A Life Debt Repaid

Chapter 49

Under the same moon, Zoe York was sent home to Levine Manor, looking utterly discontent.

She made a call even as she walked inside. “Quinn! Why didn’t you attend my maternal grandfather’s party with your darling Sam Poodle?”

“I’m busy-I was working overtime.”

“Why do you slave for the Saunders, really? Do you think Sam would be grateful? He has so many women on the side!”

“I’m not doing it for Sam. It’s for myself.”

“You’re stubborn.”

Zoe strode up to the second floor and nonchalantly opened a door, holding her phone between her cheek and shoulder while she reached behind to unzip her gown.

She had to take off the uncomfortable gown, but just as her zipper reached her waist, the bathroom door swung open.

Jay Parker stood frozen at the doorway.

Zoe panicked for just a split second, but she soon pretended she saw nothing and continued to undress calmly while continuing to speak into the phone. “Either way, Sam doesn’t deserve your sacrifice.”

“I know.”
