But even as Cordy kept shoving John off, she said, "Don't worry, that doesn't apply to me."
John kept holding on tightly to her, so she made herself very clear. "You just might be able to do it, though."
John paused then, as something seemed to hit him right then.
He eased his hold on Cordy and stared at her for a while.
"It's exactly what you think," she told him and slithered out of his arms, swiftly walking up to Patrick.
The man was writhing in utter agony, though she almost saw him bleeding out of every orifice.
Cordy thought she was imagining it since it had not been that long, but as she put her hand on Patrick's nostrils, she felt the vicious sensation of blood.
And from up close, she saw his eyes staring blankly into thin air while he bled out from his ears too…
How heavily did the Stuarts drug him? Were they trying to kill him?!
However, it made sense that the Stuarts had a backup measure in case they failed to kill them in the car crash. If they could at least made sure that she and Patrick had sexual relations, they would deny John anything to fall back on.
They were certainly as savage as they were cunning!
"What's wrong, Mr. Stuart?" The chauffeur was horrified by Patrick's condition too.
He thought they had just managed to cheat death, only for Patrick to end up worse than that!
Did the crash rupture internal organs?
While the chauffeur was at a loss, John confirmed Partrick's condition and said flatly, "He's going to die here if he isn't satiated."
"Where are his people? What's taking so long?" Cordy asked just then.
However, help might not even know where they were at the moment, since Patrick's phone must have been crushed in the car crash.
Turning toward John then, she asked, "Well, what should we do now?"
There was no way they could let Patrick die here after they went through so much to save him!
John suddenly frowned. "What's that look for?"
