A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 836
Nana quickly pulled John along and walked away. "I'm sorry. You're Cordy's boyfriend, right? Do you remember me? We met in North City before.""Nope," Patrick was not holding back. "My heart only remembers Cordy."Cordy could throw up right then—how much more cringeworthy could he get?!Nana was immediately praiseful. "Wow, you're an amazing guy. Cordy must be happy to have a boyfriend like you.""You're doing well too. Didn't your boyfriend bring you here over something trivial?" Patrick scoffed.Nana pretended not to hear his derision. "Yeah, he is. I don't want anyone but him.""Keep those cringe parts to yourselves," Patrick said, unable to stand her right then and turning to Cordy. "What are we doing here? Weren't we visiting your grandfather?"Sean came to his senses right then and quickly said, "Take care, Nana. I'm going to check on my grandfather.""Okay. Bye, everyone.""Bye."While they filed into the elevator, Cordy saw John turn to look at her, but he stayed sile

However, John knew very well how he felt about Cordy—never had he felt such overwhelming emotion, as if it had been pent-up within him for years and now unstoppable after it had been unleashed.His heart would race just from remembering Cordy, and he would feel a terrible yearning to see her and the impulse to keep her constantly by his side.He had never felt that way toward Nana before, and he understood that he was not infatuated.This was an obsession of a lifetime, which was why he was determined to break up with Nana—it was better to be hurt for a moment than forever, and he was certainly reluctant to be hesitant, which would only cause more damage in time.Still, he could admit that he felt like he owed Nana, and he decided he would not refuse her if she ever came to him for help—but he refused to be coerced into staying in this relationship.That was why he was unmoved despite all of Nana's attempts to convince him otherwise… But when he returned to the hotel afterwards an

John woke up in the hospital with the Lynds surrounding him along with a feeble Nana.The bandages wrapped around her wrists was all too obvious.Keith had wanted to give John a beating after he woke up, furious that he broke up with Nana and made her try to kill herself, but it was Nana who stopped Keith, putting her body between them despite her vulnerable state.Even if John was spared a beating, Keith threatened him that if he hurt Nana again, neither him nor Cordy would ever leave the capital, telling him not to challenge the limits of his patience again and to stay at the hospital with Nana.Nana had lost a lot of blood when she slit her wrists, and the doctors were suggesting that she stay for further observation.She kept apologizing throughout, claiming that she did not expect such harshness from her father. She kept telling him how he loved her and could not live without him, and she did not want this but just could not control herself.John never responded, and Nana di

As Nana leaned her head gently over Lucas' shoulder, he continued to give her the silent treatment.Right now, he needed time to come up with a way so everyone could walk away without grievances.Likewise, Nana needed time to accept his departure.However, that was certainly not what Nana thought—she had no intention to let him leave at all.Everything she wanted since she was a child, she would possess them without fail.And men were no different.She got what she wanted, or she would destroy it—that was her principle in life.Just like how 'walking away' did not exist in her vocabulary.- At the hospital, Cordy and Sean took turns visiting Jesse.Their grandfather's complexion had improved over the last few days thanks to therapy. Anyone who did not know that he was unconscious would easily buy that he was just asleep.The doctors also agreed that he was getting better and might wake up in a few days.They had been saying that for days, however, and it got a little frust

Patrick was glowering.Sean was unquestionably an obstacle on his path to love and was truly despicable.Nonetheless, Sean suddenly asked Patrick, "Where to?"Patrick did a double take, stunned by the sudden question.Why was he being so polite?Still, he growled grumpily, "I don't know my way around.""Then I'll make the arrangements."Patrick actually expected nothing from Sean's arrangements, and it would be basic at best.He was therefore surprised when Sean arranged an itinerary for an entire day. It was not the one where they just idled to pass the time either, but a reasonably arranged trip.Their first stop was a famous ancient site in the capital. It was interesting when they first visited, but it could get boring if they just walked around, which was why Sean arranged for a good tour guide to tell them all about the place.The next stop was to the restaurant with the capital's best local cuisine. Naturally, they might get drowsy after filling their stomachs, so Sean

Cordy and Patrick were surprised by what Sean said, since they presumed that they would be leaving by cable car.Naturally, there was a 60% chance there would not be cable cars available, and they could not tell if the cable cars were still operating. The only options in that case would be hiking off the mountain or staying the night on the mountain. It never crossed their mind that Sean would directly arrange for a helicopter to take them home, and the arrangement was undoubtedly better.They came here on a while without bringing clothes or anything else to stay the night. Suddenly staying was naturally a little uncomfortable.Moreover, it was very cold at this hour even with cable cars, and frosting might occur on the cables.And if they walk on foot, their legs might give up before they do.On the other hand, a helicopter would afford them yet another admiration of the mountains' beauty and the infinite vastness of the horizon.Cordy actually wondered if she did not know S

Patrick gestured at himself eager to liven things up. "Come on. Do your worst."Finding him childish, Richard simply ignored him.Sean could not stand it right then. How did Patrick even manage to survive in the political scene? With that personality of his, his rivals would eat him up and spit him out at any moment!Nonetheless, he suddenly kicked out a wave, splashing it at Patrick and hitting him in the face."Hey! Are you a kid? I wasn't playing with you!" Patrick snapped grumpily."Look who's talking, thirty-year-old who acts like a ten-year-old.""Are you mocking me?""What do you think?""Fuck!" Patrick shrieked even as he kept splashing Sean repeatedly. "I've had it with you! You stood in my way for love, and you're now interfering with me bonding with my future son?! You really have a lot of free time, don't you?!"Sean was naturally not to be trifled with, and he promptly retaliated with even more splashes at Patrick.All at once, the modest-sized pool was filled
A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 843
Being caught off guard, Sean choked on several mouthfuls of water vigorously. He got up angrily and looked at Patrick, who had gotten away with his scheme. "All's fair in fights." Patrick failed in the water fight he had with Sean just now to the point he could not even open his eyes. Of course, he had to take revenge. "Ah!" Patrick was only smug for less than two seconds, for Sean abruptly pressed Patrick's body into the water. It was beyond Patrick's imagination that Sean was so cunning, so he choked on several mouthfuls of water until his face was flushed. "Pfft!" Sean laughed coldly. He looked down at Patrick. Of course, Patrick could not stand being provoked by Sean. He stepped forward and was about to fight against Sean. Richard was near them at first, but now he hurriedly took a few steps back for fear that he would be harmed when they got into a fight later. He could not figure out why they were so childish to that extent given that they were grown-ups.

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
