A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 85

Chapter 85

Cordy asked, “Do you have a problem with Director Parker?”

“No,” Zoe replied nonchalantly.

Even so, Cordy thought that things were weird between Zoe and Jay.

For one, why would Zoe refuse to take his call?

Reasonably speaking, one would feel bad if they did not answer a director’s call, would they not?

Or maybe Zoe was more important than the project?

After all, she heard that the TV series was just slightly above B-list, but not actually A-list.

And with Zoe’s current status in showbiz, she could get S-list scripts whenever she wanted.

But while Zoe could throw her weight around, she did not look like the type who would do that. “I’m sleepy.” Zoe yawned just then. “I’m going to bed.”

“Okay.”

Cordy certainly would not pry into the private affairs of others, not to mention that she and Zoe were not that close.

But somehow, they were sharing a bed already.

Early next morning, Cordy made a simple breakfast for herself and Zoe.

When a drowsy Zoe emerged from the bedroom, she yawned after spotting the food on the table: “I’m fine-I’m on a diet anyway.”

She was certainly not shy about it at all, while Cordy wondered if she was like this to everyone.

“But you were eating a lot last night…” Cordy pointed out.

“Exactly. That’s why I have to go on a diet now,” Zoe said, as if it made perfect sense.

“Skipping breakfast is bad for the stomach.”

“I know. My assistant will bring me boiled eggs and low-fat milk. I’ll have those in the car.”

“You’re leaving already?” Cordy asked.

“Director Parker did tell me not to be late yesterday. I’d never dare to upset him.”

Cordy frowned.
