A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 146

Chapter 146

Still in her MPV, Zoe was scrolling through the news on her phone distractedly.

More articles were appearing online, almost snuffing out the scandal between Kyle and Noel.

She eventually reached Levine Manor, and she alighted to find Jay standing by the front door, seemingly waiting for her.

Zoe simply strode past him, pretending not to see him.

“Zoe,” he called out, but she ignored that too.

“Zoe,” he called out again, reaching out to grab her wrist.

She promptly raised her hand, avoiding his touch while wheeling on him with a cool look. “Don’t touch me. You’ll get your filth on me.”

Jay’s fingers clenched as he lowered his hand, asking, “Have you considered what you’re going to do about the scandal?”

“My management company is on it. Don’t worry, it won’t affect the TV series.”

“It’s Johnny in that photo, right? At my father’s seventieth birthday.”

Jay sounded positive, but Zoe did not respond even as he continued, “I can talk to him on your behalf, see if he could enforce a media blackout.”

Although John did not agree with Zoe’s involvement in showbiz and would never help her whatever happened, he was very close with Jay. And since Jay was also John’s uncle, John would usually have to listen to him to some extent.

But Zoe did not need that.

“Could you just stay away from me, Jay Parker?” she snapped.

He gulped, but he otherwise stayed silent.
