A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 954

But eventually, John did not stop her.

They simply brushed past each other just like that.

Cordy returned to the hotel villa, while John left the beach.

-

"Have you given up yet?"

Cordy buried her face between her knees on the soft couch in the hotel villa.

Sean's voice was a mix of concern and helplessness.

Cordy did not lift her head up and simply nodded.

"Then let's go back." Sean did not ask her any questions, and he neither mock her nor showed her any concern.

He just took it that this episode was over, and he did not want to embarrass her.

"Give me a moment." Cordy's voice was nasal from all the crying.

"Sure."

Sean sat next to her as he waited.

He would be lying if he said that his heart did not ache for Cordy, seeing her like this. He would also be lying if he said that he did not feel like punching John.

But he was a rational man.

He clearly knew what was best for Cordy, and whatever he said at this point would only make Cordy feel worse.

The only thing he could do was to keep her company and make sure she did not self-harm, even though he was sure that Cordy would not do that.

But as her kin, he could not just leave her alone.

What was more, Cordy has thought of him at her saddest moment.

That was enough to motivate him to stop Cordy from doing anything foolish.

After a long while, Cordy wiped her tears dry and looked up at Sean.

Her eyes and nose were both red.

It was rare for Cordy to express her sorrow so overtly.

"Let's go," Cordy said.

She spoke those two words as if she had really let things go.

Sean did not know if Cordy really let things go or if she was simply hiding her vulnerabilities. Whatever it was, it was for the best that she was willing to end the relationship.

In his opinion, Patrick was the better man for Cordy.

Sean stood up, carried Cordy in his arms, and put her gently in her wheelchair.
