A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 148

Chapter 148

At the very least, Cordy considered Jay to be more reliable at a white-collar job than Zoe.

John’s reply to that was: [My grandfather forbids it.]

While Cordy was left puzzled again, he added:

[Since Jay is adopted, my grandfather doesn’t want him getting involved in Levine Ventures to avoid a power struggle that would affect the family.]

Cordy actually understood the reasoning, but she also found it very obviously unfair toward Jay.

Did none of them put Jay’s feelings into consideration?

Still, she quickly realized that John was misdirecting her-something he seemed to have a flair for.

[So, aren’t you going to help Zoe?]

[She’ll handle it on her own, or she’ll come to me if she can’t do it.]

Fine.

Cordy thought then that since Zoe was a member of the Levine family, the Levines would not just sit by and watch while she got harassed.

However, just as she tapped out of the chat box with John and got prepared to work, another text popped up.

[That’s it?]

Cordy frowned-what else were they supposed to talk about?

It was still work hours and she still had a lot of work to do.

Most importantly, North City Channel (NCC) was about to broadcast a reality fashion show where celebrities wore dresses from different designers. Cordy herself was thinking about taking part as a publicity event to expand Starstream Fashion’s clientele.

Nonetheless, John asked: [How long has it been since we last met?]

How long?

Hold on, it had been over a week!

[We haven’t seen each other since we confirmed our relationship.]

John seemed to be sighing with every word, while Cordy pursed her lips-that certainly was the case.
