Chapter 921

Their first destination was a coastal city.It turned out that there were a total of five couples for this season of Journey of Love, and everyone would only gather once they arrived at the destination.Naturally, the production crew had kept everything under wraps, and none of the participants knew who the others were until they actually met.That was why Zoe only found out that Cora and Bob were taking part as well after she actually saw them.They certainly run into each other too often, but she did not let anything on since they were in front of the cameras. Cora naturally hated Zoe so much Zoe thought she would kill her the instant they met, but somehow she acted like they were close. "Hey, Zoe! What a surprise, you and Uncle Jay were taking part too?"Zeo naturally played along. "Yeah, I'm surprised too. The production crew's been keeping everything from us, so I didn't know who the others were."They appeared almost intimate, while Bob and Jay shared a smile of tacit und

Jay leaned in to kiss Zoe on the lips again before quietly leaving, content.He then spent three long hours making one soup and three dishes, and while it did not look good, Zoe woke up when she smelled the fragrant aroma.She was too hungry and had not eaten for almost a day.As she sat up, Jay asked her, "You're up?""Yeah," Zoe replied, stretching. "Are you done?""Yeah. See if you like it."Zoe sat in front of the dining table, staring at the food that hardly looked appetizing."Let's make do for now. I'll visit the other couples tomorrow and learn from the best." Jay clearly saw Zoe's look of aversion. Zoe, however, said nothing and took the knife and fork from Jay to start eating.She might have been really hungry, since it did not taste as bad as she thought."How is it?" Jay asked nervously."It's okay." Zoe did not hold back her praise."That's good," Jay replied, heaving a sigh of relief. "Thanks, darling," Zoe suddenly said."It's my honor to be praised by my

Chapter 923

Zoe did not sleep well because she was really not used to Jay hugging her in her sleep, and so firmly at that.She could even feel his breath spraying over her nape. It was hot, and it tickled.Frustratingly, he was sleeping perfectly fine and kept holding her the entire night without moving, while she listened to his breathing assume a regular rhythm.Zoe was a little miserable at that.She had been worried that Jay would be the one to expose them, since he had always been distant to her. In fact, she was scared that he would push her away when she hugged him earlier.To think that he would get into character more than she did… Sighing to herself, she did her best to coax herself to sleep.She was naturally unaware that the man feigning sleep behind her opened his eyes just then and tightened his hold further.-The next day, Zoe was jolted awake by her alarm clock.They were supposed to go out to sea at seven, and she therefore had to wake up at six to put on makeup for

Zoe suddenly remembered that she had to do her makeup, and she quickly said, "I need to get my makeup then, and we're already running late. Let me go…""Zoe," Jay said, tightening his arms around her and showing no inclination to release her."Jay," she growled in annoyance.Forget being groggy just now—he was now clearly wide awake, but he was still not letting her go?!Suddenly, Jay leaned close to Zoe's eyes and whispered, "Actually, I think I…"His voice was very soft, and it was definitely just the two of them who could hear it.Zoe's face blushed right then, suddenly feeling awkward."I didn't expect this to happen," Jay finished apologetically.Zoe had no idea what she should say just then.She could not tell him that it was weird, since it was arguably his body functioning as intended and not his fault. And yet, she could not tell him that it was natural either—he was a grown man, not some pubescent kid! "Just let me go for now," she said while keeping herself calm

Zoe kept a straight face and said, "Please take a note to prepare our niece's present, darling."She was not about to pay for it! "Roger," Jay quickly replied, while Cora continued to smile awkwardly. Fortunately, Bob was smart with clearing the air as usual, and soon the little episode was over.Soon, the yacht arrived at an isolated island. As mentioned before, Journey of Love did not include any difficult challenges, but there were still some mini-games.The mini-game would test the couples' tacit understanding, and the couple who did the best would be rewarded with the best lunch.Soon, it was Zoe and Jay's turn.To be honest, Zoe did not believe there was any understanding between them to speak of, and was ready to have some plain soup for lunch.The director then asked, "Everyone ready?""Ready," they answered together."What is Jay's favorite food?" the director asked.Both Zoe and Jay whipped out the same flashcard that read potatoes."What is Jay's favorite col

At this point, Zoe would have to say yes even if it was not the case… but Jay was right anyway.When it came to condiments, she hated mountain pepper and parsley, but it still puzzled her—she never had either anyway, so why would Jay know that she hated mountain pepper more?Was it a wild guess?Or perhaps…She did recall taking part in a gourmet show and mentioning offhandedly about her stronger dislike for mountain pepper if she had to choose between the two.Did he happen to watch that?The man was so busy, but he had the time to sit through some pointless TV show?!"Second question. How old was Zoe when she made her debut?""She was eighteen years, three months, and fifteen days old," Jay answered without hesitation this time and without raising any flashcards.The director did a double take. "That's… awfully precise.""Yeah.""Let me check," the director promptly whipped out his phone to check, since the answer he had was just up to eighteen years.He had to cross-chec

The director then turned to Jay. "What about you, Jay?"Zoe turned away from Bob by then—she was actually a little curious as to when Jay popped his cherry too.Eighteen? Twenty-three? Or maybe earlier?!Hell, he probably would not remember.And yet, at the very next second, Jay answered calmly, "The same day as her."Everyone was left stunned by his answer, let alone Zoe.Zoe was already twenty-five at the time, and it almost seemed implausible for someone in showbiz to stay chaste that long. However, she never did get caught in any scandals and it was believable.But Jay was already thirty at the time!He had to know that with so many people here bearing witness, this was inevitably going to make the final cut.He definitely would not go so far as to lie in this situation! Jay clearly saw the surprise on everyone's faces too and explained nonchalantly, "Can't help it. I chose to restrain myself after I decided to wait for a certain person.""Does that mean you'd fallen in

And since Jay could get hard, why was she the only woman he had been with after so many years?He certainly was not in love with her—at least not in the past, or he would not have kept rejecting her advances."Would you like to know more?" Jay asked, clearly noticing her confusion."Nope," Zoe refused.While Jay pursed his lips in turn, Zoe said coolly, "Your past has nothing to do with me.""Yeah," Jay replied—there was no erasing how much he had hurt her in the past, nor did he deserve her forgiveness.Nonetheless, he said, "My future will be in your hands."Zoe was at a little lost for words, genuinely feeling that Jay had changed so much she did not know him at all now.Was this all thanks to Yelena?-Over at the capital, Cordy and Sean were getting restless because their quarry was not making a move at all.Sean began to have doubts about their plans too."Maybe it's not easy to make a move in the hospital? To be fair, no one can do anything with all the cameras watch

Sean no longer hesitated at that point and did as Cordy suggested, summoning every Cranston to gather outside the ICU unit where 'Jesse' stayed.Then, he announced, "Grandfather is getting discharged in half an hour. We've called you here today to see him off.""You're telling us now?! You could have told us earlier." Paul was obviously upset."What's the difference if we'd told you earlier or now?" Sean asked. "Do you have some special preparations in mind?""What preparations can I manage?!" Paul snapped in annoyance. "You weren't this impulsive before, Sean—don't you remember how you've always planned and considered everything before deciding? Why do I have this feeling that you changed too much after you became chummy with Cordy?"Cordy turned toward Paul then—the man never liked her, and it did not sit well with him that Jesse had been spoiling her ever since she was brought back to the Cranstons. In fact, she first suspected Paul to be the one who poisoned Jesse, but now,

Paul was starting to get furious and was unable to sit still. "Why isn't Fred back yet? Where the hell did he go?""Should I go check?" Linus—Paul's son—asked."Just call him. Going in and out would just irritate us more," Paul told him.Linus promptly whipped out his phone to call Fred. "Fred, Dad's asking how much longer the checkup would take. And why aren't you coming back?""Stomach ache. I needed the restroom," Fred replied. "I'm coming back soon.""How's Grandfather?""Sean said he'll be done soon and told everyone to rest easy.""Okay."Linus hung up, and relayed Fred's message to everyone.Paul rose to his feet impatiently right then. "I need a cigarette.""I'm coming with you." Linus followed him to the smoking area, although it was just one glass door between them and the VIP lounge.Cordy texted Sean again at that: [Uncle Paul and Linus are in the smoking area. Neither are making phone calls.]Sean replied: [Got it.]And with that, everyone waited for ninety mi
