A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 956
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

"Yeah, I slept too late last night," Cordy said as she forced herself to sit up on the bed."Do you need to go back to sleep?" Zoe herself loved her sleep and hated it when people woke her up. "No," Cordy said. "I'm awake now.""Oh," Zoe sounded like she had more to say, yet she fell silent."What's up?" Cordy asked."Nothing much," Zoe replied. She did not know how to broach the subject."Just speak your mind." Cordy could see through Zoe in a minute.Zoe was not one capable of hiding secrets anyway.Unable to hold it in any longer, she then said, "It seems that Lucas is getting married to that heiress of the Lynd family?""Yeah," Cordy replied.She made herself sound indifferent to it."Don't you think Lucas looks a lot like John? Have you ever suspected…" Zoe halted mid-sentence.Cordy pursed her lips.She was wondering whether to tell Zoe the truth.After a moment's hesitation, she said, "I saw John disappear right in front of my eyes."Since John was not willing to

Zoe had always listened to Cordy's advice.She felt that Cordy's words always made sense.Cordy had suggested more than once for her to be with Jay. She internally rejected the idea and did not hold much hope for Jay.But this time, for some reason unknown to her, she felt a change of heart inside.Cordy was a good judge of character. If she said that Jay was a good man, he would definitely not be a crook.But the thought of how much Jay used to resist her advances…She felt so conflicted inside.Zoe sighed. "I'll give it a try."When she was unsure as to what her decision should be, she decided to heed Cordy's advice."Jay won't let you regret your decision," Cordy said with a smile."I hope so." Zoe did not dare to hold out hope."Since you're in the midst of filming, don't get distracted and go back to work.""All right, chat next time." Zoe made a move to hang up.After all, it was not too good for her to stay in the washroom for too long. "Oh yes." Cordy suddenly re

Jay came here to cook?He did not know how to cook and needed Bob and Cora's help for it?Jay's behavior with the Levines had never changed indeed.Just when Zoe was about to say something sarcastic, Bob walked over and said, "I'm teaching your husband how to cook.""Huh?" Zoe was shocked."What's with that look on your face? You don't believe that I know how to cook?" Bob said on purpose."No," Zoe blurted. "I've tasted your food before."The moment she said that, the atmosphere between them tensed up.Bob had learned how to cook for her when they were dating each other.Bob was naturally talented and everything he cooked tasted delicious, unlike her, who managed to screw up every dish she cooked."Didn't you whip up a meal for us the last time Zoe and I went to your house?" Jay cut in naturally.His acting skills…What a pity that Jay was not an actor."Yeah," Cora immediately chimed in.Cameras were surrounding them and it was easy for people to realize something was w

If she were honest, she would admit that she regretted it the moment she touched Jay's lips.That touch felt like lightning that jolted her awake.How could she take the initiative to kiss Jay?!If Jay instinctively pushed her away, would the act they worked so hard to put up over the past few days not all be in vain?!Even if Jay was professional enough to not push her away, she did it in front of so many photographers and even Bob…What she did was simply courting death.A large-scale, bloody social death.At that moment, Zoe had a strong urge to take her leave. Just as she was about to do so, a warm hand held the back of her head to stop her from leaving, as if knowing what she would do next.The next moment, he deepened the kiss."Mm!" Zoe's eyes widened.She stared at Jay's huge face up close.Did he stop aging at some point?How could a man over thirty years of age have such smooth and poreless skin? Of course, Zoe's attention wasn't exactly on Jay's looks.After

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
