A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 1223

Zoe stared at Jay and Yelena, her eyes welling with tears of emotion.

She really wanted to weep, for the sight of them before her was the most blissful moment she had ever seen.

"Mommy," Yelena called out to her in her soft voice as she held out the bouquet with her little pudgy hands.

Zoe could not stop herself as more tears welled in her eyes.

"Why are you crying, Mommy?" Yelena asked in confusion. "Shouldn't you be happy you're marrying Daddy today?"

"I'm not crying, I just..." Zoe was choking on her tears, unable to explain herself.

"Daddy was crying too," Yelena suddenly said.

Zoe was left stunned, while Yelena round cheeks curled into a grin. "His eyes were red like yours, and he told me he wasn't crying when I asked, just like you, Mommy. You're both so funny."
