A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 690

Cordy could immediately tell that the bracelet was worth a fortune, even priceless.

There was no way she could say it out loud, though.

"This has nothing to do with Nana," Jean told Cordy. "It's just a present to celebrate our first meeting since your return to the family. Don't be shy. I’ll get upset if you keep refusing me."

"That’s right, Cordy. You should just take it—don't get so cagey!" Nana said beside them. "Grandma spent a long time picking it from her private collection. Both Lucas and I think it really suits you. Try it!"

"Cordy, you should accept it since it's a gift," Jesse added.

Even if Cordy really didn’t want to owe anyone anything, she had no choice but to accept the diamond bracelet. "Thank you, Mrs. Lynd."

"We're family, don't be so formal. Come, I'll help you put it on."

"Okay."

With the bracelet on her wrist, the emerald glint on her slender wrist made her look much prettier.

"See? I was just saying it suits you. It's simply gorgeous!" Nana flattered Cordy earnestly. She then nudged Lucas affectionately, saying, "Don't you agree, Lucas?"

"Yeah." Lucas nodded slightly.

"It looks really good on you," Jean echoed. "I'm surprised green diamonds suit you so much, Cordy. I actually have a collection. You can ask for it anytime you want."

"Thank you, Mrs. Lynd," Cordy said. Naturally, she had no such intention.

In fact, she already made up her mind to return it as a gift, when Lucas and Nana had their first child.

That said, she wasn’t sure if Nana could get pregnant, considering the latter’s frail health.

There were fewer guests in Cranston Hall, but that also meant they wouldn’t dare to leave lightly.
