A Life Debt Repaid novel Chapter 870

Clara sighed helplessly.

She would just have to contend with the fact that all good things took time.

Zoe went downstairs and searched around for a long time before finding the children's playground.

This was a high-end estate, comprehensively equipped with all sorts of facilities.

She originally envisioned it to just be a small playground, but she knew she had underestimated it when she saw how large-scale the three-story playground was.

It was no wonder that Clara was worried that Jay might not be able to handle Yelena. If she were to run around this huge place, it was very likely that Jay might not be able to catch up with her.

Right now, she was unable to spot Yelena. She could only see Jay standing at the side of the playground, focusing on a particular spot.

Zoe walked over.

She followed Jay's line of sight and saw Yelena climbing up and down the playground like a little monkey.

"Head back first. I can look after Yelena," Zoe suddenly said.

Jay jumped in shock.

Zoe was not very pleased.

Was she that frightening?!

Jay was too concentrated on watching Yelena and did not notice Zoe.

He had also assumed that Zoe would not come anyway, which was why he was shocked when Zoe suddenly spoke.

"There's no need for that. I don't feel tired anyway," Jay quickly composed himself and said.

"Then go over there and take a seat."

There were chairs right there—did he not feel tired standing with his cane?!

"No need… or why don't we go over and sit there together?" Jay suddenly changed his mind mid-way through his rejection.

Jay choked and coughed upon hearing Zoe's suggestion.

Zoe furrowed her brows. "Is there a problem? Why are you so agitated?"

Of course, there was a problem.

There was a huge problem.

Things were almost wrecked between them precisely because of 'kinship' issues.

Richard and Yelena were certainly relatives, unless Yelena was not his child.

He had suspected that perhaps Yelena was not his biological daughter.

But now, he had no doubts about it whatsoever.

If Yelena were not his child, Zoe would never have agreed to marrying him.

She was very principled in nature.
