A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 614

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 does look good. Even as he took a nap, huffing, he's a little…

'Alright, let's stop there.'

Patrick turned his eyes 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 definitely would not see each other.

And it certainly was how things turned out—a week after Cordy returned to North City, she never saw Lucas again and almost forgot all about him.

That is, aside from when she had trouble sleeping.

On such occasions, when the night was dead silent, she would remember how soundly she slept in Lucas' arms.

Despite feeling an impulse then, she certainly knew she should not go so far as to rush to Lucas and ask him to warm her bed.

Even so, she yearned for that rare occasion of deep sleep ever so slightly.

A week later, Cordy made time to bring Richard with her to Levine Manor.

Nonetheless, Nancy was now the eldest member of the family, and she had really been eager and working hard to bring everyone together.

"Dicky," Nancy exclaimed as she gave Richard a bear hug. "I missed you so much! Did you miss me?"

"Yes," Richard replied politely. "I missed you too."

"It's been a while, you've sprouted again! How tall are you now?" Nancy was certainly warm toward Richard.

"Five feet two the last time I checked."

"No way! You're taller than that," Nancy said, comparing himself to the boy then.

"I don't know, but Mommy's been saying that I had a growth spurt too."

"You'd be taller than me the next time we meet."

"Of course Dicky would be taller than you, Mom. He's a boy," Cora quickly added.

With that, both women started having a lively chat as they flanked Richard, creating a jovial atmosphere in the house.
