A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 790

Dicky was actually a little surprised—his daddy used to consider him nothing but a brat, but the man now treated him like an equal.

He had wanted to win his father’s acknowledgement for a while, but his daddy was just too formidable. Thus, he couldn’t do much.

However, the one thing he might be better than his daddy was in making his mommy happy.

"What do you think?" Lucas replied, as if it was only natural.

"Okay. I’ll come by later."

"Sure."

And with that, they agreed to meet. Meanwhile, Cordy didn’t even get a word in.

In fact, Dicky couldn’t wait to leave. "Mommy, I want to go play with Lucas!"

"I'm worried about leaving you alone with a stranger," Cordy said, finally getting a reasonable excuse.

"Lucas isn't a stranger—he's Daddy," Dicky said with conviction.

Cordy kept staring at him in silence, and he gave in. "Fine, he's not at the moment. But he's no stranger either—we've met many times."

"Do you know this is how human traffickers kidnap children?'

Dicky was a little speechless. "Mommy, Lucas wouldn't sink that low no matter how bad it gets!"

"Anyway, I'm worried about letting you go anywhere alone."

"I brought my phone. I'll call you if I'm in danger."

"Do you think you'd get the chance if you were?"

"Here's a satellite tracker," Dicky said, hiding it in his clothes as Cordy watched. "I've kept it hidden deep under my shirt so no one will notice, but you can instantly find out where I am."
