A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 671

Seeing that Cordy wasn’t reacting for a long while, the girl asked awkwardly, "You don't remember me?"

Cordy wondered if she could say no.

Nonetheless, the girl flashed an innocent smile and introduced herself. "Well, it makes sense that you'd forget since you're so beautiful, while I'm so plain. We met just yesterday outside that store. We were both waiting for someone."

Cordy smiled, feeling that it would be impolite if she still stayed distant. "Yeah, I remember."

"Really?" The girl was beaming. "I'm so glad that a beauty like you would remember me!"

Cordy smiled faintly in turn, and glanced at Lucas, who stood by the girl and stared at her.

Was he worried she misspoke?

But he had nothing to worry about—she loathed him, but she wouldn’t sink that low.

"You think my boyfriend looks just like your son, right?" the girl asked excitedly.

Cordy blinked.

She was just glancing at Lucas once, yet the girl noticed?

Still, she had to admit that the girl was very tactful—she was obviously asserting dominance, but she was smart enough with her words to stave off any awkwardness.

"Yes," Cordy nodded.

"That's what I've been saying, but Lucas insists otherwise. By the way, where's your son? You must be here with him, right?"

"Over there," Cordy pointed.

Dicky was too engrossed to notice what was going on with Cordy, though Sean did turn to look even though he was keeping Dicky company.

"That's your husband, right?" the girl asked, seeing Sean. "He's so handsome! You two look like a good match.

"You too," Cordy replied, not inclined to explain herself. It was pointless to clear misunderstandings with strangers, after all.

She could also sense the look of disdain from Lucas, and she certainly could tell what was in his mind.

Naturally, he was mocking her for two-timing. What else could it be?

However, she didn’t care about leaving an impression.
