A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1030

Cora was biting her lip.

Yes, she was the one who leaked the news.

To be precise, she had asked her mother to do it.

She had lost her head when she returned to her ward and texted her mother endlessly, saying things like Zoe had stolen twenty years of her life and was now messing around with Bob. She insisted that Zoe was intent on messing with her and had every intention to make her life miserable!

For Nancy's part, she already owed Cora a lot, and Zoe was the symbol of her humiliation. In fact, she already had trouble abiding with Zoe's presence before, but she never made a move as she was worried about provoking Jay.

But once Cora ranted to her over the phone, all hell broke loose.

It took just ten minutes for the bombshell about Jay and Zoe's marriage to reach news headlines.

Be that as it may, Cora was now afraid after causing such a huge mess.

In fact, she had no idea why she was scared of Jay, but she always had been cowed by him.

Maybe because Jay helped her on her rise to stardom, or perhaps she actually knew where Jay's strength lies, she earnestly admired and respected him, which was why she always tiptoed around him.

"What are you talking about?" Bob asked Jay in disbelief.

He knew that Cora could get jealous, even narrow-minded.

However, he believed it was understandable for Cora to feel inferior and insecure. After all, she was only brought back to Levine Manor when she was past twenty and did not actually grow up in high society.

It did not cross his mind that Cora would actually do something so petty.

"Read the news yourself," Jay told Bob since he did not have the time for him, and he continued to snap at Cora. "I don't know if I can still forgive you and your mother now, and this is way beyond the limits of my tolerance. You two can do whatever you want now, I don't care."

And with those words, he turned to leave.

He did not actually come to throw a fit, nor did he come to demand that they rescind the leak—no one could be nice when they were in such a terrible mood.
