A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 1179
When Cordy arrived at the lobby of SYX's office building, the front desk receptionist intercepted her."Good morning, ma'am. May I ask for the purpose of your visit?""I would like to meet your CEO," Cordy replied politely."Do you have an appointment, ma'am?""No.""Then I'm sorry, ma'am. You can't meet him if you don't have one—he's really busy," the receptionist said mildly.Cordy pursed her lips, but she could imagine how busy a newly established company would be, especially since they had their hands in so many cookie jars.And barging in might affect the CEO's scheduling, so after some thought, she asked, "What time does he usually leave work?""There's no telling. Sometimes early, sometimes late—there were occasions where he stayed overnight," the receptionist replied.The man was really giving it his all, was he not? It was hardly surprising that the company developed so rapidly."I see. Thank you," Cordy said politely."You're welcome."Cordy left the front desk bu

Robin quickly nodded. He certainly had to agree that SYX was a little depraved since they were too rich.Nonetheless, he asked, "Are we going to keep waiting for their CEO?"Cordy glanced at her watch, wondering if the man was really that hardworking.She really doubted he would work overnight and therefore said resolutely, "Yeah." Robin had no choice but to stick with his boss.-Soon, it was 11 PM.On the top floor, Randy reported, "Ms. Sachs is still waiting, Mr. Levine."John smiled—she really was as tenacious as ever."Should we keep her waiting?" Randy asked. "The air-conditioning downstairs is in full force, and it's getting cold at this hour…"John looked up at him, and he quickly said, "I'll ask someone to set it warmer."However, John suddenly said, "Show her upstairs.""Really?""Take her to the waiting room."What a difficult boss. "And make sure the room temperature is just right. Bring her fruit, snacks, warm milk—""Yes, Mr. Levine." Randy promptly left

John stayed calm and said, "Yeah, I am."Cordy realized with a start then and snorted coolly, "So you were playing me? Was it that fun?""You must have misunderstood, Ms. Sachs. I wasn't avoiding you, but my schedule was packed full and your visit had been sudden," John said before beckoning at Randy. "Please show Ms. Sachs my schedule for the day—""I don't mean today," Cordy growled through her teeth, working hard to make herself stay calm.She was willing to believe that John did not have time the whole day, since he would definitely be very busy with his company, which was expanding into multiple territories simultaneously. What she wanted to ask was something else instead. "You deliberately arranged for the shopping center to reshuffle the leases, didn't you?""It was deliberate, yes," John admitted."You.""But that's not an orchestrated effort against you."Cordy merely stared at him, so he turned to Randy again. "Bring our project plan for KPW.""Yes, Mr. Levine."R

John could barely exert much strength with his right hand, and he was so busy he almost forgot that he was half a patient.His doctor did insist that he rest frequently and attend rehabilitation sessions regularly.-The next day, Cordy was working in her office at Starstream Group when Robin entered. "We just received a tip, Ms. Sachs…""What is it?""The CEO of SYX Corp is going to have dinner with Gareth Bryant tonight. He's the board chairman of Future Tech.""So?' Cordy asked, frowning—she was unusually irritated whenever John was mentioned."Well, Future Tech had been trying to gain a foothold here in North City with a physical outlet. They had one in a rather remote location, but performance has not been ideal for them. Recently, rumor has it that Gareth was trying to get a lease in KPW Shopping Center, but that went south too… Therefore, it's reasonable to speculate that he is having dinner with SYX's CEO to discuss a lease…"Cordy scowled, naturally understanding what

"Of course," Gareth quickly said, and he and Cordy promptly went into an endless discussion, leaving John neglected.And after dinner, both Cordy and Gareth were a little drunk, while John was perfectly sober.In fact, Gareth was starting to feel sick and left immediately with his assistant.Once he was gone, Cordy wanted to leave as well, only for Robin to whisper into her ear, "I'm sorry, Ms. Sachs, but our car broke down and was sent for repairs. Just wait for a moment—I'm calling for another car.""If you don't mind, Ms. Sachs, I can give you a ride," John said then."No." Cordy refused right away.But with that, John did not press the issue and turned to leave with Randy.Along the way, Randy could not resist speaking up again. "You could have insisted on giving Ms. Sachs a ride, Mr. Levine. It's an opportunity to earn her favor.""You wouldn't get it," John told him, grinning.Randy was of the opinion that John was the one who did not.-Meanwhile, Cordy was left with

Her heart pounding, she looked at the man before her and saw that he was not looking composed either.In fact, his face was pale, as if he was more scared than she was.Their eyes met for a couple seconds, but just as Cordy was about to struggle out of John's arms, he scooped her up in his arms."What do you think you're doing?!""Carrying you back to your room.""I don't need that. I can walk fine on my own.""Keep moving, and we'd both fall."Cordy gritted her teeth, but she had no choice but to take it since she could not move, even though she suffered considerably from it.Still, John quickly strode up the stairs with her in his arms and took her to her room.He put her in bed and left immediately after, as if she would sully his modesty if he lingered even for a second.Cordy pursed her lips.John was already gone, but she did not get to vent her grief at all!-"You're back already, Daddy?" Richard exclaimed in surprise as he watched John come downstairs."What sill

"Thank you," John told Cordy politely.However, Cordy said nothing and left with Richard.On the way home, however, Richard suddenly asked, "Mommy, don't you think Daddy looked good?"Cordy's fingers clenched over the steering wheel, but she said nonchalantly, "I wasn't paying attention.""Really?" Richard murmured before adding, "He's going on a blind date today."Cordy blinked and glanced at the boy."Are you upset, Mommy?" Richard quickly asked, sensing Cordy's stare right then."No. Just a little surprised," Cordy said nonchalantly. "Well, Grandaunt Nancy arranged the meeting for him," Richard said. "He didn't want to go, but she insisted.""He wouldn't dress up for the occasion if he was really reluctant." Cordy scoffed."I thought you weren't paying attention, Mommy?" Richard smiled in amusement.Cordy pursed her lips. She could not afford letting her guard down around Richard these days now that he was all grown up."Grandaunt Nancy prepared the suit and everything,

John's blind date laughed. "Well, I've never failed thus far.""By the way, are you really not going to settle down?" her friend asked, her tone turning slightly serious. "It's just been one blind date after another—are you really just going to play around like that?""Settle down? I'm only twenty-four! That'd be a waste of my youth. And you know that I won't ever get my parents to shut up unless I attend these blind dates. And what's the harm when I might find some top-quality stud while I do?""Older men are not that playful, y'know," her friend warned. "He might want you to take responsibility.""Don't worry—I'm a veteran," John's blind dates said nonchalantly. "That said, I don't mind hanging around to play a bit more with this one. You have no idea, but he's the best-looking one I've had yet. He'd even give movie stars a run for their money.""Really?""I'll send a photo over later.""In bed, I hope." Her friend laughed."I'll do my best." John's blind date did not reject
