Seriously, How Did He Win My Heart novel Chapter 736

Jean went back to pack her stuff at dawn when most people were asleep including Arthur.

Arthur had no idea she would avoid him like that as he expected her to return in the morning. He always woke up at around seven, and the first thing when he woke up right after his eyes opened was to call Jean for breakfast.

He called but found that her phone was turned off. Arthur suddenly sat bolt upright in bed with bad feelings. He didn't want to believe that Jean would leave early in the morning just to avoid him, but that seemed to be the fact.

Arthur kept calling her while putting clothes on and went out to knock on the next room's door, but there was no answer either way.

Holding back the sadness and despair, he called to check with reception at the hotel and was told that Jean checked out earlier.

Arthur sank into the sofa in his room with mixed feelings.

"You...really don't give me a chance? Not even the slightest one."

When they were having sex yesterday, he murmured in her ear over and over, "I love you, Jean."

She responded well then so that Arthur thought she believed him, but it turned out that she didn't.

Arthur was the golden boy growing up but was truly pathetic when it came to Jean for the first time in his life. Her leaving without saying goodbye that time crushed him, and the avoiding made it even worse.

Arthur texted Phil, "Am I really that terrible?"

Emelia was in labor and Julian stayed with her in hospital nervously while Ezra was a mess himself, so Phil was the only one Arthur could talk to.

Phil texted back quickly, "Jean hurt you again?"

Arthur didn't reply.

Phil knew what happened, he called Arthur, "Hey man, you'll get used to it. It's just the beginning. You can also quit if you can't handle it. Of course, there is plenty of fish in the sea. Some girls at my law firm like you, they are all hot..."

Phil was in mid-sentence when Arthur hung up the phone. Apparently, Arthur didn't want to hear anymore and it seemed that he was obsessed with Jean.

Arthur got up and took a shower in the bathroom which made him quite sensible after that.

Now that Jean has left him, there was no need for him to stay in Grafstin, so he checked out and went to the airport.

"Emelia is due to give birth in a few days. Jean will definitely come to Riverside City to see her. I might as well wait for her there."

Although Arthur really wanted to go find her, he knew where to draw the line. Showing up now would get him rejected again.

At the airport, Arthur met David who was also going to return to Riverside City, but they didn't talk. David clearly didn't want to have anything to do with Arthur concerning Ezra.

While waiting in the VIP lounge, Arthur sat beside David, and said carelessly, "Your sister had a son but his last name is not Cantillo. This should be the best revenge for Ezra's father."

"You probably know how much he wants a grandson. He has two daughters with his wife and those illegitimate daughters. Ezra is the only son."
