A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1203

John put an arm over Cordy's shoulder as she kept him standing, letting him press his entire body weight over her.

They slowly headed downstairs and then out of the mansion, where her chauffeur sent him off.

John did not even say goodbye after getting into the car and left just like that.

Cordy heaved a long sigh in turn.

Men!

-

After that night, Cordy did not meet John much, although he would occasionally text her out of politeness whenever he would take Richard to Levine Manor.

Aside from that, they basically did not stay in touch.

Still, on a certain weekend and Richard returned from Levine Manor, Richard mentioned offhandedly, "Daddy is going to marry Wendy."

Cordy was just taking a sip of water and ended up spitting it all over Richard's face.

As he gave her a wounded look, she quickly wiped him. "Sorry, I was just a little surprised… But they just started dating a while ago, didn't they?"

"Are you upset, Mommy?" Richard asked quietly.

"Nope."

"Then why did you get so excited?"

"I was just surprised."

"Oh." Richard did not dwell on that and simply told her, "Well, Daddy isn't young and it's time he settled down, although I'm not sure what Wendy thinks. She's still young, but I don't think she'd say no since she loves Daddy to bits."

Cordy was left melancholic at that and was once again caught in the dilemma of telling John that Wendy did not love him… or that Wendy was not that loyal, at least.

But if John and Richard really found out about Wendy's true nature, Cordy really had a hard time imagining how devastated they would be.

On the other hand, Richard saw that Cordy was not speaking for a while, and he asked, "What's wrong, Mommy?"
