A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 157

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 conceit. 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 Jay Parker well enough to tell that he doesn’t like troublemakers.”

Mandy scowled right then-how dare Cordy threaten her with Jay?!
