Chapter 833
A Life Debt Repaid
Patrick ultimately gave in and followed Cordy to Cranston Hall.
Sean just returned, and was surprised to find Cordy returning as well.
Naturally, he was frowning when he saw Patrick, who was scowling in return.
Patrick was now aware of the relationship between Sean and Cordy, but he absolutely would not bother suffering Sean if he did not want to woo Cordy.
âWhatâs he doing here?â Sean asked grumpily nonetheless.
Cordy told him about Patrickâs situation and shrugged. âWe can let him stay a few days.â
Sean shot Patrick a look and said before turning away, âWhy donât you get lost, too?â
Patrick rolled his eyes.
They really were blood related-even their intonation was identical.
Still, he restrained himself and followed Sean to his room. At least the man had manners and was polite enough a host to show Sean around.
Along the way, Patrick asked, âWhere are Cordy and Dicky staying?â
âYou donât have to know.â
âI was just asking.â
âThe answer is still no.â
âLook, man, donât think youâre all that impressive just because youâre Cordyâs cousin. Donât you understand that youâre impeding her happiness?â Patrick argued defiantly.
âHah!â Sean snorted in disdain. âI really donât see how sheâd find happiness with you.â
Patrick snapped at him viciously right then, âDo you even know me or what Iâm like? Are you blind to my family background or personal achievements? Why wouldnât Cordy be happy with me?!â
âDid you forget which way you swing before?!â Sean said bluntly, refusing to waste his breath.
Patrick did a double take.
âSh*t!â
Sean knew about his past?! Did Sean do a background check on him?!
No one knew that aside from a couple of his confidants, and Cordy would not betray him either.
He grew to have a hundred percent faith in her after the years spent with herâ¦
Seeing that Patrick was speechless then, Sean snorted and added, âI donât think Iâd allow Cordy to waste the rest of her life with you.â
âThatâs the past!â Patrick retorted. âIâm clean now.â
Sean looked at Patrick from head to toe then.
He had a clean appearance, and while he did not appear exceedingly masculine, he was definitely charming as a man with his mild, refined good looks.
âWhat are you looking at?!â Patrick felt violated-Seanâs stare was a little intrusive just then.
âHereâs your room.â Sean simply turned away. âYou can ask the servants if you need anything.â
With that, he started to leave, reluctant to spend another second with the man.
Patrick felt unusually angry at Sean, who was acting like he was worth his weight in gold.
What was he so smug about anyway?! He would not even look at him twice if he was not Cordyâs cousin!
Sean headed to Cordyâs room and asked, âSo? What made you come back?â
He was happy, however, since he could feel that Cordy was growing to accept their family.
âI just came over with Patrick since itâd be troublesome if you had to come over and take me to the hospital again. He seems a little self-important, but he doesnât really cause trouble,â Cordy told him.
âYeah.â Sean knew that, but Patrickâs mouth did need some correction.
