A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 826

Moreover, it had been several days since Jay had an actual rehearsal with his group of thespians, so time was short.

And yet, he suddenly just upped and vanished, which left everyone bemused.

It only caused further confusion when he asked everyone to rehearse until past 8 PM before leaving.

What was this abuse of authority?! The man walked out on them but denied them the chance to slack off too?!

Even Zoe, who knew Jay for years, could only say that he was just behaving very weirdly today.

But it was not like she could tell what he was intending anyway.

Eventually, it was 7 PM—Jay was ready to send Yelena home after playing with her for an entire day, though not before buying her a grand feast.

Yelena was doleful when they returned to the car, however, and she asked Jay, "Can we see each other again, Daddy?"

"Of course?"

"When will that be?" Yelena asked.

"Hmm. I'll be busy the next few days. Once I'm done, I'll come get you, okay?"

"Okay. I'll be waiting for you, Daddy," Yelena said seriously.

"Yeah."

"When will you move in with us, Daddy?" Yelena then asked.

'Huh.'

That was not a question he could answer—he had no idea what Zoe had in mind, nor was he a hundred percent sure that Yelena was his.

After all, Zoe used to date Bob too…

However, Jay did not care.

In fact, he could accept Yelena, no matter who her father was.

Still, he was concerned that Zoe would not acknowledge him.

"Okay." Clara nodded, feeling that there was history between Jay and Zoe.

And given Zoe's refusal to let anyone find out about Yelena, it probably meant that she refused to accept Jay as Yelena's father!

"My number was the one I called you with this morning, so please save it. I'll call you again when I meet Yelena next time."

"Yeah."

"Well, it's late, so I shan't impose."

"Daddy, are you leaving already?" Yelena appeared utterly reluctant to see him go.

"Yes, but I'll come see you again when I'm less busy."

"I love you, Daddy." Yelena did not forget to declare that again.

"Me too," Jay replied with a gaze of utter tenderness.

After Jay left, Clara could not help asking Yelena, "How did you manage to reach Mr. Parker, Yelena? Was that why you asked me to get his number yesterday? Are you sure he's your daddy?!"
