Meanwhile, Cordy made her way toward Jay and sat with him, since she thought better of him in comparison to the others.Jay greeted her in turn, and they both made small talk.When his phone rang and he got to his feet, Cordy quickly moved to help him."I'm alright, thanks." Jay turned her down politely, and limped on his crutch to another corner.Although his life was saved thanks to the treatment abroad, his right leg was still crippled after that accident. Though it was fortunate that no limbs needed to be amputated, he was still denied a normal life.He returned to Cordy after answering his call, and she did not ask who it was—they were not that close. Still, Jay asked casually, "Do you usually watch variety shows?""Why?" Cordy asked in surprise. "I've just received a notice that North City Channel is planning to organize this variety show called Actors on Set. Actors and actresses would be invited, and I was invited as a judge too—their production team just called, bu

Cordy could not help asking Jay just then, "Have you thought about looking for Zoe?"Jay shook his head.After Zoe left all those years ago, Cordy actually asked Jay what on earth was happening between him, Zoe, and Bob Davis—and why Zoe would break up with Bob.Jay told her the truth then: Bob's mother had gone to Zoe, after which Zoe asked Jay to stage an act with her and break up with Bob.That begged the question: why did Jay not stay with Zoe after she broke up with Bob?Jay stayed silent, but he did not answer that question even now or ever go to Zoe.Cordy actually had the feeling that Jay was still in love with Zoe. However, he also knew that he would never get Zoe back because she had really given up on him, and he therefore simply allowed her to leave.Or maybe he was just calling it quits because of his disability?!"Zoe has found her own happiness," Jay said evenly then, as if he utterly and genuinely got over her.Cordy nodded in silence—one could also tell if a r

Richard asked curiously from the backseat, "Mommy? Who was that?""Nobody important," Cordy replied flatly."But he just said that you're the only person he knows in North City.""Impossible." Cordy was utterly skeptical.How was he able to stay in North City for a whole week if that was the case?"I don't think he's lying," Richard said seriously then.Cordy frowned slightly in turn—her son usually never pried into other people's affairs.In fact, over the last three years, she slowly noticed that Richard's personality was different from what she previously imagined. While he might be sweet, energetic, talkative, and adorable when around her, he was indifferent toward people who were not close to him.Whenever she sent Richard to school herself, she would notice many girls sliding peeks of infatuation at him, but they would never get close.Later on, she spoke to a class teacher about it, and only then did she find out that Richard was dubbed the Ice Prince, since he basicall

The man's face was swollen like a pig's—it was quite hilarious. Cordy had to restrain herself from laughing out loud, and she turned back to Lucas.That minor bruising on his face was really nothing in comparison."I'm not." Cordy denied it then."Whatever. He's either apologizing to me, or I'm suing!""What I did was legal self-defense," Lucas retorted slowly and sharpply."Self-defense?! When you left me like this?!" The man became even more agitated, and the officer nearby had to bark, "Keep it down!"The man calmed down a little but still growled indignantly, "How is it self-defense if I ended up like this?""It's self-defense even if the other guy is dead," Lucas said coolly."S-See?! Officer, he wants to kill me! Why should I settle?!" The man appeared relentless."Enough!" The officer barked at the man impatiently before turning toward Cordy. "Your friend got drunk and got involved in a fistfight at the bar, and he refused to apologize or pay compensation. If this c

Lucas was left staring at Cordy—was she some sort of demon of logic?"You have five minutes to consider. Either do it my way—pay him off to settle the issue and I will post bail, or do it your way—file a lawsuit to maintain your innocence. In the case of the latter, I'll leave right now." Cordy certainly did not want to waste time.Lucas was in turn left pursuing his lips, obviously reluctantly to go with Cordy's solution.However, he had the misfortune of spending enough time with Cordy to know that she walked the talk—and he did not want to stay the night at the precinct.With that, he did not hesitate further and growled through his teeth, "I'll pay."Cordy was not at all surprised in turn, since the smart ones would always pick this option—for them, any amount of money was spare change, whereas time was far more precious."Don't say a word later. I'll handle it for you," Cordy added as a condition.Lucas nodded, deciding to fully cooperate just then.As Cordy and Lucas re

The man became agitated right then. "Are you kidding me?! He hit me, but I should apologize?! You were just messing with me, weren't you?!Cordy threatened him in turn, "I was very clear. I'm compensating you for the injury my friend inflicted, but you were in the wrong because you provoked him first. I won't pay you if you don't apologize, and I'm not afraid of a lawsuit either—there are plenty of others present to testify if you struck first or if my friend did. And I'm sure there would be cameras there as well!"The man was left staring at her, stunned.He never expected that despite her beauty and delicate appearance, she was actually this tough!He glanced at the police officers nearby, but they were not saying anything.Their objective was simple—to have the matter resolved, and that would be one less issue for them."I'm counting to three. It's a lawsuit if you still refuse to apologize," Cordy said, staring sharply at the man. "One. Two…"Alright, I'll apologize," the ma

Cordy asked, "Didn't I come anyway?""Which is why I'm surprised," Lucas admitted—he really did not hold out much hope in Cordy, and she was just his last resort.He was certainly surprised that she really came, and he knew her enough to expect her laughing at him and not actually care what happened to him.Maybe she actually was interested in him?!She kept saying otherwise, but felt the complete opposite inside…Cordy frowned right then, noticing something weird about the look on his face. "What are you thinking right now?""Nothing." Lucas perished the thought. "I'll just be lodging for the night and will leave tomorrow once my luggage has been found.""What if it isn't found?""Then I'll head to the embassy to get my passport replaced without bothering you!" Lucas' restraint lasted for just a couple seconds before he started losing it again."Just one night," Cordy said reluctantly."Don't worry—I won't stay even if you asked me to once I get my passport," Lucas said. "I'

Even Cordy was really convinced that the man was not his daddy!Nonetheless, Richard bit his little lip, and tamely returned to his seat, intent on quietly observing how things turned out.Meanwhile, Cordy drove back to the mansion. It had been a long night, and it was past 11 PM when they reached home.She ignored Lucas even as he followed them, walking as she told Richard, "You should be sleeping early while you're still going through puberty, so do that right after you take a shower and remember to have a glass of warm milk before you do. I'll have Winston send it to your room later.""Okay." Richard nodded while sneaking another peek at Lucas.What happened to his daddy's face? Was there some sort of accident?"It's the weekend tomorrow, and the horse riding lesson is at 10 AM," Cordy continued. "You don't have to wake up early for your homework either—sleep in since you're sleeping late tonight. I'll have Winston wake you when the time comes.""Okay." "Is there anything
