A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 600

Naturally, it wasn’t to say that Cordy’s impression of Lucas improved.

She simply didn’t find it necessary to be confrontational with him.

Nonetheless, Lucas snorted with disdain. "Don't even think about it."

"That won't do," Cordy retorted, and shrugged off her blanket to get to her feet.

Although she was under the impression that she had gotten much better, she must’ve sweated so much that her vision blacked out abruptly the moment she got up; her body suddenly went limp.

Lucas was close enough to react quickly, catching her just as she was about to fall.

His hands were a little firm as he held her in his arms. Cordy felt the world spinning around her, but she soon recovered.

The instant she did, she sensed her own body pressing against Lucas; she even felt his heart racing.

In turn, her heart skipped a beat.

"You really are resourceful when it comes to bewitching men," he said, releasing her.

All the warmth Cordy felt from his kindness was immediately doused by a bucket of ice water, and she pushed him away to stride inside the bathroom.

"If you dare to faint there on purpose, I’ll definitely tell that middle-aged doctor to change your clothes!

Cordy slammed the door firmly shut in his face.

She really mustn’t keep her hopes up when it comes to this man.

She took a shower; she must admit that despite Lucas's blunt words, she was reminded that she should make it fast.

With her body as frail as it was now, she might really faint inside the bathroom.

She just washed herself a little before putting on fresh patient garbs and stepping outside.

She didn’t wash her hair, but the shower left it a little wet and stuck to her clothes.
