A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 935
Sean explained, "There was no disputing that John would be the perfect man for that job. I was amazed by his abilities in his confrontation against the Stuarts, and following further conversations at length, I became sure that he's the one I want.""But why won't you consider taking over leadership of the family?" Cordy remained curious about that.He was the eldest grandson, was at the right age, and had the strength for it. One might even say that the rest of the Cranstons had already tacitly acknowledged him in that capacity—even Paul, his uncle and a known troublemaker, would more or less defer to him.What reason could he have to delegate such a grand legacy to someone else?!Nonetheless, Sean simply smiled. "I think I'll pass on telling you my reasons, or that might ruin the amazing opinion you have of me.""Don't worry, you're not that amazing in my opinion.""But I'd still rather you afford me some dignity," Sean said bluntly, though it only made Cordy more interested."

Nana groaned, "But I want to get discharged soon. We're supposed to get married this week.""We can change the date," John told her."I refuse. It's so difficult to arrange this, and changing it might jinx things too.""Your health is more important.""I know my body," Nana snapped. "Getting married would only improve my health, and don't you remember what my former cardiologist said? I'd live well and longer if I'm in a good mood."John gave up right then. "It's your call.""Oh, I love you so much, Lucas." Nana reached out for his hand.His fingers clearly twitched, but he did not push her away.-The next day, Cordy went looking for John at the hospital in her wheelchair.Sean was worried about letting her go alone and insisted on coming along.They waited for John in his ward, since John spent most of his ward at Nana's ward.If he did not go, she would get out of bed to look for her, and she could not bear the exertion given her health.As such, he usually waited until

Cordy's eyes were welling up with tears even as she asked, "Can't you just call off the wedding?""No," John replied."You'll definitely regret it," Cordy told him solemnly."Even so, I'll marry Nana," John told her definitively.Cordy bit her lip—she had so much more to say, but she could not say them.John was frighteningly determined, and she could not persuade him at all.There was nothing she could do."Don't waste your time on me." John remained unmoved by her misery. "I'm not worth it."With those words, he turned to leave, completely cold toward Cordy.Cordy ultimately could not stop the tears streaming down her cheeks.She always thought herself strong and was prepared for John's rejection.But if John really was that easy, Nana would not have to push him this far.And now, each time John was being cruel to her, it felt like her heart was cut to the quick…She did not even see Sean chasing down John, snapping icily at him across the walkway in the hospital, "John

Cordy did not argue, since she understood Sean's concern. Once John married Nana, Nana would have a million different ways to humiliate her no matter how she tried to cling on to John. That was why she must stop the wedding.-Sean found himself genuinely impressed by Cordy's perseverance as she headed to the hospital again the next day.She was just so cruelly rejected yesterday and clearly moody, but once the day changed, she seemed rejuvenated and motivated again.He went with Cordy, and they were just arriving at John's ward when they saw him stepping outside.He appeared surprised when he saw Cordy, surprised that she had returned so soon."Cordy—""Don't get so full of yourself. I'm not here for you." Cordy cut him short, turning her face away in true tsundere fashion.John pursed his lips, while Sean appeared stunned as he stood beside Cordy.So, today's plan was playing hard to get?!It was certainly unorthodox, but Sean was convinced that it would not work either

"Of course." Nana did not hesitate—she always got what she wanted no matter who stood in her way."Let's discuss terms," Cordy said bluntly."Us?""Yes." Cordy nodded.Nana hesitated. She knew for a while that Cordy was no pushover, but she was not afraid of Cordy—Cordy was the one who lost whenever they clashed, after all."Fine." Nana agreed to it just then, somehow interested in what Cordy was up to.Cordy then turned to John and Sean. "Please clear the room." Both of them frowned but left the room, leaving just Cordy and Nana."Speak," Nana told Cordy while watching her calmly."I'm sure you know a lot about me by now."Nana raised a brow. "In what way?""Every way," Cordy replied confidently. Nana pursed her lips—she certainly did, since Cordy was the enemy."So you'd know what I'm like. I can dazzle even if I've been dealt a bad hand, without any help."Nana raised a brow again. "Are you threatening me?" "Not quite, but I guess I'm telling you that I'm not as

Having come to an agreement, Cordy did not linger and strode out of Nana's ward.John and Sean were standing in the corridor, with a great distance between them.It was obvious they could not stand each other… or to be precise, Sean could not stand John."You done?' Sean asked."Yeah.""What did you talk about?" Sean asked in curiosity."I'll tell you later. Let's head back for now."Sean refrained from asking right then and walked over to wheel Cordy away, passing by John who watched them.Like every other moment he was left watching Cordy left, he clenched his fists…"Lucas," Nana called out to him just then.John withdrew his gaze and headed inside her ward.She watched him and asked, "Don't you want to know why Cordy wanted to talk to me?"John had been getting quieter around her ever since Cordy showed up, as if he no longer cared about her."You'd tell me if you wanted to tell me. It's pointless even if I asked if you don't," John said indifferently.One could feel

Cordy called John early next morning, her heart racing since she was not sure if he unblocked her.Fortunately, the call got through."Cordy.""Nana must have told you yesterday, right? You belong to me for the next two days." Cordy's tone was a little shrill.John unwittingly clenched on his phone.He belonged to her…He gulped but asked, "Where are you?""What, no resistance?""It's no loss if you agree not to bother us forever after that," John said coolly.Cordy restrained her rage and said, "I'm on the first floor of the hospital. Come down right now."With that, she hung up.On the other end, while John put away his phone, Nana asked, "Is Cordy here?""Yeah.""Two days. You must come back before midnight tomorrow," Nana said determinedly. "Otherwise, you'd know what happens."John said nothing, though his silence was an acknowledgment most of the time.Nana was used to his quietness as well and watched as he left.After that, she picked up her phone and snapped,

Cordy was fuming—how could John still pay attention to other stuff?She was dying here, but he did not care at all!Taking a deep breath to calm down, she told Max the chauffeur, "Shake them off.""Yes, Ms. Sachs." Max was a racing driver who competed in the higher echelons, and it took him just around half an hour to shake their tail off.However, he had been driving too quickly, weaving in and out of narrow alleys and powersliding through corners, and Cordy was left carsick right then.Clutching her mouth, she mumbled, "Stop somewhere. I need to vomit.""Okay," Max replied and promptly stopped the car by the road.Cordy opened the door and started vomiting with a loud 'blargh'.Naturally, vomiting once was not quite enough—she kept vomiting over several consecutive times. She had lost sleep the entire night last night, and being carsick while lethargic was twice more uncomfortable. "Drink some water."Cordy suddenly looked up to find John holding an opened bottle of mi
