A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 1018
Cora said, "Me too."But in reality, she knew all her vegetables.She was the one who lived with Clara as a child and went through all manner of sufferings, from washing clothes by hand to cooking.It hurt her to think of her painful childhood in contrast to Zoe's.However, she forced herself not to show it.Nonetheless, as they strode along the farm together, they were startled to find something dashing through the fields.It was a huge black dog, and it was running straight for them!"Argh!"Both Zoe and Cora screamed—what was that thing doing there?! And it had a beastly look on its face, like it was going to bite someone!Both Zoe and Cora felt as if their souls left them.The production crew also reacted too late—before they could jump in, the dog had already leaped toward Zoe and Cora, knocking them to the ground!"Help!!!" Cora shrieked as the dog towered over her.Zoe was on the ground as well, but the dog obviously was not aiming for her.Just as it was to bring

Even though Jay tried to reach them as fast as he could, he was still the last to arrive—both Zoe and Cora had already gotten up off the ground. Bob carried Cora away, while one of the female staff helped Zoe walk.They had to get checked and get a vaccination shot for rabies.Filming was probably going to be delayed, given the situation."Zoe," Jay called out as he rushed toward her, sweating buckets. "Were you hurt? Where?""Here." Zoe simply showed him her hand instead of hiding it—there were clear bite marks on her fair skin, cutting skin and drawing blood and leaving some bruising around it.Jay's heart could get numb from the pain just then. "Does it hurt?""Yeah." Zoe nodded, appearing a little upset just then."I'm sorry," Jay apologized."It's not your fault.""If I'd stayed with you…""It would break my heart if it bit you too," Zoe said bluntly.Jay stared at Zoe, his eyes a little red as he quietly nodded.He could not carry Zoe like Bob did with his crippled

Neither Zoe nor Cora could stop themselves from crying out loud.However, while Jay was holding Zoe's hand firmly as if he would rather be the one hurting, Bob was staring at their direction too when he heard Zoe's cry.In fact, his eyes were still fixed on Zoe even though he was standing beside Cora, who kept crying out from the pain.Eventually, she had enough and called out to him quietly, "Bob."Bob turned toward her and asked in concern, "Does it hurt? Zoe was screaming murder there."Cora did not answer, but her gaze darkened further.-After Cora and Zoe's bite wounds were disinfected and bandaged, they were given a rabies shot and admitted for further observation just in case.If nothing happened, they could return to North City, where they would have another shot to complete the vaccination.Both Zoe and Cora were staying in VVIP wards, and they did not have to worry about the presence of intruders.However, there seemed to be distance between Bob and Cora even thoug

Cora's pupils dilated as she stared at Bob in disbelief. He actually wanted to break up with her? What did the years she spent with him amounted to?!"I have done wrong by you, so let's just end it here before we get married," Bob said then. "I'll explain everything to our parents about my reasons, and I'll do any PR work necessary to help you get through any difficulties you have at work.""Are you really doing this to me, Bob?!" Cora's eyes were red, and she could not stop her tears no matter what she tried.Bob hung his head. "I don't know how to make it up to you, just as I can't lie to you that I don't love Zoe anymore. All the mistakes in the past were my fault, and you can do whatever you want—I'll try to guarantee your satisfaction as much as I can.""What do you take me for! Did you think I dated you because I wanted something from you? How could you be so cruel, Bob?!"Bob simply stayed silent, because he genuinely had no words to assure Cora when he dated her just bec

"You already have my uncle, Zoe! Why would you seduce Bob too?!" Cora demanded right then.Zoe pursed her lips—Cora noticed how Bob felt toward her, just as she thought."That's enough, Cora. This is between us—don't get others involved," Bob said then, suddenly a little louder.He had behaved mildly earlier, but even that seemed to fade in an instant."You're siding with her?! I'm your fiancee, Bob! And she's a married woman!" Cora became even more hysterical, at that, unable to understand how Zoe was better than her.Why did everyone love her so much?Even her grandfather occasionally called her 'Zoe' before he died!She really had enough! "Cut it out. We're leaving," Bob said, restraining his own temper just then."No," Cora said determinedly, and wheeled on Jay. "Uncle Jay, Bob and Zoe had all of us fooled. They were—""I know," Jay said, cutting her short.Cora was left taken aback, and she stared at Jay in disbelief.He knew? And he would still spoil Zoe so much?!D

Zoe began, "Bob and I—""I don't mind," Jay said determinedly.Zoe raised her brow. "Why are you interrupting me if you don't?"Did men lie despite appearances too?Jay pursed his lips. "I just don't want you to say his name.""How is that not minding?!" Zoe exposed him mercilessly right then."I can pretend I don't know.""You're just lying to yourself." Zoe pouted.Jay, however, was fine with that—he was already perfectly content that Zoe would return to his side.Nothing mattered in comparison."I'm still going to tell you," Zoe suddenly said. Jay flashed a feeble smile at her. "Because you knew I can't do anything to you, huh?""Since when is that so?" Zoe snorted grumpily. "My life is in your hands, isn't it?""Are you sure it's not the other way round?""Why can't you ever be honest, Jay? Who's the one who kept rejecting me so hard like it would kill him to accept me, only to end up marrying me because of Yelena?! Don't you have a conscience, constantly lying like

Jay could not hold back an expletive right then, "Am I fucking dead to you, Zoe?!"He was on the verge of getting a stroke, and he really wanted to get into fisticuffs with Bob right then!Zoe simply beamed at him. "All I wanted to say was that Bob and I are clean. Nothing happened even when we were dating.""So you're regretting that now?" Jay growled through his teeth."That's not the point," Zoe replied, speechless."I already know that anyway." Jay was certainly smart enough to not miss that."You knew?"No way! She had been so close with Bob at the time that anyone would be skeptical!"When we filmed the last episode of Journey of Love, during that heart-to-heart we had with the director, you revealed that your first time was with me.""And you believe that?" Zoe asked."I did." Jay nodded.Like he said, he knew Zoe well enough—she would never lie.However, he still had to admit that he had felt pleased for a long while when he found out.He was fine with being labele

Jay apologized. "I'm sorry."Whatever the reason was, he had abandoned Zoe in the end and did not stay by her side."It's alright," Zoe replied, accepting his apology and knowing what it was about.And she was really over it too, even if she was not as carefree as she imagined for the longest time and did not understand why she allowed Jay to deflower her and abandon her repeatedly.That was until now, when she genuinely realized that the past was not as important as she believed.And because it was not, she could now tell Jay everything.In a way, it was saying goodbye to the past.Jay held her gaze in turn and quietly said, "At that time, I… was involved in a car accident." Zoe did a double take.She knew about the accident, but not when specifically."After I left that day, I went straight to the film set. The production was on a tight schedule, so it was very late when I finally left—and I was the one who told you to wait for me."Did that mean… she was the reason he go
