Chapter 85
Mandy’s mood soured even further at the mention of Jay Parker. The thought of him directing her commercial, especially after she had just overheard Zoe’s name being mentioned, only made her more irritated. Jay had always been known for his professionalism, but Mandy couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy whenever she heard his name tied to Zoe. The two had a history—one that Mandy didn’t want to revisit.
She glanced at the assistant director, trying to mask her frustration. “Fine. Let’s get this over with,” she muttered, adjusting her makeup in the mirror. She hated how much of her career now felt like a series of missed opportunities, but Zoe always seemed to steal the spotlight. That endorsement deal with Starstream was just the latest reminder that she was no longer the center of attention.
Meanwhile, Cordy was at home, still puzzling over her conversation with Zoe and the strange tension between the two women. It wasn’t just the director’s call that caught her attention; it was Zoe’s reaction to it. The way Zoe had downplayed it, almost as if she was purposely trying to distance herself from Jay. Could there be more to their relationship than Cordy had initially thought?
But Cordy didn’t have time to dwell on it. Her phone buzzed with a message from Vince, reminding her of a meeting with the PR team later that day. The announcement about Zoe’s endorsement was still generating a lot of buzz, and they needed to capitalize on the momentum.
While Cordy had always been level-headed, the recent success of Starstream’s fashion line had left her with mixed emotions. It was a victory, yes, but it also brought with it new challenges. She couldn’t shake the feeling that Kyle’s frustration would only intensify as Starstream gained more attention.
As she prepared to head out for her meeting, Cordy’s mind kept drifting back to Zoe and Jay. The entertainment world was a web of rivalries, and Zoe, despite her carefree demeanor, was clearly navigating through a maze of complex relationships. Cordy didn’t know what was going on between Zoe and Jay, but she was determined not to get caught up in their drama.
After all, Cordy had her own battles to fight—and she wasn’t about to let anyone, even a former fiancé, stand in the way of her success.
