A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 708

Cordy stared quietly at the headstone, and at the familiar face on the ceramic photo.

That face that could only be seen in photos now, so close yet so far…

The agony in her heart struck her like a thunderstorm, and she completely lost control as her tears gushed endlessly.

It had been three years, but she believed she would never forget John, even if thirty years had passed.

"Cordy..."

Zoe walked up to her side, feeling a little guilty.

She was spurred by a drunken impulse to bring Cordy here. Had she known this would happen, she would’ve come alone.

John probably just wanted some flowers and candles, and they would just leave them here and be done with it.

Cordy bit her lip, trying to hide her feelings. She really hated letting her feelings out.

And yet, there was no controlling it when it hurt so much.

"Let's just go." Zoe had no idea what else to say, other than taking Cordy and leaving as soon as they were done here.

In fact, she was worried Cordy could die from the agony in her heart or kill herself in the heat of the moment.

As Zoe laid the flowers before John's grave, she said, "I know you miss this world and can't let go of Cordy, but it's really not happening now that you're worlds apart. Really, stop haunting her. I just spent what spare money I had on these flowers, so just move on and don't ever come back."

As Zoe rambled on, Quinn had no choice but to wait until it was time to leave…and then make a break for it.

Forget this place being creepy—Cordy was clearly in a bad shape.
