    Chapter 1025


    Jay apologized. “I’m sorry.”


    Whatever the reason was, he abandoned Zoe in the end and did not stay by her side.


    ’It’s alright,” Zoe replied, epting his apology and knowing what it was about.


    And she was really over it too, even if she was not as carefree as she imagined for the longest time


    and did not understand why she allowed Jay to deflower her and abandon her repeatedly.


    That was until now, when she genuinely realized that the past was not as important as she believed.


    And because it was not, she could now tell Jay everything.


    In a way, it was saying goodbye to the past.


    Jay held her gaze in turn and quietly said, “At that time, I… was involved in a car ident.”


    Zoe did a double take.


    She knew about the ident, but not when specifically.


    ’After I left that day, I went straight to the film set. The production was on a tight schedule, so it was


    veryte when I finally left-and I was the one who told you to wait for me.”


    Did that mean… she was the reason he got in that ident?!


    An aching struck Zoe’s chest right then, and it only got worse by the second.


    Even so. Jay’s tone remained apologetic. “It happened on a mountain road when I was driving back. I


    only regained consciousness six monthster, and they told me my car crashed down a cliff.”


    He apologized, even if he did not want things to turn out that way.


    Even if he was the victim.


    Zoe’s eyes turned red even as she bit her lip.


    “Then, after I learned that one of my legs was permanently crippled, I thought about staying away from


    you.”


    ’Why?” Zoe asked him a little agitatedly-if only he hade to her…


    Maybe-just maybe-they would not have let three years go to waste.


    ’I was worried you’d scorn me.”


    ’Do I look like that type of person?”


    “You like pretty faces.” Jay exposed her right then.


    “But your face is fine. What does that have to do with your leg?”


    “I was disfigured too,” Jay exined. “What you’re seeing now is the oue of reconstructive surgery


    I hadter.”


    “What do you take me for, Jay Parker?!” Zoe huffed. “Did you really think I liked you for your face?!


    Fine, I’ll admit that you look good, but you’re not as good looking as John Levine! I never said I fell for


    him when we found out that I was not blood rted to him either!”


    And did he understand how difficult it was, being a single mother for years?!


    “That’s why I called you,” Jay said then.


    “What?”

    ’But you dropped that number,” Jay said.


    Zoe then remembered that she changed her number after leaving North City and bought herself a new


    number since she did not want anyone else to affect her.


    To be fair, she was really upset at the time.


    However, she only got more upset about that. “You would’ve found me anyway, with all the resources


    you had!’


    He gave up just because she changed her number? How was she supposed to believe that he loved


    her?!


    “But didn’t you change your number because you want nothing to do with me?” Jay asked her just then.


    Zoe was stumped, since that was certainly what she thought.


    But women could be afforded a tantrum or two, could they not? And she had her pride, too!


    After all, she thought Jay was dumping her after she slept with him.


    “Adding that to my disability, I gave up,” Jay said quietly then.


    Even now, he remembered how his heart was cut to the quick when he actually gave up on Zoe.
