Seeing that Cordy was silent for a long while, Sean called out to her."Cordy?"Cordy shook her head. "It's my personal problem. I'll handle it."Sean sighed. "I know you will—you’re as rational as you’re smart since I've known you, and there's nothing that can stand in your way. I'm the one who needs your advice in a great many things, but that’s precisely why I think you need someone to depend on. You're isolating yourself. Being too independent means you're also the one who gets hurt the most."Sean earnestly wished that Cordy could let down her guard and really open her heart, so that she didn’t have to live under so much pain.Ultimately said nothing, once again choosing to take everything upon herself. -A week later, Patrick left the capital and Cordy saw him off at the airport.He was actually reluctant to leave, but he was stubborn and kept saying things like he didn’t know when the next time he would have free time, that he would be busy and the like.While Cordy co

Cordy actually wondered when she could let go of the past.Soon, perhaps?After sending off Patrick, she returned to the car Sean arranged for her and returned to Cranston Hall.She didn’t bring Dicky along to the airport since she expected to head back soon after seeing Patrick off, just as she did not want Dicky to have to keep running around with her.She reclined against the backseat, looking up at the blue skies of the capital. Her phone then rang, and she checked the caller before answering it."Have you sent off Patrick Stuart?" Sean asked casually."I just did. I'm on my way back now.""Actually, you should head to the hospital right now," Sean suggested. "I'm rushing there right now—I just released news that Grandpa regained consciousness.""Okay," Cordy agreed."See you later.""Yeah."Hanging up, Cordy told the chauffeur, "The hospital, please.""Okay," the chauffeur replied respectfully.-Most of the Cranstons had reached the hospital when Cordy did, and th

Cordy left with Sean without looking back, but she could feel a certain pair of eyes fixed on her.She smiled in irony—what was the point in staring at her like that, when he didn’t call or text to explain himself?-As they returned to their car, Sean said, "Now that we've set the bait, we just have to wait for our quarry to take it.""Yeah." Cordy nodded.Their plan was simple—to force the hand of the culprit. If the culprit wanted Jesse Cranston dead, he or she would definitely make another attempt since the first one failed.And now, their people are stationed at the hospital, waiting for the culprit to fall for it…"Watch out!"Sean was suddenly yelling at the chauffeur, who jammed his foot on the brake in his shock at that very moment.The chauffeur had been driving straight ahead despite the traffic light flashing red, and a motorbike happened to be bounding forward from the side. They would definitely crash into each other if the chauffeur kept going."I'm sorry," h

The first collision was on the car's engine compartment, and everyone inside would at worst suffer cuts from bruises. But if the car streaking towards Cordy's side of the car would crash into them, it would most definitely kill her.Nonetheless, the chauffeur gritted his teeth and used the last shred of his strength to swerve the car, sending it into a powerslide.Bang! The car coming from the side struck their hood and rocked their car violently, leaving it a crumpled heap of metal while the airbags into the car all popped open.The trio in the car all fainted from the violent crash, and the traffic on the road quickly built into a congestion.A certain black car was stuck halfway due to the traffic jam ahead as well."What happened?" Nana asked. "Why’s there suddenly a traffic jam?"It was just her, her chauffeur and John in the car.They didn’t stay at the hospital for long. It was as Sean had said—the doctors forbade them from entering Jesse's ICU ward, so Jean didn’t keep

John dashed at top speed, and soon arrived at the wreckage.The three-car pile-up was pure carnage, and there was already a huge crowd standing around the scene.When John saw the car in the middle that was in pieces, and the car plate that was barely hanging on…No.She wasn’t in the car.She couldn’t be.But that really was Sean's car, which he used to drive Cordy around when she was in the capital.John couldn't care less and charged through the crowd, and leaned over the car window to get a look inside.Unfortunately, there were too many cracks for him to see clearly.He gritted his teeth and punched it, but it did not shatter. It was bulletproof glass, and it didn’t break despite the initial crash.John didn’t drag his feet and turned, heading towards the nearest car and asking the driver urgently, "Get me a hammer."Most cars had one in case of emergencies, and the driver quickly brought him his.John dashed back to the black Roll Royce, found a good spot on the win

Sean told John, "Cordy's leg is stuck between her door and the front seat. Her safety belt is also jammed.""Okay, got it." John promptly turned towards the crowd nearby. "Anyone have anything sharp? A knife? Even a fruit knife?!"The crowd around them were restlessly gathering around the wreckage, but was afraid to get involved since the accident looked terrible and the victims probably did not survive.However, they were eager to look around when they heard something was needed.A man soon returned with a two-thumb wide fruit knife. "Will this do?""Sure.""Yes."John took the knife and soon returned to the car, deflating Cordy's airbag a little before cutting Cordy's seatbelt as hard as he could.Although the seatbelt was very thick, John never stopped cutting.Sean could see John’s palm turning red.He doubted that John would go that far if the latter didn’t love Cordy."Lucas!"They both heard Nana screaming for John. She had hesitated in her car for a long while, bu

John didn’t care about anything just to save Cordy, even himself?!Feeling abandoned, Nana glared viciously at him as the vile thought of Cordy dying suddenly occurred to her.If Cordy would just die right then, no one could take John away from Nana. At that moment, the savagery in Nana’s eyes only grew stronger.Meanwhile, John remained oblivious to her growing hatred as he crawled inside and tried to move the seat up front. Alas, it didn’t budge. There was no way to get Cordy out as the seat kept her stuck in place, along with the door beside her.John told himself to calm down, and that he was definitely getting Cordy out.He inspected the interior of the car, and realized that he might be able to pull Cordy out from Sean's side of the car."I'll get you out first," John told Sean, making his decision right there and then."Okay." Sean didn’t turn him down or ask questions. John definitely wouldn’t give up when he wanted to save Cordy that badly.John cut off Sean's seat

Cordy felt her tears streaming down her cheeks, unstoppable no matter what she did…And then, she suddenly felt pain—an unbearable pain that cut her quickly.She opened her eyes with much difficulty, her vision a dizzy blur. She had no idea if she was in a dream, or if she had returned to reality.It was probably the latter… Why else would it hurt so much?But if it was reality, why was she seeing John? His face was contorted, as if he was doing something with full strength… Her eyes then narrowed when she suddenly noticed red blood dripping down on her cheek; the sensation was no different from when her tears wet her cheeks in her dream."John…" she rasped, her voice so hoarse she almost couldn’t speak at all.She suddenly remembered that moment three years ago, when she was caught in an accident as serious as this one.She was in the car with Patrick at the time, and it was also John who saved her.He had always come to save her.Her vision began to blur once again, so

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
