Chapter 796
A Life Debt Repaid
Lucas was absolutely livid. âYou better explain yourself, Cordy! Why the hell did you take my hair-â
He looked up, only to find that Cordy was already gone.
F*ck!
Lucas could blow up from sheer rage-she left right after she was done flirting? Where was her sense of responsibility?!
He rushed straight into the bathroom, dousing himself with cold water to cool off.
On the other hand, Cordy wasnât actually as calm as she appeared as she left Lucasâs room.
In fact, she was worried she would lose control.
Now, the priority was to confirm Lucasâs identity with no uncertainty.
Dickyâs parental test failed before, but the boy claimed that the sample was the issue.
She didnât think much of it at the time, and was convinced that he was just being obsessed.
But at this very moment, she believed Dicky completely.
She returned to her hotel room to find Dicky on the couch, watching TV.
He beamed when he saw her return. â Welcome back, Mommy.â
Cordy stared at him, her fingers clenching on the strand of hair and asked,â Dicky, do you really think that Lucas is your daddy?â
âOf course! You finally believed it now, Mommy?â Dicky asked, beaming with excitement.
âI have a strand of his hair here. I want yours too for a parental test.â
âYou donât have to do it, I alreadyâ¦â Dicky suddenly trailed off.
He knows his mommy might not actually believe him, but she would have to if she did it herself.
As such, he promptly corrected himself. âOkay.â
While he spoke, he quickly pulled out a strand of his hair, worried that Cordy would change her mind.
Cordy took his hair and inhaled deeply before calling Sean. âSorry, I know youâre busy, but I need a favor.â
âTell me.â
âI need a parental test.â
âA parental test?â Sean sounded very much surprised. âYouâre not suspecting that Dicky isnât your son, are you? I mean, thereâs not much resemblance, butâ¦â
Still, Sean stopped himself when he noticed Cordyâs mood. He quickly told her, âIâm coming to your hotel in half an hour.â
âThank you.â
Cordyâs heart raced as she hung up.
In under half an hour, Sean arrived.
Cordy wasnât planning to bring Dicky along, and brought him to Lucasâs room.
He was surprised, even looking reluctant. âDonât think Iâd babysit for you just because Iâm into you. I have my principles tooâ¦â
âOkay. Letâs go, Dicky,â Cordy said, and started to lead Dicky away without another word.
âHold on, I wasnât finished!â Lucas said, quickly catching Dickyâs wrist. âI mean, you really should come back sooner. Children need to sleep early.â
Cordy grinned at him, leaving him blushing.
He had this feeling this was just the startâthat Cordy had already sunk her claws into him.
Dicky, who was next to them, was grinning too.
His daddy really was as stubborn as he was weak-the man didnât even last a second!
Later, Cordy got into Seanâs car with a somber look.
Sensing her foul mood, Sean quickly said, âLook, I was just kidding. Dicky does resemble you.â
âHow?â Cordy asked, keen on relaxing her mood as well.
âWhen you get angry.â
Cordy was speechless, and Sean chuckled. âThat said, why a parental test out of the blue? Couldâve done it earlier-l mean, did you buy it just because John told you heâs your son?â
However, Cordy knew all too well whether Dicky was her son, and didnât need anything to prove it.
What she needed to confirm was whether she had just found John again.
