Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 300 That Field-Playing Juggler

Before Jean finished her sentence, Maranda happily exclaimed with smile at once,"Jean, I knew you

would forgive me." She was happy that Jean was no longer angry with her. Jean was an integral part of

her life so it was really important for her to know that Jean had forgiven her.

With straight face Jean seriously said,"Don't get too excited. If you ever make this one mistake again,

then no matter what you do, I won't forgive you. This forgiveness is for this time only."

Maranda cutely replied in a childish way,"I promise I won't do this again. I don't want you to be angry

with me."

Jean saw that although there were tears on Maranda's face, Maranda was grinning broadly. There was

some kind of childish innocence in her.

Jean couldn't help but sigh, but she was also touched by Maranda. She knew Maranda was a really

emotional and affectionate person and she was capable of doing anything for the person to whom she

was attached.

Jean thought to herself, 'Maranda is a simple and pure girl. She has done this because she cares

about me. She was worried for me and wanted to make my life easy.

I'll just let it go. It has already happened and it's too late to stop it now.'

Maranda said,"I'm so hungry." Immediately, she was relaxed since Jean had forgiven her. She rubbed

her belly, stared at Jean and said miserably,"To hold this press conference, I stayed up late yesterday

to make all the preparation. I didn't even got the time to eat.Now I'm really happy for all that happened

but I am also really hungry."

When Maranda was staring at Jean helplessly, Jean melted and replied,"If you are hungry, just let Ron

and Calvin accompany you and eat something good. Don't stay hungry for long. It's not good for

person's health."

"You don't want to go with me?" Maranda asked Jean with her eyes wide opened in surprise. She was

shocked to listen that Jean was not considering herself to go with her. She was totally unable to

understand the reason behind it.

"I am just injected with a saline solution and I don't want to go out immediately." She was not at all in

the mood to go out. So, she made an excuse for not accompanying them. And she was hoping for

them to not insist on her.

Maranda really wanted Jean to come with them as Jean was looking as if she was in an immediate

need to eat something. Also if she came, it would mean that she really had forgiven her. So, she

suggested without thinking,"Then I will wait until you feel hungry. And then we can go out and eat

together. I am not going to leave you alone."

On hearing Maranda's words, Jean couldn't help but furrow her brow in helplessness as she didn't

know how to decline her offer.

Ron was standing next to them and he was listening to all the conversation. When he saw Jean

frowning, he understood that Jean didn't want to go out for meal. So he walked towards Maranda and

said,"Maranda, It's okay. You came here to ask for Jean's forgiveness. And I think Jean is feeling

uneasy, so you should not ask her to go out and eat with you. It would not be good for her. If you are

hungry, we can take you out for dinner."

Maranda wanted to decline immediately,"No...". She was feeling restless on hearing about all this. But

then she realized something, looked at Jean and asked,"Jean, you do not want to have dinner with us?

Something is wrong. Is that because you haven't forgiven me yet?"

Jean hastily explained,"No, no, no. Don't even think like that. I am really not feeling hungry, so I don't

want to go out to eat. And everything is fine with me. Don't worry. You guys just go ahead and have

dinner."

Calvin deeply looked at Jean with his brows furrowed while analyzing her and then he said,"Yes. I think

Jean really doesn't want to go out, so we should go out for meals with ourselves."

Since both Ron and Calvin were saying the same thing, Maranda couldn't argue with them even though

she really wanted to and was unwilling to leave without Jean.

She pouted, unhappily stared at Jean and said,"Even though you have no appetite for food, but you

should eat something. You really need something, more than us guys. What do you want to eat? We

can bring food for you."

Jean declined,"Thank you. I'm really not hungry." She smiled at Maranda consolingly and said,"As long

as you are eating more, I am happy."

After Jean said so, Maranda felt that it was hard for her to say anything more in order to convince Jean.

So finally, she nodded her head disappointingly and replied,"Okay." She was kinda feeling angry on

Ron and Calvin for not helping her in consoling Jean. She still was having a feel that Jean had not

forgiven her. Then she walked out of the room with Ron and Calvin to have some dinner.

As soon as they came out of the room, Maranda suddenly stood facing Ron and Calvin, glared at them

in anger and coldly said,"Why do you ask me to leave? Didn't you noticed that Jean was looking

terrible?"

"Maranda." Ron sighed tiredly, looked at Maranda and explained,"Obviously Jean is unwilling to go out

and have dinner with us. Do you think it's good to force her to go out? And what if she was not feeling

well? If she wanted to go with us, she would have said yes."

Maranda was dissatisfied by the explanation she heard, so she retorted irritatingly,"Of course, I know

it's not okay to do so. But I don't want to let her be copped up in the hospital room alone. She would be

feeling so lonely as she is here for such a long time with no one to accompany her in that boring ward."

Calvin reminded Maranda softly,"But don't you remember that Zed is also here? She is no longer all

alone, her husband is with her. Even though you don't consider for her, someone is still there to look

after her. So, just relax, Jean will be fine. So you better care for yourself and find something to fill your

stomach first. Currently, you are the one in urgent need of food not her."

At the mention of Zed's name, Maranda got agitated and worried for Jean, so she inquired,"Zed? That

field-playing juggler? You're expecting him to take good care of Jean? If he really wanted to take good

care of Jean, Jean wouldn't be in this situation. He is the person who is really at fault. And I know he

won't be able to take good care of her. "

Calvin was not aware of anything that had happened in the past few days, so he turned to Ron and

asked,"What happened? What you two are talking about?"

As Ron realized that Calvin was not updated about some things, he explained with a bitter

smile,"Yesterday, a woman, who grew up with Zed, came here to search for Jean. We happened to be

present there when she came. So, we heard their whole conversation. She was quite arrogant and

didn't mind Jean at all. It was her who suggested us to hold the press conference and clear out all the

things that had happened. But Jean didn't want to accept her suggestion. That's why we did the press

conference without letting her know."

Calvin obviously froze for an instant on hearing Ron's words. He couldn't believe his ears and asked,"Is

that true? It's unbelievable." Calvin was having trouble in believing that the plan of conducting the press

conference and clearing out all the allegations on Jean was of someone else.

Maranda agreed in a serious tone while folding her arms,"Yes. I can't believe this really happened."

Maranda was very indignant at that woman as she remembered the way she was talking to Jean and

how she didn't even cared for Jean's health, so she continued,"Almost from a glance, one can tell that

the woman has some kind of special relationship with Zed. The way she was talking about Zed.

Something is wrong there. Or Jean wouldn't have been so rude to that woman. Jean was very irritated

with her. Jean must have something on her. I'm sure about that."

Ron and Calvin looked at each other with understanding and then they shook head with a bitter smile

on both of their faces. They knew that their plan worked.

As Maranda was talking happily even though nobody was replying to her, they were relaxed that she

finally stopped worrying that Jean hadn't had dinner yet. Maranda was still childlike innocent and naive,

easy to manipulate.

After they left, only Jean was left alone in the large hospital ward. She felt kinda lonely. She wanted

some company with her and didn't want to stay in her ward.

She bit her finger while wandering about all that happened recently and smiled bitterly to herself.

She really wanted to have dinner with Maranda, but she had to decline her.

Because Zed and Wen Family were also in this hospital.

The last thing she wanted was to let them see that she was with Maranda, Ron and Calvin, as this

issue was related to them.

If they saw that, they would condemn her. At that time, even if she had a hundred mouths, she would This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

not be able to clear that up. It would be very problematic for her to explain all this.

Besides, she especially didn't want to meet or argue with Zed. She was not going to give any more

reason to him to ignore her further.

After he had been that hard to her, Jean was even more reluctant to run in the same circles with him.

She wanted to give him the taste of his own medicine.

However, she knew him well. These years that she spend with him were not for waste. She knew that

much about him.

He didn't want to see her, but if he knew that she hadn't broken up with Maranda, Ron and Calvin, he

would definitely interfere with her.

Knowing this clearly in mind, she really didn't want him to get something on her.

She had already been in so many troubles, so she had no time and energy to deal with other problems.

She wanted to had peace of mind to concentrate on her health which was very crucial for her.

And there was that issue, she needed to handle with Wen Family. So, she decided to meet with Henry

when Joy would not be with him and to know what Henry was thinking on earth. And what he wanted to

do further to prevent his company from downfall.

After making up her mind, Jean felt a little relax and confident.

She got out of the bed lazily and realized that she was feeling hungry, so she went directly to Moore's

ward. She wanted to have dinner with him as he was the only person there with whom she could felt

relax.

Also purposefully, she came to Moore, because she knew that Moore was unhappy when he had left

before. He was one true friend of her so she had to console him.

Jean didn't want to offend him at that time, but she had no other option other than to do something

even though she didn't want to do. It was against her will and if possible she was going to explain it to

Moore.

Jean knocked and opened the door, only to find that Moore was not in the room. She was quite puzzled

on not finding him in his ward because he was the kind of person who mostly stays in his ward. So, she

wondered, 'Did Moore go out for dinner by himself?'

She thought that he could be having dinner alone as he was angry with her, so she directly went to the

canteen.

On entering into the crowded canteen, she started glancing around. After searching for quite a long

time, she finally saw Moore, sitting alone at the corner table and having dinner. She felt quite relieved

on finding Moore as now she could make up with him.
