John's blind date stared at him, unable to say a word for a long while.Eventually, she began, "I think we should just end it here. We're not right for each other—""I disagree," John said, cutting her short.The woman did a double take but quickly shook her head, remembering all the nonsense she had spouted in the washroom while Cordy was right beside her. "No, I must assure you that we're not…""You just want a good time, and the same goes for me," John said bluntly.The woman was left gaping at him.How could he tell? And here she thought her maidenly act was impeccable! Even if Cordy was going to tell him, she could not have done it so quickly!"You're still fooling around? At your age?!" she exclaimed in disbelief.John simply stared at her, speechless."Wait, I don't mean you can't," the woman quickly said. "I mean, shouldn't you be settling down by now?""I should.""And you're still coming on to me?""More like coming to you for help.""What?" The woman was left

Cordy was actually confident.Having built a partnership with Gareth Bryant, he naturally had to defer to her. As such, he was basically going through the motions when he showed up here.Moreover, she had looked into the competition as well, but the only side that might compete was Gareth, and no one else had any chance of winning.That was why her confidence showed during her presentation.Two hours later, after everyone presented their proposals, the results were announced on the spot.To no surprise, Cordy retained the best spot in KPW Shopping Center, extending the contract for ten years this time.That basically meant she did not have to worry about her flagship outlet in the immediate future.Still, John politely offered a handshake after agreeing to the partnership. "Congratulations, Ms. Sachs. Here's to a fruitful partnership."Cordy merely stared at his hand hesitantly and did not take it.John did not seem to feel embarrassed by that and simply lowered his hand.Nod

Cordy brought Richard along as she headed to Zoe and Jay's apartment right after she left work.Zoe was excited to see her. "Welcome, Cordy! Come in, Dicky—Yelena's waiting to play with you."Richard had not actually met Yelena on that many occasions, but it was clear that the little girl liked him.And in spite of Richard's haughty nature, he was surprisingly patient with Yelena.Blood relations were a funny thing, no?In fact, just as Cordy and Richard entered, Yelena already came and pulled Richard away."Isn't Quinn coming?" Cordy asked, since it was always the three of them whenever they gather."She's going to be gone for two weeks. She has a lawsuit to deal with," Zoe said regrettably.Cordy nodded, feeling the same way.The three of them had been too busy to gather lately."Where's Jay?" Cordy asked just then, since she only saw Clara working in the kitchen and greeted her."He'll probably be back soon," Zoe replied. As she spoke, the door opened.Cordy turned to

"Of course," Zoe replied.Wendy promptly opened her camera app and took a selfie with Zoe before suddenly calling out to Cordy too. "How about we take another one together?"Cordy was left staring at Wendy, wondering how carefree that woman could be."Come on," Wendy kept urging nonetheless.Cordy joined them in the end, since she did not want things to get awkward.However, after taking the selfie, Wendy was muttering, "Oh, it's not surprising that Dicky is that handsome—he really got some good genes from his parents. I wonder if Johnny and my kids would look that good.""Wait, you guys are getting married?" Zoe was a little agitated at the prospect."Not that soon—we just met a while ago," Wendy smiled, chagrined, though she soon added meekly, "But if Johnny proposes, I think I'll say yes…"As she spoke, she glanced at John, who did not answer directly and said instead, "Time to eat. Go wash your hands."Wendy stuck her tongue out at him. "You're coming with me."John did n

"Cordy?" Zoe had to call out to her several times before she came to her senses and realized that she had been spacing out."What's with you tonight?" Zoe asked, perplexed. "You're looking at Yelena one second, and then at John and Wendy the next.""Was I? I was just thinking, not really looking," Cordy replied half-heartedly."Then what were you thinking?" Zoe pressed relentlessly."I was just thinking… Yelena is really cute," Cordy hastily came up with an excuse, giving in to Zoe just then. "So you want a daughter too?" Zoe asked.Cordy frowned—so it was a trick question!"Can't I just like Yelena?" she snapped grumpily."I like you too, Godmother!" Yelena quickly exclaimed loudly. "Well, your daughter would definitely be very beautiful," Zoe pressed on nonetheless."I refuse," Cordy said flatly. "Dicky is enough.""You can do it," Richard suddenly said. "I want a younger sister too.""Me too!" Yelena promptly raised her little hand since Richard had spoken."Ask your

Before Cordy could speak, Zoe was already excited and asked, "Is John impotent?"Cordy was speechless.Did Zoe really just ask John's ex—right in front of John's current girlfriend—about how he was in bed?!She thought to herself then that Jay had really been pampering Zoe to no end."Shouldn't you ask Wendy about that instead?" she asked.Zoe came to her senses and turned toward Wendy."Of course we are compatible." Wendy smiled gingerly. "I mean… John is such a stud."Zoe was actually a little embarrassed just then.The young really did not watch their language these days, did they?She then turned to find Cordy looking perfectly calm."Sorry, I need the ladies' room." Wendy excused herself right then, worried that the topic was spiraling out of control.After she left, Zoe kept staring at Cordy.Cordy was speechless again. "What are you staring at me for?""No, I wasn't." Zoe denied it. "I just thought it's nice being young."Cordy knew that Zoe was deliberately messin

Tilting his little head just then, Richard asked, "Mommy, do you not like having Wendy around?""I'm fine with her," Cordy said generously. "Oh," Richard replied with a tinge of disappointment.Cordy did not dwell on it, simply dismissing it as John's issue that had nothing to do with her.-Saturday morning soon arrived, and Cordy only woke up when it was already 10 AM.She had been working late on Friday and came home so late it was long past midnight when she got into bed. She decided to sleep in, considering that she did not have work tomorrow. When she finally woke up, she stretched her back and headed downstairs in her pajamas, wondering if Richard had any arrangements for the day. She was still yawning just as she arrived downstairs, where she found Richard and John in the kitchen, with John cooking and Richard filming with his phone.Cordy was stunned for a while before remembering Richard's school project—the family vlog."You're up, Mommy!" Richard exclaimed as

"Okay."Cordy picked up her knife and fork and started eating slowly.She was going to argue but noticed upon a closer look that the food really were all her favorites. "You didn't have to make my favorites exclusively," she said, seemingly offhandedly. "I'm not picky with food…""I feel guilty imposing on you today, so take this as a token of gratitude."Cordy said nothing else at that and treated it as an actual polite gesture."By the way, didn't Wendy say she was coming? Why isn't she here?" Richard asked.Cordy looked up at Richard just then—her son really liked Wendy, did he not?"She always sleeps in. Leave her be—don't disturb her now," John said flatly.Cordy somehow thought she heard a tinge of tenderness in his tone."Okay." Richard nodded. "What about the afternoon?""That depends if she has other arrangements. She'll be here if there aren't any.""Okay."And with that, they finished brunch, with Richard and John conversing intermittently, while Cordy remained
