Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 144

Ethan hurriedly raised both of his hands and seriously swore to Jean.

From his voice, Jean noticed that Ethan had finally realized that it was impossible for them to be lovers again. She finally felt relieved and wore more gentle facial expression. Then, she nodded and replied in a soft voice, "Yeah, sure. We can still be friends."

Though she accepted Ethan's plea, Jean clearly knew that most lovers couldn't treat each other comfortably after they broke up. Jean couldn't offer more to him but friendship.

That moment, she had no choice but to try to appease Ethan temporarily. After all, they would slowly become strangers again.

She was very clear that Ethan would absolutely estrange her first as long as he wouldn't do anything to try to win her heart again.

Jean had been hurt by that ruthless and merciless man.

After he heard Jean's reply, Ethan suddenly smiled and happily said, "Jean, I didn't expect that you would still forgive me. Thank you, Jean. I will love you as what I did before even if we can't be together anymore."

No. He would surely treat her better than before.

He didn't know how important Jean was for him until she had become another man's woman.

'Just forget it!' Jean thought to herself.

When she heard Ethan's confession, Jean turned him down politely. "Ethan, just get over me."

After she finished speaking, Jean restarted the engine of her car and hurriedly drove forward.

'She better send Ethan back as soon as possible.

Wasn't Jean aware of what Ethan was thinking and planning?'

Ethan was very excited all their way back to his house. He was just talking about his wonderful moments with Jean.

Jean could not bear to hear what he was talking about. Yet, she was still trying hard to show a smile on her face.

Finally, they arrived at Ethan's place. Ethan immediately got out of the car.

Jean felt much more relieved at the moment. As she thought about being away from that man and going back home, her mouth gracefully curved and a smile eventually rested on her face. Then, she immediately drove towards Zed's villa.

Jean hurriedly walked towards the door after she parked the car.

When she was about to step into the living room, she heard low-pitched voice that said, "Why did you come back so late?"

Jean immediately looked up after she heard the voice. Then, she found that Zed was idly pressing the remote control while sitting on the sofa.

Zed had just taken a bath. His hair was damply clinging on his head and was still not dry yet. Zed looked so handsome and charming with his straight and smooth hair that time.

'He is very charming!'

While he was fantasizing about Zed, Jean's face flushed. After a while, she hurriedly gave the hen to Zelda. She didn't walk towards the living room until she took a deep breath.

"Why aren't you resting inside your room?" Jean sat beside Zed. She randomly picked up an apple and started peeling it.

"I can't sleep. I have gotten enough sleep." Zed raised his eyes and turned his face to Jean. Then, he said, "You still haven't replied. What took you so long to buy the hen?"

Jean paused for a while. After a few seconds, she smiled and immediately said, "I went to a big market. It took me some time to choose the biggest and fattest hen."

Jean originally planned to bring out the truth to Zed and tell him that she happened to meet Ethan in the market.

However, since nothing bad happened, she changed her mind. She didn't want Zed to worry about her.

Besides, she had thought about the time when Zed treated her coldly because of her relationship with Ethan.

"Next time, just ask Zelda to buy it! Oh! I nearly forgot about it. Sonny called me just now and asked me why you didn't go to work."

"Oh, my gosh! I forgot to call my boss to ask for a leave."

Just before Zed could finish his words, Jean abruptly yelled. She felt really shocked that she accidentally cut the back of her hand with fruit knife. A trail of blood slowly dripped over her hand soon after.
