Cordy denied it right then. "Nope."John's personality was not as rotten as his. "Yeah, I thought so too." Patrick sighed in relief then. "At least you won't hook up with him and dump me because of who he looks like.""I would never," Cordy said bluntly—that was never going to happen.With that, Cordy and Patrick returned to her room and had lunch together before getting in the hotel's car to get to the airport. They both had first-class tickets, but Cordy was not sitting with Patrick because their tickets were not booked together. Patrick waited for the one who would sit with Cordy so that he could ask to trade seats.However, both him and Cordy were stunned when they saw who it was.It had to be the mother of all coincidences! -Naturally, it was none other than Lucas.Why on earth would he go to North City instead of staying at the capital? Cordy actually wondered if he was tailing her.On the other hand, Lucas's expression darkened when he saw Cordy as well, looki

Patrick shrugged. "I'm just telling you. Don't upset Cordy, or I won't be kind.""You're nuts," Lucas snapped, and put on his headset and eye mask for some shut-eye.Patrick smiled evilly in turn.Did Lucas think Patrick would not be able to mess with him?!That said, the man did look good. Even as he took a nap, huffing, he was a little…'Alright, let's stop there.'Patrick turned away right then.Right now, he loved Cordy more.-Their flight arrived at the airport after two hours, and Cordy left with Patrick first.Lucas was behind them, but once Cordy and Patrick got out of the airport, they left right away. Cordy was convinced that they would never see each other again, especially since North City was a big place.In the capital, they had an intermediary in Maron and happened to stay at the same hotel. It was why they seemed inseparable.On the other hand, she would never stay at a hotel in North City, and since they did not have anything connecting them, they defini

Cordy could not help asking Jay just then, "Have you thought about looking for Zoe?"Jay shook his head.After Zoe left all those years ago, Cordy actually asked Jay what on earth was happening between him, Zoe, and Bob Davis—and why Zoe would break up with Bob.Jay told her the truth then: Bob's mother had gone to Zoe, after which Zoe asked Jay to stage an act with her and break up with Bob.That begged the question: why did Jay not stay with Zoe after she broke up with Bob?Jay stayed silent, but he did not answer that question even now or ever go to Zoe.Cordy actually had the feeling that Jay was still in love with Zoe. However, he also knew that he would never get Zoe back because she had really given up on him, and he therefore simply allowed her to leave.Or maybe he was just calling it quits because of his disability?!"Zoe has found her own happiness," Jay said evenly then, as if he utterly and genuinely got over her.Cordy nodded in silence—one could also tell if a r

The man's face was swollen like a pig's—it was quite hilarious. Cordy had to restrain herself from laughing out loud, and she turned back to Lucas.That minor bruising on his face was really nothing in comparison."I'm not." Cordy denied it then."Whatever. He's either apologizing to me, or I'm suing!""What I did was legal self-defense," Lucas retorted slowly and sharpply."Self-defense?! When you left me like this?!" The man became even more agitated, and the officer nearby had to bark, "Keep it down!"The man calmed down a little but still growled indignantly, "How is it self-defense if I ended up like this?""It's self-defense even if the other guy is dead," Lucas said coolly."S-See?! Officer, he wants to kill me! Why should I settle?!" The man appeared relentless."Enough!" The officer barked at the man impatiently before turning toward Cordy. "Your friend got drunk and got involved in a fistfight at the bar, and he refused to apologize or pay compensation. If this c

The man became agitated right then. "Are you kidding me?! He hit me, but I should apologize?! You were just messing with me, weren't you?!Cordy threatened him in turn, "I was very clear. I'm compensating you for the injury my friend inflicted, but you were in the wrong because you provoked him first. I won't pay you if you don't apologize, and I'm not afraid of a lawsuit either—there are plenty of others present to testify if you struck first or if my friend did. And I'm sure there would be cameras there as well!"The man was left staring at her, stunned.He never expected that despite her beauty and delicate appearance, she was actually this tough!He glanced at the police officers nearby, but they were not saying anything.Their objective was simple—to have the matter resolved, and that would be one less issue for them."I'm counting to three. It's a lawsuit if you still refuse to apologize," Cordy said, staring sharply at the man. "One. Two…"Alright, I'll apologize," the ma
