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
A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 425
Cordy stood and stared blankly at the burning wreckage. They were not getting out.Why were they not getting out?!-In the wreckage, Patrick was astonished to find John returning a second time.They could all get killed in an instant, but he came back anyway.They were not that close enough to be that selfless—in short, John was doing this for Cordy.John really loved that woman—more than Patrick would give him credit for.Meanwhile, the fire was growing, and the scalding heat could already be felt within the car. "Don't you fear death?" Patrick could not resist asking John just then.John did not answer.Patrick nodded knowingly in turn. "I guess it makes sense, since she would remember you forever if you died for her sake.""I don't need her to remember—I just don't want her to be sad," John snapped coolly even as he panted. "There's no time to check if there's anything lodged in your body. I have to open the door right now or we would all be dead.""Okay." Patrick no
