A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 153

Looking up at Cordy just then, Zoe asked, “You must be curious as to how John ended up bringing Dicky home, aren’t you?”

Cordy nodded, and Zoe gave her an ‘I-knew-it’ look. “Of course he doesn’t tell you a thing.”

At the same time, Zoe searched her memory and said, “John was twenty-one when Dicky was brought home… and by our grandfather, at that. Actually, John did not even know that he had a kid, but as for how our grandfather knows? Let’s just say he’s omnipotent and leave it at that. Anyway, I remembered that John was still abroad when our grandfather came home with Dicky, and I overheard him speaking over the phone that the mother abandoned Dicky at the hospital after delivering him, so our grandfather brought him back.”

Cordy felt a pain in her chest.

Although John had told her that Richard’s mother had abandoned him, she was still stunned to find out that Richard was abandoned at birth.
