A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1209

John asked Cordy just then, "Is there some misunderstanding between you and Wendy? Should we meet up to clear the air?"

"No, there's no misunderstanding," Cordy said resolutely. "It's your own issue since you believe you know what Wendy is like. I was just giving you a head's up out of the kindness in my heart."

"Okay," John replied and said nothing else.

Cordy hung up right then, fuming.

He made it sound as if she was trying to drive a wedge in his relationship and took no notice of her kindness.

She took a deep breath and told herself that it was their business, and she should not have meddled at all.

There was no question that she was embarrassing herself too.

That was when Cordy's phone rang.

She glanced at the caller, calmed herself down, and answered. "Zoe."

"Bad day, huh?" Zoe asked.

"Nope." Cordy denied it right away.

"I can tell from your tone right now, y'know," Zoe said confidently.

Cordy pursed her lips—in the end, there was just no deceiving besties, was there?

"What is it?"

"Nothing. Just wanted to ask if you're feeling alright after drinking so much last night," Zoe said.

"I'm fine. Though I might really have been drunk if we kept at it."

"By the way, what are you upset about?" Zoe asked.
