A Life Debt Repaid のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 111 - チャプター 120

With the evidence of bodily harm, Cordy had proof of deliberate physical assault.That meant she could pursue a legal course of action should she decide to press charges.Cordy finally turned on her phone then and sent the report from her medical examination to the police before getting herself admitted to the hospital.As she reclined in her hospital bed, she stared at the countless missed calls on her phone, but she ignored them anyway. She swiped through news articles and saw that all of the internet was condemning Kyle and Noel, using the foulest of words on them.With the drama having escalated to such an extent, the damage was not just on Kyle and Noel's reputations—both Jessop Corp and Sachs Enterprises would suffer more direct losses as well, including boycotts of their products and their stock prices plummeting.Naturally, Cordy was unmoved. She tapped on Twitter to check out the tweet Kyle had posted yesterday—the number of supportive replies to that tweet before was

Noel was sobbing at Simon's sigh. "How did it go, Daddy? Does she still want to press charges?""Of course she does!" Simon snapped, seething just then. "Weren't you saying that you're going to woo John Levine? It's already ages, and he's still with Cordy!" Noel appeared even more upset at that, and her eyes were welling with tears. "I wanted to do it to help our family, but Cordy is latching on to him so tightly, I can't even get close…""Oh, Simon, you shouldn't blame her," Sue chimed in, ever quick to her daughter's rescue. "You can't rush a relationship, and did you know that Noel almost passed out from crying? We should think about how we can convince Cordy to drop the charges, or it'll be a scandal for the family if the case was made against Plum and she gets sentenced to jail. Everyone will be laughing at us!"Simon naturally took that into consideration and a vein bulged over his temples in his fury. "It's all my fault. Grandma wouldn't have slapped Cordy if not for me."

"It's alright, I'll stay here with you," John replied, as if it was only natural. "Sleep."As Cordy stared at him, he said, "You often came by to visit and take care of me when I was staying in the hospital before.""You were hurt because of me," Cordy pointed out."I always repay a favor a hundredfold. You don't have to be so formal with me, Ms. Sachs," John said with a determined tone.Cordy pursed her lips—she had this nagging feeling that she would hurt the little child in John if she turned him down. As such, she simply turned around, keeping her back to him and closed her eyes to sleep.And with that, John sat by her hospital bed, staring at her delicately small figure.She really was small… So, so small.And yet, she was so tough it hurt. John's Adam's apple bobbed just then.If he stopped her all those years ago, when she was fleeing without a care…Would she have been more trusting?-Cordy did not expect that she would really fall asleep.She came up with a re

Winston was certainly a sly old fox, bringing in dinner and immediately leaving after, using the excuse that Richard was waiting for him at home!He had to leave Randy with the task of disturbing John with Cordy!"Winston sent dinner. I was worried that it would get cold," Randy gingerly explained.When John nodded, Randy quickly put the dinner on the overtable and turned to leave right after.Cordy, however, stopped Randy. "Let's eat together, Randy. There's too much for John and I."Randy certainly was afraid to say yes, and he turned towards his boss. "Don't waste it," Cordy added. John reluctantly nodded then.Randy, who was already hungry, could not help being grateful that Cordy was as kind as she was beautiful. -After dinner, Cordy insisted that John head home, with the excuse of being worried that Richard was alone.He reluctantly left under her insistence, and she breathed a sigh of relief after he was gone.She was certainly uneasy with him around.Lying down

"Hello, Ms. Sachs. Your reputation precedes you, though you're even more beautiful than when you appeared at the press conference." Sam praised her earnestly. "You flatter me." Cordy smiled. "You're quite handsome too."Sam smiled smugly and shot John a provoking look, but John ignored it.Pulling out a chair for Cordy, John said, "I knew them since I was a boy since our families were close. That said, I spent more time abroad and rarely came back. This is the first time I'm celebrating my birthday in North City, so they wanted to join me."In other words, he wanted to celebrate it with her alone, but they insisted on tagging alone."Anyway, just be at ease. Don't mind them," John then added quietly, clearly taking her feelings into consideration. Cordy nodded.It was his birthday, and naturally what he said went.However, she wondered if she would have a chance to say the things she was prepared to say tonight.That was when the door suddenly opened, and a familiar female v
