Chapter 708
Zoe was therefore perplexed when she noticed Cordy’s sadness. When Zoe left the city before, Cordy
didn’t love John.
To be precise, Cordy refused to admit that she loved him.
Yet, the man was simply extraordinary.
To be honest, if Zoe wasn’t that chummy with John since a child to the point that she didn’t think of him
as a man, she herself might not be able to resist his magnificence. Moreover, John was the one who
went all out to woo Cordy.
Falling in love was a matter of time for them; Cordy obviously loved him deeply, too.
Perhaps too deeply.
For Cordy’s part, it had been a long time since she came to this place.
In fact, she was afraid to-John’s body wasn’t here, anyway.
They didn’t even find a piece of him, let alone his body.
They were simply putting him where he belonged, for he was a Levine and naturally should be returned
to where he was.
In fact, what the Levines buried here was a set of his clothes he wore before, and pretended as if he
was home.
Zoe cried, “W-What should we do?”
The shock left her helpless.
“What else can we do?! Put out the fire!” Quinn snapped.
“Oh, right!” Zoe exclaimed, and promptly took off her coat.
Quinn followed suit, and Cordy had no choice but to follow.
The trio did their best, but just as they put it out…
“What are you doing?!” A voice barked in the darkness.
Zoe thought that she would have died hundreds of times over if she had a bad heart.
Nonetheless, the trio turned to find a security guard dressed in uniform, scowling as he barked at them,
“Got yourselves drunk and came to set the place on fire, did we?”
Zoe began, “Look, gramps-’
“Who are you calling gramps?!” The man was further incensed. “I’m just in my thirties!”
Zoe was left speechless for a moment, wondering how white his hair was for a thirtyish man. Still, she
said, “Look, friend, we’re not here to burn things or anything. We’re just here to visit a grave, and the
candle we brought somehow set the flowers on fire. But see? We already put it out-“
“Visiting a grave late at night? Do you think I’m that stupid?” the man barked, and promptly whipped out
his phone to call the cops.
