A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 104

Chapter 104

Cordy had no intention of letting Noel weasel away out of her guilt–certainly not in front of the press.

“Cheaters and mistresses don’t deserve forgiveness,” she declared sonorously, enunciating every word.

And it was certainly true.

There was a reason behind anything, but not cheating!

Noel bit her lip right then.

Naturally, she knew that her appeal was not going to fly with Cordy, so she let her eyes well with tears again and she sobbed. “I know you’re still upset, sis. But I believe blood is thicker than water, and time would heal all wounds.”

“Blood is thicker than water?!

“Hold on, that is kind of true. Blood could occasionally be filthier than water!”

“Noel Sachs, how do you still have the cheek to talk like that?! Blood is thicker than water?! You don’t want to hurt your sisterly bond?!” One of the journalists shouted right then, unable to stand the sheer hypocrisy. “Granted, even if it was as you have said–that right and wrong doesn’t matter in love–you’re the one who deliberately leaked those photos of your own sister to slander her. Don’t you feel ashamed at all?!”

“I never framed her!” Noel quickly denied it. “I don’t know about those photos of my sister at all. I’ve always felt guilty toward her and wanted the best for her. Why would I try to hurt her? That’s why I stayed at Starstream Group–to help my sister lead the company to new heights, to make up for what I owe her.”

Noel certainly doubted Cordy could present evidence that she was the one who leaked the photos.

Kyle was the one who did it, and he would never betray her.

Forget that he was still in love with her–they were now on the same boat, and Kyle was not that stupid!

Even so, the journalists were dead set that it was Noel.
