Of course not!
Those only happened to people who were chosen and lucky. How could the same happen to Cordy?
Her luck had always been dreadfully abysmal.
She moved slightly, but the man beside her stayed asleep. He was in a deep sleep, the same as he had been back then. Cordy finally couldn't resist and lifted the covers to see who the man buried under the covers was.
The last time it happened, she had been young; fleeing had been the only thought on her mind.
Now, there was almost nothing that could happen that she couldn't accept.
She had a dim recollection of what happened last night. Kyle had taken her to the villa where he cheated on her with Noel. He forced her to swallow an aphrodisiac pill, and her body reacted to the drug. In her despair, she recalled hearing a loud bang before the pressure above her disappeared. Amid her hazy state, she heard the brutal sounds of someone getting beaten up. However, her body had felt too hot and uncomfortable for her to get up and see what had happened.
Immediately after, someone picked her up; everything else was a blur. She even wondered if it had all just been a bad dream. If she wasn't in her own bed, she would’ve brushed the entire episode as a nightmare and felt relief.
After all, she never expected anyone to rescue her at that moment.
Cordy got a good look at the man under the pillow.
It was John.
Indescribable emotions washed through her, and she didn't know what they were.
She felt as if someone had trampled all over her.
