A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 742

Lucas was alone, and Nana was not in sight.

Richard saw him too, and excitement showed in his eyes.

His enthusiasm never dampened whenever he saw Lucas—he did not talk to Lucas earlier at the hospital because the atmosphere there had been grim.

However, he refrained from going up to Lucas, and the thought that his daddy had abandoned his mommy made him upset again.

Lucas was actually surprised to see them there.

Should they not be staying at Cranston Hall?

Cordy was also surprised to see Lucas there, since he should be staying with the Lynds.

It was as if they would inevitably run into each other if they were in the same city…

"Ms. Sachs?" the front desk receptionist called out to Cordy just then. "Your room card..."

"I'm checking out," Cordy said determinedly right then.

Lucas clearly blinked just then.

"Checking out, Ms. Sachs?" the receptionist asked, to confirm what she said.

"Yeah. I'm not staying here," Cordy said bluntly.

"Oh, alright. One moment please," the receptionist replied politely and professionally.

"Why?" Lucas ultimately could not resist asking.

"There are people I'd rather not see around here," Cordy said bluntly.

Lucas was left scowling, while Cordy waited until the receptionist was done with the paperwork and started to leave with Richard without delay.

"Cordy," Lucas called out from behind just then.
