A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1433

"Oh, I didn't know things were going that fast!" Zoe teased. "Quinn's taking charge? Not bad, Sam!"

Sam was usually quite the tsundere, but since there was no reason to pretend around friends, he said smugly, "Can't help being handsome."

"Shut it." Zoe snorted, speechless.

As everyone around the table had a jovial time, Zoe had enough.

Her greatest tribulation now that she was pregnant was not being allowed to drink.

And being the life of the party, she wanted everyone to do it!

"Cordy? Quinn? Why aren't you drinking?!" she demanded.

"Cordy can't drink," John replied.

"Not today!" Sam answered at the same time.

Zoe stared at them, perplexed. "Wait, are both of them pregnant?!"

"I'm not," Quinn promptly said.

"Then why can't you drink?"

"She's on her period," Sam said bluntly.

"Oh, when did you learn to be so caring, Sam?" Zoe teased. "Stopping Quinn from drinking just because she's on her period… I wouldn't have known you improved that much!"

Sam beamed—he was certainly in good spirits.

Done interrogating Quinn just then, Zoe turned toward John, still clearly upset. "So? Why isn't Cordy allowed to drink?"

"No means no."

"Wait, is she on her period too?" Zoe frowned—that was too much of a coincidence!

Cordy blushed in turn, pursing her lips and clearly embarrassed just then.
