A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 56

Chapter 56

Cordy took a deep breath.

She had always kept business and pleasure separate.

Looking down at the message notification popping on her phone, she decided to ignore it.

John was sitting in the executive office of the Levine Ventures branch over at Los Loco.

He scowled at his phone, which was not jingling at all.

Randy Martin was standing beside him, too afraid to even say a word.

It was not as if things were bad-in fact, the sudden inspection to the branch here revealed that every operation and project was showing more than satisfactory performance.

Even so, his boss was glowering with bloodlust.

“Randy.”

“Sir?”

“Book the earliest flight tomorrow. We’re going back to North City.”

“Don’t we have an appointment with that key figure in this city?” Randy pointed out-since they were here for the inspection, they had set up meetings with any clients or potential partners as well.

“We’ll leave in the evening,” John said, correcting himself.

But he was going back tomorrow one way or the other!

“…Yes, Mr. Levine,” Randy replied respectfully, but it would be midnight before they were finished. It must be Cordy, huh?

After all, John had been constantly glancing at his phone ever since he arrived in Los Loco, and he was occasionally caught staring blankly at the dark screen on his phone.

Truly, a man in love must not be observed from an average Joe’s perspective.

Back at the film set at North City, they were reshooting the kiss scene.

After Zoe composed herself, she and Hal had a chat and quickly got to know each other to ease the awkwardness.

Then, the camera assistant announced, “Scene 3, sequence 1, take 2. Action!”

Zoe and Hal quickly went into character.
