A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1113

"Lucas," Nana called out feebly in delight.

In contrast, John was indifferent as his wheelchair stopped beside her bed.

Nana tried to get up, but John said, "I'll just say a few things. Then I'll be gone."

In other words, she did not have to do anything—because he would not care.

Nana bit her lip to hold back her tears just then.

"I just came to tell you that I'm alive," John said bluntly. "But our so-called marriage is also over. And call me John Levine—Lucas Lynch is gone from this world."

Nana's tears quietly streamed down her cheeks, but she asked, "Can you really still get together with Cordy now?"

She did not ask about herself since she was in no place to talk terms with John now.

Moreover, the fact that none of the Lynds were visiting her indicated that they had trouble fending for themselves.

She could not compel John with her family's influence, and she could not coerce him with suicide.

And since John saved her almost at the cost of his own life, he had already repaid his life debt to her.

Nothing she could do would work now…

"No."

Even so, John did not lie to her—nor did he have to.

As Nana stared at him, he calmly said, "She has a better partner now."

"Patrick Stuart?"

"That's her business. I merely give her my blessing."

In other words, whatever Cordy might choose, he would stay away and refrain from imposing on her life.

"Can't we start over?" Nana asked humbly then. "Cordy has her own life now. Can't we just—"

"No," John said bluntly. "She has my sincere blessings, but this is my life we're talking about, and I won't settle for less."
