Another interesting chapter. Looks like Ali's parents are happy with her relationship with Cord. I like the part where he was confident enough to question Ali about why she hadn't invited him, and I like his statement,
"Next time when something comes up, please let me make the choice if I'll attend. If your well-being's in question, I'll always say yes. Will you do that for me?"

This chapter looks like it's setting up the next, which you often seem to do. The two of them in her apartment together overnight is going to raise some eyebrows, and especially the fiance. LOL. Thanks for sharing.

Whew! It's good that Cordero is going with Alexandra as a protective measure against Griffin. And it seems they like each other so the time together will give them time to get to know each other better. I liked that Cord asked Anthony, who answered very honestly. I liked that Cord has some intuition about Griffin's real motives.

We'll eventually see what Griffin's real motives are. Thank you for the kind review.

You gave us a clue with how he reacted to the necklace. 😊

If there were errors, I couldn't find them. You are doing such a marvelous job with this novel. In my mind, I go back (what, five to ten years) to the other novels you wrote for FS. Your style, your voice, your technique all have vastly evolved.
He sighed. "We need to return?" [I would have lost my bet. I was so certain they were going to have that memorable kiss! No dog around. What could stop them? Ummm, sorry about the jibe.]

Comment from Ulla
Hi Barbara, It's a shame that Ali has lost all her confidence. I certainly hope it will come back. Cordero is a good man. I'm looking forward to reading about the conflict that is brewing.
My daughter, son-in-law and my three young granddaughters have been here most of the week. It great to seeing them after 2 years and 9 months. Hence I haven't posted. They leave tomorrow at noon. Ulla:)))

Comment from Sankey
Well done and great chapter. I loved the detail on the view from the 70th storey. Looks like her ex might turn up, in the next chapter. Glad Cord is ready for him. No spags.

Comment from Wayne Fowler
Nice development. Good writing.
I thought Cord asked permission to stay in Ali's apartment at least once too many times. "Asked and answered" as the lawyers say in court. (smiley face)
Best wishes.

I think he didn't want to take a chance. At first it was around her parents, and then just with just her. Thank you for the kind review.
Comment from royowen
It turns out, according the Anthony that her fiancé didn't treat her very well. I've been to the top of the Empire State and the Rockefeller centre, they are most impressive. This is a great episode, with the necessary anti hero in the presence of the story, a few actually, a great post Barbara, blessings, Roy

Comment from John Ciarmello
I know Cordero is the perfect gentleman, but perhaps his staying at Ali's apartment will start a more serious relationship. I enjoyed this chapter, and I am sure more will come from Allan. Best, JohnC.

Great chapter, with some interesting developments. I have some advice for Ali and Cord. Cord, treating Ali as if she's in constant need of protection. You're not doing her any good. She'll become too dependent. Ali, don't let Cord take over your life. You're capable of taking care of yourself. You were ready to take on Pat on behalf of the other women, you can surely get a restraining order against Alan or report him if he's assaulted you. Great handling of the NYC setting. judi

Ali was a battered woman. Her self-confidence concerning Alan is gone. I can promise it will return. Thank you for the kind review.
