Chapter 610
A Life Debt Repaid
Lucas had a smug look on his face. âAha! So youâre admitting to it?â
Stumped, Cordy turned pale; however, she quickly decided to change the subject.
Since she couldnât beat him, she simply gave up, not wanting to suffer him any further.
âWhere were you going? Why were you in such a rush?â she demanded.
Lucas, however, was suddenly dumbstruck.
Cordy frowned-wasnât he supposed to be immaculate in verbal fencing? How did such a simple question stump him?
He eventually sighed and muttered, âIâ¦I needed to pee.â
âArenât you heading in the wrong direction?â
âI was still dazed from sleep, okay?â he snapped, his voice a little loud just.
âWhy are you getting so upset?â Cordy was angry too-it seemed they just had to argue with every other exchange.
n | n Lucas was stumped again while Cordy pressed him, âAre you kidneys really that good? Go relieve yourself already!â
Lucas flushed; as he left, he snapped in displeasure, âMy kidneys are perfectly fine!â
With that, he turned around and ran into the bathroom in the ward, slamming the door loudly shut.
Cordy in turn took deep breaths, and told herself not to get petty with him.
In theory, she was older than him by six years; she had no reason to get upset with a child.
With that, she began to pack-Patrick had been hurrying her multiple times, and she was afraid he would rush to the hospital if she didnât make it back to the hotel soon.
When Lucas stepped out of the bathroom and saw her packing her things, he asked, âAre you getting discharged already?â
âYeah. The doctor just told me that Iâm fine,â she replied.
Lucas said nothing else. He took his clothes to get changed in the bathroom, before packing up everything he bought as well.
However, he was also throwing most of it into the trash can.
He really was a wastrel.
Naturally, Cordy didnât care since she had no reason to.
She went to get changed as well. Once they were both done, they were once again wearing matching couple outfits.
Cordy watched as Lucas scowled; this time, she wasnât about to stand for it. âWhy did you buy the same coat if you donât want to dress up like me?â
âHow the f*ck would I know that Iâd keep running into you?â Lucas snapped in annoyance.
Cordy pursed her lips, since she thought the same.
They were supposed to encounter each other once by chance, and it shouldâve ended there.
Somehow, they ended up stuck with each other.
Still, Cordy said bluntly, âIâm leaving the capital once I leave the hotel.â
In other words, they wouldnât see each other ever again.
âSee you never,â Lucas replied eagerly.
Cordy ignored him.
They headed out of the hospital after they had packed up their belongings, where a car waited outside the entrance.
Lucas went right inside, while Cordy planned to get a cab. Lucas snapped impatiently at her, âWell?
Arenât you coming?â Cordy was surprised, and he added, âItâs the hotelâs car. I asked them to send one.â
He really was quite smart.
