A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 264

Once John dozed off, he slept deeply through the night. He didn't realize when Cordy woke up and slipped away.

In fact, history had repeated itself. Last night, he helped Cordy wash her body after she fell asleep. He was afraid she would catch a cold. Once he was done and had taken a shower, he suddenly felt wide awake. His mind was filled with thoughts on explaining the state they were in come morning. By the time he fell asleep, the sun had already started to rise.

However, he silently told himself he would not oversleep as he had back then.

He couldn't let Cordy slip through his fingers again, and he would explain everything clearly.

Luckily, he did manage to wake up just as she was about to leave.

Though she was looking at him in a disdainful manner.

"I..." John started to explain.

Cordy shook his hand off and said, "Just forget about last night. What happened, happened. I'm already used to it. Once you wake up, you should leave."

"Last night, we-"

"I don't want to hate you more than I do now," Cordy interrupted again, turning back to look at John.

The moment her eyes landed on the man, she paused.

After John sat up, the covers fell off his body, and his naked torso was on display. The lingering scratches and bloodied marks on his body were hideous to look at...

Especially his neck.

It was horrifying.

There were teeth marks, deep and red.
