A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 983

So that's what everyone was gasping about?

And Cordy was wondering if it had been something serious.

But did they have to flaunt their affection like this, when they were just a few paces away from the stage?

Were they that eager they couldn’t wait for when this ceremony was over?

Cordy turned her eyes away coldly, while John helped Nana up the stage.

The emcee stepped aside, letting the priest quickly go through the grand motions of blessing the new couple.

There was certainly no delay—the wedding ceremony was being rushed because of Nana's poor health, and they were soon at the part of the exchanging of the vows.

It was quite the simple ceremony.

As Nana and John stood at the center of the stage, the priest asked John, "Lucas Lynch, wilt thou have this woman to thy wedded wife; love her, comfort her, honor and keep her, in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all other, keep thee only unto her, so long as ye both shall live?"

"I will," John replied.

Then, the priest turned towards Nana. "Nana Lynd, wilt thou have this man to thy wedded husband; love him, comfort him, honor and keep him, in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all other, keep thee only unto him, so long as ye both shall live?"

"I will," Nana replied.

And with that, the priest declared them a formally married couple. The emcee's voice boomed with excitement, "Let's give a warm round of applause to the newlyweds as they retire to their bridal suite!"

It was certainly a simple ceremony for such a grand wedding reception.

However, just as John was about to help Nana leave the stage, she gestured at the emcee, who quickly handed her the mic.

She said, "My family and Lucas were hoping that our wedding ceremony would be simpler given my health issues, but I’d rather not have any regrets on the most important day of my life. That is why I shall grant my own wish to say the many thoughts I have, at this most precious moment of mine."
