John looked up at Cordy, and she returned his gaze with a look of apathy.
Though they held each other's gaze for just a second, a man as sharp as Sean clearly noticed that something had changed between them.
It was certainly a dramatic change in chemistry between those two, especially compared to how they were just days before…
"Where are you going?" John asked Cordy just then.
"Cranston Hall," Cordy replied, without asking where he went for days and why he was only returning now, or how things were going between him and Nana.
"I see. You should go," John said.
Cordy pursed her lips.
She would have told Sean to wait if John had asked her to stay, since Sean's announcement about getting the cops involved could wait.
Her presence there was also not necessary either.
But he did not ask her to stay…
"Okay," Cordy said and left with Richard right then.
John watched as she went, his gaze turning dark just then.
In the car, Sean could not resist asking, "So… what's the story with you and Lucas?"
