A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1056

Cordy sent Richard back.

Richard saw Cordy leave in the car with a heavy heart, not really knowing how to articulate the feelings inside him.

He could sense that things were going well between his mommy and Patrick.

Mommy treated Patrick very well and vice versa. In fact, Patrick treated him very well.

Everything seemed like it was falling into place.

Richard sighed.

He should not have held out any hope.

It was Daddy who gave up on Mommy, and he should not find it a pity on Daddy's behalf.

In the car, Cordy gave Zoe a call.

"Cordy, did you leave the hospital so soon?" Of course, Zoe knew that Cordy could not possibly call her in front of Nancy.

"Yeah. I just wanted to bring Dicky to visit her."

"Oh. Where are you right now?"

"I'm heading to the office. Let's have dinner tonight."

"Sure. Will your boyfriend be joining us?"

"Yes, he will."

"I got a good look just now. He's quite handsome," Zoe teased.

"He's pretty all right," Cordy said shyly.

"Pretty all right? You're too humble. His looks will rank him in the 90th percentile of all men in the country," Zoe said agitatedly before adding, "But I don't blame you for having such superior taste in men. You used to have a man with looks that dazzled the entire country."

Cordy pursed her lips.

Of course, she knew who Zoe was referring to.

"Did I just say something wrong?" Zoe noticed that Cordy went silent and immediately asked.

"No, you didn't. It's all in the past. Since I've committed myself to a new relationship, I've let go of everything in the past," Cordy said lightly. "Conversely, I'm quite happy with your character now. This means that after you got together with Jay, you've become that heartless yet pure-hearted and happy woman you used to be in the past."

"Since when was I heartless?" Zoe feigned anger.
