A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 50

Chapter 50

Cordy got out of bed and turned to find a glass of yellow liquid on her nightstand.

It had a note on its bottom, which read:

[Honey helps with hangovers. Remember to have breakfast after you wake up-your belly is empty after vomiting, and it’s bad for your help. P.S.: I will be leaving on a business trip and shall return to North City in a week.]

The sharp handwriting was just like the handwriting on the invitation to last night’s banquet.

Cordy picked up the honey and took a sip.

There was a sweetness in its chill, which seemed to seep into the chest.

She felt a mysterious sensation inside at the same time, and she suddenly wondered why John insisted on making her wait last night, just so that he could give her a ride home.

Was it because he had to leave on that business trip and they would not be meeting for a while?

Cordy put down her glass and headed to the bathroom, where she took off the dirty gown and took a bath.

Once she did that, she threw the gown into the trash can.

She got it for free anyway, and it was no skin off her back.

She returned to the living room, intending on lying down for a while on the couch since hangovers really left a person lethargic.

Then, she remembered John’s note saying an empty stomach was bad…

She got up and went to her kitchen, but just as she was going to make a simple breakfast, her phone suddenly rang.

She glanced at the caller, and simply declined the call, ignoring it.

After making breakfast, she brought everything to the table and scrolled through the news, when she saw Kyle sending her multiple messages on WhatsApp.

She pursed her lips but ultimately tapped on the notification and immediately saw the photos on the chat box.

Each of them showed John grabbing on to Zoe York, who was not resisting despite the annoyance on her face.

Things were clearly complicated between them.
