A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1289

Droves of journalists were waiting inside and outside the wedding hall, and John and Cordy's arrival sent the place into a frenzy.

As there was a press conference arranged beforehand, they stood among the journalists and answered the questions posed to them.

"The previous wedding in North City had already stirred waves in North City, Mr. Levine. Why another wedding? Is it to make up to Ms. Sachs?"

"Ms. Sachs, you and Mr. Levine had been hovering around each other for years. Why only get married now? Was there perhaps misunderstandings in between?"

"Ms. Sachs, why did you hide your identity as a member of the Cranston Family? Were there perhaps some factors you're not at ease to discuss?"

"Mr. Levine…"

As the journalists peppered them with questions, John calmly said, "Please, one at a time—or we don't know whose question to answer, and we won't be able to hear anyone clearly. We've arranged for this press conference to be conducted with ample time so everyone's question would be answered."

The journalists turned quietly immediately at John's words—he always had the ability to take control over any scene.

Soon, one of the journalists asked, "Mr. Levine, it's obvious that you and Ms. Sachs have loved each other for years. What could have happened that you had to wait so long to tie the knot?"

"There has certainly been one too many heart-stopping escapades. While I'm happy to tell everyone everything, the gist of it is that we kept missing out on each other despite our love for one another."

He turned to look at Cordy then, and she looked at him in turn—there was no hiding the love in their eyes.

"I must thank the heavens that we can always start anew after all the missed opportunities. From now on, I'll never let go of Cordy's hand, come what may."

He was supposed to be answering the journalists' questions, but it feels more like a declaration of his love.

Another journalist then asked, "Ms. Sachs, may I ask about your connection to the Cranston family? Why were you hiding your status before?"
