And the future was right in front of them.
Everyone stayed at Jesse’s ward for a while, and Cordy’s eyes were still red as they left.
She must admit that she felt relieved like never before, as if she really bade farewell to the past and
made peace with it after telling her grandfather that John was there with them, alive.
And she would always allow John to be in his life, always.
Returning to Cranston Hall, John was leading Cordy to her room to get some rest when she said
bluntly, “I’ll rest later. You can go to our room for now-l want to talk to Patrick.”
John naturally knew what they would discuss, and Patrick agreed to it cheerfully.
The last time they met was at their botched wedding- others aside, the two of them were still business
partners, and they should not stay away from each other forever.
“Okay,” John said simply.
“I’ll take you to your room,” Sean offered, letting Cordy and Patrick be alone.
After John and Sean left, Cordy and Patrick headed to the tearoom outside Cranston Hall, holding each
other’s gazes before they smiled at each other in understanding.
They certainly knew that their mutual smiles meant they had gotten over their past and were relieved-
even offering each other their blessings.
“So? When did you get together with my cousin?” Cordy eventually asked.
Patrick blushed, not expected Cordy to be so direct.
He took a sip of tea. “I’m afraid you can’t accept it.”
“What can’t I accept it? I mean, I can accept that he’s…”
She suddenly trailed off-to be honest, she had trouble accepting the truth.
No matter how she thought about it, Sean just was not…
Granted, she also understood now why Sean was so cold to his ex-wife and was always on the search
for an heir to the Cranston legacy.
So, he could not produce a progeny… but in that case, what was the deal with his ex-wife and child?
Could it be one of the sham marriages that rumors often mentioned, although it was not that well
concealed as a secret?
In the end, once they were discovered, she left with her child.
While her thoughts were a little jumbled, Patrick waved a hand before her eyes. “What’s on your mind?
Please tell me it’s family friendly.”
Cordy rolled her eyes-he only ever seemed to think about that stuff. “I was thinking about my cousin
and his ex-wife…”
“You didn’t know that it was a fake marriage?”
“For the child?” Cordy found that unacceptable-he always thought Sean was upstanding and incapable
of such despicable behavior.
Still, Patrick suddenly snapped, clearly upset, “How could you think of Sean that way?!”
Cordy frowned at him-already jumping to his beloved’s defense?!
Nonetheless, Patrick explained, “His ex-wife was actually his friend’s lover. His friend happened to die,
so to protect her from being scorned and giving the child a proper family, they pretended to be family.
But the woman could not get over her dead lover even years later-Sean was the one who arranged for
their divorce and even sent them abroad.”
“He never told me.” Cordy was a little jealous.
This was terribly serious, and it was Patrick-a person outside the family-who told her?!
Patrick grinned smugly, as if bragging like he had won!
“So. When did you start dating him?” Cordy pressed. “You didn’t answer me.”
“The day after our wedding was called off.”
Cordy was left staring at Patrick, suddenly remembering that she told Sean to console Patrick.
And it turned out they ended up ‘talking’ in bed!
