Chapter 243

Even after Cordy said that, silence remained in the car. John acted as if he hadn't heard any of Cordy’s words. He kept his eyes firmly on the road, not looking away.

Cordy shoved down the turbulent emotions swirling angrily inside her. As calmly as she could, she continued, "I have an important meeting early tomorrow morning, and it's already very late right now.'

Cordy unbuckled her seat belt but remained seated. She turned to John and said, "Go ahead."
