Chapter 897
A Life Debt Repaid
After the care worker left, Sean pulled Patrick up to his feet and off the table.
Patrick was already dizzy, and the motion almost knocked him out.
He opened his dazed eyes at Sean, all the while feeling that his own body was being dragged along.
Seanâs hand was so forceful that he could die from the pain at that very moment.
âCanât you be more gentle?â he snapped indignantly.
âIâm never gentle.â
âYour wife must suffer a lot because of you.â
âYeah, she does,â Sean replied, and helped Patrick to the bed with considerable difficulty.
He was just about to let Patrick down when Patrick grabbed his clothes, catching him off guard and pulling him down in bed.
As Sean fell on top of Patrick,novelx.o the atmosphere seemed to stiffen even though Patrick was smiling smugly. âYou didnât expect that, didja?!â
ââ¦Youâre incorrigible,â Sean snapped coolly. âLet go.â
âNo,â Patrick retorted, and held on tighter to Sean.
âPatrick Stuart!â
âThreats wonât work with me!â Patrick looked utterly dauntless. âYou wonât kill me and bury me in some unmarked grave, anyway.â
Sean told himself not to get petty with a drunk man, and quickly tried to get up.
However, Patrick caught him again; nÃvelxo he was very strong despite his somewhat delicate appearance.
When Sean couldnât move at all, Patrick bragged smugly, âCanât go anywhere now, can you?â
âYou better not regret this.â
âR-Regret what?â
Patrickâs eyes were wide open,nÃvelxo but he was probably drunk-and unconscious at that.
Why else would he hallucinate something like this?
It took a long time for Sean to manage to get away from Patrick, who suddenly appeared more docile.
Perhaps believing that he was dreaming, Sean fell asleep after some time.
However, Sean watched him quietly as he slept for a whileâ¦
In the next ward, Cordy was quiet as well.
Dicky was going to speak to her novëlxo a few times, but ultimately stopped himself.
He understood that his mommy didnât want him to worry about her, even though she was really unhappy.
Because of daddy? Because daddy was going to marry another woman?
âMommy, Iâm going to Uncle Seanâs room.â
âOkay.â Cordy nodded without asking what he was up to.
After all, Dicky had always been sharp even as a young child. He wanted to let her have the room to herself when he noticed her plummeting mood.
In reality, Dicky was going straight to novëlxo John-even if his daddy was amnesiac, he was convinced his daddy wouldnât get over his mommy so easily.
He had to look around for a while until he reached his daddyâs ward, but his daddy wasnât in there.
He then looked at the next ward, and saw his daddy staying by Nanaâs side.
He was upset, let alone his mommy.
Shouldnât he be staying with mommy right now, especially when she was so depressed?
Both John and Nana saw Dicky at the door, and Nana didnât hesitate to stop John. âDonât.â
John glanced at her, but said nothing as he strode off as he looked on. At that, Nana gritted her teeth in anger.
