Chapter 156
“Yeah,” Cordy replied, though she would not actually mind Zoe staying longer.
Changing the subject, John asked, “Ms. Sachs, wouldn’t you like to go on a trip?”
Cordy was at a loss for words-he was really getting energetic, was he not?
“I’m sorry, I’ll be busy in the immediate future,” she said, rejecting him right then since she had to prepare for the reality show.
John was clearly upset at that, and asked, “How long for?”
“Probably three months.”
If they lasted until the finals, naturally.
“Remember, you can’t turn me down after three months!” he said, his tone demanding but his words tender.
Cordy’s heart skipped a beat, but she ultimately agreed to it.
A week later, the news about Jay was starting to cool off-probably because the Levines intervened.
Jay was certainly smart. Even if the Levines had no reason to help Zoe’s showbiz career, they had reason to help Jay, and they naturally had to enforce a media gag on any news that reflected badly on Jay.
In fact, Cordy ran into Noel as soon as she arrived at the studio, though she was not surprised to see Noel there.
Her stepsister had always been a show-off, and Noel would never spare a chance to flaunt herself.
Naturally, Noel also wanted something to clear her name after the scandal before. It was therefore no surprise that both Jessop Corp and Sachs Enterprises were backing her in secret.
On the other hand, Noel was left in disbelief when she saw Cordy.
Did Cordy think owning a fashion company gave her the right to take part in a competition for fashion designers?!
How hilarious!
