Chapter 1139

Richard watched as Cordy left, looking a little disappointed.

"I'm sorry, Daddy," he said guiltily. "I..."

"It's alright," John replied and patted Richard's head.

John did not realize it, but Richard really grew up as if in an instant.

"I thought it's still possible for you and Mommy. I didn't think she'd be so angry," Richard explained.

"I know." John nodded.

It's not all Richard's fault either, since John could have left if he insisted.

In the end, it was John who wanted to see her-even for seconds.

He had his own expectations, after all.

"It's late. You're still growing, so go to bed soon. I'll be going now."

"Yeah." Richard nodded.

"Do you want to come over tomorrow?"

"I'm going to school tomorrow, and I'm used to staying here. But I'll visit if I'm free on weekends."

"Anyway, just call me if you miss me."

"Okay.".xo

John left—Richard thought about it, but he ultimately got up and headed to Cordy's room.

He knocked politely, and Cordy opened the door.

"Mommy," Richard said, utterly apologetic. "I'm sorry-l didn't think asking Daddy to stay would upset

you so much."

"It's not your fault."

"No, I insisted that he stay," Richard explained in agitation." He was going to leave after bringing me

home, but I told him no. He was going to call you after we left Levine Manor, but I didn't let him. It's

really all my fault."

Cordy naturally felt pained to see Richard being so guilty, though in reality, she was not snapping at

him.

She knew very well that Richard would never have been able to make John stay if John refused to.

But when she thought about it, John was Richard's biological father, and they had been years apart. It

was perfectly reasonable if John wanted to hang out with Richard.

If anything, her tantrum was out of line.

Sighing, she said, "I was not being calm. I... I just didn't want you to try to get us together again. I'm

going to marry

Patrick, and that's not going to change. I don't want to disappoint you."

"No." Richard quickly shook his head. "I'll admit that I

wanted you to be with Daddy, and I always thought that it was a shame to leave things the way it was...

but Daddy told me and things are going well between you and Patrick, and I shouldn't mess with your

happiness."

Cordy pursed her lips and said nothing.

"I'm sorry, Mommy." Richard apologized again.

"I'm really not upset, and I promise I won't lose it in front of you and Daddy from now on."

"Okay." Richard nodded, but soon remembered something." By the way, Daddy made mushroom soup.

Have you had dinner? Would you like some?"

Cordy raised a brow.

"I mean... Daddy made it for you, but he told me not to tell," Richard said seriously. "But I think you can

be friends even if you're not married... that's not a problem, right?"

Cordy's heart skipped a beat, realizing for a second that she was less rational than a ten-year-old.

"Yeah, I'll have some. I didn't have dinner."

"Okay." Richard happily nodded repeatedly. "I'll get you a bowl. You should come downstairs too."

"Okay."

As Richard left cheerfully, Cordy took a deep breath.

Ultimately, John was Richard's father-there was no way they would really stay out of touch.

After that, Cordy left for Rocktown to take wedding photos with Patrick and decided on the eighteenth

of May for their wedding day.
