A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 556

Was she destined to just look at the two of them being there for each other through life and death?!

"Save your breath, Cordy. I know what you're thinking. You just want to provoke me into letting John go and choosing to die with you. I'm telling you, that's impossible! No matter what, whether your death is the greatest punishment for John or if your death is the best outcome for me, I'll never release John. Yes, I'll never let him go for the rest of my life! I must have him even if I die!"

Jessica finally blurted out her goal.

Her premise in exacting revenge was to get what she wanted.

Since she was unable to get John while she was alive, she would be with him in her death.

It was pointless no matter how much Cordy tried to convince her.

Jessica's only choice had always been John, even if it meant that it spared Cordy from dying with her.

That was the only way she could be with John without anybody intervening.

Cordy's eyes were red with unshed tears—she knew very well that whatever she did right now would be in vain.

It was useless no matter how much she tried to provoke Jessica.

She looked at John and the peace in his eyes.

He was worried that Jessica would be provoked by Cordy, but he could finally be at ease now.

Since Jessica still wanted to be with him, everyone else would be safe.

"Cordy," he comforted her, "Don't cry. This is the best outcome for all."

"No…"

No, it was not.
