A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 952

The clear clinking sound melted into the sound of the waves crashing along the coast.

Cordy sipped from the glass.

She said, "John, does this not seem familiar to you?"

"Not at all."

"All right." Cordy chuckled.

Her smile was clearly laced with sorrow.

John turned his face away to look into the distance where the boundless ocean lay ahead beyond the horizon…

The sky was turning darker and darker by the minute.

The candlelight mingled with the soft glow of the lamps, intensifying the romantic atmosphere around them.

A touching melody suddenly came from afar.

It was the lilting notes of a violin drifting from a quiet corner.

Cordy stood up from her seat, and John looked at her.

He saw her taking one difficult step at a time toward him, reaching her hands out by way of invitation. "Shall we dance?"

John looked at her from top to toe. "Are you sure you can still dance?"

"Of course I can."

John chuckled helplessly, although he stood up anyway.

He walked toward Cordy, and she wrapped her arms around his neck very naturally.

Cordy seemed to really like hugging him like that, and he did not detest it…

He went with the flow and wrapped his arm around her tiny waist.

He did not dare to move much for fear of aggravating her leg injury.

At that moment, he saw Cordy remove her shoes carefully and step on his leather shoes.

John chuckled dotingly.

'That was very quick-witted of her,' he thought.

The moment he felt that Cordy was steady, John wrapped his arms around her and swayed gently to the music.

The sea breeze caressed their cheeks.

It felt as if the whole world was asleep except for them. The only thing they could hear were each other's heartbeats thumping wildly in their chests.

The song came to an end and then soon after, another melody drifted into their ears.

It went on almost endlessly like this, one song after another.
