A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 695

It was a little awkward, especially since Cordy hated anything conspicuous.

Even so, Patrick was pulling every trick he could to declare his passion for her. He was almost stubborn about doing the exact opposite of what she preferred.

Still, she held Dicky's hand and walked towards Patrick.

"Welcome back," he greeted them.

"And what are you doing in North City?" Cordy asked.

"To receive you, of course."

"And how'd you know what flight I was on?"

"For my beloved, I'd brave hell and high water—"

Noticing Cordy's glare, he promptly admitted, "I asked your assistant."

Cordy wondered if she should start questioning Randy’s loyalties.

"Come on. I'll give you a ride home—"

"Cordy? Is that your boyfriend?" Nana suddenly asked.

She and Lucas weren’t far, just a few paces. She quickly approached Patrick the moment she saw him.

"And you are…?" Patrick asked, frowning at Nana.

He didn’t remember her among Cordy's list of family and friends.

"Hello. I'm Nana Lynd, Cordy's cousin."

"You have cousins?" Patrick gasped in surprise.

"I obviously fell out of the sky when I was born," Cordy snorted in annoyance.

Patrick blurted, "But I thought you disowned all your family…"

He gave in immediately when he saw another sharp look from Cordy, and apologized immediately. "Yes, yes, I apologize for my shallow knowledge. I’ll reflect upon my sins."

"Then… Are you Cordy's boyfriend?" Nana pressed.

Patrick began, "It's actually a work in progress—"

"He is," Cordy suddenly caught him short, wrapping her hands around Patrick's arm.
