Chapter 1040

Jay then continued, "Somehow, destiny granted me yet another boon-the fine gentleman was forced to break up with Zoe because of family reasons ... or perhaps it would be more accurate to say Zoe did not want him to be caught in a difficult situation, which would lead to him being disowned like she was.
