Chapter 1134
Zoe was really capable of making someone fall apart in an instant.
And right then, she said smugly, “You now have to address me as Aunt Zoe.”
John took a deep breath, clearly a little annoyed.
Even Jay had to be impressed with Zoe-rarely was anyone capable of leaving John bristling with just a few words.
Nonetheless, Zoe remained serious, “You should seize your chance-you still have a few months, so don’t blame your Aunt Zoe for not warning you now. Just give me a head’s up when you’ve made up your mind, and I’ll help.”
John rolled his eyes and ignored Zoe, whereas Jay hid a smile nearby.
He should have brought her to meet John if he knew she would liven things up like this.
It was certainly awkward when silence ensued between two grown men, especially since said silence could stay an entire day.
But with Zoe around, awkwardness and whatnot was nonexistent.
As such, Jay often brought Zoe with him to the hospital ever since the first visit.
She certainly was not as cold as she appeared-in fact, when they headed home after the first visit, she suddenly clung on to Jay and started crying tears of joy.
She just did not like to show emotions around others, and in that sense, Zoe had now fully accepted him as her better half.
And Jay was certainly content with that.
A month later, John was finally discharged.
Having taken a while to recover, his current facial appearance did not appear from his old one.
