The clear clinking sound was drowned by the sound of the waves crashing along the coast.Cordy sipped from the glass.She said, "John, does this not seem familiar to you?""Not at all.""All right." Cordy chuckled.Her smile was clearly laced with sorrow.John turned his face away to look into the distance where the boundless ocean lay ahead beyond the horizon…The sky was turning darker and darker by the minute.The candlelight mingled with the soft glow of the lamps, intensifying the romantic atmosphere around them.A touching melody suddenly came from afar.It was the lilting notes of a violin drifting from a quiet corner.Cordy stood up from her seat, and John looked at her.He saw her taking one difficult step at a time toward him, reaching her hands out by way of invitation. "Shall we dance?"John looked at her from top to toe. "Are you sure you can still dance?""Of course I can."John chuckled helplessly, although he stood up anyway.He walked toward Cordy, and

She was so near, yet he did not dare to reach out to her.He thought that Cordy was leaving, that she would leave upon being rejected by him.She had always been a proud woman, and he would rather she stay that way.She would leave without hesitation at his rejection.He did not want to see her groveling and doing herself injustice, being so aggrieved for his sake…Cordy picked up her bag on the table and fished out a folded piece of paper.She struggled to walk back to John.She flattened out the piece of paper and handed it to him. "This is the result of the DNA test between you and Richard."Yes.She did not want to show him that or tie John to herself this way, but she succumbed to it eventually.Rather than seeing him leave, she would rather lose her dignity.She never thought that she would go to such an extent for a man she loved.After experiencing what she did with Kyle, she thought that she would never fall in love again…But John was worth it.Yet, John refused

But eventually, John did not stop her.They simply brushed past each other just like that. Cordy returned to the hotel villa, while John left the beach.-"Have you given up yet?"Cordy buried her face between her knees on the soft couch in the hotel villa.Sean's voice was a mix of concern and helplessness.Cordy did not lift her head up and simply nodded."Then let's go back." Sean did not ask her any questions, and he neither mock her nor showed her any concern.He just took it that this episode was over, and he did not want to embarrass her."Give me a moment." Cordy's voice was nasal from all the crying."Sure."Sean sat next to her as he waited.He would be lying if he said that his heart did not ache for Cordy, seeing her like this. He would also be lying if he said that he did not feel like punching John.But he was a rational man.He clearly knew what was best for Cordy, and whatever he said at this point would only make her feel worse.The only thing he could

Patrick looked at Cordy in disbelief.He admitted that he had been pursuing her even in his dreams, but he never expected Cordy to say yes to him one day.Cordy was like the bright moon in the night sky, beautiful but unattainable. His desire for her, the moon that he could never reach, could only exist in his own world.But right now, his moon had suddenly agreed to try things out with him.Was he hearing things? He instinctively looked toward Sean.Sean was the only other witness tonight, aside from him and Cordy.There was a tinge of resignation in Sean's eyes until he felt Patrick looking at him dazedly, as if he were hallucinating. He was hallucinating, right?!After all, Sean was hoping against all hope that Patrick would end up with Cordy.Now that Cordy had finally agreed, he was a very happy man.Of course, Patrick clearly knew that Sean approved of him not because he was excellent, but because John was terrible.There would not be disappointment without compar

He must have guessed that she was hurt by John and needed someone to lean on.Perhaps that need was not love.She was just tired.He clearly knew all that, yet not only did he not mind, but he even felt thankful for her acceptance.What kind of a man was he?Cordy lurched into Patrick's embrace, no longer able to hold her emotions back, and Patrick stood stunned.His heart pounded uncontrollably, as if it no longer belonged to his body.He felt Cordy sobbing hard in his arms.He did not know if she was crying for him or for John. The only thing he cared about was that she was in his arms, in a place where he could finally feel her near."Patrick, I admit that I don't love you enough right now, but I swear I'll do my best to love you," Cordy said clearly as she made her promise to Patrick."That's enough for me." Patrick hugged Cordy back.The sight of the two of them locked in a tight embrace landed in Richard's line of vision, and Sean was standing right next to him.The t

John's phone rang.It sounded ear-piercing in the quiet corridor.Many members of the Lynd family were there in the corridor, aside from him, and that included Jean.Nana's attempt at committing suicide again deepened her animosity toward John.The moment she arrived at the hospital, she pointed her finger at John and threatened to kill him if anything untoward happened to Nana.The sound coming from his phone made Jean glare at him, but he did not really care about it.He knew that as long as Nana was around, the Lynds would not do anything to him.The Lynds knew too well how important he was to Nana, and they would not dare lay a finger on him.Conversely, should Nana die, he would definitely not be able to escape unscathed in the hands of the Lynd family.John fished out his phone, unperturbed, as he tapped on the notification.His thumb suddenly went stiff.For that split second, the photo in his phone became blurry.At the next moment, a commotion along the corridor sn

Right before she shut her eyes, she looked weakly at John.A smile of victory crept up her lips.Everyone accompanied Nana back to her ward.After a while, when Nana had fallen into deep sleep, the Lynds prepared to make a move."Come with me, Lucas," Jean said, her face dark with displeasure.The kind and tender look she gave Nana earlier had completely vanished. The entire atmosphere dipped, making one tremble in suspense.John followed Jean out of the ward and they stood along the corridor.The other members of the Lynd family stood nearby and looked on at both of them.Jean cut to the chase. "Lucas, my patience has reached its limit. If it weren't for Nana, do you think you'd have survived in the capital until now?""You've misunderstood me this time," Lucas said, firmly and unyieldingly."Misunderstood you? What exactly is your relationship with Cordy Sachs?!" Jean went straight to the point.She did not want to beat around the bush any longer."I admit that I had feel

Jean remained silent.Someone who could attain the position and power she had was certainly not simple.She would neither casually arrive at a conclusion about anything nor easily admit that she was wrong. Even if she was persuaded by another, she would not admit to it.She would only brush past the issue as if it were nothing.She said calmly, "I shouldn't be interfering in you young people's affairs, but you know very well that Nana's condition is not like any other ordinary person's, and we can't take it lightly. Whatever it is, I don't want something like this to happen again. It's getting late and you've been running around the entire night. Take the time while Nana is sleeping to get some rest.""Okay," John said.Jean left, and John heaved an inward sigh of relief as she saw Jean's retreating figure.He had to gain Jean's absolute trust at this point. It would otherwise be difficult for him to gain a footing in the Lynd household and do anything further.It was just that
