Chapter 1032

Cora could not accept reality at all and was still yelling after Bob maniacally to justify herself. “I never did anything wrong! Zoe owes me that much! But now, every single one of you is hurting me!”

Yes.

She was not at fault.

They were all at fault!

Even so, Bob seemed not to hear her hysterics and left without looking back.

Cora bit her lip.

No.

She had no regrets!

She refused to regret what she did today! Never!

After leaving Cora’s ward. Jay had headed to a quiet corner in the hospital, making arrangements in an orderly manner.

Bob quietly walked up to Jay and waited in silence as he stood beside Jay.

After around half an hour, Jay finally hung up and turned to Bob.

As the men traded glances, Bob spoke first. “Sorry. I was the one who brought this on Zoe.”
