Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 214 Stalking

Maranda gave him a knowing smile. Then she followed Ron to his car.

Watching the taxi Jean took, go into a villa residence, Calvin was a little surprised. He then looked

straight ahead with his deep dark eyes, remaining motionless.

"Sir, we cannot go any further." The taxi driver kindly reminded him knowing that it would be very

dangerous to stop the car where they were. He wondered, 'Why does this well-dressed passenger

want me to follow the taxi in front of us?'

"Just stop here and wait for a moment. I'll be back soon." Calvin gave the driver 200 dollars, opened

the door and quickly got out.

Several strides later, he saw Jean get out of the taxi in front of her house. Lest Jean would see him,

Calvin hastily hid in a dark corner, furtively keeping an eye on her.

He wondered to himself, 'Does Jean live here?'

What made Calvin really surprised and more curious was that during the twenty-minute drive, he saw

Jean through the car window, remove her makeup and put on a coat at the back of the cab.

Calvin momentarily frowned, fixing his eyes on Jean.

By the gate, she looked around and sighed with relief after making sure that no one was watching her.

She flipped her hair before hitting the doorbell.

She had left the house in a hurry earlier and forgot to take the key with her.

While waiting for someone to get the door, Jean had a feeling of uneasiness.

She turned around again, and found only the bright neon signs welcoming her. 'I'm probably just

overthinking, ' thought Jean.

As the posh front gate opened, Jesse's pretty face appeared.

Seeing Jean standing outside, Jesse couldn't help frowning and asked in surprise, "Oh, Jean? I didn't

expect it to be you."

"I forgot my key." Jean stepped in with a wistful smile on her face.

"How could that happen?" Jesse murmured, fixing her eyes on Jean and then asked, "You're kind of

weird. Were you taking advantage of Zed's absence to hook up with someone?"

"What are you talking about? Oh, come on. I just went shopping with my friend, okay?" Jean rolled her

eyes at Jesse to hide her panic. Then she asked, "Wait, so you're saying that Zed isn't back yet?"

"Yeah." Jesse nodded and then muttered, "We are leaving tomorrow for the vacation planned days

ago. But both Zed and you are out tonight. And yeah, he's not even here yet. Can you at least show me

your commitment to it?"

"Don't worry. Even if the whole world fell apart, Zed would be back in time. And this weekend thing will

push through." Jean replied with a smile.

Meanwhile, just right outside, Calvin didn't step out from the dark corner until the front gate closed.

Looking at the splendid villa, a sparkle showed up in his eyes.

Jean's behavior today had definitely intrigued him.

He couldn't help getting attracted by her weird outfit, especially the way she acted and the way she

talked.

In fact, he was impressed.

However, Calvin clearly caught the panic and worry in Jean's eyes when that woman named Eva

showed up.

Although he wasn't sure what they were talking about, Calvin became more and more interested in

Jean from that moment on.

When he offered to drive her home, Jean refused without hesitation.

Her refusal confused Calvin even more, so he followed her cab without a second thought.

He couldn't stop thinking who she was and what kind of family she came from, the whole way there.

'As Maranda's friend, Jean must come from a rich family, ' thought Calvin.

In Calvin's eyes, Jean was a nice lady. Despite her quirky behavior tonight, for him, her elegance and

nobility shone through.

But he became restless, seeing Jean stop at the splendid villa. Even more so, knowing that she

actually lived there.

Although he had just returned from abroad, Calvin had already gotten a general impression of the rich

girls in H City. It was not because he deliberately studied them, but he frequently heard of them on

public occasions.

Jean Wen was also a very familiar name to him.

Calvin thought, 'If Jean's name easily comes to my mind, then she must be a very famous woman in H

City.

Is she the woman people were talking about a lot recently?' Calvin mused.

He wasn't sure, especially after he saw Jean in front of the villa.

Very soon after that, he saw another beautiful girl open the door. Calvin sighed with relief at that time.

"I may have been a little paranoid. Jean doesn't look like a fraudster. Though she happens to live in this Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

residence, she couldn't be that man's woman?" Calvin said to himself.

He let out a whoop of laughter and skipped over to the cab where the puzzled driver was waiting. They

left without much of a noise.

Was there a possibility that Calvin had known Zed?

In the villa

Jesse and Jean entered the living room together but the moment Jesse seated herself cross-legged on

the sofa for a chat, Jean ran upstairs in a hurry.

The childhood sweetheart wasn't surprised though. She was sure that Jean wanted to get out her weird

outfit and change into a normal one before Zed got back.

'I really want to know who she shopped with today. Why did she have to dress like that?

Zed will be furious if he finds out that his wife was hooking up with others.'

Jesse scoffed, getting herself some snacks at the same time.

Jean quickly took a hot shower and dried her wet hair. Then she put on some comfortable clothes and

went back downstairs to join Jesse.

Sensing that Zed still wasn't back, Jean seated herself at the other end of the sofa. She turned to

Jesse and asked, "Have you decided where to go tomorrow?"

"Yeah." Jesse replied softly, her eyes still fixed on the TV.

"Where?" Jean asked, really wanting to know.

She forced a smile and thought, 'I am asking for Eva. This is ridiculous!'

"A private resort. We can have a barbecue by ourselves and we can go fishing, go swimming and so

on. There's a lot to do there." Jesse took a look at Jean and inquired, "Hasn't Zed told you about this

place?"

"No." Jean shook her head and said, "He has been very busy with work recently, so I didn't really ask."

"Yeah, he has gotten really busy nowadays." After that, Jesse turned off the TV. Then she looked at

Jean with a serious face, "Jean, can I ask you a question?"

Jean was stunned as Jesse was being frank. She just nodded.

"How much do you know about Zed?" Jesse asked, staring at Jean.

"Not much I think." Jean replied and then said with a wry smile, "We have only been together for such a

short time, so I just know a little bit about him. I know we still need to get to know each other more."

"Then how can you not get worried since it's late and he isn't back yet? You've never asked him what

he was doing, haven't you?" Jesse asked with a look of disbelief.

"I trust him. I am sure that he can handle himself well on his own. My husband is a secure guy, isn't

he?" Jean replied with confidence. She had complete faith in her husband.

"I think you don't get what I am saying." Jesse sighed, "Men are easy to succumb to women, and Zed

is not an exception. As an excellent CEO, a lot of beautiful women are trying to win his affection. And I

mean a LOT!" She stared at Jean while making a sad face. "Although he loves you very much and

seems very determined, I am afraid that he may give in to temptation and make a mistake one day

and..."

"Jesse, I do know what you are saying." Jean didn't let Jesse finish and just smiled at her.

Although she hated hearing things like that about her husband, Jean still looked at Jesse with a faint

smile.
