A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 502

There was a hint of teasing in Sam’s tone, while Cordy’s pupils dilated.

Surprised?! Aghast was more like it!

Bob was dating Zoe, wasn’t he? Why was he suddenly dating Cora?

What was going on here?

"There's still time before the trial starts," Bob told Cordy. "Let's step out for a moment. I'll tell you in private."

"Okay," Cordy agreed to it immediately.

Sam, however, was less than composed at that. "Hey! Why act all hush-hush? Why can't you talk with me around? Aren't we bros? Bob!"

Bob simply ignored him and left with Cordy.

"Sh*t!" Sam could not help cursing and barking at Bob. "Remember, Bob! Don't lust after your brother's wife!"

Cordy was at a loss for words—it wasn’t surprising that Zoe was always so mean towards Sam.

Even if parents could name their child poorly, there was some truth to name-calling!

At the same time, Cordy and Bob stepped outside the courtroom to one of the walkways, where Bob cut straight to the point. "Zoe and I broke up."

"Why?" Cordy had a hunch, but she didn’t get it.

Bob smiled faintly. "She never liked me. It was always Jay for her, and she was just being grateful to me… I had to let her go and give them my blessings."

Even though Bob seemed thoroughly wounded in contrast to his usual cheerful demeanor, Cordy was still doubtful. "You're saying Zoe’s still into Jay?"

From what Cordy knew, Zoe wasn’t the type who would toy with her partner in a relationship—she decided to be with Bob, and would therefore have given up on all her hopes in Jay.
