Lucas was alone, and Nana was not in sight.

Richard saw him too, and excitement showed in his eyes.

His enthusiasm never dampened whenever he saw Lucas—he did not talk to Lucas earlier at the hospital because the atmosphere there had been grim.

However, he refrained from going up to Lucas, and the thought that his daddy had abandoned his mommy made him upset again.

Lucas was actually surprised to see them there.

Should they not be staying at Cranston House?

Cordy was also surprised to see Lucas there, since he should be staying with the Lynds.

It was as if they would inevitably run into each other if they were in the same city…

"Ms. Sachs?" the front desk receptionist called out to Cordy just then. "Your room card..."

"I'm checking out," Cordy said determinedly right then.

Lucas clearly blinked just then.

"Checking out, Ms. Sachs?" the receptionist asked, to confirm what she said.

"Yeah. I'm not staying here," Cordy said bluntly.

"Oh, alright. One moment please," the r

    When Cordy heard Richard's voice, she immediately regained her wits. Her instinct made her exhaust all her strength, so she knew that she must have hurt Richard with her tight embrace. She let go of Richard. When Richard came out of Cordy's arms and turned around, his expression changed drastically. "Lucas!" He screamed in fear. On the other hand, Cordy's heart skipped a beat. The sudden pain filled her with suffocation at that instant. She abruptly turned around and saw Lucas who had collapsed on the ground. At that moment, the motorcycle that had lost control fell to the ground, and the driver fell to the side too. On the other hand, Lucas was crushed by the motorcycle. "Mister, are you okay?" The security guard immediately went to him. Some people also gathered around. Someone said, "It was so dangerous just now. If it wasn't for this man who stepped forward all of a sudden and turned the motorcycle around, countless people might have been hit and hurt." "I

    Lucas was only pushed out of the emergency room after two hours. Sitting in a wheelchair, his legs were plastered, and his head was bandaged. It seemed like his injuries were too serious. "How is he, doctor?" Cordy immediately asked. "His right leg is broken, and we've inserted a metal rod in it to stabilize it for two to three months. If there's no problem, he needs to rest for another three months after we take it out. He'll recover by then." "Will he become a lame person?" Cordy asked cautiously. Lucas then looked up at her. Did she want him to become a lame person?"Don't worry. He won't." The doctor sounded amiable before he continued, "But because there's a slight impact on his head, we suggest letting him stay for observation for a night. If he's fine tomorrow, he can be discharged from the hospital." "Okay, thank you, doctor." Cordy thanked the doctor. She finally heaved a huge sigh of relief inwardly. His injuries had something to do with her, no matter wh

    "Thank you, Mommy."Richard was never a person who was good at showing emotions, but he did not hide it at that time. Did he see Lucas as his daddy or a substitute? Cordy did not want to have conflicting emotions about it.Facing Lucas, she said, "If you're not fine with it…" "I'm fine with it." Lucas cut her off. "After all, there's another bed in this ward. Richard and I can sleep in that bed," Cordy suggested. The hospital beds in the VVIP ward were extraordinarily large. "Hmm." "What do you need now?" Cordy questioned. Since she decided to stay, she should take care of the patient. Regardless, she should be grateful to him, given what happened that night. She turned around to leave just now because she had promised Nana back then. She decided to stay now because of Richard. Of course, Richard was more important than Nana. "Nothing," Lucas answered. "Well, I'll let Dicky have a bath first. He's still growing, so he needs to sleep early." "Just do as y

    "Mommy, I'm done. Do you want to shower?" "Hmm." Cordy nodded and ordered, "Go to bed early." "Okay." After that, Cordy walked into the bathroom. On the other hand, Richard behaved well and slept on the accompanying bed beside Lucas. Covering himself with the blanket, he turned to look at Lucas. At that time, Lucas had turned his attention back to his phone again. However, he had clicked on a website for half an hour, but he did not scroll to another page. Other than the fact that their arrivals had made him absent-minded, which he could not pinpoint, he could see many baffling things appearing in his head. Even being hospitalized felt like deja vu. However, he could recall nothing even after he dwelled on it carefully. He had lost his memory three years ago. He remembered nothing after he woke up because of a car accident. Consequently, he found not a tinge of familiarity toward his so-called relatives and friends. They were just strangers to him. That kind o

    "If that's the case, you should get to know your true self earlier." Richard did not wait for Lucas' reply before he suggested again, "It's because you'll be filled with more regrets if you're more hesitant now." "I won't regret it." Lucas sounded firm. "Why are you still so stubborn?" Richard behaved like an adult. "Aren't you worried that my mommy will give you up?" "I originally had nothing to do with your mommy." "But you can't forget about my mommy. If not, why did you risk your life to save her?" Lucas inevitably swallowed slightly and answered, "Your mommy got into danger because of me. I was just returning the favor." "That's just your excuse." Richard sounded certain. "You're just a ten-year-old kid. What do you know?" Lucas pretended to say at ease, "Kids should study more and worry about less." "Hmph!" Richard became slightly angry because of Lucas' words. "I won't help you if you regret it." However, Lucas did not take it to heart. Lying under the bed, R

    It if was not for the fact that she suddenly made a noise, he would not have slipped and fallen. He nearly thought that he might die the moment he slipped and fell. Now, she was even putting up such an innocent look. Who was she trying to annoy? "Do you need my help?" Cordy tried to reconfirm it with him. "What do you think?" Lucas gnashed his teeth. He was in such a sorry state now. Did she want him to give up his dignity and crawl back up? Cordy was struck speechless. He sounded so righteous when he had a favor to ask. She got up, and carefully, she tried her best not to wake Richard up. She then walked to Lucas and worked hard to help him straighten the wheelchair. After that, she tried her best to help him up. He was so heavy. Were all men like that? He appeared slim, but he was as heavy as lead when he leaned on her. John was like that too... When she thought of John, excruciating pain hit her. Suddenly, she recalled the scene when John was hospital

    "It hurts so badly. I can't get up." Lucas sounded quite rude. Cordy took a deep breath and advised herself inwardly and repeatedly that Lucas was hurt because of her. She was too weak just now that she made him fall again. Hence, she decided not to be angry at him. She squatted and helped him up again. With her help, he almost leaned all his weight on her. She seriously doubted if he was purposely trying to take revenge on him. She finally helped him stand beside the toilet bowl. "Do you need me to take off your pants for you too?" "Cordy Sachs, you’re shameless!" Lucas became agitated. "Why are you so agitated all of a sudden?" Cordy was shocked by his sudden loudness. So, she flared up in a rage. "Did I see through your thoughts?" "Get out!" Lucas lashed out. Surprisingly, he did not have a comeback. Of course, Cordy did not notice that much either. She would always argue with him. Besides, she had never met a person who rendered her so helpless and speechl

    After she confirmed that he had put on his pants, she opened the door and walked in. Lucas was standing motionlessly in front of the toilet bowl in the washroom. He might have learned his lesson from his fall just now, so he did not dare to move impulsively now. Cordy gave him a hand, and he then leaned onto her without a tinge of embarrassment. He made use of her righteously. She then helped him into the wheelchair and pushed him into the ward. After exhausting herself again, she managed to help him to bed, and she was about to return to her bed to rest. However, Lucas stopped her out of the blue and called out, "Cordy." "Is there anything else?" "I suddenly feel like wiping my body." Cordy was at a loss for words. She wanted to ensure that she had not heard him wrongly. "You and Dicky smell so good from your bath, but I smell like nothing but sweat. I feel so uncomfortable, but I can't shower. Can't I wipe my body too?" Lucas became displeased by her stare, so h

    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?"

    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
