A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 80

Cordy had just sent her text when a reply came almost instantly.

[Nope.]

Cordy could not help smiling.

It was as if John had been waiting for her text, and she could almost imagine the look on his face.

While her heart was not sent fluttering, her lips were still curling upward from habit.

She replied: [It’s late, and you’re a patient. Sleep early, wake up early.]

Once she was done, she called Walter to take her to the hospital.

She had no idea when it started, but she was not that stiff toward him now.

In the car, she was staring at the phone which never jingled.

He could really be petty sometimes.

After she arrived at the hospital, Cordy tried to be as quiet as she could as she entered John’s ward.

If he was obedient enough and fell asleep, she would rather not disturb him.

However, there was no one in the hospital bed within that dark bedroom.

Cordy was frowning when she suddenly heard movement from the bathroom, and she turned toward it just as the door suddenly swung open.

She was left staring at the man who was dripping wet stepping outside.

He was topless, his hair was drenched, and he only had a white towel around his waist that barely covered anything.

Cordy’s whole body stiffened.

She never expected to see John like this…
