"Congratulations!" Jay quickly said, worried that his wife would blurt something astounding again.
The others promptly congratulated John and Cordy as well, while Bob could not help teasing, "Impressive, Johnny—it's been a while, but you still got it! Sam, on the other hand, hasn't had much luck even after all these years. I'm starting to wonder if there are issues…"
"Shut your trap!" Sam huffed. "I'm fit as a fiddle!"
"Really?" Bob raised a brow in contempt.
"Shut it!" Sam snorted, speechless. "You're one to talk, still single after all these years! I at least have a wife, while you have nothing!"
"What?!" Bob was dumbstruck.
"You're the worst off among us four," Sam added.
Bob could have a stroke right then. "Shut up and drink! I won't rest until you're drunk!"
"We don't know who'd be the last one standing!"
The others ignore the two men, who were in their thirties but as petty as children.
They were used to it anyway.
As Zoe calmed down as well, she could not help asking Cordy softly, "So, Johnny wasn't using protection?"
