Cordy assured Dicky. "Don't worry. You'll definitely grow very tall."
"Yeah!" Dicky nodded. "I'll definitely become taller than Lucas.”
Cordy was left speechless, since that might be unnecessary.
What if he got taller than six feet? That would make getting a girlfriend harder.
Nonetheless, her feigned composure crumbled after Dicky left.
It had been an unpleasant day, after all.

Early next morning, someone knocked on Cordy's door.
She opened it to find Sean standing at the doorway, looking a little tired.
Had he just returned from the hospital? What about Nana?
"Sorry to wake you this early," he apologized, unaware that he was insomniac.
Come to think of it, Cordy had been forgetting to buy herself sleeping pills since she came to Cranson Hall. She basically hadn’t slept for days; technically, Sean wasn’t waking her up.
"How's Nana?" she asked bluntly.
"She's fine. She's not in any immediate danger," Sean said, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Cordy remained composed despite Sean’s pointed gaze. "Tell me."
"Nana asked to see you after she woke up," Sean said. "I didn't decide it for you, though—you can go if you want, or say no if you like. Our grandfather will know what to tell the Lynds. He'll never let you suffer."
"Also, I know you're innocent. I've already seen the footage the butler just sent me, and it's all on Nana. I didn't present it as evidence for now, because getting too fussy with distant relatives would inevitably hurt the overall relationship. I'm sure you could tell how close our grandfather was with his sister."
"Alright. I'll go," Cordy said.
She certainly understood Sean's misgivings. To show the Lynds the video to assert her innocence was a slap to their face.
They were relatives and families with wealth and power, so such a thing would only embarrass both parties.
