A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1431

Cordy was left blushing due to Zoe's words, since the latter was clearly right on the money.

"See? I know the man—he's always kept his passionate side bottled," Zoe said smugly. "The man might look cold, but he really lets loose when it's the one he loves. You're going to see even more action from now on!"

"Stop it, Zoe." Cordy was at a loss for words. "You're pregnant. Babies start learning even in the womb."

"Who cares about a slab of meat."

Who on earth calls a baby a slab of meat?!

Still, Zoe turned toward Quinn just then. "So, what have you been busy with lately? It takes you days to reply to a text."

Zoe was certainly fuming—pregnancy was already boring, and what made it worse was Jay stopping her from doing everything!

She felt like she would waste away!

"Things have been busy with Saunderia," Quinn explained. "There were operational issues that almost led to a bankruptcy, so Sam and I were busy for a while."

"Did you just say Sam?" Zoe asked skeptically. "He's working?"

"You should change your opinion on him now." Quinn smiled. "He's a changed man, and not perpetually goofing off like before. It's all thanks to him that Saunderia was brought back from the brink."

Turning toward Cordy then, Quinn was grateful even as she continued, "Of course, it's all thanks to Cordy and John as well. Thank you so much—I'm really afraid to think about what would've happened if you didn't go all out helping us!"

"It's nothing, really." Cordy shrugged nonchalantly. "Still, John did tell me how much Sam changed—he would call sometimes late in the night, when we're both asleep, just to ask John if there were issues with his policies. He's really been working hard."

"Wait, he really changed?" Zoe exclaimed, naturally trusting Cordy.
