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.”

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

He never wasted a single second.
