All Chapters of A Life Debt Repaid: Chapter 121 - Chapter 130

Zoe had drunk too much with Bob just now, and she was clearly getting sick.If she had continued, she would be floored soon enough."Are you alright?" Cordy asked Zoe, passing Zoe a glass of water. "Don't chug too much—it's bad for the stomach.""Thank you," Zoe replied as she took the glass, saying emotionally and earnestly, "I love you, Cordy."As Cordy felt her heart skip a beat, Zoe continued, "You remember Quinn, don't you?""Yes. We all had dinner together," Cordy replied. "That my bestie, bar none," Zoe told Cordy. "Though I must announce now that I have another bestie."Cordy pursed her lips, feeling a little helpless just then. She genuinely felt that Zoe liked her, and she was left once again in a dilemma by Zoe's sincerity.Cordy turned to look at John, who was drinking with the others, and decided that she would say what she had to say tonight.-Things were rowdy around the table after they finished dinner, and Bob insisted that they go to a karaoke bar.They

Even so, John simply had no idea what his mistake was! Nonetheless, Cordy said plainly, "You're dating Zoe, aren't you?" It was obvious John would keep bothering her if she was not direct.And she refused to be direct before because adults did not have to go that far to embarrass each other, and they were not enemies either.But after all her rejections failed, she decided to just be direct. John was left blinking, and there was a flash of surprise in his eyes.Since he was silent from shock, Cordy continued, "I've known Zoe long enough to tell that she's a good person—a little bold at times, but she's kind and naive. I don't know why you're dating her, and it could well be a tit for tat and not meant to last, but I really feel that Zoe deserves better treatment. If you really want a family and a mother for Dicky, she's not a bad choice.""She certainly isn't," John said in agreement.Cordy felt that pain in her chest again but she ignored it, as she accepted that John was s

Even as Cordy looked utterly guilty, John was studying her seriously as he asked, "I'm curious. What made you think that I was dating Zoe, Ms. Sachs?"Still, his brow was relaxed, showing his good mood.Cordy bit her lip, but she knew that John was going to be ruthless if she told him that Kyle Jessop had misled her."Supposing that I were dating Zoe, it's even more curious that you'd find it logical that I would have you two appear in the same place," John continued, putting weight behind every word. "How irresponsible do you think I am toward a relationship that I could do something like that?!"Cordy could not say anything against that.She definitely should have suspected something, especially with her calmness and wit. But for some reason, she presumed that John and Zoe were really dating without questioning it.Now that she understood that, she realized that she was definitely being foolish—could she have been infected by Kyle's stupidity? Or perhaps… Even as that thoug

Presuming that Jay had left as well, Zoe picked up the handbag she left on the couch and prepared to leave."Blargh!"That was when she heard retching from the washroom of the private room.Zoe hesitated for a moment, but she eventually entered to find Jay crouching in front of the toilet, puking his guts in it.Zoe pursed her lips—Jay had always been a light drinker, but he was surprisingly enthusiastic today. Did he not have to work tomorrow?She was just smart enough to apply for leave tomorrow, since she knew she was definitely going to be drinking tonight.Meanwhile, Jay was actually starting to vomit bile even as he questioned why people love alcohol.He would never touch it unless absolutely necessary!Even as he pushed himself off the floor, his legs must have gotten numb from crouching too long, and he started to teeter over to the side…But just before he fell, a familiar figure suddenly caught him. And that dainty figure seemed to be exerting every bit of streng

Cordy turned and keyed in her door passcode, then entered after the door opened.Even so, the man who agreed to leave just now remained standing outside."It's late. You should go," she urged him again."Okay," John replied—yet another quick answer. But his body was honest and remained still.Cordy gritted her teeth and turned to shut the door before turning on the door monitor.John was still standing there.Speechless, she opened the door again right then and asked, "Weren't you going to leave?""I just remembered something…" he said. "You haven't given me anything for my birthday."Cordy pursed her lips—she thought that they were parting ways tonight! Giving him anything would only have given him hope, and her more hassle."Anything would do," John said with a serious look, obviously hinting at something.Cordy sighed, having this feeling that she would not get him to leave if she did not satisfy him.Heaving a deep sigh, she resigned herself and walked up to him, stood
