A Life Debt Repaid By Cheng Xiaocheng Chapter 457
A Life Debt Repaid
The two of them stared at each other for a while.
Yulia was the first to open her mouth. âItâs you, Zoe York.â
She surveyed Zoe from head to toe.
It felt as if she noticed a difference from when she last saw her.
âAre you looking for me?â Zoe remained calm and asked her.
âWho else, if not you? Or should I be looking for Bob?â Yulia said sarcastically.
The fact that Yulia appeared here meant that she knew about her relationship with Bob.
âCome in,â Zoe said, inviting Yulia in. âNo need to take off your shoes. I donât have extra slippers.â
Yulia entered her apartment and looked around. It was neither huge nor luxurious, but it was very warm and inviting.
She sat on the couch as Zoe poured her a glass of water.
She did not expect Zoe to be in an even better shape after what happened to her family.
Was it because of Bob?!
Yulia said imperturbably, âDid Bob buy this apartment?â
She was glad that Bob was the one who bought it. Otherwise, she would not have known that he had a girlfriend hidden away.
When she heard from Bob today that he had a girlfriend, she immediately went on high alert. Even if Bob refused to tell her who she was, she had to find out for herself and see if she was fit for Bob!
Marriages in wealthy and plutocrat families were never just about the couple. It could even affect the entire commercial circle.
She never expected that it would be Zoe.
She was disappointed yet relieved at the same time.
She knew that Bob had feelings for Zoe when he was younger. There was once he even cried on her shoulders, lamenting that Zoe did not love him back. She took it as campus romance and did not think much of it, though she did consider matchmaking the both of them since they were a good match in terms of family backgrounds.
But as fate would have itâ¦
âYes,â Zoe replied honestly.
It was not like she could hide the truth from Yulia anyway.
It was easy as pie for Yulia to find out who owned this apartment.
âHow long have you been together with Bob?â
âFor three to four months.â
âIn other wordsâ¦he got together with you right after that incident happened to you.â
Yulia traced back.
âSomething like that.â
âBob really knows how to seize the opportunity,â Yulia said sarcastically.
Zoe pursed her lips as she remained silent.
âI wonât approve of your relationship.â Yulia did not want to waste anymore time and went straight to the point.
Zoe expected Yulia to say that.
Now that she had nothing to her name, not even with her relationship with Nancy, she did not expect Yulia to approve of her being with Bob.
âAlthough this isnât going to sound convincing, Bob and I truly love each other. Heâll hate you if you insist on breaking us apart.â
Yulia looked at Zoe. Even without the aura of the Levines, the look in her eyes was determined, calm, and composed.
She had more poise and elegance compared to Cora indeed.
Such demeanor required time to be built up and was not something that could just come by in a matter of days or even years.
âYou grew up in the circle of wealth yourself. Between his hatred toward me and his future prospects, what do you think Iâll choose?â Instead of getting mad, Yulia counterquestioned Zoe calmly.
Zoe bit her lip.
