Chapter 160

Still, Cordy retorted, “Don’t underestimate your girlfriend’s abilities now.”

“Even so,” John said, “you should remember that your boyfriend owns a mountain of gold bars. It’s hard, reliable, and dazzling.”

Cordy could not help laughing at how vividly John was describing himself.

Changing the subject just then, John asked, “Are you free tonight?”

“…Yeah.” She had been neglecting him for almost two weeks, and decided she should see him even if she was not done with work tonight.

John made the arrangements. “I’ll pick you up after work. We’ll eat at your place.”

Cordy did a double take, and asked to confirm since she believed that she misheard. “There’s nothing to eat at my place.”

“You can make pasta, right?” he asked.

“That’s it?” Cordy asked.

“Yeah,” he replied happily.

Cordy did not say no.

Vince Cartman came in to give her a report just then, and she said, “I’m going back to work now. See you tonight.”

“Yeah.”

With that, Cordy put away oher phone and focused on her work.

It was not until half past seven that Cordy remembered she had a date with John, and she quickly called him.

“I thought you’d forgotten about me, Ms. Sachs,” the melodiously magnetic voice from the other end complained.

“Where are you?’

“Look downstairs,” John replied.

Cordy walked up to the glass wall and peered downward to find that exceedingly conspicuous black Maybach and the man standing next to it, waving to her.

it was a nonchalant gesture, but he looked cool doing it anyway.

“I’ll be right downstairs,” Cordy said, quickly sliding her phone into her bag and leaving work, all while wondering how long John had been waiting.
