A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 994

"Let me down..." Cordy tried to reason with John. 'We don't have to die together." ' No one's dying," John told her in no uncertain terms. "I saved you once before. I can do it again."

Cordy had more to say, but he snapped, "Don't say anything. Save your strength-we'll survive this."

And with those words, she could clearly feel his footsteps picking up pace.

She closed her eyes, and stayed silent.

She had already troubled him far too much-she really shouldn’t keep dragging him down.

Cordy felt her body aching all over, but clenched her teeth to stop herself from crying out loud. She leaned over John's back, hearing his rushed breathing.

There were a few times when he seemed to stumble, but he picked himself up again right after.

He never wasted a single second.
