Zoe quickly changed the subject. [Still up this late?]Cordy replied: [Why'd you text me if you knew it's late?]Zoe was suddenly stumped, though Cordy soon sent another reply to answer the question. [I'm in bed. Just haven't fallen asleep.]Zoe exposed Cordy right then. [Because Lucas is marrying Nana Lynd tomorrow.] [It has nothing to do with them. I'm chronically insomniac.][Really?][Yeah.]Zoe didn’t press the issue. [Fair enough. So what's the secret?]Cordy didn’t reply, however, and Zoe was left restless—she was always rash, while Cordy was always calm.Someday, that woman would kill her. Still, Zoe’s phone started ringing with a call just as she started to draft another text.Zoe quickly answered. "Cordy?"On the other end, Cordy frowned. "What happened to your voice?"Huh. She forgot that she had lost her voice."Do you have a cold?" Cordy pressed."No.""Then how did your voice get so hoarse?""Uh…"Why Zoe was unsure how to explain, Cordy asked, "Wait,

As Zoe hung up, she turned and almost jumped when she saw Jay in his wheelchair. He was staying still just beside the doorway.When did he get there?!She then remembered that he left to get them food, and wondered if her pregnancy had somehow left her muddle-headed.Nonetheless, Jay wheeled himself inside with a bowl of strawberry soup. If Zoe were to be honest, she really wanted something sweet and hydrating just like that soup. She wolfed it down as soon as Jay passed it to her.As she drank, she asked, "Have you eaten?""No."Zoe looked up at Jay, who shrugged. "I'll eat once you've eaten.""You can share this with me.""I don't think that'd be enough for you.""Can't you bring more?" Zoe asked. "Instead of just one bowl.""I can.""Then bring another," Zoe said, a little speechless.Did his intelligence go dull as well? But he was never pregnant! "Yeah," Jay replied. Just as he was going to wheel himself out of the room, he suddenly asked, "Is Cordy in a relationsh

Cordy was still unable to fall asleep after she hung up.She didn’t mind admitting to herself that she was losing sleep because it was John and Nana's wedding's tomorrow.However, having made up her mind, she was supposed to feel relieved towards it all…and yet, there was still a heavy load that she couldn’t get off her chest.Maybe it would be gone once John actually got married?She flipped in bed and kept trying to sleep when her phone jingled with another Whatsapp text message.Cordy was convinced it was Zoe, since that girl always imposed no matter the time.However, she picked up her phone to see that it was a text from Patrick.[Are you asleep? I'm at the capital now.]Cordy's heart skipped a beat—he had never mentioned that before.In fact, after the night they confirmed their relationship, they planned to go on another trip around the capital the next day to let their feelings grow. However, he ended up returning to Rocktown early the next morning for work, and she ha

Patrick seemed really lethargic at first, but became energetic again the moment Cordy kissed him on the cheek. He turned and gaped at her.He was certainly stunned and caught with disbelief that she would actually kiss him."Go to bed soon," Cordy told him, feeling a little creeped out from his stare.Maybe she shouldn’t have done that—restraint wasn’t his strong suit.She could tell that he was so delighted he could dance, but couldn’t he at least hide it a little?!"Cordy." Patrick caught her just as she turned to leave, and her heart skipped a beat again.She really shouldn’t have teased him—give him an inch, and he'd want a mile.To no surprise, he pulled her into his arms; her face was planted into his chest, almost suffocating her.Cordy struggled, trying to free herself as she snapped grumpily, "Are you trying to smother me, Patrick Stuart?""I'm just so happy!" Patrick couldn’t stop grinning."That's no excuse for murder."He simply cupped her puffy cheeks and said

Patrick snapped, "What, do you kiss only after you're married? What, are you from ancient times, boomer?!""I don't know," Sean replied flatly. "All I know is that you don't get to do it here in my house as long as you're not married."Patrick almost had a stroke right then. "Look, man—"Sean, however, simply ignored Patrick and firmly pulled his hand off Cordy, who was watching everything in silence. She could see that Patrick could jump from sheer frustration. Even so, Sean added threateningly, "Watch yourself if you don't want to get kicked out of my house."Patrick gritted his teeth, clearly withholding the hissy fit he was just about to let loose.Cordy couldn’t help smiling as she watched that reaction; she always had the feeling that Patrick was completely powerless when he was around Sean—as if Sean had Patrick grabbed by the balls."Go to bed," Sean repeated sternly at Cordy, scowling.Cordy glanced at Patrick, worried that he would blow up right then and there; howev

The sedan stopped in the underground car park of a shopping complex, and Cordy was rendered speechless. She was being dragged out to shop while in her pajamas and barely any makeup… Patrick was really ridiculous! "Let's go," Patrick beckoned, even opening the door for her in true gentleman fashion.Cordy refused—it was just so embarrassing!"Come on," Patrick urged."Do you think I'm going to humiliate myself like this?" she snapped."Trust me."Cordy gritted her teeth, but ultimately alighted. She could afford to brace herself and trust him just this once.Afterward, they both entered the elevator.Thankfully, it was unoccupied—or she wouldn’t know where to hide as they rode it up to the top floor.Patrick was still strutting as he led Cordy out of the elevator, which left her in further confusion as to what his plans were. "Look, Patrick, it's my ex's wedding—not yours! Shouldn't I be the one feeling upset about it?""That's why I'm trying to cheer you up."Cordy roll

Patrick grinned. "So? Do you think we're a perfect fit for one another?"Before Cordy could answer, the store assistant nearby promptly praised them sycophantically, "Of course, Mr. Stuart! You and Miss Sachs are a match made in heaven—no one deserves each other more than you two!"Patrick was obviously delighted from the obvious fawning, and there was no hiding the dazzling smile on his face.Later, Cordy was escorted by the store's staff to the makeup station, while Patrick took a seat on a nearby couch and waited. While others would be killing time by fiddling with their phones or reading something, Patrick was resting his chin on one hand as he stared straight at Cordy.…As if worried she would disappear in the blink of an eye.The staff who were helping Cordy with her makeup were getting embarrassed by his stare, and couldn’t help teasing, "Are you that afraid we'd abduct Miss Sachs, sir?"Cordy blushed, and snapped a little grumpily, "Could you keep your eyes to yourself,

Cordy was neither lying nor offering comfort to Patrick because she was being soft.She had already resolved herself when she chose to be with him—that she would never let him down.Emotional, Patrick's eyes turned watery. "You better keep your promise, Cordy.""Yeah." She nodded.He gave her hand a squeeze and they locked fingers, offering each other a genuine promise.-They arrived at the grand hotel where the wedding was held. Nana was the precious daughter of the prestigious Lynd family, and they certainly spared no expense for the occasion.Even friends and relatives living in distant lands came to attend, and there were security guards as well as bodyguards on watch everywhere.Cordy presented her invitation at the entrance, and headed inside with Patrick after it was verified.There were already plenty of people present, and the bustling crowd of guests were all socializing.Be that as it may, Cordy and Patrick drew considerable attention when she showed up linking ar
