Dicky was actually a little surprised—his daddy used to consider him nothing but a brat, but the man now treated him like an equal.He had wanted to win his father’s acknowledgment for a while, but his daddy was just too formidable. Thus, he couldn’t do much.However, the one thing he might be better than his daddy was in making his mommy happy."What do you think?" Lucas replied, as if it was only natural. "Okay. I’ll come by later.""Sure."And with that, they agreed to meet. Meanwhile, Cordy didn’t even get a word in.In fact, Dicky couldn’t wait to leave. "Mommy, I want to go play with Lucas!""I'm worried about leaving you alone with a stranger," Cordy said, finally getting a reasonable excuse."Lucas isn't a stranger—he's Daddy," Dicky said with conviction.Cordy kept staring at him in silence, and he gave in. "Fine, he's not at the moment. But he's no stranger either—we've met many times.""Do you know this is how human traffickers kidnap children?'Dicky was a litt
When Cordy tapped into the camera, she never expected to see Dicky helping Lucas shower.Her eyes were burning from the not-quite family-friendly scene. And what does Lucas take her son for, ordering him around like that?!Cordy was reeling from rage, even as the scene of the screen left her flushing. How could that man be so shameless?Cordy promptly turned off the screen, but not before having a clear view of the scene before her.It therefore remained clear and stuck in her mind…Hold on.Cordy's eyes narrowed, and her cheeks which reddened from anger and embarrassment slowly turned pale.She remembered Lucas's appearance, and felt a pang of familiarity.Her hands were shaking as she turned on the camera again, but Lucas had already changed into a bathrobe and Dicky was helping him out of the bathroom.Cordy's heart was racing, as she felt skeptical and was afraid of holding any expectations. She feared she couldn’t suffer the pain of disappointment.And yet… Was the
Growling through his teeth, Lucas demanded, "Are you that much of a pervert, Cordy?!"Forget stripping his bathrobe—she was trying to pull off his boxes, all while Dicky was watching! His cheeks were so hot one could cook an egg on it; though he knew he shouldn’t see it, he couldn’t pry his eyes away from curiosity…Stop. Lucas quickly realized his thoughts had strayed too far off, and this was far from the point—he was supposed to be stopping Cordy from taking off his boxers!Cordy in turn came to her senses, as if she finally realized what she was actually doing…but all she wanted was the truth!On the other hand, she meant nothing to Lucas, especially since she was molesting her while repeatedly claiming that she despised him before."Are you possessed or something?!" he demanded, and firmly tried to push her away.But she held fast, because she wanted the truth—to find out if Lucas was John Levine.The thought filled her chest with agony and she remembered John, but the
Lucas had never experienced such a move from Cordy.He was in his wheelchair, and with one of his hands keeping a tight grip on his boxers, he couldn’t push her away with his free hand. All he could feel at that moment was her wild, searing kiss.It wasn’t as if they had never kissed before. That one time, he couldn’t resist doing it as Cordy was reeling from rage back then.What was more, that time felt totally different from this kiss…because right now, he had no desire to push her away.In fact, he was starting to get hot and bothered.Even if Cordy was awful at kissing, and one might describe it as rough and uncouth—his heart was beginning to beat endlessly with a sense of anticipation he couldn’t describe. No! He must not fall for this woman's seduction! Lucas warned himself then that he had a girlfriend, and this behavior was cheating.His morals wouldn’t allow it!Yet even as he was about to push her off for good, his body suddenly stiffened. Did she… Did she just
Dicky mentioned that Lucas was amnesiac… So, that was true? Was he hit in the head and subsequently lost his memories when the bomb struck?He had reconstructive surgery on the face because it was necessary, since he was terribly wounded there.But Lucas's dossier that Sean had given her…it couldn’t have been fake.What on earth had gone wrong? Was this man John Levine or not?! Nonetheless, Cordy's tears started streaming as if she had lost herself—she was feeling so conflicted, and she was unsure if she should be happy or agonized."Hey, you don't have to go that far!" Lucas was shocked by her sudden crying.In previous confrontations, neither of them really came up on top… But now, Cordy was there in front of him, crying!He didn’t say anything out of line today, either!Usually, he would’ve paid her back in full, especially since they used to be constantly at each other's necks. Yet now, he was speechless to see her suddenly crying. "Look, you're the one who molested me a
Lucas continued his rant, his anger rising steadily the entire time. "I have a fiancee and we're supposed to get married soon, and we've been together for three years! Somehow, that’s no match for the three months I’ve met you, and now, I’m going to be scum! Fuck! What is it about you that draws me to you, that I’d fall so hard for you?!"He was blaming Cordy for everything, even though she was always so harsh to him and never tried to seduce him—ever.Yet he fell for her, anyway. Was he some sort of masochist?! "Say something!" he snarled furiously, feeling a little creeped out as Cordy continued to gape at him.Cordy came to her senses, since her mind was still processing whether Lucas was John Levine.Everything he said never crossed her mind, and it was certainly not the fact that he was engaged."Say what?" she asked blankly.Lucas almost had a heart attack.She managed to bewitch him after coming over to seduce him, and now, she wasn’t going to claim responsibility?!
Lucas was absolutely livid. "You better explain yourself, Cordy! Why the hell did you take my hair—"He looked up, only to find that Cordy was already gone.Fuck! Lucas could blow up from sheer rage—she left right after she was done flirting? Where was her sense of responsibility?!He rushed straight into the bathroom, dousing himself with cold water to cool off. -On the other hand, Cordy wasn’t actually as calm as she appeared as she left Lucas's room.In fact, she was worried she would lose control.Now, the priority was to confirm Lucas's identity with no uncertainty.Dicky's paternity test failed before, but the boy claimed that the sample was the issue. She didn’t think much of it at the time, and was convinced that he was just being obsessed.But at this very moment, she believed Dicky completely.She returned to her hotel room to find Dicky on the couch, watching TV.He beamed when he saw her return. "Welcome back, Mommy."Cordy stared at him, her fingers clenc
It was past work hours at the DNA test center, but naturally, Sean could make the arrangements.They also worked fast, and the result came in under two hours.Sean held out the document folder to Cordy, who looked visibly nervous."Is it really that bad?" Sean asked in surprise, since Cordy always kept her emotions hidden.Even if Dicky didn’t resemble Cordy, he really doubted if they weren’t related, considering the striking resemblance in their mannerisms."Should I read it to you?" Sean offered, considering her reaction."No," Cordy said firmly, taking the folder and slowly opening it.Sean looked over her shoulder to read it out of curiosity, and they both saw it. [99.99% chance of biological connection between subjects.]In other words…Cordy's eyes immediately turned red, and utterly so. The immense emotional turmoil overwhelmed her.She had actually considered the possibility that Lucas was John Levine.Before, both Dicky and Zoe insisted that he was, just as she
