A Life Debt Repaid By Cheng Xiaocheng Chapter 167
A Life Debt Repaid
That was when Noel said hesitantly, âActually, I have an idea.â
âWhat is it?â Both Kyle and Mandy were immediately interested.
Still, Noel pretended as if she had a hard time saying it. âBut itâs unfair to my sister if we go through with itâ¦â
âYouâre still worried about her now?! Has she ever worried about you?!â Mandy cried indignantly.â She doesnât even consider you family-remember how she humiliated you and Kyle at that press conference? You canât be soft now, Noel!â
âAlright,â Noel said begrudgingly. âIâll do anything for Kyle.â
But when she told them about her idea, both Kyle and Mandy were actually stunned by it.
They could actually do that?!
Noel continued to look burdened. âD-Donât you think itâs too much?â
âHow is that too much?â Mandy quickly said. âWe have to do this because Cordy messed around first. If sheâs cheating, then weâre just returning the favor! Fairâs fair!â
Noel then turned toward Kyle, who immediately agreed to it as well. âShe only has herself to blame. We wonât have to go that far if not for her.â
âYeah,â Noel nodded somberly, looking naive as ever even though she clearly came up with this plan.
Her heart was certainly dark.
If Cordy wanted to play with her, she would only ever get humiliated.
And yetâ¦
Did John really have a fiancee?
Even if the thought of Cordy being toyed with by John left her feeling cathartic, it also meant that Noel herself stood no chance!
Noel bit her lip, deciding to watch while the situation developed.
The last round of Solo Show was finally underway, and the atmosphere at the studio was tense since it was a live broadcast.
In the final round, only three pairs would get to come out victorious.
The contestants were Cordy, Noel, and another fashion designer of mixed ancestry named Andal Scott, while the celebrity partners were Mandy, Stella Murray, and Kathy Barnes.
Of those three celebrities, Stella was the least popular and Mandy the most.
Moreover, Jessop Corp spared no expense buying popularity for Noel and Mandy. Once the program started, searches and discussion of their names were skyrocketing all over the internet-
Mandy, especially, had used her down-to-earth, straightforward maiden impression in front of the camera to push herself up amongst B-listers.
The final round of Solo Show began at 8 PM, the golden hour for reality shows.
As the host officially announced the commencement of the event, the thousand strong audience and three judges were applauding. There was another additional judge-Maron, an internationally renowned fashion designer whose name carried great influence in the fashion industry, and who had also been a judge for Sheeny Cup, the most important design competition globally-who was specially invited as well.
At the CEO office of Levine Ventures headquarters, Johnâs phone was ringing endlessly even as he kept his eyes glued on the livestream.
Naturally, it was from his chat group of four, and it had to be Bob Davis pinging him endlessly.
[Itâs starting! Here comes the bloodbath! @jayparker @johnlevine]
[Cordyâs really beautiful tonight! @johnlevine]
[Mandy and Cordy in the same group?! This will be interesting! @jayparker @johnlevine]
[Do you think Mandy will walk out of the stage?! @jayparker]
John quickly tapped out of WhatsApp since it was disturbing him, but that meant watching the livestreamâs comments screen, which was being bombarded endlessly.
[Cordy is a real jinx, staying at the edge of elimination all the way until the finals.]
[Why are we watching? Noel Sachs has this in the bag. She was the one who designed Starstream Fashionâs wildly popular autumn collection, which was exactly to my taste.]
[I call hax if Noel doesnât win!]
[Iâm backing Noel too.]

John was scowling worse by every passing second. âHow do I turn off the live comments?â
âItâs more interesting that wayâ¦â Randy Martin quickly said, but he promptly turned it off when his boss shot him a look.
But it really was only half as interesting without the comments.
âThat said, Iâm really impressed with Mrs. Levine,â Randy could not help saying just then.
