A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1207

Wendy called Cordy the next morning.

However, after Cordy got home, she kept waking up in her sleep, since all she could think about was Wendy cheating on John with another man…

Naturally, her temper flared as soon as she saw Wendy's call, which was why she snapped a little loudly at Wendy, "Wendy, did you forget your own promise last night?!"

"I can explain, Cordy," Wendy quickly said. "I was just a little tipsy last night, so I was afraid that John would get upset with me if I went to his place. I headed to my parents' home instead, but I really did not do anything wrong. You have to trust me."

"Really? And why should I trust you?" Cordy sneered.

"I…" Wendy tried off, unsure how to explain herself.

However, after a moment of silence, she suddenly asked, "Cordy, are you still in love with Johnny?"

"What?!" Cordy bellowed, clearly incensed by that response.

She had always been calm—in fact, she was calm when she caught Wendy being up to something so outrageous just last night. In fact, she consciously decided to resolve the matter rationally instead of telling John immediately.

But now, that single line from Wendy left her flustered.

And to make things worse, Wendy pressed the issue. "I hit the nail on the head, didn't I?"

"Wendy!!!"

"Cordy, I've always had faith in your character," Wendy simply continued with righteous indignation. "I thought since it was over between you and John, it really was over. I even respected your relationship with him, since I know that you can't really keep your distance when you both have a child together. I fully accepted Dicky in my life, but now I think you're venturing out of line."

Cordy was really angered then and snapped, "I'm just a person with virtue and integrity! What's the problem if I take issue with your behavior and stand for justice? It won't be just me—anyone who saw what you did last night won't be able to pretend nothing happened either!"

"That's still my business! You don't get to have a say!" Wendy retorted furiously. "Let me be clear: I don't want you to meddle in my relationship with John!"
