A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 794
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

The door creaked, and Dicky's voice could be heard as it opened. "Come in, Lucas. Mommy's not around anyway…"Just as he finished, he found Cordy seated on the couch and looking utterly pessimistic."Mommy?" Dicky gasped in surprise. "When did you come back?"Why didn't she call him after she did, or went looking for him?Lucas—no, John—was frowning at Cordy as well, and there was a slight displeasure in his tone. "Why didn't you say anything after you came back?"Cordy turned towards John, and wondered what he went through that he would make his face into that state.Her eyes welled with tears, which started to gush quietly; as if a dam had broken.She wondered for a moment if she would end up using up all the tears she had for the rest of her life.John was shocked by her reaction—had she always been so vulnerable? She certainly wasn't whenever they got into fights.Dicky was shocked too. "What's wrong, Mommy? Please, you're scaring me… Wait, was the test result a dud? T

Cordy wiped her tears subtly and worked hard to repress her emotions, and asked, "You haven’t eaten yet?""Have you?" John asked in return.She shook her head."Then what are you spacing out for? I've already booked a place at the restaurant. Come on," he said, and reached out to pull her up to her feet.Cordy's fingers twitched, her heart aflutter. John urging her to have dinner soon was just a nonchalant gesture on his part, and yet…The instant he touched her hand, she seemed to flinch, which left John with an indescribable emotion.He couldn’t even describe what he was feeling.Damn it! He was never this sharp towards her before, but now, every move and every gaze she had left his heart pounding uncontrollably.However, he didn’t let go of her, and actually held on tighter.Cordy didn’t turn him down either, and the trio left the room.Dicky was so happy, he could hardly hide his delight from his little face—his parents were finally getting back together, and their family

Cordy was afraid of imagining that John was still alive, but he really was… And yet, she was apprehensive all the sameWas this what they meant with 'win some, lose some'?!At the dining table, the waiters brought their respective steaks. Cordy had too much on her mind and ate very slowly, basically not tasting anything at all.That was when she saw John pick up her plate, swapping his with hers. Surprised, Cordy stared blankly at the steak which had been cut into tiny slices.John was actually surprised he would do that for her—he never took the initiative with anyone else.And yet, he couldn’t help it when Cordy was involved."Don't get any funny ideas," he said, though it was clear he was eager to please.Cordy couldn’t help smiling as she watched his terrible acting.John naturally noticed, and gave up on pretenses. "Fine, I just want to be nice to you and couldn't help it, because you’ve bewitched me. Is that good enough?"Cordy's smile broadened.For some reason, sh

John then began to recount how he started dating Nana. "I happened to run into Nana at the time. She was just about to get a heart transplant surgery with not much chance of success, around sixty to seventy."Cordy's fingers clenched on her wine glass—she hated it, but she also wanted to know his past."One of the care workers had wheeled me out on a stroll in the garden of the hospital. I looked like a mummy, with my whole face bandaged. She must’ve found my appearance amusing, so she approached me and asked what condition I had.""She spoke in Zidonian, and it gave me a sense of familiarity in contrast to my parents. Moreover, it's been a while since I just woke up from the accident. I basically never spoke to anyone… And yet, I talked to her a lot that day, and we learned about our respective situations.""That was when she said she’d date me if she survived the surgery. I said yes."John glanced at Cordy as he said that, and saw her calmly sipping her red wine, looking almost
