A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 730

"There's a bed there in the inner room. Go take a nap," Jay said.

Zoe was left staring at him and sincerely wondering if she misheard.

"You heard me right," Jay said, reading her mind just then. "Go take a nap."

Zoe bit her lip—there had to be a catch.

So what was Jay planning?

However, just as all sorts of thoughts crossed her mind, Jay got up and left without any explanation, giving her the room.

Zoe hesitated, poking her head in to see the interior of the inner room—it was not at all spacious, but it looked comfortable nonetheless.

She felt like her soul was drifting over to lie down, and she thought she would fall asleep if she put her head on that pillow… which she did.

In fact, she had actually thrown herself on that moderate-sized but exceedingly soft, clean bed. There was a faint scent of high-grade softener and nothing else.

She had reason to suspect Jay never slept here before, and it was fortunate—she might not be able to sleep if she picked up his scent on the sheets.

Feeling extra comfortable, she turned around, ready to take off her shoes and jacket to sleep when she remembered something.

As she quickly leaped out of bed and opened the door, she saw that Jay had returned after leaving a moment ago.

Most importantly, he was eating the chowder that she just ate from!

Naturally, she had scooped her portion into a smaller bowl before eating, whereas he ate it directly. It just did not help matters that he was using the spoon she used because there was just one.

Things certainly got awkward, and she really wanted to hide just then.

What could have gotten into her that she had to come out? Even if it was reasonable she remembered it and wanted to clean it up, the production crew would do it, and Jay would never have to lift a finger.

And now, Jay would obviously hold this against her, and she was going to get canceled again.

Really, she must have used up all her good luck in the first half of her existence.

"I haven't had breakfast either," Jay said awkwardly, his ears flushing crimson right then.
