A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 769

After she was done with work, Zoe swiftly removed her makeup.

Today was Yelena's third birthday, and she had promised to celebrate it with Yelena.

Thankfully, filming began in the afternoon and it ended at night.

Although it was slightly late, she would not miss the appointment.

"Congratulations, Zoe!" Candice said, "I didn't think that you'd rank third in this round. I was still worried that the role was so minor that you might be forgotten. Indeed, there are no lousy roles, only lousy actors."

"Congratulations to you too for coming out second. You really deserve it." Zoe congratulated Candice perfunctorily.

"Are you in a rush?" Candice saw Zoe hurriedly packing her things and asked. "I was talking about celebrating our win last night with Director Parker and thanking him with a meal."

"Tonight? I can't make it tonight, I already have an appointment." Zoe rejected Candice without a second thought.

"You really can't go?"

"I really can't."

"Who are you meeting that's so important?" Candice could not understand.

Why would Zoe give up on such a golden opportunity to get close to the judge?

Of course, Candice was not insisting on Zoe going. In fact, if Zoe was not around, she would have one less competitor vying for Director Parker's attention.

But women were always curious.

"The most important person to me in this whole world." The corners of Zoe's lips lifted.

Candice was stunned.

Although Zoe was usually friendly and easy-going, she was not a very smiley person.

At that moment, Candice could sense her joy so clearly.

"Your boyfriend?" Candice guessed.

"No."

"Husband?"

"Don't guess anymore, none of the above is right." Zoe was finally done with removing her makeup, and she said, "Have fun tonight."

She grabbed her bag and left.

So…

Jay's brows furrowed.

"I'm sorry, Director Parker. I really have something on. Have fun tonight," Zoe apologized.

She did not dare to offend him, after all.

No matter what Jay truly thought, Zoe would still respect whoever she should show respect to.

Jay did not say anything further. He simply raised the window and instructed the driver to drive off.

She felt that Jay did not look very pleased.

Forget it.

No one was more important than Yelena.

She had to do what she had to do.

It was now the peak hour on the roads. Zoe finally managed to hail a taxi and headed straight to the high-class restaurant she had reserved.

From afar, she could see Clara and Yelena seated at the table waiting for her.
