A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 883

Cordy spoke at length, her tears gushing as she did.

Dicky's heart ached for his mother as he watched, but his father just wasn't responding.

He won't be able to take yet another departure from his daddy, let alone his mommy.

Nonetheless, Dicky quietly hid his tears—his mommy was already badly hurting, and he didn’t want her to feel more hurt because of him.

"Mommy," he called out to her.

"Yes?" Cordy replied, subtly wiping away her tears.

"The doctor said visiting hours are over," he reminded her.

Cordy nodded, and stared at John's pale face.

He remained unresponsive, and so she left unhappily.

She never noticed his fingers twitching as she did.

When Dicky wheeled Cordy out of the ICU, they found Sean waiting for them outside.

His injury was relatively minor compared to Cordy's, and he wasn’t wheelchair bound. However, the doctor still advised him not to move around too much, given the long list of injuries he sustained.

"What are you doing here?" Cordy asked him.

"It just occurred to me that you might be here. You weren't around in your ward."

"Is something the matter?"
