A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1152

Chapter 1152

Patrick picked up the oily green jalapeno, took a deep breath, and chewed.

His mouth was instantly ignited, and he was jumping around in circles." Argh!!!"

Everyone was laughing themselves silly at his reaction, and things could not be more cheerful.

‘ Drink some water, Patrick," Cordy quickly said over the phone, since she knew he could not take spicy food.

' Water, water!" Patrick started looking around while his throat seemed to billow with smoke.

That was when a large, long hand brought a glass of cold water, and no one saw who it was since he was not on camera.

Only Cordy seemed to blink just then.

After Patrick had his drink, he still took a while to recover. "Is this enough, Zoe?"

"Of course not," Zoe said right away.

Patrick could die right then. "What else must I do, ma'am?"

"Did you think you could have Cordy that easily?" Zoe repeated.

"Cut it out, Zoe."

Jay suddenly appeared on screen, while Zoe did a double take.

He was there too? It was their chauffeur who gave her a ride this morning!

"I'm not playing here," Zoe retorted, sounding wounded. "This is serious business. Cordy's happiness is in the balance.”

“It's fine,” Patrick quickly said. "Let's continue.”

Zoe giggled smugly then. "See? That's a good husband right there, unlike you who won't even give me a wedding."

Jay was left feeling awkward, though Zoe was good enough to liven up the atmosphere and redirect everyone's attention.
