Cordy raised a brow. "Tonight? Not the weekend?""You're the boss," Zoe told her. "You have a say on your own work hours."Cordy sighed, but it had been a while since Zoe asked her out like this. "Why tonight? It seems unprecedented.""Jay left on a business trip," Zoe exclaimed excitedly.Cordy was speechless. "You're not afraid of upsetting him, huh?""He won't be upset if it's you," Zoe quickly said. "And Quinn missed out on that dinner before, so she can make up for it now." "Fine, but I might be late. I'm taking stock of the share markets in the afternoon, so that might take a while.""It's no issue," Zoe said generously. "We'll wait.""Yeah." Cordy put down her phone, rubbing her temples wearily just then.She had been burning out a little from work lately, so it was time she relaxed. Hence, Cordy kept the meetings for the day short and headed straight to the destination Zoe told her about after work.It was the same old—a private room for just the three of them, a

Cordy simply stood there, watching them kiss for a long while.Her legs were starting to feel sore when those two finally pulled away, but they were obviously reluctant to stop.When Wendy finally pulled away from the man's embrace, she took him by the hand and started to pull him along… until she turned and found Cordy standing there."Woah!" she exclaimed, clearly shocked to the core while Cordy stared at her calmly.The man with her was startled too and could not help asking, "What's wrong, baby?""N-Nothing," Wendy stammered guiltily.The man then glanced between her and Cordy. "Who is she? Friend of yours?""Uh, hmm…" Wendy stammered for a while and finally said, "Can you wait for me over there? I'll come back to you later…""I thought we're heading straight to a hotel, babe," the man chuckled, even nuzzling against her. "I can't wait already."Wendy appeared even more embarrassed at that and pushed the man away, "Come on, just go. Be a good boy now.""Okay, I'll wait."

In the past, Cordy would not have hesitated to tell John.However, considering that Richard told her that John was going to propose to Wendy, she could guess how much John loved Wendy.Could John really take the blow if she exposed Wendy's true nature? Most importantly, Wendy promised to change.As Cordy remained silent for a while, Wendy quickly said, "Look, Cordy, I'll go straight home right now. No more nightclubs, okay? Just don't tell John, I'm begging you…"Cordy gave in then. "This can only happen once.""Oh! Thank you, Cordy! I'll go home right now!" Wendy's misery turned into a smile right then. "See you!"Cordy watched as Wendy hurried away and sighed heavily, wondering how John fell for her…Nonetheless, she returned to the private room after going to the washroom, where Zoe was still drinking with Quinn.And once Cordy made it back, they promptly dragged her along and made her drink.After a while, Zoe asked a little unhappily, "Why do you look so distracted, Cor

Wendy called Cordy the next morning.However, after Cordy got home, she kept waking up in her sleep, since all she could think about was Wendy cheating on John with another man…Naturally, her temper flared as soon as she saw Wendy's call, which was why she snapped a little loudly at Wendy, "Wendy, did you forget your own promise last night?!""I can explain, Cordy," Wendy quickly said. "I was just a little tipsy last night, so I was afraid that John would get upset with me if I went to his place. I headed to my parents' home instead, but I really did not do anything wrong. You have to trust me.""Really? And why should I trust you?" Cordy sneered."I…" Wendy tried off, unsure how to explain herself. However, after a moment of silence, she suddenly asked, "Cordy, are you still in love with Johnny?""What?!" Cordy bellowed, clearly incensed by that response.She had always been calm—in fact, she was calm when she caught Wendy being up to something so outrageous just last night.

John sounded even more perplexed. "What about her?""You're going to propose, right?" Cordy asked, doing her best to stay calm."Oh…" John chuckled. "Dicky told you, huh?""Yeah.""Well, I was just planning that, since I'm not exactly young," John admitted. "I've asked Dicky, and he agreed that Wendy suits me, so I plan to go through with it."Somehow, those words stung Cordy's ears. "You really love her, don't you?" she asked."What?" John asked a little shrilly, probably shocked that Cordy would ask something like that.Nonetheless, Cordy repeated herself slowly and clearly, "You really love Wendy, don't you?""Well, not that much. I just think she's a good fit for me," John explained calmly. "At my age, I just want to find someone to settle down with.""She's hardly the person for that," Cordy said solemnly."Why?" John was confused. "Because she's too young?""That's one of the reasons," Cordy said, no longer intending to hide it. "The other is that she misbehaves.""

John asked Cordy just then, "Is there some misunderstanding between you and Wendy? Should we meet up to clear the air?""No, there's no misunderstanding," Cordy said resolutely. "It's your own issue since you believe you know what Wendy is like. I was just giving you a head's up out of kindness.""Okay," John replied and said nothing else.Cordy hung up right then, fuming.He made it sound as if she was trying to drive a wedge in his relationship and took no notice of her kindness.She took a deep breath and told herself that it was their business, and she should not have meddled at all.There was no question that she was embarrassing herself too.That was when Cordy's phone rang.She glanced at the caller, calmed herself down, and answered. "Zoe.""Bad day, huh?" Zoe asked."Nope." Cordy denied it right away."I can tell from your tone right now, y'know," Zoe said confidently.Cordy pursed her lips—in the end, there was just no deceiving besties, was there?"What is it?"

"Yeah." Cordy agreed. "Serves him right.""And that means you can just leave him be." Zoe gave her verdict then.Cordy was naturally taken aback. "What?!""I said, just leave him be," Zoe said very calmly. "It's his own business if he's being deceived by a woman, and he refused to listen when you told him. What more can you do?"However, that did not sit right with Cordy at all!It was fine if Cordy herself did not keep trying to reason with John, since he refused to listen when she did. Moreover, it was inappropriate considering the complicated relationship between them.But Zoe was different—she was supposed to be John's relative, and she was just going to do nothing while John was being deceived by a woman?"Shouldn't you at least tell him?" Cordy could not help asking."Why should I? It's everything I ever dreamed of," Zoe said very calmly before going on a rant with rising indignation. "It's his own fault for having a change of heart so quickly, falling for another woman a

Richard called out to her just then. "Mommy?"Cordy came to her senses and said evenly, "It's your daddy's decision. You should respect it.""Okay," Richard replied before remembering something. "What present do you think I should get for their wedding?""Nothing. Just give them your blessing," Cordy said flatly."But I really want to give them a present," Richard said seriously.Cordy pursed her lips but remained silent.She had no idea what she should suggest, and given how she felt about the wedding… Whatever. That was their business.-Cordy returned to her room after dinner, and she had just gotten into bed to sleep when Zoe called."Cordy, did you know that John is going to marry Wendy?!""I know," Cordy replied nonchalantly."It's on the eighteenth of next month. Just twenty-five days from now," Zoe said."Yeah.""And… you're not interested?""Should I be?" Cordy asked in return, amused.If John believed his decision to be right, then it must be—she would not gi
