A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 685

Lucas pursed his lips, but said nothing.

"Yes, he’s too worried about me. Otherwise, he'd never yell at people without knowing what happened. He usually doesn't behave like that," Nana defended Lucas.

It appeared as if she wanted them to settle their differences, but in reality, anyone could tell that she was bragging about her close relationship with Lucas.

However, she conveyed herself so naturally there would never be wounded feelings.

"That's how people behave when it comes to people they care about," Cordy said, agreeing to it.

She was convinced it was fine as long as they cleared the air, and that she didn’t need any apologies. It was unnecessary, and was no big deal in the first place.

"Don't worry, Cordy. I'll head home soon and talk to my family to clear the misunderstanding," Nana promised.

"Thank you," Cordy replied, not rejecting the offer since it was naturally better to clear her name. Otherwise, things would be difficult for her grandfather Jesse.

"Of course. But… Could you please not think badly of me and Lucas?" Nana asked tentatively. "I really like you. I mean, you and Dicky are the most beautiful people I've ever met. I'd really like to have a child as handsome as Dicky one day…"

"You definitely can," Cordy replied, encouraging her out of courtesy. "Lucas is handsome, and you're beautiful too. Your children will be no slouch."

"But… The doctors told me that my body probably can’t handle a pregnancy." Nana's gaze darkened.

Cordy was lost for words.

In fact, what could she say?

"I don't like children," Lucas spoke up just then, offering Nana some solace as a boyfriend with perfect timing.

"But I saw how much you liked Dicky," Nana murmured, her gaze miserable as she knew she couldn’t get pregnant.

"You like Dicky too, don't you?" Lucas said shrewdly. "And since you like beautiful people, don't you like yourself?"
