A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 589

Although Cordy picked a thicker set of clothes, she still felt a little cold after putting them on.

After musing on it for a while, she decided to go shopping for some thicker clothing with Sean.

Just as she stepped out of her hotel room and entered the elevator, she saw a familiar figure inside, and was left lamenting that she had to run Lucas everywhere she went.

Lucas was scowling when he saw her too, and muttered sarcastically under his breath, "You really know your timing."

Cordy ignored him—there was nothing to say to despicable men like him.

The elevator descended, stopping halfway as many guests swarmed inside, seemingly from a tour group of elderly women.

Cordy was squeezed further inside the elevator, and one of the elderly women knocked into her.

Cordy lost her balance, and fell squarely over Lucas.

She didn’t need imagination to expect more sarcasm from the man, and even steeled herself for it…but it never came.

She frowned, and straightened herself away from him when she realized something.

He actually cared about being respectful—when there's a lot of people around!

And she thought he didn’t give a damn how others saw him.

Nonetheless, things were getting rowdy in the elevator with the elderly women, and they occasionally squeezed Cordy as they moved.

Although she did her best to keep her distance from Lucas, she couldn’t stand the elderly women pressed against her either—in fact, she could barely stand the weight of the one who was currently squeezing against her.

Just as she was about to tell the woman off, another voice spoke sharply from above her, "Ma'am, could you be more considerate and not move around when you're in an elevator? Stop shoving your way back here!"
