Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 216

Jean was annoyed because Eva would be with them the next day. Though Jean didn't consider Eva as a threat to her relationship with Zed any more, she still was uncomfortable with Eva. After all, Eva desired Zed. No woman would be so generous as to be friends with her rivals in love.

'Jean, how distressing your life is!

You deserve all the troubles since you are just a normal person but you got married to such a handsome, smart and successful man. That's why you have to face so many difficulties.'

Jean thought silently. She meditated for a prolonged time and picked up her phone to text Eva the destination for the next day.

"What are you thinking?" Jean sensed the familiar pleasing odor of body wash and then felt a warm touch on her shoulder. It was Zed, who enquired Jean sweetly.

"Nothing important." Jean unknowingly deleted the text that she had just sent to Eva as she turned to Zed and lifted her eyes to look at Zed. Seeing water dripping from Zed's hair, Jean said with a smile, "Let me help you dry your hair off."

After completing her words, she moved towards Zed, took over the towel from his hands and started to wipe his hair gently.

Feeling snugly, Zed slightly leaned onto Jean as he couldn't help but close his eyes as it was such a comfortable feeling and with a relaxed sigh words came out from his lips, "This moment is just what I was looking for in my whole life. Honey, help me dry my hair off every day from now on, okay?"

"Are you considering me as your housekeeper and you want me to serve you for the whole lifetime?" Jean asked in an angry tone intentionally. She was not at all upset but she was keenly interested in teasing Zed.

"That's the kinda fun couples have. You help me out with drying my hair off while I accompany you to buy food ingredients and do the household work. Isn't that nice?" Zed explained, with a sneer on his face.

"Don't we have Zelda to help us?" Jean couldn't help but laugh while shaking her head, "I know what you are doing. You still want me to stay at home and serve you, right?"

"No. I have told you before, that I am fine with you doing your work and I really mean it. I just enjoy these romantic dealings between a couple. It's really sweet." Zed described with a satisfying sigh.

"If I haven't seen your parents' love for each other, I would have thought that you grew up in a broken family. Zed, you really think distinctly from others." Jean couldn't help herself but sigh.

"Of course, who do you think I am? I am Zed." Zed suddenly held Jean's hand and exhaled slowly as he said, "Let me hold your hand and accompany you forever."

Jean was touched by his deep and sensual voice and those affectionate eyes. She had intended to tease him but now she couldn't even utter a word.

She was astonished and was falling into Zed's compassion. They looked into each other's eyes with love. It was total silence and they were so close to each other that they could hear their heartbeats. It was like time had stopped between them.

Jean was feeling overwhelmed and she was feeling her heart beating rapidly. It took her some while before she echoed in soft voice, "Zed, the biggest happiness of my life is meeting you. I love you, for all my life."

Zed's eyes were shimmering with glee. He tenderly lifted Jean's face towards himself and said in a pleasing voice, "Jean, don't you regret it?"

"I don't." Jean nodded with vigor and replied him with a firm look on her face.

"If possible, I really hope that we can start over as I want to leave you the great memory, " Zed said as he still felt sad that they didn't have a good start and all things had been messed up between them.

"Why do you want to start over?" A naughty smile appeared on Jean's face. She said teasingly to Zed, "Don't you think that it's more precious since we love each other so much now from the time we got married for family interests?"

"But people's judgement for you is not fair..." That was Zed's main concern and also the reason for which he was feeling guilty in front of her.

"It's you that I have to spend my life with, not them. No matter what people are gossiping, I just feel happy as long as it doesn't have any impact on our relationship." Jean spoke as she put on a smile and took a deep breath.

"Jean..." It could be seen from Zed's face that he was feeling emotional at the moment and was in awe. He had never thought that someday Jean's heart would be his.

"Zed, can I ask you a question?" Jean couldn't help herself since she still was feeling a little uneasy so she looked up to Zed and questioned.

"What is it?" Zed answered in a tender tone. He was not in a condition to see anything else that time, except Jean.

"If I did anything that made you upset any day and of course, I might have done it against my will, would you forgive me?" Eyes focused on Zed, Jean was expecting his answer.

"If you knew that I would get upset, then why would you do that?" Upon hearing Jean, Zed frowned and asked her with confusion.

"As I said, what if I did it against my will?" Jean placed an awkward smile on her face as she explained to him.

"You are my wife. Why do you have to do it against your will?"

Zed's eyebrows frowned even more tightly. He was not so pleased with the thought that Jean could do something to upset him and that was even against her will.

"Never mind. Just forget I even asked." Jean thought that communication was still a huge problem for them. And as they were married it should be easy for them.

He was way too arrogant.

If he found out what she had done after he met Eva, she couldn't even imagine about the consequence.

Damn!

She couldn't let Zed see the video that Eva intentionally prepared, because he would definitely go insane.

She had thought about asking Zed to forgive her no matter what she had done to upset him. However, everything went in vain.

What could she do to solve this mess?

How about telling Zed everything directly?

If she told him the truth, she would definitely get scolded by him and her all hangouts with Maranda would be forbidden. But that was the only way, by which Eva's scheme would be gone.

Jean hesitated for a while as she was in dilemma to decide which choice was better for her. In the end, she settled on telling everything to Zed.

"Zed, aren't you curious about what I did this evening?" Jean asked with a flattering smile and looked up to Zed.

"No hurry. Let's get down to business first..."

The instance Jean's words were over, Zed couldn't help but reply her and undress her at once. He lifted her up in his arms and gently put her onto the bed.

"Zed, I was about to tell you that in the evening I went to..."

Jean was not expecting Zed's reaction to be like this so she suddenly got anxious as she knew that if she didn't explain everything to him, she would definitely regret it later.

"Shh..." Zed placed his forefinger on Jean's lips in order to stop her from saying anything else. He looked into her eyes with extreme compassion and lovingly said, "Don't ruin the moment. You can tell me that tomorrow..."

The moment these words were out from Zed's mouth, he started kissing Jean all along her exquisite and soft skin with so much love and desire while moving all the way down.

Jean still wanted to tell Zed what she had done that evening even though she was already lost in his affection.

But when she woke up next morning, Zed was already gone.

No. She had to tell him the truth. Or it would be too late as Eva was going to come and she surely would tell him.

While still thinking about that, Jean forced herself to get up as she was sore all over but she still got dressed in haste before rushing down.

As soon as she stepped into the dining room, she saw that Jesse was leaning on Zed's back in vulnerable condition and that the two of them were both laughing. Jean was startled on seeing that. She couldn't believe what she had seen.

Was she still in her dream? Or that was just an illusion?

The two people in front of her looked more like lovers, instead of brother and sister.

Lovers?

As soon as that thought came to her mind, Jean's heart felt like it just got stung. Along with the pain in her heart, a chillness went all over her body.
