Chapter 31
Cordy was speechless-she was under the impression that John had missed her message “Then what are you doing here?”
“Dinner
Cordy somehow had no comeback against that.
“Where’s the bathroom?” John asked.
“My room,” Cordy replied-she was living alone and did not need a shared bathroom, so she just had it cleared for a study instead.
John entered, glancing at Richard, who was sleeping soundly in bed, before heading inside the bathroom.
Cordy was going to turn and leave when she remembered something, and she dashed toward the bathroom just as John was about to close the door
John raised a brow “Ms. Sachs “”
Cordy flushed again-she had left her clothes and undergarments in the bathroom after showering
She grabbed everything at once, looking flustered as she held them behind herself
John was looking with a smile
As Cordy was about to turn and leave again, he called out, “Ms Sachs?”
She turned again and flushed once more-he was holding her bra, even flapping them between his well- built fingers!
She dropped it? And he picked it up?!
Did he not understand that there were things that must not be simply picked up from the floor? Or that seeing no evil was a thing?
Cordy promptly snatched her bra off his hands and left as if fleeing, her ears crimson!
When John stepped out of the bathroom, Cordy was on the couch, having calmed herself down.
They were adults and it was nothing to be ashamed about.
