A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 765

"But I think that Lucas has feelings for you," Richard said firmly. "He likes you."

"Then all the more we should keep our distance," Cordy said with determination in her voice. "The worst thing we can do is to break a couple apart. Dicky, you must always remember, never be a third party in someone else's relationship!"

"We aren't the third party, Nana is the third party!" Richard said adamantly.

Richard typically would not use that tone on her.

He had always been obedient to her, but he was unusually stubborn and strong-headed today.

Did Richard think that Cordy felt wronged by Nana today?

She did not feel wronged.

Firstly, although Nana did malign her, she did not feel like she was disadvantaged at all during the incident today. Conversely, Nana's malicious actions created a rift between her and Lucas.

Secondly, Nana was not an important figure at all to Cordy, and Cordy did not take Nana and what she did to heart.

"Dicky…"

"Lucas really is my daddy," Richard said out loud, no longer able to hold himself back.

Cordy had no words to persuade Richard.

She said helplessly, "Do you really want this daddy?"

"No," Richard denied, "Although I really hate the current Lucas, he's my daddy after all and I can't bring myself to ignore him. I'm really scared that after he regains his memory, he'll regret it his whole life. Mommy, can you please chase Daddy and get him back fast?"

"Dicky," Cordy said earnestly and patiently, "Even if he really is your daddy, it's impossible for Mommy to chase him back. Since he has already made his choice, we should respect his decision."

"But he doesn't remember his past…"

"Whatever it is, this is his choice. He has a brand new life, and if you want him to lead it well, we shouldn't bother him."

Richard saw the look on Cordy's face and decided not to be stubborn anymore.

But in the depths of his heart, he was unable to completely accept reality.

He did not want to stand idly by, seeing Mommy and Daddy going their separate ways.

Daddy clearly loved Mommy so much, and Mommy obviously loved Daddy back.

He did not want them to pass each other by.

Cordy watched as Richard walked dejectedly to his computer, switched it on, and began coding to pass time.

She sighed inwardly.

She wondered if Richard had reached the age of becoming sensitive to his own feelings.
