A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 81

Chapter 81

Today was the scheduled photoshoot for Zoe York for her endorsement of Starstream Group’s fashion line for the next season.

Cordy was at the studio early in the morning, personally helping Zoe with her wardrobe, hairdressing, and makeup.

This was the first product launch commercial for Cordy since she took over Starstream-it was important to both her and her company, so she would not drag her feet.

She had personally designed Zoe’s dress according to the latter’s measurements, and it was even more fitting than she imagined after Zoe put it on.

“I mean, I’ve seen your designs, but I’m still astonished at how great this looks once I put it on. This has to be the best casualwear I’ve ever put-the design is as perfect as it is unique.” Zoe praised generously as she looked at her reflection in the mirror. “You have to give the designer a bonus.

Cordy smiled. “I’m honored.”

“I’m just telling it as it is, Zoe said bluntly. “If Starstream Fashion still doesn’t skyrocket in popularity with this level of design, I’m the one who’s lacking sway, not the designs.

Cordy certainly must admit that Zoe’s assurances gave her a peace of mind.

While she never doubted her own designs, none of them were marketed and she did not have any idea how the market would react. Even so, Zoe granted her belief.

If she had never been this close to Zoe, Cordy would never expect a beautiful A-list actress like her to carry such a steely determination in private. It was hard not to like Zoe.

“After today’s photoshoot, we will officially announce that you will be the new official endorser of Starstream Group,” Cordy said. “We will also be uploading short highlights from today on YouTube and other platforms to stir the hype. Naturally, any content and documents will be sent to your studio beforehand for approval.”

Zoe nodded. “Your company’s arrangements will do. You’ll find me perfectly cooperative.”

Cordy once again found Zoe exceedingly affable just then.

Did Zoe really not mind her past?

Moreover, she and John were… in a tit-for-tat relationship.

Nonetheless, the photoshoot went smoother than expected, and Zoe was so diligent and dedicated they ended the session two hours ahead of schedule, surprising Cordy yet again. She was actually ready for the photoshoot to last for days, since she had worked with artists before.

At 6 PM and after ensuring that Zoe could take spicy food, Cordy brought her to an authentic Mariachi restaurant.

The long list of Mariachi dishes in the restaurant was a perfect pairing for alcohol.

In their private room, Zoe’s eyes lit up after she took a bite of a spicy sausage. “How did you find this restaurant?”

“I used to work in public relations,” Cordy said as she poured Zoe a glass of beer. “I basically visited every restaurant of every variety throughout North City to draw financiers, and would take them to a restaurant that fit their preferences the most.”

“You’re really different from what I expected,” Zoe said even as she relentlessly stuffed food into her mouth.

It was certainly the first time Cordy had seen an actress eating so carelessly, since most of them had an almost demonic obsession with strict regimes to maintain their figures.

“I used to think that you’re just a pretty face-dependent on men and lacking any competence,” Zoe continued bluntly just then. “Even though you’re pretty.”

It was not the first time Zoe praised Cordy’s good looks.
