A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 684

As Lucas entered the room, Sean stirred—he was the type who got woken up easily.

Staring at the blanket over himself for a moment and then at Cordy, he asked, "How long have I been asleep?"

"Less than ten minutes," Cordy said feebly. As a chronic insomniac, she had a profound empathy for being woken up abruptly.

Sean stretched his arms, and didn’t appear to be upset from being woken up abruptly. "I wasn't tired, but fell asleep for some reason. You brought me this blanket?"

"It's nothing."

"I know." Sean smiled faintly. Was she really so concerned to let on that she was actually that nice?

She definitely got that from her mother, his aunt.

"Come in," Lucas said, suddenly emerging from Nana's room. "Nana’s asking to see you."

"She's finally awake," Sean said, though his tone was a little grumpy.

"Yeah," Cordy said, and nothing else as they followed Lucas inside.

Nana's face was still pale and she looked enfeebled, but she smiled when she saw them come in. Seeing her like that, anyone would be afraid to speak too loudly in fear of affecting her, let alone throw a fit.

"I'm sorry I asked you to come all the way here to see me," she spoke before they could. "I've actually been waiting, but I think I dozed off because of my meds. Sorry to keep you waiting."

"It's fine. I had nothing to do anyway," Cordy said flatly.
