It took Cordy and Richard great effort to finally move John to a room.Just as they put him on the bed, Richard suddenly exclaimed, "Whoops.""What's wrong?" Cordy asked, seeing the anxiety on his face just then."I have to submit the vlog tomorrow, but it's already very late and I haven't edited anything." Richard looked very worried."You can go do it now," Cordy told him."But Daddy is drunk. Someone needs to take care of him," Richard said, clearly in a dilemma.However, he was also obviously staring at Cordy, clearly wanting her to help.Cordy sighed—she had to spoil her own son."Yeah, I'll take care of him.""Thanks, Mommy. You're the best!" Richard exclaimed with visible joy.But as Cordy watched him leave, she sighed, somehow feeling like she had fallen for a trap.Still, she got up and helped John out of his jacket and socks, after which she went to the washroom and wet a hot towel for him, wiping his cheek bit by bit while complaining to herself inwardly—who was J

John put an arm over Cordy's shoulder as she kept him standing, letting him press his entire body weight over her.They slowly headed downstairs and then out of the mansion, where her chauffeur sent him off.John did not even say goodbye after getting into the car and left just like that.Cordy heaved a long sigh in turn.Men!-After that night, Cordy did not meet John much, although he would occasionally text her out of politeness whenever he would take Richard to Levine Manor. Aside from that, they basically did not stay in touch.Still, on a certain weekend and Richard returned from Levine Manor, Richard mentioned offhandedly, "Daddy is going to marry Wendy."Cordy was just taking a sip of water and ended up spitting it all over Richard's face.As he gave her a wounded look, she quickly wiped him. "Sorry, I was just a little surprised… But they just started dating a while ago, didn't they?""Are you upset, Mommy?" Richard asked quietly."Nope.""Then why did you get s

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."

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 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?"
