A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 693

Cordy didn’t ask Lucas, since she didn’t want to ruin his flirting session with Nana.

However, just as she was rising to her feet…

"By the way, Nana…"

Jean suddenly spoke up, having turned towards them.

Cordy wanted to leave, but felt too awkward to do so since it wouldn’t be proper.

As such, she stayed in her seat and waited for the right timing.

"What is it, Grandma?" Nana replied sweetly.

She seemed to be acting spoiled, but somehow, it felt natural when it was her.

Not many could resist that sweetness—Jean couldn’t be faulted for playing favorites.

"You're planning on getting married to Lucas, right?" Jean asked.

"We are," Nana admitted it openly, while smiling endearingly at Lucas.

"This year, was it?"

"Yes, sometime during autumn. It's when the trees bear fruit—it's an auspicious season."

"Good. Try to set a date soon. Event halls are always in demand here in the capital."

"Don't worry, Grandma. We’ll go down to business once Lucas' parents return to the country, but I'm sure they won't protest."

"Good," Jean replied.

Jesse added, "Remember to send me an early invitation, Nana. I'll prepare a great present for you."

"Thank you, Mr. Cranston." Nana did not refuse, and actually appeared excited.

She turned towards Cordy, and asked, "You'll be free when the time comes, right?"

"We'd have to see," Cordy replied.

She wasn’t being perfunctory, either.

For one, they had yet to decide on the date. Autumn was an entire three months more, and who knew what date they would decide upon?

Secondly, it wasn’t a rarity for urgent engagements to come up for Cordy. There was always the chance she couldn’t make it, and it would be terrible if she missed out on a promise.

"I'll try to send you an invitation early. You have to come," Nana said earnestly.
