A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30

After Richard made the gesture, he noticed Cordy blushing and he looked at her in adorable confusion.” Mommy? Why is your face red?”

Cordy only blushed harder from his stare, finally understanding that children had no filter

She quickly said, “Wait here. I’ll get my clothes-you can wear them for now.”

“Okay Richard nodded tamely.

Cordy picked up a T-shirt that just reached his knees, dispensing the need for pants.

She carried him to her soft bed and blow-dried his hair, just as he became even sleepier and started nodding off.

By the time Cordy was done, Richard lay sprawled on her bed, asleep.

Cordy’s heart was gushing with warmth at the sight of his adorable face.

She straightened his tiny frame and pulled a blanket over him, and leaned in to kiss him on the forehead.

After dimming the lights, she picked up her phone and texted John. “Dicky’s sleeping. Why don’t you come get him tomorrow instead?”

There was no instantaneous reply this time, and Cordy took no mind after waiting for a while.

She picked up her own bathrobe and went for a shower, and the doorbell abruptly rang just as she was finished.

Cordy hurried to the front door and saw via the monitors that John was outside.

Did he miss her text?

She opened the door and directly said, “Dicky is asleep.”

John’s eyes, however, darted straight to her attire.

Cordy looked down as well and flushed-she was still in her bathrobe, which dangled loosely from her body.

And she did not even wear a bra…

Bang!
