A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 1125

Zoe kept staring fixedly even as Jay stepped out of the shower, convinced that something was weird with him.

Jay felt the creeps from her stare, but there was no question that he was bad at lying, and it would have been better if he had stayed quiet.

To stop Zoe interrogating him,he quickly said, "I ran into Cordy yesterday. She just returned to town."

"What?!" Zoe exclaimed in surprise, distracted in an instant.

"Didn't she contact you?" Jay exclaimed in surprise.

At the same time, he prayed that Cordy would not skin him for this since he had no other choice.

"That woman!" Zoe was fuming in turn—Cordy rarely returned, but she never said a word, let alone contacted Zoe!

Was she not Cordy's best friend?!

Huffing, she whipped out her phone and called Cordy, while Jay heaved a deep sigh of relief from the close shave.
