A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 266

Cordy wasn't angry at John's words. Looking at the disaster on John's body, she could also tell how out of control she had been last night.

Her face felt like it was on fire, and even her ears were hot.

"Wait a bit. I'll head out and buy some clothes for you," Cordy said as she got up from the bed. "Consider it payback for last night."

John felt like he had gone through life and death last night. Yet, this woman was telling him she'd just buy a set of clothes as compensation?

Well, that was fine.

He was content that Cordy didn't hate him. He was even getting some clothes out of it; that meant he had hit the jackpot.

Cordy went to another room to change, but Zoe tumbled in as soon as she opened the door. The former was startled, and John hastily wrapped the covers tighter around his body to avoid exposing anything.

"Zoe?" Cordy exclaimed while holding onto Zoe, who was about to fall flat on her face.

Zoe had a hard time steadying herself. She tried to explain, "I-I wasn't eavesdropping! I was just gonna knock on the door to call you guys up. It's already four in the evening, you know? You guys did some extreme workout last night, huh? Aren't you guys hungry?"

Cordy blushed at Zoe's comment.

Her world had felt like it was about to crumple when she had woken up, and she hadn't cared about hunger at all.

"You're finally awake, yeah? Then come on out and eat. I ordered some herbal soup. I promise, it’ll help rejuvenate you both!" Zoe said with an energetic grin.

Cordy pursed her lips. "I'm heading out for a bit."

"Huh? Why?"

"I need to buy some clothes for John."

Zoe's eyes went as wide as saucers; she looked as if she was asking Cordy just what in the world Cordy had done to John last night.

Well, Cordy had done something alright.

Just... Not what Zoe was thinking.
