A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 276

Noel’s expression turned icy and she barked, "Where did you learn how to drive?!"

"I'm sorry, Miss Sachs," the chauffeur apologized immediately. "That car up front suddenly switched lanes. I had to stop."

"Eyes on the road," Noel said with a displeased scowl.

However, that was when a burly, menacing man clad fully in black and wearing shades strode over to them. He knocked on Noel's side of the door.

Startled, her first thought was that he wanted to kidnap her.

"Drive!" she shrieked in agitation.

"But we're stuck, Miss!" the chauffeur cried helplessly. "They’ve cut us off from the back, too!"

Noel was certainly terrified out of her wits, but just as she took out her phone to call the cops, a call reached her instead.

In her panic, she answered it.

"Hello, Miss Sachs. I'm Jessica Stuart," the voice on the other end said.

Noel was stunned; for a second, she wondered if she was hearing things.

"If you could please alight from the car, my bodyguards will escort you to my tea garden. I have something I would like to discuss with you, face-to-face," Jessica continued calmly. "Don't worry. My family is involved in legitimate businesses, and we pose no threat to you."

When Noel remained hesitant, so Jesscia added, "I'm sure you're smart enough to understand the saying, the enemy of my enemy is my friend?"

With that, Jessica hung up.

As Noel had always been a schemer, she soon came to a realization.
