Cordy coolly replied, "There are some things to attend to."She was wondering just then if she should ask Sean to send Richard home, worried that her son would be uncomfortable being alone at the capital.Still, she soon remembered that she would be going back once she settled matters in North City anyway. She was relieved, since she did not want Richard to keep running back and forth."Should I get Dicky—""No." Cordy cut John short before he could finish.John pursed his lips in turn—he could actually feel how distant she was toward him.Still, he stayed silent and reclined against his huge, comfortable seat with his back toward her, staying away from her and pretending to sleep.Cordy ignored him and calmly read her magazine.The flight was a quiet one, and John kept sleeping without moving an inch or responding when the flight attendant arrived to ask for their orders.Cordy thought he really was sound asleep then, if it was not for the airplane suddenly lurching.Cries o

Cordy said nothing, since Jay would understand everything once he met John.She started to leave, while Jay asked in surprise, "Aren't you going to wait, Cordy?"Cordy frowned, so he quickly said, "It's just waiting to see if it's Johnny. I know there's a huge chance that it's a con, but—""No," Cordy said flatly and left without so much as a look behind.Jay found Cordy's reaction peculiar somehow. Was she really doubtful, or…Nonetheless, his heart was racing. He had been restless ever since John called him, and he was actually afraid to tell Zoe in fear that she would get more agitated than him.Hence, he stayed in his wheelchair and watched as the crowd moved around, never catching a glimpse of John.However, just as he was going to presume that he had been tricked, he suddenly glimpsed a familiar figure.It was just one glimpse, and his very blood was excited.Was that really John? That presence was remarkably familiar, even with that face mask and cap…However, Jay re

Zoe kept staring fixedly even as Jay stepped out of the shower, convinced that something was weird with him.Jay felt the creeps from her stare, but there was no question that he was bad at lying, and it would have been better if he had stayed quiet. To stop Zoe interrogating him,he quickly said, "I ran into Cordy yesterday. She just returned to town.""What?!" Zoe exclaimed in surprise, distracted in an instant."Didn't she contact you?" Jay exclaimed in surprise.At the same time, he prayed that Cordy would not skin him for this since he had no other choice."That woman!" Zoe was fuming in turn. Cordy rarely returned, but she never said a word or contacted Zoe!Was she not Cordy's best friend?!Huffing, she whipped out her phone and called Cordy, while Jay heaved a deep sigh of relief from the close shave.-"I just heard from Jay that you came back?" Zoe asked the instant Cordy answered.Cordy happened to be in her own office, working overtime. She had stayed at the capi

Cordy ended up staying in North City for over a month—there was too much for her to do to return to the capital for good, and she could only stay in touch with Patrick over the phone.He was complaining about that every day, and she had no choice but to make time and return on short trips.Patrick was more or less fully recovered and could walk slowly off the wheelchair.He was making a fuss about returning to Rocktown since Cordy was not around the capital.Not wanting to make things difficult for Patrick and make him wait for her at the capital, Cordy decided to go with him to Rocktown and meet his parents as well.After all, Patrick had always been hovering around her, and she never actually did anything for him.However, on the way to the airport, she received a call for Zoe, who was on the verge of tears. "Cordy, Jay doesn't love me anymore, does he?! It's rare for both of us to be jobless, but he's always been leaving early and coming home late recently, and he keeps sighin

Patrick's smile became even more apparent, and he carefully took out the ring and put it on Cordy's finger. It illuminated her perfect cheeks dazzlingly, painting her with breathtaking beauty.Patrick got off the floor, and just as he did, there was a huge gust that kicked the petals on the floor into the air before it started to rain down on them.It was certainly a romantic sight as they were completely engulfed in the petals.Cordy took it all in and was so emotional her eyes welled with tears. "Can I kiss you?" Patrick asked.Cordy smiled—he was such a doofus. She wrapped her arms around Patrick's neck and kissed him.Patrick was taken aback and clearly nervous—so much so that his whole body was shuddering.He was afraid to respond, and their lips stayed locked just like that.Sean was standing nearby as he watched them kiss and embrace each other. The breeze was picking up in strength, ruffling his hair and kicking the petals into the air.It was a beautiful sight
