A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 327

Chapter 327

John was not stingy with his praise. "That's very smart."

Cordy blushed for some reason, feeling as if John was treating her like a kid just then, and she was not used to talking to him like this.

Changing the subject, she said, "You told me over the phone you'd tell me about Zoe. So?"

John scowled slightly, but said, "I didn't want to tell you because you can't even protect yourself right now, but I'd never dare hide it from you."

Cordy bit her lip, a little speechless from the way he used 'never dare'.

He really was petty.

"Anyway, Zoe had an accident at the film set last night, and she's at the hospital right now..."

"What?!"

"Don't worry. She's safe although it was a little serious, just a little liver rupture causing massive bleeding. She has since regained consciousness, and she'll be discharged in a week."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Cordy exclaimed a little angrily just then. "I could keep her company at the hospital."

She certainly remembered that Zoe had always been an earnest friend, showering her with all the kindness and affection she could give.

How could she do nothing now that Zoe was in trouble?!

But despite her rising indignation, John quickly told her to calm down." There's no rush-let me finish. Because of said massive bleeding, my family found out that her blood type is AB.'

"So?" Cordy frowned.

"My aunt and uncle both have type A blood."

Even so, Zoe was a person, not some object.

And people have feelings!

Zoe had been with the Levines for years and loved John to bits.

Did he not feel sympathy at all?!

John stated his perspective just then, "Right now, my aunt is still very much upset, and the conflict would only escalate if I helped Zoe right now. The best solution is to let the situation cool off until my aunt calms down to better resolve the issue. At the very least, I won't allow Zoe to lose everything."

"That's your own arrangement-do whatever you want," Cordy said, unable to care any less. "You have no right to stop me from meeting Zoe."

"I admit that this is selfish of me, but I don't want my aunt to consider you an enemy," John explained. "Right now, she isn't letting anyone near Zoe or any form of assistance get to Zoe. If you see Zoe now, your situation would only get worse, especially with your trial coming up."
