Cora's pupils dilated as she stared at Bob in disbelief. He actually wanted to break up with her? What did the years she spent with him amounted to?!"I have done wrong by you, so let's just end it here before we get married," Bob said then. "I'll explain everything to our parents about my reasons, and I'll do any PR work necessary to help you get through any difficulties you have at work.""Are you really doing this to me, Bob?!" Cora's eyes were red, and she could not stop her tears no matter what she tried.Bob hung his head. "I don't know how to make it up to you, just as I can't lie to you that I don't love Zoe anymore. All the mistakes in the past were my fault, and you can do whatever you want—I'll try to guarantee your satisfaction as much as I can.""What do you take me for! Did you think I dated you because I wanted something from you? How could you be so cruel, Bob?!"Bob simply stayed silent, because he genuinely had no words to assure Cora when he dated her just bec

Zoe began, "Bob and I—""I don't mind," Jay said determinedly.Zoe raised her brow. "Why are you interrupting me if you don't?"Did men lie despite appearances too?Jay pursed his lips. "I just don't want you to say his name.""How is that not minding?!" Zoe exposed him mercilessly right then."I can pretend I don't know.""You're just lying to yourself." Zoe pouted.Jay, however, was fine with that—he was already perfectly content that Zoe would return to his side.Nothing mattered in comparison."I'm still going to tell you," Zoe suddenly said. Jay flashed a feeble smile at her. "Because you knew I can't do anything to you, huh?""Since when is that so?" Zoe snorted grumpily. "My life is in your hands, isn't it?""Are you sure it's not the other way round?""Why can't you ever be honest, Jay? Who's the one who kept rejecting me so hard like it would kill him to accept me, only to end up marrying me because of Yelena?! Don't you have a conscience, constantly lying like

Jay apologized. "I'm sorry."Whatever the reason was, he had abandoned Zoe in the end and did not stay by her side."It's alright," Zoe replied, accepting his apology and knowing what it was about.And she was really over it too, even if she was not as carefree as she imagined for the longest time and did not understand why she allowed Jay to deflower her and abandon her repeatedly.That was until now, when she genuinely realized that the past was not as important as she believed.And because it was not, she could now tell Jay everything.In a way, it was saying goodbye to the past.Jay held her gaze in turn and quietly said, "At that time, I… was involved in a car accident." Zoe did a double take.She knew about the accident, but not when specifically."After I left that day, I went straight to the film set. The production was on a tight schedule, so it was very late when I finally left—and I was the one who told you to wait for me."Did that mean… she was the reason he go

Jay looked at Zoe in turn and said solemnly, "Me too. You're the only one I ever loved."The love in his eyes was all too obvious."Then… Have you never loved anyone else before?" It was not as if Zoe doubted Jay—in fact, she was dead sure that he loved her, at least now.But was he really abstinent before too? Did he really only fall in love at this age?!"Be it in the past or the present, the only one I love is—"Jay was suddenly cut off by the ringing of his phone.Zoe frowned.The mood between them was just perfect! Who could have such poor timing to interrupt them right now?!She was predicting that things would get even more spicier than before tonight and was naturally a little annoyed.Still, Jay answered his phone after hesitating for a moment—it was Ruby Jones, producer of Journey of Love.And they were in showbiz, so courtesy was necessary."Hello, Ms. Jones." Jay greeted Ruby politely."Are you still in the hospital right now, Mr. Parker?""Yes, we are.""Ho

"Are you really not worried at all?" Zoe asked Jay. "I mean, we really did lie to the public, and that's going to stick! Our careers will suffer from this permanently…"Zoe was seized with further panic the more she spoke, especially since she was the reason for all this.If it was not to save her reputation, Jay would never have publicly announced their marriage.And now, she was dragging him down with her.She was fine with anything that came her way, but Jay would now suffer with her…"Don't worry. I can handle this," Jay said, even giving her an assuring look just then."But…""Just rest. I'll make some calls, set up an arrangement.""What are you going to do?""You'll know soon enough.""You're keeping it from me?""Just didn't want to worry you.""I'm already worried." Zoe huffed. "The more you tell me not to, the more I'm panicking here.""Be good now," Jay said, patting her head. "Believe in your husband—believe that he can protect you."Zoe felt a warm sensation
