All Chapters of A Life Debt Repaid: Chapter 1181 - Chapter 1190

John could barely exert much strength with his right hand, and he was so busy he almost forgot that he was half a patient.His doctor did insist that he rest frequently and attend rehabilitation sessions regularly.-The next day, Cordy was working in her office at Starstream Group when Robin entered. "We just received a tip, Ms. Sachs…""What is it?""The CEO of SYX Corp is going to have dinner with Gareth Bryant tonight. He's the board chairman of Future Tech.""So?' Cordy asked, frowning—she was unusually irritated whenever John was mentioned."Well, Future Tech had been trying to gain a foothold here in North City with a physical outlet. They had one in a rather remote location, but performance has not been ideal for them. Recently, rumor has it that Gareth was trying to get a lease in KPW Shopping Center, but that went south too… Therefore, it's reasonable to speculate that he is having dinner with SYX's CEO to discuss a lease…"Cordy scowled, naturally understanding what

Her heart pounding, she looked at the man before her and saw that he was not looking composed either.In fact, his face was pale, as if he was more scared than she was.Their eyes met for a couple seconds, but just as Cordy was about to struggle out of John's arms, he scooped her up in his arms."What do you think you're doing?!""Carrying you back to your room.""I don't need that. I can walk fine on my own.""Keep moving, and we'd both fall."Cordy gritted her teeth, but she had no choice but to take it since she could not move, even though she suffered considerably from it.Still, John quickly strode up the stairs with her in his arms and took her to her room.He put her in bed and left immediately after, as if she would sully his modesty if he lingered even for a second.Cordy pursed her lips.John was already gone, but she did not get to vent her grief at all!-"You're back already, Daddy?" Richard exclaimed in surprise as he watched John come downstairs."What sill

John's blind date laughed. "Well, I've never failed thus far.""By the way, are you really not going to settle down?" her friend asked, her tone turning slightly serious. "It's just been one blind date after another—are you really just going to play around like that?""Settle down? I'm only twenty-four! That'd be a waste of my youth. And you know that I won't ever get my parents to shut up unless I attend these blind dates. And what's the harm when I might find some top-quality stud while I do?""Older men are not that playful, y'know," her friend warned. "He might want you to take responsibility.""Don't worry—I'm a veteran," John's blind dates said nonchalantly. "That said, I don't mind hanging around to play a bit more with this one. You have no idea, but he's the best-looking one I've had yet. He'd even give movie stars a run for their money.""Really?""I'll send a photo over later.""In bed, I hope." Her friend laughed."I'll do my best." John's blind date did not reject

Cordy was actually confident.Having built a partnership with Gareth Bryant, he naturally had to defer to her. As such, he was basically going through the motions when he showed up here.Moreover, she had looked into the competition as well, but the only side that might compete was Gareth, and no one else had any chance of winning.That was why her confidence showed during her presentation.Two hours later, after everyone presented their proposals, the results were announced on the spot.To no surprise, Cordy retained the best spot in KPW Shopping Center, extending the contract for ten years this time.That basically meant she did not have to worry about her flagship outlet in the immediate future.Still, John politely offered a handshake after agreeing to the partnership. "Congratulations, Ms. Sachs. Here's to a fruitful partnership."Cordy merely stared at his hand hesitantly and did not take it.John did not seem to feel embarrassed by that and simply lowered his hand.Nod

"Of course," Zoe replied.Wendy promptly opened her camera app and took a selfie with Zoe before suddenly calling out to Cordy too. "How about we take another one together?"Cordy was left staring at Wendy, wondering how carefree that woman could be."Come on," Wendy kept urging nonetheless.Cordy joined them in the end, since she did not want things to get awkward.However, after taking the selfie, Wendy was muttering, "Oh, it's not surprising that Dicky is that handsome—he really got some good genes from his parents. I wonder if Johnny and my kids would look that good.""Wait, you guys are getting married?" Zoe was a little agitated at the prospect."Not that soon—we just met a while ago," Wendy smiled, chagrined, though she soon added meekly, "But if Johnny proposes, I think I'll say yes…"As she spoke, she glanced at John, who did not answer directly and said instead, "Time to eat. Go wash your hands."Wendy stuck her tongue out at him. "You're coming with me."John did n
