A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1101

Both Cordy and Sean stayed in Patrick's ward to keep him company.

They both waited in silence for him to wake up.

Then, after a long while, Patrick's eyelids seemed to twitch.

Sean quickly noticed and straightened himself as he stared fixedly at the other man.

Cordy sensed his reaction in turn and noticed that Patrick was showing signs of waking up as well.

She quickly got up, leaned toward him, and whispered into his ear, "Are you awake, Patrick?"

Patrick simply felt light-headed and opened his eyes with great difficulty to find his vision blurred.

It took a while for him to focus and find Cordy.

He tried to move but found himself very limp.

Moreover, he barely moved when he winced in pain. "Oof."

"Don't move!" Sean suddenly snapped, his voice stern.

Patrick turned toward him.

Cordy did the same and could not help telling him, "He just woke up, Sean, and he's hurt. Don't shout at him."

Sean pursed his lips, but stayed silent.

Patrick seemed to remember what happened just then as well and rasped, "I'm not dead?"

"Don't talk like that," Cordy said mildly. "You'll live another century."
