt whenever John tried to pull her out.He actually was afraid of using his full strength too, in fear that she had suffered some internal damage and that too much pressure would make it worse."Are you stuck?" he asked her very softly.They were huddled together, so Cordy could hear his heavy breathing as well as his racing heart.There was no hiding his worry."My right leg…" she murmured.John dropped to a crouch again to check and saw that it was stuck underneath the front seat where the unconscious chauffeur remained.He quickly smacked the man in the face—a far cry from how he was treating Cordy."Wake up," he snapped at the same time.The chauffeur had been out unconscious, but the external stimulus jolted him painfully awake.The instant he came to, he quickly called out,

As Cordy calmed down, she tried to move her leg and managed to do it so slightly.Then, she clenched his teeth, and the car groaned as John abruptly released the driver's seat, allowing it to fall heavily.At the same time, the chauffeur was panting.Cordy's heart was still racing—if she had been any slower, her leg would have been crushed beneath the seat again.She did not even want to imagine what would happen once the weight of the chair and the chauffeur slam down on her foot! However, the instant she heaved a sigh of relief, she saw that John's hands were caught beneath the driver's seat.It was too dark to see his face, but Cordy's heart was racing as she cried out in shock, "John!"She had no idea if he did not have the strength to get his hands out in time, or if John wanted to use his hands as a buffer for her leg in case she had not gotten her legs out.All she knew was that her vision was blurring, and she could not even see in front of her.Nonetheless, John with

Cordy bellowed furiously, "Let me go!""Now's not the time to get stubborn—argh!" John suddenly cried out in pain, as Cordy had bitten down on his neck so strongly he flinched.He did not release her, but she started to flail around violently in his arms.The slope was already hard to stand on, and as she relentlessly thrashed about, both of them ended up falling, though John quickly cushioned her fall and spared her from getting hurt.Regaining her freedom, she started to run toward the car wreck—it was all the more reason for them to save Patrick the more dire the situation was or he would be dead!Cordy ran quickly, even though her right leg was seriously hurt and she had just regained some of her feeling.Even if the pain seemed to cut her into the heart, she did not stop at all."Cordy!" John dashed forward and caught her, holding her firmly in place and stopping her from reaching the wreckage. Smack!She suddenly wheeled on him and slapped him across the face! Covered

Not many words were needed between both strong men.John swiftly climbed into the car and pressed the seat belt button to unfasten it as hard as he could, freeing Patrick.Then, without delay, he promptly pushed against the car door, which had pinned Patrick firmly in place.However, the car frame was dented so much that Patrick's body was virtually embedded into the door, and he would have been minced if the airbags did not shield his body."How is it?" Cordy was suddenly outside, asking John anxiously. "Can you get him out?!""Why did you come back?!" John bellowed, glowering.But he never stopped shoving against the door. He could not open it in case there was something sharp that had pierced Patrick's body. If he removed it, it might leave Patrick bleeding to death."I'll help," Cordy cried urgently then."No! Get out of here!" John snarled viciously at her."John!" she cried. "No, you really should go," Patrick urged her too. "I'm worried the man won't help if you don

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
