A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 459

Zoe looked at Yulia.

She had heard from Nancy that Yulia was a strong-headed woman.

Yulia looked gentle and magnanimous, but when she was forced to a corner, she was the kind that would hack people into pieces in retaliation.

"Zoe, I don't know how receptive you are to the many things I've said, but I hope you can think about it. Is it worth it for Bob to lose everything, even at my expense, for the sake of your so-called love?"

"Why, why must you force my hand like this?" Zoe's eyes turned red. She looked at Yulia and questioned her, "Have you ever loved anyone in your life?"

"I have, but so what?" Yulia smiled but tears glimmered in her eyes as she said, "He could always betray me and be with another woman. Tell me, how long can a romance stay fresh and exciting for? When I first started dating Charles back then, he could stay up for three days and three nights straight just to prepare a surprise for me. Even such fervent love was unable to withstand the test of time. Of course, I'm not doubting the love between you and Bob. I just want to remind you that if your romance is eventually doomed to fizzle, do you really think Bob wouldn't regret choosing you? Choosing you and giving up everything he has?!"

Zoe bit her lip.

She had no idea—all she knew was that she did not want to leave Bob right now, and she was also sure that Bob would not leave her.

Otherwise, Yulia would not have come looking for her directly and instead gone to Bob to deliver her ultimatum.

But Yulia was right.

Many years later, would Bob really have no regrets giving up everything just to be with her? Or would Zoe regret being the cause of Bob having nothing to his name and even having all his family and friends leaving him?

She knew very clearly how it felt like to be betrayed by family and friends.

She would never forget how it felt to be abandoned by her very own kin.

"I'll come here to see you again tomorrow. Before you think things through, I hope you won't tell Bob about our meeting."

With that, Yulia stood up to leave.

She was a woman of the world, familiar with the circle of wealth.

There was no need for her to drag her feet out in doing things.

"I'll leave Bob," Zoe suddenly said.

The moment she did, tears fell from her eyes.

Yulia turned to look at her.
