John nodded. "I know. Zoe told me."Cordy said nothing else at that, and everyone else stayed silent.She left Levine Manor after lunch but told Richard to stay since she could tell that he really wanted to stay with John.But even as she stepped outside, a familiar voice called out to her from behind. "Cordy."Cordy's heart skipped a beat, and she pursed her lips and turned to find John standing there."Your phone," he said, holding it out to her.It turned out that she had left it on the couch."Thank you," she said as she took it, surprised that she would have left it in Levine Manor—she would never usually forget things.Even so, she had to admit that her emotions were affected when she saw John's face restored to how it was, no matter how hard she tried to ignore it."When's the wedding?" John asked."We haven't decided," Cordy said. "It'll be in a few months."John smiled faintly in turn. "Congratulations.""Thank you.""Do you need a ride?" John asked. "It's easy to

Richard watched as Cordy left, looking a little disappointed."I'm sorry, Daddy," he said guiltily. "I…""It's alright," John replied and patted Richard's head.John did not realize it, but Richard really grew up as if in an instant."I thought it's still possible for you and Mommy. I didn't think she'd be so angry," Richard explained."I know." John nodded.It's not all Richard's fault either, since John could have left if he insisted.In the end, it was John who wanted to see her—even for seconds.He had his own expectations, after all."It's late. You're still growing, so go to bed soon. I'll be going now.""Yeah." Richard nodded."Do you want to come over tomorrow?""I'm going to school tomorrow, and I'm used to staying here. But I'll visit if I'm free on weekends.""Anyway, just call me if you miss me.""Okay."John left. Richard thought about it, but he ultimately got up and headed to Cordy's room.He knocked politely, and Cordy opened the door. "Mommy," Richard

The wedding would be in two months.Zoe had a feeling she could not quite describe as she browsed the photos Cordy sent, especially since John was discussing rebuilding Levine Ventures with Jay in the house.She mused if she should show John the photos and actually make him give up.Judging from the current state of things, John really showed no intention of getting Cordy back. In fact, he had put on his workaholic form again and completely focused on work.She walked over and asked, "Want another coffee?"John nodded and gently pushed his cup to the side, letting her refill it without glancing her way.Zoe was speechless—she was supposed to be his elder, his aunt, and he did not even thank her.However, she seemed used to it and refilled both John and Jay's cups.Still, she had to admit that men were so good looking when they were working seriously. They were both seated at the table in front of the glass wall, and it was honestly a feast for the eyes as the sun illuminated

Jay stopped her right then, "Zoe."Zoe sighed heavily but snapped in disappointment at John regardless, "Now you'll be forever alone!"And with that, she stormed off.John finally turned away from the laptop screen, whipping out a cigarette, thinking about it and asked, "Can I?""Do it on the balcony," Jay said. "Yelena doesn't like the smell of tobacco whenever she's home."John nodded and headed there, and Jay went with him.The sun was just right today, but Jay had the feeling that even a warmer sun would not melt the coldness in John's heart."Why don't you do something?" he asked eventually. "There won't be a chance only if you don't fight for it, but there will be if you do.""It won't work," John said, breathing out a puff of smoke. "No one can change Cordy's mind once she's made her decision."John nodded, since he knew that much about Cordy.-News about Cordy's wedding started circulating in two months, and their wedding photos were posted online soon after.There

Randy actually had a hunch, but there was no way he could hide it from John.He certainly knew how things were between his boss and his lady… or Ms. Sachs now, given current circumstances.However, John was just gone for too long, and it was perfectly reasonable that Cordy had found someone new.He looked on, watching as John opened the envelope anyway.The wedding invitation was a fair whiteness, with a wedding photo of Cordy and Patrick attached.They looked sweet and happy—a good match for one another.John stared at the invitation for a long time, which only stated Patrick's name without Cordy's.The wedding would take place at noon on the eighteenth of May."Sir?" Randy called out to him again, concerned that he would be staring at the invitation for an entire night—he would rather the man just go home and rest."Is that the weekend?" John asked, lowering the invitation and looking normal again."Yeah. It's a Saturday.""Okay. Remember not to arrange any work for that d

Zoe gave him the address, so John drove over to pick her up.There were indeed not many women who could make John put away his work.When he reached the destination, he called Zoe. "Come out. I'm waiting for you at the entrance." Zoe answered in a drunk manner, "Come in. I can't walk." "Don't push your luck!" "Room 808." She abruptly hung up the call.John took a deep breath. He would have pressed the gas pedal and left immediately if it were not for Jay's sake. He then got out of the car and walked into the private room. The door was pushed open, and he thought that it would be smoky and filled with loud music. Based on Zoe's former character, all people in there would be drunk. However, it was strangely quiet, with only three people staying together to drink wine. There was no music in the private room, and it was brightly lit. So, he saw Cordy drinking and chatting with Zoe and Quinn the minute he entered the room. His appearance was quite abrupt, and while he w

He loved her to the core. Could he watch her throw herself into another man's arms?John did not want to talk much with Zoe. "Are you going or not?" "Are you leaving?" Zoe appeared disappointed. "I have something else to do." "Have some wine." Zoe grabbed his clothes and refused to let go. "Let's have a drink since you're here!" John glared at Zoe. "It's been a long time since we last had a drink. You finally came back alive. Just do me the favor." Zoe picked up a glass of wine and shoved it into John's hands. John's face turned gloomy. "Just sit for a while if you're free," Cordy chimed in. "After all, we'll go back in a while because we need to wake up early tomorrow." John's heart wavered. He pursed his lips and answered, "Hmm." "Tsk!" Zoe was full of scorn. "It's useless no matter how much I say. Just one word from Cordy is enough to persuade you!" "Isn't that what you wish for?" Quinn inevitably criticized her. Zoe thought for a while. "That seems to be the

John was stunned, struck dumb on the spot and not accepting the glass of water for a long time.Cordy originally thought that it was a very normal action. It was her bachelorette party that night, and since John was there to drink with them, she should treat him politely. However, John's current action made her feel a bit awkward. She was about to put it down and go to ask Zoe and Quinn to leave when John accepted it. "Thank you." "You're welcome." John extended his hand to accept the glass of water, and surprisingly, he touched Cordy's hand by accident. Cordy behaved naturally and let go of the glass.On the other hand, John retrieved his hand as if he was frightened. The two of them let go of the glass at the same time, and all the water in the glass splashed on John's pants. Clang! The glass fell to the floor and was smashed into pieces, and they were struck dumb for half a second. "Are you okay? Are you hurt?" Cordy naturally took out a napkin to wipe his pants
