A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 694

Dicky took out the gold bullion, which left Cordy taken aback.

It wasn’t small, and obviously quite heavy.

Handing it to her, Dicky said, "Lucas gave it to me, saying he didn't know what to give. I can't use it anyway, so you can have it."

Cordy was left speechless. Who on earth gives a kid gold bullions?

Fashioning it into jewelry would be more acceptable!

However, a thought occurred to Cordy when she took it.

Was this actually Lucas's gift to her? Was he using Dicky as an intermediary to make amends for losing his temper at her the other day?

After all, it would be more convincing if he gave Dicky something that suited Dicky’s age. An adult, on the other hand…

Cordy decided she was too lazy to figure it out, since it was pointless anyway.

As a business person, she had no reason to refuse a huge gold bullion. In fact, she would be less interested if it was just jewelry.

No one could refuse such a gift.

After having dinner with the Lynds and seeing them off, Cordy left Cranston Hall with Dicky early the next morning. Sean gave them a ride to the airport.

They left, and Jesse stared at them as they headed to the distance.

He had obviously dyed his hair, but Cordy wondered if it was the trick of the light that his hair was getting really white.

"So you're actually sentimental," Sean said, glancing at her through the rearview mirror.

Cordy didn’t say anything, so he continued, "That's blood relations for you. You can be nonchalant about it, but you feel it in your bones before you realize it."

Sean rarely said something that sentimental. He actually found it cringeworthy after that he became silent.

Soon, Cordy and Dicky arrived at their seats on the plane when a familiar voice called out behind her. "Cordy?"

Cordy really wanted to get out of the plane right then. Some coincidences really were bizarre!
