Chapter 925
A Life Debt Repaid
Zoe kept a straight face and said, âPlease take a note to prepare our nieceâs present, darling.â
She was not about to pay for it!
âRoger,â Jay quickly replied, while Cora continued to smile awkwardly.
Fortunately, Bob was smart with clearing the air as usual, and soon the little episode was over.
Soon, the yacht arrived at an isolated island.
As mentioned before, Journey of Love did not include any difficult challenges, but there were still some mini games.
The mini game would test the couplesâ tacit understanding, and the couple who did the best would be rewarded with the best lunch.
Soon, it was Zoe and Jayâs turn.
To be honest, Zoe did not believe there was any understanding between them to speak of, and was ready to have some plain soup for lunch.
The director then asked, âEveryone ready?â
âReady,â they answered together.
âWhat is Jayâs favorite food?â the director asked.
Both Zoe and Jay whipped out the same flashcard that read potatoes.
âWhat is Jayâs favorite color?â
Once again, they had the same answerâit was green.
âWhat is Jayâs height?â
Zoe did not even need to think on this one-it was six feet.
Naturally, she saw that Jayâs answer was the same.
âWhat is the color of Jayâs underwear?â
Zoe frowned-did understanding have anything to do with this?
Still, she played along in the spirit of entertainment and whipped out the white card.
Jay, however, flashed the green card.
âNo, thatâs impossible,â Zoe blurted. âI got you your underwear. Itâs definitely white.â
âReally?â Jay exclaimed in surprise. âDid I actually get it wrong?!â
âCheck it if you donât believe me,â Zoe said, and started reaching for his pants.
âHold on, Zoe. There are people watchingâ¦â Jay reminded her.
Zoe came to her senses then, while the production crew hid their chuckles.
Though she felt a little awkward, she told the director, âWhy donât you check it.â
The director cleared his throat. âFor the sake of fairness, Iâm afraid I must apologize for this, Jay.â
With that, he stood, keeping his back to the cameras while he peeked under Jayâs pants before nodding with assurance.
âYes, itâs white,â he said, and he could not resist teasing,â You didnât expect Zoe to know you better than yourself, did you, Jay?â
The production crew were grinning broadly at that, just like Jay. âIâm actually shocked, but itâs an honor.â
Under the bright sun, it seemed to paint him with a layer of mystery.
âWell, itâs your turn now, Jay. Do you feel the pressure? Zoe got everything right, yâknow,â the director joked.
âOf course,â Jay replied. âHell, I already see myself grounded when we get home.â
Everyone laughed from his joke, and Zoe was actually surprised that he was capable of humor.
âFirst question⦠What condiment does Zoe dislike?â The director asked.
Jay was left staring hesitant at the flashcards just then.
Zoe naturally did not expect him to know-she never held out much hope and told herself not to be disappointed.
However, that was when she saw him pick up the flashcard that read mountain pepper.
It was the same one she was holding.
âWhy the hesitation, Jay? A wild guess, perhaps?â the director asked for dramatic effect.
âIâm just hesitating between mountain pepper and parsley,â Jay explained. âZoe hates both, but relatively speaking, she hates mountain pepper more.â
âIs that so?â the director asked Zoe right then.
