Chapter 1287
A Life Debt Repaid
Zoe was very much smug. âJohnâs really announcing to the world that heâs marrying the finest bride, isnât he? The wedding in North City was exceedingly grand, but he still managed to take it to new heights here at the capital.
Whoever wants to use the âwedding of the centuryâ title from now on must at least surpass what he did.â
âActually, itâs not all him,â Cordy muttered.
âWhat?â Zoe exclaimed in surprise.
âMy family definitely had a hand in this too,â Cordy explained. âWe married without the familyâs approval before, so they want to announce my status as a Cranston. Thatâs why they would work together to make it so grand.â
âI think itâs just an excuse,â Zoe said very confidently. âJohn would be unable to resist telling the whole world! Itâs like heâs afraid youâd run away, marrying you like thisâhaha!â
Cordy did not argue since it was something John could do.
âAnd here I thought Iâd seen his bag of tricks-that wedding in North City was plenty enough. To think that he could still put up another stunning performance! Heâs really amazing!â Zoe said proudly.
Cordy was speechless and turned.
As she looked at the mirror, she inadvertently noticed that Quinn was exceedingly silent even as she sat beside her.
She was a lawyer, so she always appeared more mature.
However, Quinn was just too silent today, and she usually would be infected by Zoeâs mood when Zoe was around. â
âQuinn?â Cordy called out to her just then.
Quinn did a double take and slowly smiled. âOh? Yeah, itâs very lively.â
Naturally, she was referring to John and Cordyâs wedding.
Cordy then asked offhandedly, âIs Sam coming out of the capital?â
âI donât know.â Quinn shook her head.
She came here with Zoe, and Sam never answered Quinnâs texts when she asked-so she had no idea.
However, he would come unless something came up, considering that he and John went way back.
âI think I saw him on the livestream just now,â Cordy said.
Quinn nodded but did not say anything else.
Cordy followed suit.
Relationships do get complicated, after all.
Cranston Hall became lively at 9 AM, and Zoe excitedly locked the door, probably because John had arrived.
The girl certainly loved to have fun.
Still, Bob snapped bluntly from outside the door, âState your demands, Zoe YorkâI know itâs you. Donât forget that itâs John whoâs getting married today⦠unless you have something against their marriage?!â
Zoe rolled her eyesâBob always knew how to get on her nerves!
Cordy smiled at her reaction, while Bob added loudly from outside, âOpen the door if youâre actually smart. Thereâs all the gifts you want here.â
Zoe turned toward Cordy. âI really hate that man.â
Cordy smiled.
It was not her first wedding in recent days-one might say that it was one too many.
Although she was excited, she was still a little worn out.â Open up.â
âFineâ¦â Zoe muttered reluctantly and opened the door.
However, a huge group of people swarmed inside as soon as she did, which really startled everyone inside!
While Zoe was still left stunned, Jay had wheeled up to her, pulling her aside in fear that she got hurt.
Zoe glared at them and could not help snapping, âThugs!â
âGifts! Gifts!â a staff member exclaimed excitedly then.
Bob-or John, more specifically-was certainly generous, giving everyone hefty boxes of presents.
The makeup artists were all grinning from ear to ear from their rewards, allowing John to reach Cordy easily.
