A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 163

Chapter 163

John’s presence was menacing as he demanded, “What are you doing here?!”

Zoe did not dare to speak at all, since she never moved out of Cordy’s house even after John prepared another for her.

At the same time, Cordy took a moment to gather herself before stepping out of her study-she could not stand seeing Zoe trembling in fright like a small animal.

“It’s late. You should go,” Cordy told John.

John pursed his lips-he still seemed to feel Cordy on his lips.

But he did not have a taste!

Still, scowling, he growled, “What are you doing here?”

It was likely that he would remain upset if he did not get to vent his frustrations.

“…” Not knowing how to answer at all, Zoe turned to Cordy for help.

“I told her to come,” Cordy said. “I was worried because she would be alone, so I let her stay with me.”

“Why would she have problems living alone? She ran away from home at eighteen!” John growled through his teeth.

“Then why don’t you move in with Cordy? If you can, I’ll move out!” Zoe suddenly snapped, having mustered her courage and making a look of utter provocation!

While John’s face turned green, Cordy was left in an awkward situation.

If these two really got in a fight, should she really mediate?

“Anyway, I’m tired-I’ve been shooting all day, so I need a bath. You two can keep going. I promise

I won’t come out,” Zoe said then, quickly making her escape.

If she stayed, John might really beat her up.

But even as she left, he bellowed after her, “You’d better delete that crap you put on Cordy’s laptop!”

Zoe did a double take before coming to a realization.
