A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 440

As they ate, one of the servants walked up to John and asked respectfully, “Mr.

Levine, you were saying to throw away that set of formal wear last night?”

He was probably uncertain since John’s clothing was worth a fortune, and they would

never afford to pay the compensation if they were to throw it away by mistake.

“Yeah.” John nodded.

The servant certainly had more to say, but considering that they did not know what it

was like to be rich, he replied politely, “Yes, Mr. Levine.”

With that, he left.

Cordy watched as he left before glancing at John.

“Actually, you could just send me back to North City,” Cordy suddenly said, since she

did not believe that he was happier with her around.

Being sandwiched between two women would only make one infuriated.

Nonetheless, John refused her immediately. “I’d be more at ease with you beside me.”

“And how long do you intend to keep me here?”

“Well see.” John refused to give a definitive answer.

Cordy bit her lip but ultimately refrained from asking.
