A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 39

Chapter 39

Cordy led Richard to a comer of the banquet hall, with his bodyguard in tow but keeping a distance

Ri, hard did not like him getting too close, after all

You brought hem here, sis? Noel exclaimed just then.

She was there with Mandy to get some desserts.

Though the debacle earlier left them infuriated, they calmed down after considerable effort only to run into Cordy again.

Still, Cordy promptly growled a warning. “Noel Sachs, your father should have told you that you shouldn’t embarrass yourself at this banquet. If you keep messing with me, I can’t guarantee I’ll keep holding back from doing something outrageous!”

Noel’s face fell-she was definitely afraid to upset Cordy.

Mandy was not, but she left them, having seen Jay Parker arrive at the banquet hall just then.

He was the reason she came here tonight.

He was a famous director who worked under Windmill Pictures, a subsidiary of Levine Ventures, and he was also directing the TV series which she was removed from. Naturally, a mere director would not be allowed in this banquet as well, but Jay was an orphan whom Alan took under his wing, raising him since

he was a child.

Alan naturally held him in high regard.

“Mr Parker,” Mandy greeted him.

Jay stared at her for a moment-they were naturally acquainted since they were both in showbiz.

“Ms. Jessop,” he replied politely.

“May I ask why my role was suddenly taken away?” Mandy went straight to the point.

“That’s an executive decision. I don’t know the details.”

“Aren’t you a shareholder of Windmill Pictures?”
