A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 985

Meanwhile, the banquet hall erupted in thunderous applause as Nana and John stepped down from the stage.

Soon, the wedding luncheon started, and the table was served full of dishes fit for kings.

Cordy hadn’t actually done anything, but found herself staring at a little hill of food on her plate.

Anyone who did not know would think she was famished.

"That's enough, Patrick," Cordy whispered to him.

"No! You should be eating more to get your money's worth," Patrick said seriously. "You'd be hurt emotionally and physically otherwise, and that would be a net loss."

While Cordy was left speechless, Patrick urged, "Go on, eat."

Cordy decided then that the man spoke sense, and started to eat as much as she could.

Halfway through, John and Nana came to toast everyone, with Nana on a wheelchair.

Everyone promptly rose to their feet and cleared a spot for Nana, while congratulating everyone loudly.

"Thank you," John answered politely.

He didn’t even glance at Patrick or Cordy, and quickly tried to wheel Nana away, only for Nana to suddenly call out, "Cordy."

Cordy pursed her lips—Nana loved to harass her whenever possible, just like she was doing right now by deliberately telling Cordy, "I'm so happy to see you. I thought you wouldn't come."

The other guests were naturally left perplexed, since Cordy was never revealed to be a member of the Cranston family yet and her presence in this wedding was a mystery. However, seeing that she came with Patrick and the Stuarts being a grand dynasty themselves, it made sense that he was attending this wedding, so most would presume he brought Cordy as his plus one.

But now, Nana's words left everyone confused.

"It's only natural I should witness your big day personally." Cordy smiled faintly. "Congratulations, and here's a personal toast—to love forever, and getting children soon."

She raised her glass and generously offered her blessing, while Nana had to force a smile.

Cordy could keep tight a lid on her feelings, and was capable of staying unaffected at any movement.
