A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 657

Zoe's eyes shifted.

All of a sudden, she saw Jay appear, and he was surrounded by many cameras too.

They were probably filming behind-the-scenes of the rehearsal.

There was not much footage to offer here, though, given that she was all alone.

"Where is Candice Lowe and Wynn Yaden?" the director asked.

"They aren't free."

"You're the only one rehearsing?"

"I don't have anything else to do anyway," Zoe said with a smile.

The director did not say anything further, and he led the camera crew away without a word.

"Wait," Jay suddenly called out.

"Mr. Parker, what's the matter?" the director asked politely.

"Since we're already here, let's have a look at Zoe York's solo performance."

"All right." The director agreed before turning to Zoe. "Give your movie excerpt a shot."

If Zoe were honest, she would have said that she was not willing to do it.

There were many scenes of conflict which made it hard for her to get into the mood all by herself.

"Zoe York, put your best foot forward. There's a chance we might include this footage," the director reminded her.

Zoe gritted her teeth and acquiesced.

She began acting out her part in front of the crew.

She did her best to get into the mood, but the overall scene did not look good.

Zoe saw Jay's face change and knew that something was wrong.

Did he feel like she was an insult to his work?!

It was at that moment that Zoe noticed Jay leaning against his walking stick.

Did he fall and break his bone a few days back?

The thought of Jay sprawling on the floor made her almost gleeful about his misfortune.
