A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 550
John walked into the old, deserted factory. He was not being overly cautious. There was a faint light in the factory. Jessica was there. When he entered the place, he found her sitting on an old chair. She seemed to be waiting for him. Besides, she was not at all surprised by his appearance. She felt that John would find her. However, she did not care even if he failed to find her. She had decided to cut one of Dicky's fingers to gift to John and Cordy. However, Jessica narrowed her eyes slightly. She was slightly annoyed since she did not see Cordy. How could John suffer through that incident alone? Cordy was the culprit, so she should suffer retribution the most. At that moment, Jessica remained quiet. She stared straight at John and smiled brightly. On the other hand, John remained quiet too, and he silently sized up everything in the place. There were three bodyguards there other than Jessica. Two of them were standing beside her with weapons in their ha

"Yes," John admitted, "To me, Cordy is the most important.""What gives her the right to be so loved by you, yet I'm nothing to you?! I've been by your side for so many years, and I'm willing to forsake even my dignity for you. Why can't I compare to Cordy? Why am I inferior to her?!" Jessica yelled hysterically.She did not understand it at all.She did not understand why she lost."There need not be a reason for love. In fact, if I could state the reason why I love, that might not be love at all." Compared to Jessica's agitation, John was terrifyingly calm. "I'll just tell you one thing: I want no one else but Cordy in my entire life!""You want no one else but Cordy…" Jessica broke out into laughter.Unbridled laughter tinged with hopelessness. "What if I told you that I'll never let you and Cordy be together your entire life?""Loving someone doesn't mean possessing someone. Jessica, I can only say that your love is too selfish," John said coldly."Selfish? Yes, I am self

They came together only for the sake of personal gain.What affections did they have for each other?They only knew self-preservation in the face of trouble.For example, this time, since evidence pointed toward her and her brother, they were doomed to be scapegoats this time, while her grandparents and parents busied themselves with thinking about how to escape unscathed.That was reality—the reality of her family.Therefore, she truly believed that John could possibly abandon Richard when he was forced into a corner.As John himself said, he could also have many other sons with Cordy.Richard would one day be forgotten in their own world.And instead of gaining an advantage, she would only end up sacrificing herself in her attempt at revenge.John turned to look at Jessica, who glared viciously back at him."Finally giving in?" she quipped sarcastically.How cold-blooded could John really be? He ultimately chose to sacrifice himself to save Richard, didn't he?John didn

Indeed.Cordy had been waiting outside all along.She knew that she should not have come here and that she should have trusted John to save Richard, but she was not as calm and composed as she thought she could be. When it concerned the two most important people in her life, she found herself unable to stand idly by and do nothing. So she decided to come.She entered under Jessica's malicious threat.She saw the worry etched in the depths of John's eyes, the fear written all over Richard's face, and the smug look in Jessica's eyes. If she could take their place and save them, she would be willing to do it.Step by step, she walked toward John."I'm sorry," Cordy apologized.John swallowed past his constricted throat.He was not angry at her ruining his pace, but rather, he was very scared of the choice that Cordy would make!Given how smart Cordy was, she probably knew the reason why Jessica let her in. "This is great. Now we have everyone here," Jessica declared with a

She could not bear to let go of Richard so quickly, but reason told her that now was the time for her to linger on.She whispered in Richard's ear, "Don't bother about anything else and don't turn back. Leave this place and find Randy."Richard looked up at Cordy, who looked back at him with determination and assurance in her eyes.Richard ran to the main entrance, and Jessica's face turned dark.Just when she was about to speak, Cordy stood up. "John and I haven't left. Isn't that enough for you?Jessica's eyes turned cold as she saw Richard walk out of the place, but she knew that Cordy was right.She had abducted Richard with the aim of getting John and Cordy.To her, killing Richard was not important at all.Either way, she never expected herself to live for much longer.Therefore, she did not care whether Richard would grow up and take revenge on her for his parents' sake, and she had no qualms about letting Richard leave.Cordy finally felt relief when Richard disappear

"Do you really think I'll agree to your request?" Jessica asked Cordy."You have no reason not to," Cordy was certain."Hah," Jessica sneered, "No wonder John loves you so much and is so mesmerized by you. If you hadn't appeared, how could things become like this between John and I, and how could my family end up in such a plight? Cordy, you are right. You are the culprit and I have no reason to reject you.""Then let John go and I'll die with you," Cordy said with determination. "But I refuse!"Cordy's face darkened."The more you want something, the more I won't let you have it! I want you to see John die right in front of you and live with regret your entire life. Sometimes, living is more painful than dying. Don't you think so, Cordy?!" Jessica asked wickedly."No. Time heals all wounds. Right now, I love John and will be sad about his death. But what about one year later, or even ten?! It took me less than a year to forget about Kyle. How faithful do you think I'll remain

Was she destined to just look at the two of them being there for each other through life and death?!"Save your breath, Cordy. I know what you're thinking. You just want to provoke me into letting John go and choosing to die with you. I'm telling you, that's impossible! No matter what, whether your death is the greatest punishment for John or if your death is the best outcome for me, I'll never release John. Yes, I'll never let him go for the rest of my life! I must have him even if I die!"Jessica finally blurted out her goal.Her premise in exacting revenge was to get what she wanted.Since she was unable to get John while she was alive, she would be with him in her death.It was pointless no matter how much Cordy tried to convince her. Jessica's only choice had always been John, even if it meant that it spared Cordy from dying with her.That was the only way she could be with John without anybody intervening. Cordy's eyes were red with unshed tears—she knew very well that

Jessica, along with all her bodyguards, brought John out through the back door of the old factory. Cordy instinctively wanted to follow, but Jessica yelled in fury, "Don't follow us!"Jessica was clearly on the brink of collapse, and Cordy stopped dead in her tracks."Don't come and bother me and John! Cordy, you're not fit! Scram!"Cordy bit her lip and looked at John.Even the look in John's eyes warned her not to follow behind them. Cordy's vision blurred.Was this goodbye forever?!John left with Jessica, and the moment Cordy saw them disappear, she could not help but chase after them. The back door was locked from outside and she could not open it no matter how she tried.Cordy dared not stop, and she immediately turned around to leave. Randy was outside, as anxious as she was, and he lunged forward the moment he saw Cordy step out. "Mrs. Levine."Richard was with Randy who had been watching over him."Mommy." When Cordy heard Richard calling out to her, she tri

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
