A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1036

Zoe looked at Jay in turn, her heart racing for some reason.

She began to tense up, as she suddenly had this feeling that Jay had been hiding a lot from her.

She just had no idea what it was…

Jay turned back toward the journalists then.

They had been getting restless again a moment ago but were once again tame like a puppy, even keeping their breaths silent as if worried that Jay would stop talking if they disturbed him.

He certainly had everyone on tenterhooks, but the man himself remained calm and unhurried.

He said, "As everyone would be aware, I was adopted into the Levine family by Alan Levine. However, the truth is…"

Jay gulped.

It was a very well-hidden secret that only Alan and his biological mother knew, but he eventually found out.

The ever-intelligent John found out later as well, and eventually the whole family.

And now, the entire nation would as well…

Even so, Jay's voice remained even. "I am Alan Levine's illegitimate son."

"What?!"

All the journalists present exclaimed in shock, while Zoe was obviously stunned as well.

She was left staring at Jay in disbelief—it never crossed her mind that Jay was actually Alan's own son and not adopted!
