A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 94
In the end, they were just strangers who made a passing acquaintance. "I'll enforce a press gag as soon as possible. Send me your account number—I'll wire any amount of capital you're short of," John eventually said, but his neutral voice obscured any emotion he felt. "I have a PR time specializing on crisis mitigation who's abroad at the moment, but I'll have them fly here by tomorrow morning. Just spare some time, and I'll arrange for a meeting."Cordy bit her lip.She actually did not yearn for any help from anyone at this time—especially after all that she had been through. Back when she was just eighteen, she had been mocked and ridiculed. No one stood up for her, and her biological father considered her such an embarrassment that he could not wait to send her abroad so that his reputation would not be ruined.This was the exact same situation, and everyone could not wait to cut ties with her…That was, everyone except John and Zoe.Confusion showed in Cordy's eyes just

John's fingers eased around his golden fountain pen just then, as Randy's words seemed to offer him assurance.As for Randy, he was heaving a subtle sigh of relief—thank goodness he was sharp enough, or the days ahead would be disastrous. "I'll be constantly keeping an eye on things over there too, sir," he quickly added. "I won't ever let her be hurt by those loathsome dirtbags.""Good," John replied, and finally turned his attention to his computer, returning to his own work.-The atmosphere at the conference room in Starstream Group was immeasurably grim.They had never been a major enterprise, but things had always been calm, and they had never faced such a terrible crisis.At wit's end, no one could hide their anxiety and panic at all.Suddenly, someone spoke."Sis, have you thought of a solution? If this goes on, I'm worried that our company would…"Noel deliberately allowed her words to trail off, while appearing to look apprehensive as well.Cordy looked at her jus

"I believe in you too, Ms. Sachs," Stacy quickly chimed in. "It wasn't easy for Starstream Group to turn over a new leaf, and it's not worth falling to this setback. I'm with you as we do all we can to resolve this crisis.""We're with you too, Ms. Sachs!"All at once, the atmosphere was charged by the sudden show of solidarity with Cordy.Noel was naturally scowling slightly—Cordy had genuinely surpassed her expectations.Forget being calm despite the serious crisis and the prospect of bankruptcy—she had somehow managed to draw everyone to her cause even now!Still, Noel's eyes flashed dangerously. So what if everyone was standing with Cordy? It was just an appeal to emotion. She would never believe that Cordy could save Starstream Group on her own!-And yet, Noel's face fell the instant she returned to the office.Every article of Cordy's scandal which topped search trends had been removed—all of them!There was nothing on Cordy, and while there were more than a few thr

Cordy was sitting in her office as she looked through her phone, seeing that all the scandalous articles on her had been taken down.She naturally knew that it was John.Her heart fluttered ever so slightly, but she restrained herself. Soon, Zoe posted a tweet on her personal account.[Each person has a past, but facts would only be speculation until proven. However, certain people really need to grow a conscience!]The tweet was clearly a show of support for Cordy, and was hinting that she had been framed.It caused yet another fervent debate among the netizens.Some were naturally flaming Zoe for not having a conscience herself, that she had abandoned morals for the sake of money.On the other hand, those who supported Zoe spoke up. They point out that the endorsement fee she earned from being brand ambassador to Starstream Fashion was spare change compared to her net worth, even speculating there was something fishy because she certainly did not have to go that far for so l

Since Cordy would eventually make a fool of herself, Kyle believed he just had to wait and see her lose everything.After that, he would see if she would still have the cheek to stay on her high horse!…On the other end, Cordy could hardly bottle up her rage as she put down her phone.She did not hold Kyle's duplicity against him, because if there was no love involved, that was the end of the story—no one can be coerced into loving another.But she never knew that he could be so despicable… so ungrateful!She had never regretted all the things she did for him like she did now.Her eyes narrowed right then, her tolerance toward Kyle having reached its limit.Since she could bring Jessop Corp back from the brink of collapse, she would return it to the state she found it in!That was when her phone chimed with several notifications, and she tapped on it to find several media files sent by John.She gulped.Suddenly, she was once again confused if she should trust anyone else.

The conference room was bustling when they entered.Countless shutters started snapping once the journalist noticed Cordy's arrival, and the camera flashes were endless.Dressed in black business attire, Cordy appeared at once fashionable and professional, with her calm and collected appearance already giving a good impression.At the very least, she was not starting things off by crying to appeal to sympathy. Naturally, Noel was a stark contrast to that as she stood at Cordy's side, her eyes already red as if she was already given grief. Still, not many journalists took notice of Noel—they were all bombarding Cordy relentlessly with questions the instant she entered. "Ms. Sachs, have you called this press conference to confess to having multiple affairs as the articles yesterday had proven?""Don't you feel ashamed for having affairs with other men, Ms. Sachs? Was your two-timing the reason for your breakup?""Zoe York tweeted in support of you. What favors are you offering
A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 100
The journalist was abruptly left embarrassed. It was certainly true—they were all asking questions endlessly, one after another from the start.Cordy had no chance to speak at all."If everyone is done, please stay quiet for a moment and listen to what I have to say," she continued with a neutral tone. "Once I'm done, I will answer any questions you have, with everything I know—if time permits."The conference room turned silent right then. Everyone was watching Cordy expectantly. If there was an elegant reversal to be had here, it deserved nothing less than exclusive headlines."I will admit that the photos which surfaced yesterday are 100% genuine and not fabricated," Cordy said then, her expression calm as ever.While there were audible snorts around the room, most of the journalists stayed silent and waited for Cordy to finish."I'm sure everyone is aware that I used to work at Jessop Corp's PR departments. Back when I first joined the company alongside Kyle Jessop, the

Noel's denial was suspiciously specific, and even she started to panic after she said it.The journalists were puzzled by her words as well.But since she was not the main character here, they did not pay her much attention, instead asking Cordy with anticipation, "Do you know who this person is, Ms. Sachs?""Who would frame you in secret?""Why would she do it? Because she could not bear to see you doing well?"Cordy was almost scarily calm in contrast to their eagerness, and she replied, "The person who is with Kyle now… No, the person who already hooked up with Kyle, even while he and I were in a relationship, is the person you're looking for."The journalists were even more excited right then. In other words, Cordy was saying that Kyle had cheated on her, instead of it being the other way around!What a dramatic turn of events!"Sis, you shouldn't lie in front of the press. I know you just want to distract them and get Starstream out of this crisis, but Kyle has always be
