Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 238

Zack didn't expect Jean to be so complacent and forgiving. He paused a bit and the remorse on his face became even more evident.

"I knew that you won't cheat on Zed and flirt with other men. It's my fault. I had some wine last night, got pretty drunk and had little or no control over my behavior."

Jean, suddenly stopped whatever she was doing and the smile on her face vanished. She looked up at Zack abruptly.

Zack was going to express his anger about the events that happened the night before but when he saw the look on Jean's face, he changed his mind and said nothing.

"What did you just say? Me? Flirt with other men?" Jean's eyes seemed like they were on fire. She did not like what Zack was trying to say and took offense to it. She did not hide her anger about it either.

"Don't get mad, Jean! Didn't you just say... it's all over now?" How Zack wished he had stopped himself before causing something like this.

His big mouth had caused him much trouble since last night. He wasn't even discreet and cautious enough not to hurt Jean's feelings now.

Zack couldn't regret more for what he just blurted out. But it was too late. He could never take it back.

"Zack, tell me exactly what you have heard." Jean looked at Zack as if she was looking through him, body and soul, and ordered him in a cold voice.

Zack hadn't dealt with Jean many times, but every time he saw her, he could feel the gentleness and charm surrounding her. But now, all he could feel was her seriousness and the irrefutable dignity in her tone.

"It's just a friend of mine who had seen someone that looked like you at the club and paid extra attention. He saw you with the girl from the Qin family dating two men. So, he added some extra details to his story. And of course, the words that came out of my friend weren't nice. In his eyes, two men and two women could only be dating."

Zack explained in a low voice, looking around to make sure that no one else heard that.

"Just because he saw that we were two men and two women, he made the quick judgement that we were dating?" A hint of mockery played on Jean's face. "Then if he saw one man with another woman, like what we are doing now, is he going to say that we are dating?"

"It's, of course, not the same. You are the wife of my friend." Zack got anxious and explained, talking fast.

"Mr. Xing, now you know the feeling of being wrongly judged! I wonder if you guys are really that into gossip?"

Jean gave Zack a furious stare and left the table without finishing her breakfast.

Zack stared, tongue-tied and scratched his head as Jean made her way out of the restaurant. He then paid the bill, picked up his luggage and left in a hurry, leaving the breakfast he was having, mostly untouched.

Jean walked straight towards Eva's room, trying hard to suppress her anger.

She knocked on the door almost banging on it in fury. It was not after a while did Eva open the door. Behind it was Eva's sleepy face.

She didn't expect Jean to be standing outside her door. When she came to, and realized who it was, she was startled.

"Jean, why... are you here?" Eva asked while battling the confusion, sleepiness and panic mixing in her head.

She was obviously both surprised and hesitant.

'Has Jesse already started to carry out her plan last night?

Is that why Jean now came to me to give me some tongue lashing?' Eva braced herself.

"Eva, let me ask you. The video of that night, do you have any copy of it left?" Jean didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

"The video......" Eva's face turned pale as the thing she worried about had finally come true.

She really came to her for that.

Eva never thought that Jesse could act so fast.
