Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 136

Jean comforted herself over and over again before she walked towards Zed's ward.

As soon as she walked into the ward, she saw that Zed was staring at her with his smiling eyes, but he didn't say anything though.

That was not Jean's first time to see Zed act that way after he was ill.

She felt that Zed had already changed his attitudes after he had been ill.

His eyes were full of tenderness and affection. Zed looked so gentle and really enchanting.

Jean felt that her cheeks turned hot again when she had thought about that. Her face clearly showed that she felt awkward. After a while, she walked towards Zed's bed and took a glance at him.

Zed liked to make fun of Jean. He noticed that Jean's face flushed every time he gently and attentively gazed at her. Jean acted anxiously when he looked at her. That was sweet and charming.

Jean was so restless and bewildered that she didn't know where to look after she saw Zed's fiery and affectionate eyes.

She just looked everywhere except at Zed's direction. When she saw the bowl and the thermal kettle on the table, she walked towards it and began to put the things away.

After Zed saw that Jean was busy doing that, he stopped her hastily and said, "Don't bother. The nurse will come her later to put those things away."

"That's fine. I will do it quickly."

Jean would rather find something to do than to directly look at Zed's face. His eyes were really alluring her. They made her heart beat rapidly and her flush.

She was afraid that she might not be able to resist Zed's temptation. It would be very shameful if something strange happened between the two of them inside the ward.

In addition, Zed was still ill and had not fully recovered yet.

"I am sure that you have met Selena. Aren't you curious about why Selena was in my office?"

Zed spoke to her apathetically.

After Jean walked out of the ward, Zed seized the chance and called his secretary over the phone to ask what had really happened in his office that day.

Just as he expected, Jean didn't disappoint him.

"Selena?"

When she heard that name, Jean stopped what she was doing. Then, an odd expression suddenly appeared on her face.

"It was you who mentioned that woman. It wasn't me!"

Jean turned around, looked at Zed and stood still there waiting for his reply.

Zed didn't care when he noticed that Jean was still trying hard to pretend that she didn't care about what happened at all. Yet, deep in heart, she badly wanted to know the truth.

Zed cleared his throat and teased her, "Okay. I am going to have a rest now. It seems like you don't want to know why Selena was in my office."

"Wait! Why was she there? I want to know the truth." When she saw Zed's drowsy look, Jean immediately replied without hesitation.

However, she felt so regretful after she said that. She felt dejected when she found out that Zed had been struggling hard not to burst into laughter.

'Damn it! You were just teasing me.' Jean thought.

"I don't care. I'm not interested about why Selena was in your office." Jean grunted like a kid. She turned her back on Zed and continued what she had been doing.

Zed didn't change his ridiculing face until he found out that Jean was getting angry. After a while, he seriously said, "I invested in a movie several days ago. Selena was the leading actress in that movie. You knew that, right? "
