A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 1258

Zoe turned toward her gift envelope, expecting not even ten percent of Jay's, and opened it right in front of Nancy.

However, Zoe found nothing inside her envelope and could blow up right then.

What the hell…

Nancy really knew how to upset her!

Still, Nancy could tell what Zoe was thinking from the latter's reaction. "Keep looking."

"For what?!" Zoe snapped, speechless. "Lint?!"

She then felt something small inside—could Nancy insult her any further?!

It had been years, but she was still so petty!

"Just take out what's inside already!" Nancy snapped sternly then.

She was not worried that Zoe would misunderstand, but she was really afraid that Zoe would be so pig-headed she would throw the envelope away.

Zoe was certainly reluctant, but she had been obedient to Nancy for years and did as she was told.

And when she did, she was stunned to find that it was not a lint but an emerald ring instead.

It also looked so familiar she had the feeling that she had seen it before…

"Your grandmother…" Nancy blurted but quickly paused to correct herself. "It belonged to my mom. She passed it to me before she died."

Zoe was shocked. "Why would you give me something so valuable?"

Nancy could die right then.

Why did she give it to her? Was that not obvious?!
