From a second glance, the girl appeared a little familiar. However, Jay couldn’t quite remember where he had seen her. She was wearing a little pink dress, and her face was exceedingly beautiful. He had met many child actors in showbiz, but this was the first time he was seeing one as beautiful as this girl. She was so lovely, a single glance was enough for him to tailor a role for her."Daddy?"Yelena called out to him again since he wasn’t responding. Jay smiled, dropping to a crouch before her.Even if it was inconvenient to do so with the cane, he did his best to maintain level height with the girl. He asked gently, "Were you calling me, little girl?""Yes." Yelena nodded tamely, and threw herself into his arms.Jay's entire body stiffened as he felt a sensation he couldn’t quite describe…and his chest somehow grew warm.He gently pushed her away nonetheless; at that, she leveled her round eyes at him with a wounded look. "You don't like me, Daddy? Is that why you push me

Zoe racked her brains, but she simply couldn’t remember when she had ever told Yelena that Jay was her father.Still, that wasn’t important. She needed to leave with Yelena right now if she didn’ want unnecessary trouble.A waitress arrived with their food, at which Zoe promptly made up her mind. "Excuse me, but can you box that up for me?""What?" The waitress did a double take, but quickly replied, "Oh, yes, we do, but we do charge an extra fee…""Sure," Zoe said. She immediately took a tissue off the waitress to write on. "Here, this is our address." "Okay." The waitress left with the plate of food."Are we leaving, Mommy?" Yelena asked in surprise. "Yes, we are.""Why? I don't want—I want to enjoy my birthday! Bad Mommy!" Yelena immediately refused to leave, since it was a rarity to celebrate her birthday."Be a good girl, Yelena. We can celebrate at home too. I'll buy you a big cake, okay?""No, I want to celebrate with Daddy!" Yelena snapped. She quickly got off her c

Clara actually regretted doing the dishes instead of staying with Zoe at the time.She missed the opportunity to find out who Yelena's father was!And now, they were never going to make Yelena understand, even if they wanted to.Moreover, judging from Zoe's attitude, she wasn’t going to say anything to Yelena's father. Just then, Zoe's phone rang. She hesitated a while after seeing the caller, but ultimately answered. "Where are you, Zoe?" Candice asked excitedly from the other end. "What is it?""Are you done with whatever you need to do?" Candice pressed."Uh…" Zoe did not respond—experience told her that Candice was definitely asking her out for drinks.And to no surprise, Candice went on, "Come to the karaoke bar! We're changing places now.""I think I'll pass…""Whatever it is that's important to you, you have to come!" Candice exclaimed. "Mr. Parker’s still here. It won't do if you're the only one missing out. Hurry, everyone's waiting! I'm sending you the address n

Zoe quickly asked, "A-Are you alright? Should I call an ambulance?"Jay's heart rate was frighteningly fast! "I-I'm fine," Jay stammered, working hard to make his voice sound calm. "I just had a little too much to drink.""But your heart’s racing," Zoe said seriously. "You might contract something in your veins, and a blood clot in your brain can lead to stroke."Jay chuckled feebly at her words. "You really want me dead, don't you?"Zoe was speechless—that wasn’t what she meant, but whatever. She didn’t want to waste time on him; they were all adults, and it was his own business to take care of himself."Where's your phone? I'll call your assistant to take you home," she said."I think it's in my pants pocket," Jay replied, but he was not reaching for it.Zoe was speechless—a drunk person was really difficult to deal with.She reached into his pockets, but there was nothing in either of them.Was he messing with her?"There's nothing there," she said, not noticing that t

Zoe quickly left Jay's bedroom, but she must’ve walked around the apartment twice before finding the laundry room. She threw all her clothes inside and pressed the buttons…only to find that it would take almost two hours for her clothes to dry.She suddenly remembered Jay taking Bob to his house three years ago, and how Bob vomited all over him. Jay waited for two hours at the time, too. The circle of life, indeed.As Zoe stayed in the laundry room, Jay never came to check on her—he probably fell asleep right after taking his shower, since anyone would easily doze off with alcohol.It was especially true for her, since she was already feeling drowsy without getting drunk.Still, it was understandable since it was already past midnight.She yawned endlessly, and checked the time to see that it was already one in the morning. She hesitated for a while before heading to the vast living room, out of the laundry room.The view outside the glass wall was indescribably beautiful
