Chapter 927
A Life Debt Repaid
The director then turned to Jay. âWhat about you, Jay?â
Zoe turned away from Bob by then-she was actually a little curious as to when Jay popped his cherry too.
Eighteen? Twenty-three? Or maybe earlier?!
Hell, he probably would not remember.
And yet, at the very next second, Jay answered calmly, âThe same day as her.â
Everyone was left stunned by his answer, let alone Zoe.
Zoe was already twenty-five at the time, and it almost seemed implausible for someone in showbiz to stay chaste that long. However, she never did get caught in any scandals and it was believable.
But Jay was already thirty at the time!
He had to know that with so many people here bearing witness, this was inevitably going to make the final cut.
He definitely would not go so far as to lie in this situation!
Jay clearly saw the surprise on everyoneâs faces too and explained nonchalantly, âCanât help it. I chose to restrain myself after I decided to wait for a certain person.â
âDoes that mean youâd fallen in love with Zoe early on. Jay? Perhaps when she first debuted in showbiz?!â
âIf I may be so boldâ¦â Jay smiled enigmatically. âIâd say itâs earlier than that.â
âYou mean-â
âThat was the last question, director,â Jay said, suddenly cutting him short. âIâm afraid weâll have to charge extra for more questions.â
The director groaned in regret right then-he fell for Jayâs trap!
âWell, since itâs over, can we have our lunch now?â Jay asked.
âSure.â
Jay and Zoe left, heading to the gorgeous restaurant to enjoy their gourmet lunch.
âArenât you afraid that someone would expose you?â Zoe suddenly asked.
âAbout what?â Jay replied as he peeled a shrimp for her.
âYou told them that you popped your cherry with me,â Zoe said, feeling a little awkward that she had actually put it to words. âThe production crew would definitely include that part to bring in viewership, so arenât you worried someone would come forward to prove that you lied? Theyâre willing to do everything for clicks these days, so anything can really happen when it comes to showbiz. You canât fool everyone.â
She was certainly worried that a scandal involving Jay would affect her career in turn, since their fates were now tied.
âIâm not afraid,â Jay said and placed the peeled shrimp on her plate.
âAre you really that confident?â Zoe was not that cheerful, since there was no bottom showbiz folk would not sink to these days.
Moreover, they would not be lying while they garnered interest. What was not to like?!
âBecause I did pop my cherry with you,â Jay replied.
Zoe was munching on the shrimp when she fully paused.
Jay returned her gaze and said, âChew, or youâd choke.â
Zoe regained her senses and kept chewing.
Naturally, she was not convinced, and once she finished the shrimp, she asked, âI know all too well women flock around you-that fashion model you were swapping spit with at Levine Manor, and Mandy Jessop, whom you announced to the public you were dating. Also, now that weâve mentioned Mandy, sheâs only getting roles in soap operas these days and has no chance of hitting the big time, so isnât this the perfect chance for her to seize some attention?!â
âNo chance,â Jay said flatly.
Zoe was left staring blankly at him, suddenly a little unsure about the man.
Why would he save himself? It did not make sense at all!
And it was not like he was impotent-she knew that better than anyone!
