[Cancel Mandy already. She has no right to be a celebrity.][Don't you think she broke a dozen laws there? The departments concerned should really launch an investigation and penalize her appropriately.]Still, the competition was over, and the two-hour program somehow extended to four, although the viewership skyrocketed through the roof. And with the recording over, everyone filed out of the studio.Cordy headed backstage to thank Maron before leaving the studio under the crew's escort.However, many journalists were congesting the exit, mobbing Mandy and Noel and preventing them from leaving."Mandy, can you tell us why you would frame Cordy? Could it be because you were afraid Cordy would win and in turn affect Jessop Corp?!""Don't you think such behavior is despicable?!""Don't you expect to be penalized for your actions?!""Mandy, please say something!"The unfriendly questions left Mandy on the verge of falling apart, and she lost all control as she shrieked, "Enough

Noel was surprised that Jay would help Mandy escape. She knew that they were not particularly close and that they had never gone out on a date even after they announced that they were in a relationship. And yet, when Mandy was desperate, he came to her rescue without a care how he would look. He was no different from Prince Charming, riding in on a white horse to his beloved's rescue!Any woman would be envious and hope for such a boyfriend.Noel felt slightly jealous too, since Kyle had not shown up at all.Thankfully, she only lost this competition—her reputation did not suffer a blow.And seeing that Mandy had left, she could win the journalists' sympathy.However, the journalists left her immediately, just as she was about to speak.Noel could only watch as they headed straight for Cordy like moths to a flame. She gritted her teeth and left reluctantly."Ms. Sachs, do you have anything to say about being framed? Don't you think it's unacceptable?!""Don't you feel d

Cordy was caught off guard and flustered at once, but she eventually reached out and put her hand in John's palm.His perfect lips curled upward into a smile, and he led her out from the crowd.Everyone could only watch as they left.Cordy was still in that divine diamond-blue gown. As she stood beside that man with a perfect figure, they looked like something straight out of a chick flick depicting a rich man's wife being caught by her husband and taken home after trying to run away, although the only difference was that this was reality.It was a breathtakingly beautiful sight. The journalists' camera flashes captured them endlessly, and they were still unsatisfied even as the helicopter flew off!-In the helicopter, Cordy looked out of the window as the ground became ever distant. She really wanted to tell John that he did not have to go to such lengths to take her away. He could just do it like Jay—with a car!God knows how much press coverage that commotion would get.

Zoe got into her MPV and left the film set.They had just recorded a rather emotional night scene, and she was still too engrossed in her character.She was starting to come to her senses, and she reclined against the chair and closed her eyes to rest.Linda, her manager, was beside her and chatting with her assistant, Penny."Did you catch Solo Show's final round, Linda?" Penny asked. "I did watch a little on my way to the film set," Linda replied."Me too, but that showdown between Cordy and Noel was so dramatic!" Penny exclaimed earnestly. "There are more plot twists than a drama series, and there's a ton of articles on the news now. It's even more exciting than a period drama!"Zoe blinked. She almost forgot that it was the final round of Cordy's competition today—she was too busy with filming that she did not have time to keep up.Opening her eyes, Zoe asked, "Did Cordy win?""Yes, and it was magnificent. I worship her now!" Penny exclaimed excitedly, but she quickly a

Zoe quickly called Cordy, but the latter's phone was turned off!But Cordy never turned off her phone!As such, Zoe quickly called John, but his phone was turned off as well! Could they have both been abducted?! No way!Zoe became worried and called Bob after some thought. "Do you know where John went? I can't reach him.""...No idea," Bob replied. "Probably off to celebrate with Cordy, perhaps? She was so beautiful tonight, and no man could hold back from a look. If I were John, I wouldn't wait to—""Do you think he's like you?!" Zoe snapped, overprotective toward John as ever."I mean, men aren't all that different…" Bob grumbled.It was just that some were better at hiding their libido than others."Whatever. I guess you wouldn't know," Zoe said."Wait, Zoe." Bob stopped her before she could hang up."What now?""Want to come out for a drink?" he asked, seemingly out of the blue.Zoe frowned. What was he up to this time? And it was already so late!"I'll take a rain c

Cordy had no idea what time it was when she woke up, only that she felt limp and muddled.The room she was in was pitch-black and completely unfamiliar. She could not even remember how she got here or how she got into this bed…Bed?!Cordy promptly pulled off her blanket to check her clothes and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw her clothes hugging her body neatly and tidily. However, she suddenly became nervous just as she was about to relax—she was not wearing this when she got here!Who helped her change? Could it be John?!Cordy also lifted her pajamas to check… and her bra was gone!Her face went crimson right then—how could she sleep so soundly?!Did she not always wake up from the slightest movement?How could she let down her guard around John when he was such a dangerous man?"Could you be imagining some dramatic events in your head, Ms. Sachs?" An attractive man's voice spoke beside her ears just then.Startled, Cordy quickly turned and saw the man leaning no

The ocean was right outside the window, and its waves were splashing over it. If Cordy's hunch was right, the building they were staying in was built right above the ocean.After she and John took their seats, gourmet dishes were served one after the other. They were also each given a glass of bright red wine, and the sight of all the expensive food definitely made Cordy hungry."Eat," John said mildly.Cordy certainly did not hold back, and she picked up her fork to start eating.Perhaps famished, they both kept their heads down and ate for over half an hour until they felt a little full. Cordy then asked, "How long will we be staying here?"John responded with another question. "How many days would you like to spend here, Ms. Sachs?" "Would anything I say mean a thing?" Cordy grumbled.John could not help chuckling and commented, "You're getting smarter, Ms. Sachs."Cordy was left speechless while he said, "Probably a week."Probably?Cordy frowned. "What if you can'

After finishing the call, Zoe quietly lowered her phone.She never told Cordy a thing, and she knew that John never gossiped… or to be precise, John was too busy to gossip about Zoe's private life, not when he still had trouble winning Cordy's heart.In other words, Cordy was just that sharp and noticed a lot about Zoe.Cordy also decided against speaking up just now because Zoe did not mention it despite knowing full well what Cordy was concerned about. But since Zoe chose silence, Cordy did the same as well.Zoe was genuinely lucky that she had a friend as thoughtful as Cordy.On the other hand, Noel and Mandy had always advertised themselves as inseparable best friends and spent who knew how much on buying scripts to emphasize it on Solo Show. But despite becoming the envy of countless people, it turned out that it was single-sided for Mandy, even getting a slap in the face for it in the end!Zoe believed that she was a lucky person who had everything going for her, save for h
