The eye-catching title was written large and bold: [Meet Jay Parker, Zoe York's Rumored Lover!]Cordy watched as Zoe's fingers shook, and she quickly took out her phone as well to read the article.The article gave a simple recap of the scandal on Zoe before, and now confirmed the relationship between Zoe and Jay. They even went out of their way to mention that Mandy Jessop was originally the female lead for Pomp and Circumstance, but the role was ultimately given to Zoe.Fueled by speculation, the relationship was no different from confirmed.Cordy tapped on the photos attached to the article, where Zoe and Jay were keeping their distance from each other. Even though the photos were taken quite far away, one could tell that they were arguing.The article simply posited it as them getting upset from getting photographed, causing the scandal before.Still, it was not surprising that the media would be convinced that Jay was the one from the photos censored with mosaic before. Anyo

Looking up at Cordy just then, Zoe asked, "You must be curious as to how John ended up bringing Dicky home, aren't you?"Cordy nodded, and Zoe gave her an 'I-knew-it' look. "Of course he doesn't tell you a thing."In reality, Cordy simply did not ask. At the same time, Zoe searched her memory and said, "John was twenty-one when Dicky was brought home… and by our grandfather, at that. Actually, John did not even know that he had a kid, but as for how our grandfather knows? Let's just say he's omnipotent and leave it at that. Anyway, I remembered that John was still abroad when our grandfather came home with Dicky, and I overheard him speaking over the phone that the mother abandoned Dicky at the hospital after delivering him, so our grandfather brought him back."Cordy felt a pain in her chest.Although John had told her that Richard's mother had abandoned him, she was still stunned to find out that Richard was abandoned at birth.The very thought left her suffocating, just as sh

Zoe nodded and said earnestly, "Cordy, you're so nice. John's lucky to have met you."Cordy became a little embarrassed by Zoe's words. In reality, she was lucky to have met John too."Thank goodness Dicky's mother was blind, or I'd never have such a nice cousin-in-law," Zoe said, continuing her flattery. "Just sleep," Cordy urged Zoe with a smile, and then hurried off to the bathroom.Zoey watched as Cordy left, her smile slowly fading.She wondered just then if women had to meet scumbags before meeting their prince. Even Cordy had to run into one like Kyle Jessop.As for herself, Jay was more than enough.-Zoe was woken by her phone's ringtone early the next morning, and seeing who it was, she answered with a groan. "Linda, didn't I tell you that Jay Parker would handle it? We just have to wait, so don't bother me already…""He just made an announcement," Linda said bluntly.Zoe promptly sat up on bed, wide awake right then.Cordy was woken by Zoe too, and she rose to fi

Zoe said nothing, because she had no wish to do so.Linda seemed to sense her displeasure, and she was convinced that Mandy had stolen Jay from Zoe.Still, she sighed. Given Mandy and Jay's influence, Zoe would just have to take this bullet."There's plenty of good men in showbiz, not just Jay Parker," Linda said to comfort Zoe. "Also, the studio is planning to send a statement of support for their relationship, since they both announced it on their respective social accounts. Is that acceptable to you?"They were certainly considerate of Zoe's feelings."It's your call," Zoe simply said. "Alright, then take the day off," Linda told her. "I'll apply for a day's leave for you.""Yeah," Zoe replied, and hung up.She then read through updates on Mandy, who most recently tweeted on her personal account: [Jay and I have been dating for a while. Things are fine between us, and it will only get better from here. Thanks for everyone's concern.] There was even a photo of her and Jay,

But if Jay did not like Zoe, why would he sacrifice himself for Zoe's sake?"Things are complicated between them," John explained. "I'm keeping the details confidential for Jay since Jay is my friend and elder, but the bottom line is that they can't be together."Cordy was actually annoyed that John was openly keeping something from her.Still, John suddenly gave in. "It's not as if I can't tell you…"Cordy, however, did not believe that John was that agreeable. Especially considering his cunning nature!"But since this concerns my family's privacy, I'm afraid I can't reveal it to someone outside the family. That said, you'll have the right to know everything if you marry me."John said it as if it was only natural, leaving Cordy speechless.She already wanted to comment on Alan Levine being as devious as a snake, but it seemed now that the Levines were all a nest of vipers."Anyway," John continued. "Zoe can sleep over at your place for a few days. I'll tell her to move out on

Even before Noel spoke to Cordy, Mandy arrived, escorted by a handful of assistants, and she immediately scoffed at Cordy. "Oh, the world is so small… To think that we'd run into you here."Cordy was actually surprised that Mandy was a part of this.Still, she soon remembered that Solo Show could never get current A-listers. All they had were either former stars whose popularities were fading, or actresses who were at best B-listers. And since the designers were newcomers or even amateurs, there was no popularity to be gained for real stars here.Naturally, Cordy simply ignored Noel and Mandy, since there was nothing to be said to them.But just as she was about to leave, Mandy laughed with utter disdain. "Cordy Sachs! Anyone can take pride in themselves, but always beware that it doesn't become vanity. Aren't you afraid of humiliating yourself in front of one billion people across the country?!""Shouldn't you be more concerned about yourself, Ms. Jessop?" Cordy retorted. "I know

Noel certainly could not depend on her own family since they were strictly patriarchal. They could accept paying the media for publicity, but they would refuse immediately if it were more than what they were willing to pay. But with the Jessops joining in, she could easily surpass her original budget.That was why she went to Kyle and competed as the chief fashion designer of Sachs Enterprises.Even if she felt nothing toward Kyle now, she still had uses for him before achieving the success she wanted.Moreover, Kyle would only be too eager to accept her proposals, not to mention that the money spent would basically clear both their names! And if she could win the grand prize as Jessop Corp's representative, she would also strengthen their reputation.Noel's eyes narrowed right then.She never unleashed her true potential when she worked at Starstream Fashion—not even when Cordy pushed her to design a template for their autumn collection. After all, she refused to work for Cor

Randy was left speechless as he looked on.He understood that Cordy was beautiful and would eclipse even star celebrities if she stood beside them… but John could get cross-eyed if he kept watching the same video repeatedly!Randy could not help chuckling as he imagined the sight! Still, he quickly turned silent the next instant as John glared at him."Do you find this funny?" John asked."Nope," Randy replied, and added. "Mrs. Levine is beautiful."That only made John scowl harder, leaving Randy on the verge of tears. What was wrong with praising Cordy?! She was beautiful!"Out!" John barkedRandy did so immediately,
