Crises in Love (Zora and Jaylan) novel Chapter 202

After hearing the conversation between Jaylan and Zora, I was frankly speechless. It seemed Zora was truly devoted to Jaylan.

I turned to Clara, my face full of confusion. "How did they do it? Wasn't the kid supposed to be in summer camp? The police checked the surveillance and found nothing unusual. How did she manage to take him away?"

Clara gave a wickedly enchanting smile, her eyes concealing a chilling mystery.

A cold dread filled me, and a thought emerged unbidden. Clara was not to be pitied; her heart was filled with darkness, ready to pounce and tear into me.

Clara smiled faintly. "The only way to catch someone off guard is through love, right?"

"Jaylan?" I asked incredulously, "You mean Jaylan played cover?"

"Don't you believe me?" Clara asked, her smile unwavering, "Once he made up his mind, does the method really matter?"

I couldn't help but shake my head, my thoughts inevitably turning to my own children.

Jaylan was their father! A chill ran down my spine.

With a hint of schadenfreude, Clara continued, "Don't forget, Jaylan is Evan's father. He certainly has ways to take him away!"

"But I thought Zora was the one who took action?"

"Yes, it was indeed Zora! Jaylan didn't show up!" Clara confirmed with a nod.
