NovelEnglishChapter 1195
Cordy quickly said, "No, it's not made for me."
She could understand that Richard meant no harm since he was still a child.
But with Wendy around, saying something like that was inevitably inappropriate.
"No, it really was made for you," Wendy said bluntly then. "I told Johnny to make it for you, since Dicky
said you like it. Why don't you have a taste?"
Cordy pursed her lips, surprised that Wendy was that magnanimous.
In contrast, she felt petty.
Nonetheless, she opened her mouth and ate the slice.
It was much softer than those purchased, and its sweetness melted in her mouth right away.
In fact, Cordy had not been feeling an appetite, but she was suddenly seized by an impulse to start
gluttoning.
"It's good, right?" Wendy asked her expectantly.

"That's what I've been saying," Wendy said sweetly. "I'm so lucky to have met Johnny. He's rich,
handsome, kind, and a good cook.
He's just so perfect..."
Cordy was going to tell her that she did not have to go that far just to brag about her boyfriend, but
Wendy seemed to realize it herself. "Sorry, you don't mind, do you? I didn't mean to brag."
"No, I don't." Cordy smiled faintly.
"By the way, Mommy..." Richard suddenly called her, remembering something just then.
"What is it?"
"My teacher told us to include some family photos as well."
"Family photos?"
Richard turned toward Wendy just then. "Wendy, can you take a photo of our family?"
"Of course." Wendy agreed to it right away, seemingly not taking offense when Richard said ’our
family'.
Naturally, Cordy could not refuse either.
Richard then suggested, "Let's do it in the backyard."
"Okay." Cordy and John agreed to it, and John started to take off his apron.
Wendy headed over and helped him out of it, looking just like the perfect couple.
Cordy held Richard's hand and headed outside first, and it took some time before John and Wendy
came out as well.
They were chatting and laughing, with Wendy mainly doing the talking, and John smiling in turn.
It felt like she was just messing around, while he played along with her antics.
"Daddy, over here." Richard beckoned at John eagerly just then, and he left Wendy to walk toward
Cordy.
She carefully stepped aside, letting Richard stand between them to keep her distance.
Wendy was happily holding up Richard's phone.
"Three, two—"
Before she said one, she lowered the phone, leaving Cordy frowning.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhat was Wendy playing at? Her smile was starting to get unnatural!
"I think the way you're standing is unnatural," Wendy said nonetheless. "It's a family photo, not a
passport photo. Relax, and try to look more like a happy family."
John patiently asked, "Well, what should we do?"
Cordy could not help looking at him then.
He never liked taking photos or wasting time, but he was surprisingly tolerant of Wendy.
"Dicky, don't stand between your parents. Stand in front of them," Wendy instructed.
After Richard did so, Wendy told John, "Move closer to Cordy, Johnny. At least let your shoulders
touch."
Cordy pursed her lips.
Was Wendy that naive or magnanimous?!
Even if she was not John's ex-wife, they were exes and had a child together, but Wendy did not seem
to mind at all.
"Move closer, Cordy," Wendy said seriously then. "You're too far— it won't look good in the photo."
Cordy gritted her teeth and moved closer.
She would be the petty one if she started to nitpick.
Moreover, Wendy was already sacrificing herself so much...
