Chapter 1036
Zoe looked at Jay in turn, her heart racing for some reason.
She began to tense up, as she suddenly had this feeling that Jay had been hiding a lot from her.
She just had no idea what it was…
Jay turned back toward the journalists then.
They had been getting restless again a moment ago but were once again tame like a puppy, even keeping their breaths silent as if worried that Jay would stop talking if they disturbed him.
He certainly had everyone on tenterhooks, but the man himself remained calm and unhurried.
He said, “As everyone would be aware, I was adopted into the Levine family by Alan Levine. However, the truth is…”
Jay gulped. novelbin
It was a very well-hidden secret that only Alan and his biological mother knew, but he eventually found out.
The ever-intelligent John found out later as well, and eventually the whole family.
And now, the entire nation would as well…
Even so, Jay’s voice remained even. “I am Alan Levine’s illegitimate son.”
“What?!”
All the journalists present exclaimed in shock, while Zoe was obviously stunned as well.
She was left staring at Jay in disbelief-it never crossed her mind that Jay was actually Alan’s own son and not adopted!
She had always presumed that Jay tiptoed around everyone in the Levine family because he was adopted. She just did not expect Jay to be Alan’s own son while she was really the one who had no biological relations to that family!
She suddenly remembered how she always mocked Jay for being the Levines’ lapdog…
Oh, the disgrace!novel.ebook.com
Nonetheless, Jay remained calm and composed. “I’m sure everyone is curious why I would suddenly reveal this secret. After all, everyone kept for over thirty years, and it’s unnecessary at this point! Don’t worry, I’m not trying to drown out my own scandal with this secret-however, this secret is the reason why a relationship started budding between myself and Zoe.”
The journalists quieted down again, seemingly infected by Jay’s composure.
“Now that I mentioned it, the tales one could uncover from Levine Manor are legendary. I always thought myself adopted, while Zoe was Alan’s granddaughter, related by blood. The tables have really turned since then…”
Jay chuckled as he said that-fate was not without its irony.
“Hold on.” One journalist stopped him. “Zoe York was Alan Levine’s granddaughter? Don’t you mean Cora Levine?!”nvëlx.o
“Yes. Zoe used to be Alan’s granddaughter, but it’s now Cora,” Jay said bluntly. “Everyone in the Levine family certainly believed Zoe to be part of the family until Cora showed up, and the truth was unveiled. If I may ask, would anyone here disagree that Zoe bears a strong resemblance to Cora?”
The journalists started to whisper among each other in discussion.
The press had certainly commented how Cora resembled Zoe when Cora rose to stardom in showbiz, seemingly appearing out of nowhere.
However, such articles or content would immediately disappear soon after they were published. Also, since Cora’s career was rising to new heights every other week while Zoe disappeared from showbiz entirely, no one mentioned that ever again.
‘ It’s a saying that what happens in the family stays in the family… but if they hurt those who matter most to me, I won’t hold back either.” Jay’s expression turned grim as he spoke bluntly. “And the truth is, Zoe and Cora share the same father but have different mothers-lvan York had a daughter with another woman who wanted revenge against him and switched Zoe and Cora while they were still infants since they were born at almost the same time.”
“In other words, Nancy Levine raised Zoe in Levine Manor for twenty-five years until an accident revealed her true identity and Zoe was forced out of the family. That was the same day Zoe suddenly disappeared from showbiz, and every creative work she was involved in had in turn been taken off the shelves.”
“Only the Levine family is capable of that… At the time, that is!”
