A Life Debt Repaid Chapter 454
The door was unlocked and it opened the moment Jay pulled on the handle.He saw Bob lying on top of Zoe on the floor in the room.Their posture was…very suggestive.Jay turned around in his shock.He had thought…In fact, he had no idea what he thought had happened. He simply thought that something bad might have occurred, which was why he rushed in without further thought.He really did not think that he might stumble upon such a scene."Jay!" Zoe suddenly called out.She called out to him when he was about to stride off in a hurry.Jay stopped in his tracks. "I wasn't trying to interrupt both of you…""Please come and help me out. Bob needs the washroom." Zoe panted.She was helping Bob to the washroom and just when she helped him up, he stumbled in his stupor and fell on her.She was completely unable to withstand his weight and both of them collapsed on the floor.She could almost see her life flash past her when he fell on her. She could not even get up with Bob lyi

Zoe handed Jay a glass of water. "Have a drink."Jay looked up at Zoe and took it over. "Thanks."Whenever the both of them were alone with each other, things always felt somewhat unnatural."It's getting late. Go back earlier. I'll take care of Bob. Thank you for tonight," Zoe said with sincerity.She was truly thankful that Jay sent Bob back and helped him to the washroom, wiped him clean, and got him changed."Don't mention it. Bob is my friend too.""Anyway, it's really getting late." Zoe did not want to exchange any more pleasantries with Jay.She was clearly chasing him away. Jay walked out of Zoe's bedroom toward the living room, and Zoe walked alongside him to the door out of courtesy.When Jay stepped out of the door, he turned around, wanting to tell her to rest early and show some concern.But before he could utter a word, the door shut in his face.She really did not want to see him anymore.Jay simply stared at the door before finally snapping back to reality.

"I don't care what you say. I've already agreed with Mrs. Levine on your engagement.""You're making a huge mistake.""So what if I am? You don't even have a girlfriend at this age…""But I do!" Bob declared aloud."What?" Yulia was shocked to hear that."I'll tell you the truth. I spent the night at my girlfriend's house." "Who is she?""Things aren't stable between us yet. I'll bring her back home to see you once things are more settled," Bob knew clearly that now was not a good time.If his mom were to find out that he rejected Cora because of Zoe, she would probably burst out in anger."Don't you dare pull my leg on this.""I can handle my personal affairs. Leave me alone," Bob said with a tinge of frustration in his voice. "You can handle your own affairs? Ever since you were young…""What's more, Cora isn't interested in me either. Feel free to call Mrs. Levine to verify if you don't believe me." Bob did not want to say any further. "I'm hanging up."With that, he

The two of them stared at each other for a while.Yulia was the first to open her mouth. "It's you, Zoe York."She surveyed Zoe from head to toe.It felt as if she noticed a difference from when she last saw her."Are you looking for me?" Zoe remained calm and asked her."Who else, if not you? Or should I be looking for Bob?" Yulia said sarcastically.The fact that Yulia appeared here meant that she knew about her relationship with Bob."Come in," Zoe said, inviting Yulia in. "No need to take off your shoes. I don't have extra slippers."Yulia entered her apartment and looked around. It was neither huge nor luxurious, but it was very warm and inviting.She sat on the couch as Zoe poured her a glass of water.She did not expect Zoe to be in an even better shape after what happened to her family.Was it because of Bob?!Yulia said imperturbably, "Did Bob buy this apartment?"She was glad that Bob was the one who bought it. Otherwise, she would not have known that he had a gi

She knew very clearly how obsessed people of high society were about appropriate marriages. "If the incident didn't happen to you, I would have been glad to approve of you and Bob together. I used to like you from the bottom of my heart, not just because of your family background back then, but because of your personality which I really appreciated. I'll be honest with you—Nancy Levine has been trying to matchmake Cora with my son. I've seen Cora before and truly, she's no match for you in every sense of the word."Zoe's eyes flickered.She was shocked to know that Nancy would bother matchmaking Cora and Bob.In fact, Bob was not too bad himself.He might seem like he usually played around too much, but his family background was impressive.Nancy probably thought that since Cora had just come, it would be better for Cora to have someone else aside from her own mother watching over and protecting her.Nancy was indeed thoughtful and considerate in all things for Cora's sake.Zo

Zoe looked at Yulia.She had heard from Nancy that Yulia was a strong-headed woman. Yulia looked gentle and magnanimous, but when she was forced to a corner, she was the kind that would hack people into pieces in retaliation."Zoe, I don't know how receptive you are to the many things I've said, but I hope you can think about it. Is it worth it for Bob to lose everything, even at my expense, for the sake of your so-called love?" "Why, why must you force my hand like this?" Zoe's eyes turned red. She looked at Yulia and questioned her, "Have you ever loved anyone in your life?""I have, but so what?" Yulia smiled, but tears glimmered in her eyes as she said, "He could always betray me and be with another woman. Tell me, how long can a romance stay fresh and exciting? When I first started dating Charles back then, he could stay up for three days and three nights straight just to prepare a surprise for me. Even such fervent love was unable to withstand the test of time. Of course,

Tears fell uncontrollably from Zoe's eyes as she stared at the credit card.She recalled how expectantly Bob looked this morning when he left her place.Who would have thought that the hasty goodbye they bade to each other would be for forever? Her phone screen lit up.Zoe glanced at it and saw a message from Bob. [I'll reach the latest by 8 PM tonight. I'll wash my chubby self squeaky clean and make sure I smell nice before going over.]Tears blurred her vision so badly that she could hardly make out what Bob texted her.She could only think about how excited and expectant Bob was when typing out this message… and how hurt he would be when he knew what she was about to do!Zoe wiped her tears away, picked up her phone, and ignored all of Bob's messages.Her fingers moved across the screen.She found the contact she was looking for and typed her message with trembling fingers.She typed out a long, long message.Even after a long while, she found herself unable to tap on th

Jay was stunned.He looked at Zoe, wondering if he had heard her wrongly.Things were going so well for them. Why did she suddenly want a break up?"Did…something happen?" Jay forced himself to remain calm as he asked her.But in fact, his voice was trembling ever so slightly.Zoe was not able to pick up on it, though.She was not even paying him much attention."Bob's mom came looking for me." Zoe never thought of hiding the truth from Jay.Since she decided to ask him for help, she had to be honest.Realization dawned upon Jay.He knew it. It was impossible for their relationship to have soured over such a short period.He could sense that they loved each other very much.But the moment it involved the elders of the family, things were bound to become tricky.Given the situation right now with the Davis household bent on having a marriage alliance with the Levines, Zoe was nothing but a stumbling block that the Davis family would never tolerate."Did you tell Bob?"
