Chapter 1259

Zoe was stunned for a moment, before realizing what Nancy meant.

Cordy was a little embarrassed from the flattery, while Nancy quickly said, “Alright, let’s eat.”

“Thank you, Aunt Nancy,” Cordy said earnestly-being accepted by family was most precious and emotional for her, someone who was denied familial warmth since she was a child.
