A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 72

Chapter 72

Noel had called Simon immediately after she left Cordy’s office before driving straight to the hospital where John was staying.

She had certainly been waiting for this day.

Without any chance to get close to John and worried that she might repulse him, she now had the perfect excuse to approach him after he was hospitalized.

And when it came to men, she had always bewitched them with relative ease.

She knocked on the bedroom door and entered, a bouquet of flowers in her hand and a bright smile on her face.

Seeing the man who was ridiculously handsome even as he lay in bed, she greeted him. “Hello, Mr. Levine.”

John, however, was looking at her coolly, so she quickly introduced herself. “I’m Noel Sachs, Cordy’s sister.”

“Same father, different mother,” John added.

It left Noel feeling a little awkward, but she soon regained her composure. “You see, my sister is busy, so she sent me here to visit you. Also, allow me to apologize on behalf of Starstream Group after one of the workers wounded you. What happened was really regrettable…”

John, however, was staring at her judgmentally. “Cordy sent you, you say?”

“Yes, but please don’t get upset at her, Mr. Levine. She only recently took over Starstream and there’s a lot of work to do. She can’t step away for the moment,” Noel quickly said in defense of Cordy.

However, she was still confident-she could steal Kyle from Cordy before, and she would do the same with John now!

“Really?” John exclaimed then with an obviously sarcastic tone, and mercilessly exposed her. “But my memory serves, you stole her fiance. Are you sure she’d send you here after that?”

It was a clear slap in the face, but Noel quickly explained, “That’s not it, Mr. Levine. I think you’ve misunderstood what’s going on between me, my sister, and Kyle=”

“I have no interest in you or Kyle Jessop,” John said, cutting her short. “I would like to recover in peace, and since you’re of no concern, please don’t disturb me.”

He was clearly telling Noel to leave, which left her looking awkward.
