A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 463

Jay's throat felt parched and dry, and he clenched his trembling fists.

He saw the hopelessness reflected in Zoe's eyes, the hopelessness she felt toward him.

I find it miserable indeed, to have only loved two men in all the twenty-five years I've lived. How good it would be if I had another option to go to."

Jay tried so hard to compose himself that his whole body shook.

He said through gritted teeth, "I'll help you."

Zoe looked at him, unmoved.
