Chapter 1290
A Life Debt Repaid
Cordy smiled. âWeâll be seeing each other soon.â
âYeah, butâ¦â John trailed off.
âWhat is it?â
âYou just said you love me.â
While Cordy was left speechless, he said, âI love you too.â
âI know,â Cordy replied calmly, though she could feel butterflies in her stomach.
âSee you later,â John said then, reluctantly releasing her hand.
However, before Cordy turned to leave, she suddenly turned and threw her hands around his neck, standing on her toes to kiss him.
As John froze, she said, âIâm not going to run away, John Levine. Never ever.â
âYeah.â He smiled and nodded.
Naturally, Zoe was smiling pointedly at Cordy when she entered the dressing room. âI saw everything, yâknow⦠he must be beside himself with joy right now. Heck, I bet he has a big dumb smile on his face in the dressing room.â
Cordy blushed, but she had to agree it was likely.
âWell, youâre finally going to be with him now.â Zoe sighed emotionally.â Honestly? Itâd kill me too if you didnât end up with him.â
In reality, Cordy thought she would find it a terrible regret too.
âWell, now that things are settled on our endâ¦â Zoe said, tuning toward Quinn. âYouâre the one left, Quinn.â
Quinn had been sitting quietly in a corner and only came to her senses when she heard her name.
She smiled. âWhat about me?â
âYour rocky marriage, girl!â Zoe said bluntly.
Cordy turned toward Quinn as well.
Zoe was not as carefree as everyone would think, since she actually empathized with others a lot.
She just did not like to get all mushy over it.
âIâm fine.â Quinn smiled.
âWhat, youâre actually doing fine with Sam Saunders?â Zoe frowned.
âI mean, my marriage has always been rocky. Iâm used to it.â
âUsed to it? Marriage is for life-donât get used to that!â Zoe snapped sternly. â Are you going to stay married to that man like that and leave things so ambiguous between you two?!â
Quinn could not argue against that.
âHeck, I never understood whatâs the deal between you and Sam,â Zoe huffed. âYou used to loathe him, but now, years later, you have feelings for him?! And he has a criminal record, even serving time! Can you just leave him?! Thereâs plenty of good men out there-even Bob Davis is more ideal!â
âCome on, Zoe,â Cordy snapped, a little speechless just then. âOffer proper advice. Donât even joke around about that.â âWhat, do you think I wouldnât know what Samâs like after growing up with John and the gang?! The man has so many women that heâd never settle for one!â
