Cordy's outburst left Sean stunned for seconds, but before he could speak, Cordy said, "Please."Sean's heart skipped a beat, and he saw Cordy's eyes moist with tears even as she watched him. "Don't stop me if you consider me family."He really must not, because she did not want to trivialize Sean's sacrifice for her. "You're not really protecting me like this," Cordy added. "Did you think I'd feel comfortable living on if you died today? There are times when living is no better than dying—I know exactly how that feels because I've been depressed before.""Just say yes," Patrick suddenly said.Sean turned toward him in surprise—was he really still siding with Cordy now? Was he not supposed to be head over heels for her?!Nonetheless, Patrick held Sean's gaze and said, "Cordy's right. She would feel guilty for the rest of her life if you died for her sake. Just say yes."Patrick knew all too well that Cordy would suffer if she did not try to save John Levine for the rest of her

John forced himself to look up then. "I told you you don't have to save me, didn't I? I don't want to drag you down with me…"His bloodshot eyes paused, as he thought for an instant that he was hallucinating.After all, people tend to think about the ones they wanted to see most when death approached.As such, he stared at Cordy for a long while, as if to confirm if it was her.It was a difficult task too, since Cordy was wearing fireproof overalls, covering her from head to toe—no one might be able to recognize her unless they were familiar with her.Cordy wondered for a second if he recognized her too, and she did not come here to do that—right now, rescuing him was more important.She turned away from John and watched worriedly as the bodyguard bludgeoned the chains as hard as he could.However, the chains were too sturdy to break easily.Minutes later, Patrick's voice rang over Cordy's walkie-talkie, and he sounded urgent. "How's it going over there? I can't find John anywh

Jean was definitely over agitated. However, with the fire around them burning so violently, breathable air was scarce, leaving her hacking violently after her outburst."Ma'am?" Doug asked in concern.Jean did her best to keep herself together. "I'm fine.""It has to be a misunderstanding," Sean said loudly then. "My grandfather would never hurt you or your family!""There's no misunderstanding!" Jean snapped viciously. "My husband died because of your grandfather's schemes! Why else would they leave home together only for my husband to die from the accident while Jesse stayed fine?!""Have you actually investigated the incident?" Sean asked, staying calm. "Everyone knows that the survivor in such a case would be suspected, and no one would have done it so brazenly. And you know better than anyone how careful Jesse was—even if he wanted to kill, he would not have done it so obviously!""That's what makes Jesse smart. Everyone was convinced he would not do something so stupid an

Cordy blinked at John, who said, "I didn't think I'd see you again. This makes it worth it… even if I die now.""No one's dying. Not until the very last moment," Cordy said bluntly."Just go," John told her nonetheless.As Cordy pursed her lips, John repeated himself resolutely, "Go.""Shut up. It'll be done soon enough," Cordy said, averting her eyes.She refused to give up until the very end.And yet, smoke was starting to spill into the basement, and John obviously noticed that.He held her gaze, looking deep into her eyes as she said, "I'm not worth it, Cordy.""This isn't about you," Cordy said coolly. "I refused to let Dicky be fatherless.""You've already taken good care of him.""That still doesn't replace his father.""But he shouldn't lose his mother too."Cordy bit her lip at that, while John continued, "Meeting you was my greatest blessing in life. That's why I feel no regrets."Cordy stayed silent and kept watching as the bodyguard hammered against John's chai

No longer hesitating, Cordy turned and hurried out of the burning manor under her bodyguard's escort.Their surroundings were thoroughly scalding even with their fireproof overalls, and they could hardly move forward.With the fire blazing as it was, they might not make it out if they had a second's delay, especially without fire protection.But that was not something Cordy should worry about—everyone had made their own choices.It was with great difficulty that she and her bodyguard rushed out of Lynd Manor.At the same time, Cordy saw Sean rush out as well, seemingly with another person in his arms.She was uncertain because the figure was wearing fireproof overalls as well—she rushed over to them and heard Sean bellowing hoarsely, "Take him to the hospital! Now!"Cordy was actually stunned—Sean was so worried he seemed to be losing it!Her heart in turn raced when she had a good look at the person in Sean's arms. "What happened? Is that… Patrick?!""He was shot. I can't giv
