Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 235 Who Would Be The One To Blame

"Alright, I'm gonna tell you all that I know."

Said Eva, looking at Jesse firmly. She had decided to confess to her.

Nodding with satisfaction, Jesse couldn't help putting a smile on her face. She took out her cell phone

to record everything for proof.

Eva sighed. Seeing Jesse's tricks reminded her of herself in the past.

"But, before we do that, let's talk about a few conditions. I won't tell you until you agree to these terms,

" said Eva in a serious tone coupled with a firm look.

"No problem. As I've said before, I would agree to any condition you have, " replied Jesse with no

delay. She was determined to make Jean leave Zed at any cost.

Two hours later, with a smile on her face, Jesse felt really content. Looking at a paled Eva, she tried to

act properly by patting lightly on her shoulder, "Don't worry. Just have faith in what you have said. And I

promise, I will keep my end of the bargain."

After that, Jesse walked outside in a brisk pace, with her cell phone in her hand.

Looking at Jesse's silhouette disappear in the distance, Eva couldn't help clenching her fist, her eyes

brimming with tears.

'Jean, I'm so sorry.'

Try as she might, even by covering her face with her hands, Eva could not stop the tears from falling.

After eating and drinking her fill, Jean lay on the couch in a cozy position. She was about to have a

rest.

The door of bathroom swung open and a cloud of steam gushed out, and out stepped Zed covered

only in a towel around the waist. He walked towards Jean slowly, with his thick, broad chest glistening

with moisture from the shower.

"Aren't there wounds on your body? You shouldn't have taken a shower. I can imagine how unbearable

the pain must be. Even if you were a clean freak, you should not have taken the risk to take a shower

now. What if your wounds become inflamed when water gets into them?"

Looking at the multiple bruises all over his upper body, Jean couldn't help worrying. Taking out the

medicine box in a hurry, she motioned him to sit beside her and started to apply the medicine carefully.

"How can the wounds become inflamed when I'm with you?" replied Zed, in a careless tone.

"What are you talking about? I'm neither a doctor, nor the medicine for your wounds." mumbling to

herself, Jean just focused on dealing with his wounds.

"Actually, you are much better than any medicine for me." answered Zed. Scratching her nose slightly

with one of his fingers, Zed looked at Jean lovingly.

Jean looked up at Zed and found that he was in a much better mood after the shower.

Stopping suddenly, she inhaled deeply, looking serious. "Zed, I have something to tell you."

"What?" asked Zed, looking at her confused.

"I lied to you about what happened last night." Summoning enough courage, Jean looked at Zed with

anxious eyes.

'No matter what others might say to Zed, or whatever gossip he would hear, I must tell him in person, in

case of any misunderstandings about what happened last night.'

"What did you lie to me about?" Zed looked at Jean in the eye. For a second, there was a flash of

irritation in his eyes, but it soon vanished.

Jean thought she was imagining at the moment and couldn't help rubbing her eyes with her hands. Zed

was still waiting for her reply with his eyes fixed on her. Jean couldn't help but sigh, "Well, I wanted to

tell you before, and then...... The truth is that Maranda had a blind date last night, and I went with her."

"A blind date?" repeated Zed, continuing to gaze at her with his deep eyes.

"Yes! I really don't understand rich families like you guys. Maranda is so young, and she is now pushed

by her family to go on blind dates. She did not want to turn her family down, so she asked me for help."

said Jean, with her head nodding.

"I see. Why did she turn to you? Did she ask you to go to the blind date for her?" asked Zed, slightly

frowning.

"No, of course not! She just asked me to make trouble during the date, to ruin it." said Jean, with a

proud look on her face.

"So, you mean to say that, it has been destroyed successfully by you, is that right?" asked Zed, looking

deeply at Jean with a complex look on his face.

"Yes! It is hard to describe, but one of the guys that Maranda was on a date with got so angry at me

that he couldn't even speak a word. It was fun though." She could not help laughing at the thought of

her actions last night, when she was deliberately making trouble. However, she did not want to upset

Zed so she tried to hold back her laughter.

Unfortunately the trigger had been pulled. When she was about to laugh heartily, she saw Zed's face This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

suddenly turn gloomy. Her smile froze. With an awkward look on her face, she asked, "Zed, what's the

matter? Are you mad?"

With his eyes fixed on her, Zed said in a serious tone, "You just did exactly what Maranda told you to

do. Jean Wen, are you insane? How could you ruin the blind date of others?"

"Why did I do that? What do you think? Maranda hates blind dates like this. As her colleague and her

friend, why can't I do her a little favor?" replied Jean, in a defensive tone.

"A little favor? Do you know who she was going on the blind date with? What is his identity? If he were

just an ordinary guy, do you think the Qin family would take the time to arrange the date with him?

Besides, you did Maranda a favor to chaperone her on her blind date. What are you gonna do if the

guy had a crush on you instead? Once it comes to light, all of them, it doesn't matter if it's the Qin

family or the others, would get really really mad at you. And you'll be their cannon fodder, the one to

blame, for a longtime. Have you thought about that?"

Said Zed with an unhappy look on his face.

Jean couldn't help widening her mouth out of surprise as Zed enumerated every possibility. Her jaw

dropped until her mouth seemed to be big enough for an egg.

Jean was frightened by what Zed had said. The powerful CEO made a good point. Looking at his angry

face, she asked in an anxious tone, "Oh my gosh, what am I supposed to do? I did not expect it to be

so complicated. I wouldn't have lied to you if I had known about it……"

Jean was burning with anxiety at the moment, looking at Zed sheepishly.

"Just take responsibility for yourself." Thinking about what might happen in the coming days, Zed

became anxoius as well, with his face paler than before.

'Things had gone out of control.

Otherwise it would not be seen or known by others. Some of the curious guys had called Zack to scout

for more information.

Those who love gossiping, may have already talked about it in private!

It is only because they are afraid of me and what I may do if I lost my temper, that there is no gossip in

front of me.'

But the picture remained grim. Zed still couldn't help feeling concerned.

He regretted both Jean's and his carelessness.

"Zed, what do you think I should do?"

Jean went closer to him sheepishly, and asked once again. She had become much more anxious not

having Zed's immediate reply.

"What do I think? I think you can only pray that none of my previous assumptions will come true, or

you'll have no other choice but to prepare yourself for everything!" After these words, Zed turned his

back on Jean, avoiding looking at her pitiful face.

Jean was frightened as Zed talked about the serious consequences. But seeing him refusing to offer

help and his angry face, she couldn't help putting on a resentful look.

She could only whisper to herself, 'Maranda Qin, you really got me in trouble this time.'

By mentioning Maranda's name, Jean's eyes suddenly lit up as if she thought of an idea. In a hurry, she

took out her cell phone, and made a call to Maranda.

Almost immediately, someone picked up. There came the yawning voice of Maranda, "Hey, Jean, how

come you are calling me so late? What's up?"

"Come on, Maranda, I can't believe you are still in the mood to sleep right now. Just tell me, did Ron Qi

get in touch with you after the date last night?" asked Jean in a worried tone.
