Cordy coughed for a long while before she caught her breath, while Nana quickly explained, "I'm sorry, but I was just curious… I don't have many friends because of my health, and I'd like to know more about relationships between men and women. It's just—I think my relationship with Lucas is different from others.""It's fine. I just accidentally choked, it's nothing," Cordy told her."Then… Can I ask you about you and your boyfriend?" Nana asked."What do you want to ask?""Like… Have you had sex before?" Nana was embarrassed yet stubborn."No… Not yet.""But why?" Nana gasped in surprise. "I thought that's only me and Lucas… I googled about it, and it says that couples tend to do it after confirming their relationship, but Lucas seemed to have no intention of doing it. That's why I thought we had relationship issues, so I'm surprised you're the same.""I… I had some bad experiences before, and we just confirmed our relationship, so it's not time for us yet." Cordy came up with

Finally having had enough, Cordy yelled back at Lucas, "Did I ask you for anything?! Who told you to come?! I was sleeping here just fine, and I didn't need you to wake me, let alone yell at me! Even if I'm being negligent to my son, that's my own business. What right do you have to care?! You're not his father!""Cordy Sachs!" Lucas snarled through his teeth.Nonetheless, Cordy continued, "Don't stand there acting like you're being noble when you're just going to emotionally blackmail me! Who do you think you are?! Even if I die here, it has nothing to do with you! What you did was a violation of my personal privacy, and I can sue you for it!"Lucas was left absolutely livid, and glaring at Cordy with red eyes while feeling the impulse to strangle her for an instant. He had no idea why he would overreact to her. All he knew was that when he passed by, an unknown sense of terror struck him when he saw that her blood was being drained into the IV bag. He did not hesitate in that in

Nana continued, "I'm sorry, Cordy, I really don't want to ask this of you, but I'm so afraid of losing Lucas. Could you at least promise me to keep your distance as long as it's not about business?""I already have. I've never tried to get near him, and I'm not interested in him…"Cordy trailed off as she stared at Nana's hopeful yet miserable look, and she said, "Alright, I promise."Nana's tearful expression turned to a smile right then, and she exclaimed excitedly, "Thank you, Cordy! I knew you were a good person!"Cordy thought she was far from it—she certainly did not think Nana's overly humble stance in her relationship deserved pity.She just did not want to waste her time staying involved with them and then cause trouble for herself because of them.In fact, she would have done it whether she agreed to it—Lucas was just that incompatible with her. Nana just could not bring herself to buy that reality and simply wanted a definitive answer from Cordy.Cordy in turn decided

Once everyone was given their respective scripts, they each sat in a corner to study their assigned roles, after which they would present their own interpretations to Jay.Zoe sat at the furthest corner, studying her script seriously, but she was also starting to nod off as she did.She swore not to binge on alcohol ever again even if it killed her.To think that she actually brought Cordy and Quinn to the graveyard last night… Was there anything she was not capable of while drunk?!Even as she did her best to stay awake, Candice approached her. "Zoe."She would be in the same group for the next stage, and they had grown closer since they worked together on the last round.It was also common knowledge that every contestant should stay in cliques, even if it was just for appearances, despite the competitive nature of his variety show.Zoe never did, however, because she had not met the rest for that long, and none of the others were willing to hang out with her. Some were even ke

Hailey also realized that she had been overreaching—this was Jay's group, and she had no cause to throw her weight around.Hailey could not help snapping at Zoe given how she was behaving and was surprised that Jay took exception.As such, Hailey came up with an excuse to leave.On the other hand, it was still awkward for Zoe, since Jay did hang her out to dry.He never snapped at people, but his impassive expression could leave one feeling nonexistent.Soon, the first rehearsal was over.Jay did not say much and dismissed everyone for a break before turning toward Zoe. "Come with me."Everyone was throwing Zoe looks of pity right then, and she certainly pitied herself as well.But there was no one out there to save her!She steeled herself as she followed Jay into his VIP lounge, hanging her head as she stood there respectfully like a kid caught doing something naughty.She did not mind appearing pitiful if that could buy her a little sympathy from Jay—when one lived long en
