All Chapters of A Life Debt Repaid: Chapter 131 - Chapter 140

As John agreed to Cordy's invitation without any questions, she started to type again.[Bring Dicky…]However, she suddenly paused before deleting the draft.She left her bathroom and changed into fresh clothes before going out to buy food ingredients.She was thinking about cooking dinner—after all, how hard could it be?After getting the ingredients, she downloaded a cooking app and went to work according to the recipes provided… -In the evening, Cordy still had her apron on her when the doorbell rang.She quickly went to answer the door.John was standing outside with a bouquet in his hands. He appeared formal and handsome as ever with his black suit and silver necktie."I came here once I was done with work," he said, explaining his getup.Cordy smiled. She certainly knew that was not the case. "Come in," she said, taking the flowers and giving him his slippers.John put them on before entering and immediately picked up a scent he could not quite describe. It coul

Even as their eyes met, certain feelings were undoubtedly growing.Cordy genuinely did not think that after all the dark times she survived—and more recently Kyle—that she would suddenly begin another relationship. She was not actually sure about this, but she took the first step regardless.Was it John who was good at flirting, or was he not as cold as she thought—not as disenchanted with the world as she believed? And after confirming their relationship, they were suddenly both silent, making things rather awkward. "Do you hate that man who slept with you?" John suddenly asked. There was a hint of nervousness in his impassive expression, while Cordy was just confused why he would ask about that. Maybe because she disliked men after that incident?"I do," she said.John blinked subtly even as Cordy continued, "He was clearly conscious at the time. I remembered it so clearly, begging him to stop and not to touch me… but he never did."The past memory still left her with

"Well, there's nothing I can really do against you…" Cordy said, sounding as if she could not help it.Plum was delighted inwardly, convinced that Cordy was already giving up.Age before beauty, indeed! Cordy never stood a chance against her!"Well, we are family, so we shouldn't hold grievances against each other," Plum said cheerfully. "In that case, you should go to the police station and rescind your charges—""I want ten percent of Sachs Enterprises' shares." Cordy cut Plum short right then.Both Simon and Sue's faces fell, with Sue exclaiming in agitation, "Don't be so greedy, Cordy! You're demanding a mile when we just gave you an inch!" "An outsider like you doesn't get to decide what happens to Sachs Enterprises!" Cordy snapped at Sue right then, leveling her an icy look. "Who do you think you are, criticizing me?!" Sue was left flushing, but she did not have a comeback against Cordy.That was when Simon spoke. "No. Absolutely not."Short and blunt, he meant that he

There was no stopping the press coverage at all, as if someone was encouraging every media outlet to keep pumping out more scandalous articles on Noel and Kyle. No other news seemed to make headlines either, and their scandal remained stuck at first place on every search engine, the hate only seeming to grow worse by the day!Naturally, their families' respective businesses were at a constant decline as well.If this continued, both Jessop Corp and Sachs Enterprises would be bankrupted by a single scandal… which would certainly be an unprecedented case! At a board meeting in Jessop Corp, Dandy Jessop was bellowing at Kyle in front of the other board members and executives. "You couldn't buy the media's silence on a single scandal?! How long has it been, or do you want to drag the company down with you?!'Kyle was absolutely indignant, too—he was convinced at first that the scandal would eventually cool off, but he seemed stuck at top searches after so long! Someone must be beh

Mandy had no choice but to leave, gritting her teeth even as Jay looked on.Even so, she always got everything she wanted!-The fashion gala began with the celebrities taking to the red carpet according to an arranged sequence. Mandy would usually be arranged to take the stage early in such events, but thanks to her family's influence, most event organizers would let her place later. Moreover, since Jessop Corp was one of the partners in this event, she was placed second last. But when it was her turn to walk the red carpet, she refused, citing health reasons. The red carpet was vacant for ten minutes, but the organizers could not force Mandy to do anything—no one would dare to provoke her, given her family's influence.Having no choice, the organizers had to ask Zoe to save the day.Zoe was no diva, and she agreed to it despite the apparent displeasure from Linda, her manager.But just as she prepared to take the red carpet, she heard one of the crew members mention Mandy
