Chapter 943
A Life Debt Repaid
âYour legsâ¦â
âIâm fine,â Cordy replied with great certainty.
âOkay, get up and eat,â John suggested.
He also got up to walk out.
âJohn.â Cordy stopped him.
John turned around in a very natural manner.
Facing her gaze, he said calmly, âWell, Iâll let you call me like that if you want. After all, itâs just these two days.â
A tinge of disappointment overcame her.
For a moment, she thought he remembered everything.
âIs there anything else?â John asked indifferently.
âMy legs are hurt. Can you carry me?â
âIsnât there a wheelchair here?â
âBut I canât get out of bed.â
âHow did you get into bed?â
âIs it very difficult to carry me for a while? Iâm not fat.â Cordy flared up in a rage.
She felt that it was very hard and tiring to speak to him.
Why was he so annoying after he lost his memory?
She wondered if she could get his old self back.
John was hesitant for a while. After that, he bent down and carried her from the bed.
She was fuming with anger in the previous second, but now her heart softened.
She leaned on him docilely.
It turned out that the familiar scent on his body was because he was John.
John placed Cordy on the chair in the dining room.
He even helped her adjust her position after putting her down.
Cordy slowly revealed a smile.
âHavenât you eaten?â Cordy asked.
It was now past eight at night.
âNo.â
âWere you waiting for me?â
âI just woke up.â John ruined her fantasy.
âYouâre lying.â Cordy did not believe him.
âWhatever.â John did not explain further as he lowered his head to eat the dinner delivered by the hotel.
He had indeed just woken up because he was suffering from insomnia too the night before.
He did not know what Cordy would do to him todayâ¦
He was filled with both eagerness and fear.
That kind of conflicted emotion made him unable to fall asleep.
So, he dozed off on the sofa in the living room after he went there and noticed that she had fallen asleep.
When he woke up, it was past seven oâclock. He thought that she might soon wake up, so he ordered room service to get some food.
When the food was just delivered, he heard Cordyâs scream, which scared him.
When she saw him eating on his own, she also started eating angrily.
She did not know if she was eating in a fit of anger or not, but she ate a little too much.
After that, she became so full that she did not even want to move.
She stretched her body. âJohn, letâs go out for a walk.â
âYou can walk?â John looked at her legs.
âI have a wheelchair, right?â
John was struck speechless.
John pushed her out of the hotel villa and enjoyed the sea breeze on the beautiful private beach.
They were quiet most of the time.
John would not speak first no matter what.
Cordy put away the things she wanted to say most of the time.
He had lost his memory, so it seemed futile no matter what she said.
âAchoo!â
Suddenly, Cordy sneezed.
The night breeze was slightly chilly, and she inevitably hugged herself.
In the next moment, she felt a warm coat on her body.
Cordy turned around to look at John.
âI donât want to take care of the patient anymore,â he said gloomily. âItâs annoying.â
âWhy didnât you let go if itâs annoying?â Cordy asked.
Of course, she knew that he was referring to Nana.
âShe once saved my life.â
âSo, do you have to give yourself up to her just because of that?â Cordy became very angry. âJohn, we can be grateful, but itâs not an excuse to control a person. Nanaâs actions made her unworthy for you to give yourself up for her!â
