All Chapters of A Life Debt Repaid: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

But at that split second, a deep man's voice spoke from behind. "So you're into that, Ms. Sachs?"Cordy's heart almost jumped out of her chest. She quickly turned, and realized that John had appeared behind her without her knowing!She did not see him come in at all, though she might have been too engrossed to notice his arrival… Still, that was not the point, as the woman in the video was still moaning endlessly.Cordy quickly turned around to turn off the video, but she was fumbling so much she could not seem to click out of it at all, and was so flustered she started to sweat all over her brow. That was when a large hand suddenly grabbed her hand, steering the mouse in turn to close the video.And with that, the study fell silent, while Cordy wanted somewhere to hide.She had repeatedly insisted that she disliked intimacy with men and would actually react adversely to it… only to hide such videos on her laptop?There was no explaining this! But as she hung her head, fl

Even so, John could still feel his heart pounding.-Back in Cordy's house, Zoe stepped out of Cordy's study once she deleted the videos, asking, "Is he gone?"Cordy quickly came to her senses, composed herself, and returned to her study. "Yeah.""Was I imposing?" Zoe asked, actually a little guilty just then."No, it's fine." Cordy denied it.Still, Zoe watched her face for a moment before teasing, "That's not your first kiss with him, is it?"Cordy was taken aback, but she shook her head. "No."The last time, John had caught her off guard. She only felt shock and rage at the time.This time, she gave her silent approval.Which was why it felt different—very much so."He's a good kisser, isn't he?" Zoe could not help teasing Cordy again when she saw Cordy's reaction.Cordy was left staring at Zoe, actually unsure how to answer just then.Both kisses were barely a brush, after all… technique was not involved."Oh, that stud." Zoe simply acknowledged John's prowess since

The theme of the design was not announced this time either.The contestants would be given the theme on the spot, and they had to come up with a design with the fabrics provided by the studio. Moreover, they would also be changing partners for said round. Since contestants were allowed to choose partners freely, everyone stuck to their partners from the first round. After all, they would have developed a sense of teamwork, and the designer would have a better understanding of what would fit their partners.The sudden change was obviously to increase the difficulty of the competition.-Over at the CEO's office of Jessop Corp, Mandy was throwing a fit. "What are they thinking?! Why would they set the rule of changing partners for the last round?!"The rule change had caught Kyle and Noel by surprise too.Mandy kept complaining, saying, "Kyle, you know Noel must win this time, but I won't be winning with her if we're not in the same group! That's unacceptable! Aren't you close

John murmured, "Hmm?"At the same time, his eyes were glued to Cordy on the screen.Standing under the stage lights, she was astonishingly beautiful."Getting to the finals is nothing," Randy said just then. "Being able to stay in last place with such precision is so much more divine!"Having worked for John over the years and eventually being promoted to become his special assistant, Randy was certainly competent.He was almost positive that Cordy had deliberately maintained her rank so that she was just short of elimination, while avoiding any attack by those who had financial backers. One might even say that she rose to the pinnacle with almost no cost at all, and it was no different from slamming the Jessops' faces on the floor and wiping it.John's lips curled up into a smile as well—Cordy was definitely far smarter than he thought.-At the studio, the three designers had exchanged partners.Since Cordy was the least popular, she was paired with Mandy, who was the most

Hence, Noel confidently waited for Cordy to present her designs.In fact, Noel was convinced that she might not have to scheme against Cordy to beat her this time. Just then, the crowd was applauding, and Noel turned to find Cordy stepping onstage.Mandy was still in the backstage changing room, so the crowd was relatively calm. After a few minutes, the curtains opened, and the crowd was once again roaring in approval as Mandy arrived on stage, once again stealing the limelight.It was a red gown, covered from top to bottom with bright red roses, and yet showing no vulgarity. Not only was it fresh and novel, but it was also stunningly attractive. Noel's design only had amplified aesthetics, and any audience would only admire its elegance from afar. On the other hand, they would have a pressing need to possess the gown Cordy designed, so that they could put it on and wow the crowd.Naturally, Cordy's design was far more breathtaking, and Noel had already expected that.To be
