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
"Your legs…" "I'm fine," Cordy replied with great certainty. "Okay, get up and eat," John suggested. He also got up to walk out. "John." Cordy stopped him. John turned around in a very natural manner. Facing her gaze, he said calmly, "Well, I'll let you call me like that if you want. After all, it's just these two days." A tinge of disappointment overcame her. For a moment, she thought he remembered everything. "Is there anything else?" John asked indifferently. "My legs are hurt. Can you carry me?" "Isn't there a wheelchair here?" "But I can't get out of bed." "How did you get into bed?" "Is it very difficult to carry me for a while? I'm not fat." Cordy flared up in a rage. She felt that it was very hard and tiring to speak to him. Why was he so annoying after he lost his memory? She wondered if she could get his old self back. John was hesitant for a while. After that, he bent down and carried her from the bed. She was fuming with anger in the pr
John became silent again, keeping quiet once they came to the main point. Cordy bit her lips and forced herself to say nothing more about that. She finally got a chance to be alone with John, so it could not be ruined because of Nana. "Let's go. I want to go back now," Cordy said lightly. Hence, John pushed her back to the hotel villa, which was very large with many rooms both upstairs and downstairs. Cordy was staying downstairs because it was inconvenient for her to move around, while John wanted to go upstairs. "John." Cordy stopped him. "It's getting late. You can go to bed early," John reminded her. Cordy could feel that he always kept his distance from her. "We can sleep together," Cordy said directly. "Cough! Cough!" John choked at Cordy's sudden words. "Are you excited?" Cordy chuckled. "Stop dreaming about that. We'll sleep separately." John turned her down. "Are you afraid that you can't hold back?" Cordy tried to instigate him. "This kind of min
John carried her back to the room and roughly placed her on the soft large bed after.However, he did not leave after putting her down. Their eyes met just like that. The surrounding air gradually became thin. At the same time, their breathing became more rapid. John inevitably swallowed. Many things could happen at that time, but none of them made any extra moves. They just looked at each other that way…Holding his neck, Cordy felt her heartbeat quicken. She felt like she almost could not take it anymore. However, John could remain unmoved. She gritted her teeth.At first, she simply wanted to spend more time with him. After all, he was still engaged with another. He had Nana…However, she had to admit that she was impulsive now. She eagerly wanted to have sex with him. She did not believe it herself. It was fine if she did not think about Nana. When she thought of Nana, she wanted nothing but to go all out with John. It was at this moment that she made
"John!" Cordy grabbed his arm. "It's unfair for you," John said with self-restraint. "It doesn't matter," Cordy replied very firmly. She would not regret anything that happened tonight regardless of their future and the result. "I'm sorry." John pushed her hand away, but she exerted great strength until her fingernails were stabbed into his skin. Her eyes full of tears, her gaze was asking him to stay, but he was unmoved. He pushed her away and left her side. Cordy soon burst into tears. Gradually, her tears fell on her pillow. John picked up his phone and walked to the balcony. It was a call from Nana. He just watched his phone ring endlessly, but he did not pick it up. He quietly adjusted his feelings and made himself slowly cool down. Nana kept on calling him. John knew Nana very well. She would insist on doing the thing she wanted. If he did not pick up her calls, she would keep on calling him. She would not give up.After taking a deep breath, h
Cordy just watched him quietly. She could no longer see any emotions on his aloof face. He was on the verge of losing control just now, but currently, he was frighteningly calm. "Let me run the bath for you." John walked straight to the bathroom after gaining no reply from her. Cordy looked down and put away all the emotions in her heart silently. After running the bath for her, he walked out of the bathroom and carried her from the sofa. Cordy looked at his cold handsome face.After putting her in the bathroom, he said, "Call me if anything happens. I'll be out there." After that, he left. Cordy watched his back. It seemed like the thing she saw the most now was his back. She took off her clothes. At that moment, many awkward bruises were left on her fair skin. That vague moment just now seemed like a joke now. After the bath, she put on the new underwear in the villa as well as the hotel's bathrobe before she opened the door.John was standing outside the
