Chapter 1048
A Life Debt Repaid
Her great passion was put off out of the blue.
She felt that she had given birth to a young rival in love.
When Jay heard Yelena call after him, he was about to get up.
âDonât go.â Zoe held his hand and appeared very aggrieved.
âIâll ask Yelena why she called for me.â
âShe just wants to seize you for herself.â
Jay was amused by Zoe.
âAre you jealous of your daughter?â
âYes, Iâm jealous,â Zoe admitted. âI didnât even get to enjoy some time with you. Why should I let her have you? Weâve finally resolved our past grudges, so I donât care-l want you to be mine alone now.â
âYouâre an adult.â Jay became helpless, but his eyes were full of adoration.
Her current look reminded him of the time when she was young.
For a very long time, Zoe kept a distant and cold front in front of him.
No one knew how much he missed having her following him around and pestering him to play with her.
So, he was slightly persuaded.
âDaddy,â Yelena spoke up again at the door.
âBe good. Iâll be right back.â
âNo.â Zoe was very persistent.
âZoeâ¦â
âIâll go.â
Jay looked at her.
âIâll negotiate well with my young rival in love.â.
While talking, Zoe walked to the door.
She saw Yelenaâs aggrieved expression the moment she opened the door.
Yelena looked up happily, but her happiness turned into displeasure when she saw her mother.
âIâm looking for Daddy.â
âWeâre busy at the moment.â
âWhy?â
âItâs an adult affair.â
âIs it about getting me a brother or sister?â Yelena blinked her large, naive eyes and asked Zoe.
Zoe became speechless and stupefied.
Was that what a three-year-old should know?
âIs it?â Yelena continued asking Zoe.
âI guess,â Zoe reluctantly answered.
âOkay.â Yelena behaved adult-like and compromised all of a sudden. âIf you and Daddy are willing to give birth to a brother or sister to play with me, I can stop pestering Daddy.â
Zoe smiled speechlessly.
Yelena even negotiated a term with her.
âHow long till I get a sibling?â Yelena questioned curiously.
âErâ¦â She did not know the answer either.
âCan you do it tomorrow?â
Consequently, Zoe was rendered speechless. âDo you think I can lay eggs?â
Laying eggs would take longer than that too.
âMaybe your sibling will come next year if you donât delay me now.â
âIs that tomorrow?â
âNo, but itâs very soon.â Zoe tried to explain away.
âAll right.â Yelena nodded.
âCan you play on your own now?â
âHmm.â Yelena happily turned away and left.
Zoe immediately closed the door and locked it, afraid of Yelena regretting her decision out of the blue.
She then turned around and quickly threw herself into Jayâs arms.
Jay felt pain and he fell on the bed from the impact.
âZoeâ¦â
âShush, donât talk.â Zoe blocked his mouth.
Jay looked at her.
âLetâs get Yelena a sibling.â
He thought she just made that excuse to drive Yelena away.
âJay, do you love kids?â Zoe asked.
Jay nodded.
âWell, Iâll give you a basketball team.â
Jay widened his eyes. He felt he did not like children so much now.
But Zoe smiled brightly.
She approached Jay and bit his lips before she said, âJay, Iâll give you everything you want.â
âSilly.
âAll I ever want is you.â
