Chapter 1195
Cordy quickly said, "No, it's not made for me."
She could understand that Richard meant no harm since he was still a child.
But with Wendy around, saying something like that was inevitably inappropriate.
"No, it really was made for you," Wendy said bluntly then. "I told Johnny to make it for you, since Dicky said you like it. Why don't you have a taste?"
Cordy pursed her lips, surprised that Wendy was that magnanimous.
In contrast, she felt petty.
Nonetheless, she opened her mouth and ate the slice.
It was much softer than those purchased, and its sweetness melted in her mouth right away.
In fact, Cordy had not been feeling an appetite, but she was suddenly seized by an impulse to start gluttoning.
"It's good, right?" Wendy asked her expectantly.
"Yeah."
"That's what I've been saying," Wendy said sweetly. "I'm so lucky to have met Johnny. He's rich, handsome, kind, and a good cook.
He's just so perfect..."
Cordy was going to tell her that she did not have to go that far just to brag about her boyfriend, but Wendy seemed to realize it herself. "Sorry, you don't mind, do you? I didn't mean to brag."
"No, I don't." Cordy smiled faintly.
"By the way, Mommy..." Richard suddenly called her, remembering something just then.
"What is it?"
"My teacher told us to include some family photos as well."
"Family photos?"
Richard turned toward Wendy just then. "Wendy, can you take a photo of our family?"
"Of course." Wendy agreed to it right away, seemingly not taking offense when Richard said ’our family'.
Naturally, Cordy could not refuse either.
Richard then suggested, "Let's do it in the backyard."
