A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1005

John said solemnly, "That has nothing to do with my motivation to protect Cordy."

Sean pursed his lips, unable to say anything against that.

John then added, "Take your time to consider…"

"There's no need," Sean said. "We're partners now."

He didn’t need further reason either, since John was on the money.

If John really wanted to work with the Lynds to destroy the Cranstons, the Cranstons wouldn’t remain unscathed.

And Sean would never doubt John's strength.

"Alright. I'll contact you when there's any new developments," John said.

"You mean, I shouldn't come to you?" Sean asked.

"Ideally, no."

"Alright."

"Also, I have a request," John added.

"Tell me."

"Arrange for one of yours so that he can stay close to me," John said. "The Lynds are keeping a close eye on me, and Nana is as smart as she is sharp—she’d notice something if I'm unaware. As such, I need protection and someone who can pass information for me under the Lynds' noses."

"Arranging for an insider in the Lynd family? That's going to be difficult."

"I'll make a window for you."

As Sean blinked, John continued, "Just wait for your chance and make a move."

"Okay." Sean agreed to it immediately, as if there was this part in his heart where he simply couldn’t reject any of John's requests.

"I'm going now."

And with that, John left. Sean snuffed out the remaining half of his cigarette.

He sighed—it seemed they were all in for a bloodbath.

As Zoe packed up early in the morning, Yelena asked grumpily, "Mommy, are you leaving with Daddy again?"
