A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1133

Chapter 1133

John was calm, a stark contrast to Zoe’s agitation.

“I am both Lucas Lynch and John Levine.”

Zoe took a long while to reflect on those worse until she finally understood. She sprang up from Jay’s lap in excitement, clapping her hands as she cried, “I knew you were you, but Cordy doubted me! I mean, after living with you for years, I’d recognize you even if all that’s left of you were bones!”

John was speechless-Zoe never learned how to hold her tongue even after years.

“By the way, what’s it with you? Why did you fake your death? What are you doing here at the hospital? And what’s with that emergency surgery? Was it something serious?” Zoe rambled on, asking a ton of questions.

Still, John answered every question she had, and Zoe felt patience from him for the very first time.

It was as if his temperament changed after his ‘death’…

After he was done, Zoe muttered to herself and recounted everything. “So, you’re saying that you survived the explosion after Jessica Stuart blew up the ship and were rescued unexpectedly… only to be shipped abroad. The people who saved you just happened to have a son who recently died, so they altered your face to resemble him, which was easy since you two share some resemblance.

That was why no one questioned your real identity?”

“It’s just been a few years, but you’re smarter now,” John commented.

“I’ve always been smart!” Zoe snorted grumpily.

John smiled faintly but did not argue.

“Well, did you tell Cordy?” Zoe quickly asked. “Wait, I just remembered-didn’t you marry Nana Lynd? Do you know what happened to her family?”

“Cordy knows.”

“What?!” Zoe was flabbergasted.

Used to that reaction from her by now, both John and Jay stayed exceedingly calm.

“So she’s been hiding it from me all this while? And she also knew Jay was sneaking around for…” Zoe muttered to herself.
