A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 1248
Zoe was skipping around, reveling in bliss.She had certainly been misbehaving today, but Jay had to admit that everything was worth it just to see the smile on her face.As Zoe kept drinking with one guest after the other with a silly happy grin that seemed to broaden constantly, Jay sat nearby with a faint smile."Drink up! Wish me well…" Zoe poured herself a glass full but trailed off when she saw the person in front of her.After all, it was Nancy Levine.She was still here? It was already very late—she always slept early to maintain her healthy appearance, no?Still, Zoe pursed her lips and told herself to get serious before holding up her glass. "Cheers, sister."Nancy was already scowling, and she scowled even harder after Zoe addressed her as 'sister'."That's our relationship now," Zoe muttered. She was not messing around.Nancy kept scowling. "How unseemly it is for a lady to go around drinking.""You told me that life should be enjoyed as much as possible, no? You

Nancy was left staring at Zoe. Was she lecturing her?!What gave her the right?!How was it Zoe's business how she raised her daughter?!"Of course, it's just a suggestion." Zoe shrugged. "What you do with Cora is all your business."Nancy had to stop herself from saying what was on the tip of her tongue, though she suddenly felt as if Zoe was taking her for a ride."Alright, I'm going over there. My friends are waiting for me," Zoe said, twirling her wine glass. "Enjoy the party, sister."And with that, she left.Nancy inhaled deeply in turn, feeling like she could get a heart attack every time Zoe called her 'sister'... and she had to do it so naturally!"Mom, what were you talking with Zoe about?" Cora asked, walking up to her just then."Nothing." Nancy was not in the mood to tell.Cora did not ask in turn. After all, there was nothing she could do about Zoe when Zoe was so thick-skinned, and right now, she was more concerned about her relationship with Bob and was not in

Cordy seemed to freeze right then, and John quickly let go of her hand. He took her hand as if it was only natural, and it never crossed his mind to wonder if Cordy liked it."I'm sorry, I…"He paused, since Cordy took his hand on her own and said, "Let's go."John nodded, clearly grinning from ear-to-ear.Still, Cordy found it a little funny as she got in John's bridal car, since she was not in it when she came.It was a little quiet, with neither of them speaking.Cordy had the nagging feeling that John was a little nervous too, but about what?Her heart soon skipped a beat as she remembered their wedding night… She pursed her lips, her heart racing unwittingly."Where's Dicky?" she asked, trying to hide her nerves. "I had Winston take him home," John replied. "He's still a kid. He shouldn't be staying up late.""Yeah." Cordy nodded before asking, "Are we going to Levine Manor?""Nope. I've prepared a house for us," John said. Cordy pursed her lips—that meant they wou

As Cordy stepped into the mansion and reached the edge, she turned to find countless myriad colored lights turning on in an instant, as if all the stars from the skies were falling down.She was certainly surprised, because it was a sight more astounding than those lights at the island they stayed at. She wondered how much time John spent preparing the surprise… and was it really for her and not Wendy?If she never said yes today, all his preparations would have gone to waste, no?Cordy looked at John then, and followed his gaze to see the huge LED screen in the garden, which suddenly flashed into life with photos of her… since her childhood.Cordy was surprised—how did he get those?! She had basically lost them!John seemed to read the question in her mind and said, "I met your father."Cordy pursed her lips."I know you'd never forgive him, which was why I did not invite him to our wedding," John continued. "However, I managed to get many of your photos from Sachs Mansion, a

"It's alright." John smiled. "Just having her near is fine."Cordy looked on, watching him smile with such tenderness and contentment…She could hardly describe how she felt just then.It turned out that John loved her with all his heart, while she thought he was dating Wendy.The scene then changed to Richard, John, and Wendy discussing how to take a family photo.They talked for a while until Cordy arrived, and they took the family with just Cordy, John, and Richard.She could not help glancing at John, noticing that he was nervously raising his hand and lowering it repeatedly, refraining from putting it on her shoulder.The scene changed again to the afternoon when John was baking a cake.Richard was hurrying him, saying, "Mommy's coming downstairs. Wendy, get clingy with Daddy."Then, as Wendy snuggled up against John as he worked, Cordy remembered that it was exactly what she saw when she arrived at the kitchen at the time.So it was all just an act.As she watched the

Cordy stared at the fireworks that seemed to blanket the skies and John's bewitching face beneath, her emotions ruffled…He really was in love with her and prepared so much for her.Her eyes welled up with tears—she thought she would never feel touched like this ever again. John was looking at her dewy eyes in turn.As they held each other gaze lovingly, all the ugliness, misunderstandings and repressed grievances seemed to fade.In fact, the world seemed to vanish as well, as they only had eyes for each other.John leaned his face toward her just then while she blinked before closing her eyes.As he gently kissed her lips, their hearts seemed to be awash with warmth.Cordy could not help clenching her knuckles as John held her lips, allowing him more.Hence, while it was a gentle brush at first, tongue was soon involved, and they started panting.He then scooped her up in his arms, while she wrapped her arms around his neck by instinct.They were very close, their breathin

John returned to their room after finishing his bath and saw that Cordy was not done with hers, just as he had expected.He did not hurry her and sat against the headboard instead, scrolling aimlessly through his phone as he waited for Cordy.He was clearly distracted, tensing up whenever he sensed movement from the bathroom.However, it was until after over ten minutes that Cordy finally opened the bathroom door, dressed in a pink bathrobe while having her wet hair wrapped in a towel, clearly having washed it.The bathrobe was a couple's set with the other being blue. John could not wear it since it was already in the bathroom after Cordy got in, so he wore a white one that was kept next door.He stared at Cordy, whose cheeks were still flushed after her bath, and her skin crystal fair under the lights.John could not help licking his dry lips—Cordy looked really appetizing at that very moment.Still, he did not give in to excitement and jump on her right away—instead, he walke

Cordy actually felt guilty.She and John were sleeping in the same bed on their wedding night but were doing nothing at all.She had no intention of shirking her spousal obligation since she decided to marry John.To her, marriage was no child's play, and it should be treated solemnly.Even so, what happened tonight was definitely unexpected, and Cordy felt even more guilty when she saw the box of condoms in the bedside drawer.John had really prepared for everything.In fact, that was not all—he even prepared underwear and sanitary pads for her, so there was nothing to worry about despite the surprise.John probably just did not expect that she would need the pads tonight.In fact, Cordy had trouble sleeping the whole night, tossing and turning in bed, probably because she was not used to sleeping in a new place.As for the man beside her, he did not sleep at all.They were still asleep late into the morning because of that until John's phone rang.He picked it up.
