A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 782

Jay quickly offered, "I'll take you home."

Zoe immediately declined. "It's alright. I can just take a cab."

"That'd be inconvenient. You're quite famous now."

"I just need a disguise."

"Just wait a moment. I'll get changed," Jay insisted, not giving her a chance to refuse.

"You're a cripple and you can't drive. How are you going to take me anywhere?" Zoe said bluntly, and Cora was stunned by her insulting outburst.

How could she say cripple on a whim? No one around Jay ever said it for years!

"I can go back on my own," Zoe added determinedly, not caring about the looks others were giving her.

"I can give you a ride," Bob suddenly said. "I happened to bring my car."

Cora was slightly irked, since it was her boyfriend who would be getting in a car with another woman.

However, Bob simply continued, "Cora, wait for me here. I'll be back to take you and Jay once I've sent Zoe home."

Then, turning towards Zoe without waiting for anyone's approval, he told her, "Come on."

With that, Zoe quietly left with Bob.

She could turn down anyone but him, since she owed him the most.

Cora was staring as they left the apartment together, wondering if she noticed something unusual or if she was just imagining it.

Bob had always treated her well over their three-year relationship. Yet, she had a feeling that he didn’t pay her that much attention.

He would do anything for her and give her the world if she asked; yet, if she said nothing, he wouldn’t lift a finger.

And yet, here he was, offering to send Zoe home.

"Don't worry. There's nothing between them," Jay suddenly said bluntly.
