A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 579

Patrick got a little angry, and bellowed, "Why not? Don't forget, you're married with a child! You're the one who shouldn't be lusting after her!"

He certainly had enough of Sean!

However, Sean simply shot him a look as if he was an idiot, which incensed him further.

Not wanting to keep wasting time with him, Sean told Patrick, "You're in my turf right now. Watch yourself if you want to leave in one piece."

"Are you threatening me?"

Yes," Sean replied, not hiding his intention at all.

"F*ck!" Patrick could not help swearing.

However, there was nothing he could do in the capital, not when it was the Cranstons' turf.

As such, he left the exhibition with Sean, huffing as he did.

Meanwhile, Cordy had already reached backstage and was waiting for Maron in the lounge.

She was sitting down on the couch, and picked up a newspaper to read when someone suddenly entered.

Her heart skipped a beat when she saw that it was Lucas Lynch.

With him being so close, the sense of familiarity overwhelmed her again.

But if he truly was John, he wouldn’t be looking at her like a stranger.

In fact, his gaze didn’t linger on her for more than three seconds before he turned to leave.

"Are you looking for Maron?" Cordy asked, taking the initiative.

Her voice quivered slightly from nerves.

Lucas heard her, and turned to look at her. "Do you know where he is?"

Even his voice was different from John's—his was crisper, while John's was deeper.

Cordy bit her lip, unsure how to argue.

In truth, she was actually upset that Lucas was so full of himself.

"Whatever. I'm not waiting here," Lucas said, rising to feet and putting down the newspaper.

As Cordy frowned, he added, "I really don't like staying with someone who wants a shot at me in the same room."

With those words, he left. Cordy was actually a little angry as she watched him leave.

She wants a shot at him, he said?!

She wouldn’t have looked at him twice if he didn’t bear such a strong resemblance with John!

Did he think being good-looking made him all that impressive?

And in the end, John was far more handsome than he could ever hope to be!

The more Cordy thought about it, the more furious she became.
