A Life Debt Repaid novel (John and Cordy) novel Chapter 864

The moment Cora figured out what that meant, her heart jumped.

No.

She could not let the Levines' assets end up in Jay's hands. She could not see Zoe leading a better life than she did.

She had suffered for so many years in order to end up with what she had today. What right did Zoe have to take back everything she had eventually?

"Acknowledge me? Did he acknowledge me as his son?" Jay sneered. "If he did, why did he keep me by his side as his adoptive son? He brought me back simply because there was no one else to take care of me, simply because having one more mouth to feed was nothing to the Levine household. To the Levines, having me around was no different from having a dog!"

"That's enough, Jay!" Nancy could not bear to hear more.

She would not allow Jay to say that of her father.

"I think it's quite enough too." Jay looked coldly at Nancy. "I've had enough since many years ago. Now is a great time for us to make a clean break."

"Do you really want things to go so far for Zoe's sake? We are the only family members left in the Levine family. Can you really not care about us?!"

"I'm not the one who wants things to go so far—you are!" Jay refused to compromise.

"Fine, Jay." Nancy did not want the argument to go on any longer, "Since you want to sever ties with me because of that woman, I have nothing further to say. I hope you'll never come to regret your decision today."

"I never will!" Jay said bluntly.

Nancy gritted her teeth as she said to Cora, "Let's go. Take it that I never came here!"

Jay looked on coldly as they left.

Nancy slammed the door heavily, the loud bang of the door an outlet for her to vent her anger.

Nancy was wild with rage.
