Seeing Jesse's doubt, Eva continued, "Did you not see? Zed gives a cold look every time I am near him. He is always angry when I talk to his wife. Under this circumstance, it is hard for me to talk to Jean. You can check my phone to see if I am cheating you or not. I really hate it when you look at me like I am some sort of liar."
Eva threw her hands up in the air to show she gave up.
Jesse continued to inspect Eva in order to see if she was lying. After a few minutes, Jesse looked relieved like she trusted Eva.
"I really hope you are speaking the truth. Otherwise, I will not spare you." Saying this, Jesse left from the spot leaving Eva behind.
Eva waited for Jesse to leave before she propped herself against the wall tired of her charade.
'That was a close call, ' she sighed.
If she had not sent the video to Jean and deleted it then, she could have gotten into real trouble.
Lucky for Eva, Jesse left without getting any proof.
Eva hurried to turn on the mobile phone and started deleting videos related to Jean. 'Who knows, Jess might check my phone again, ' she thought.
Oblivious to this, Jean walked along the river and enjoyed the scenery by the riverbank. Crystal clear river and green grass put her into peace. She watched flowers swaying due to the wind.
Feeling elated, she helped Zed prop up a parasol, took out a chair and prepared the fruits and drinks on the portable table.
Once she was finished, she put on her sunglasses and rested comfortably on the chair. Zed took out the fishing pole and cast the fishing line into the water.
Looking at Zed's sexy back and his sculptural face, Jean felt she was the luckiest girl alive. 'How did I make this guy fall in love, ' she thought. Happy tears started accumulating in her eyes.
"Jean..." Zed waved on noticing her stare.
"What's wrong?" she asked but realized he couldn't hear here. Jean got up from the chair and walked closer. She then repeated, "What's wrong?"
"Take a look at the pole for me. Tell me when it moves." Zed clapped on Jean's shoulder while he said that.
"Okay." Jean nodded her head like an obedient child. But suddenly she felt something weird and asked, "Watch the fishing pole? What will you do then?" she stared at him questioningly.
"I need to take some rest. We better share out the work and cooperate with each other." Zed winked at Jean and walked towards the comfortable chair.
Jean was petrified. 'I should stay here and look at the finishing pole for him?' Jean thought while she stomped her feet.
Jean lifted the corners of her mouth into a demure smile and hurried around to see Zed.
She found he was lying on the chair cozily, with a pair of sunglasses on his face. 'Stole my spot, ' she thought with irritation.
After giving it a thought she realized Zed needed rest. Without trying to create problems, she stood watching the fishing pole like a good wife.
Shortly afterwards, Jean heard footsteps behind her.
Jean didn't have to turn around because she had detected the person by her footsteps.
She became nervous and pretended like she was busy with the finishing pole.
"Zed..." As expected, it was Jesse walking towards Zed. Jean stiffened on hearing Jesse's voice.
At first, Jesse felt insulted for not getting a response, but soon asked herself, "Could he be sleeping?"
The sunglasses made it hard for Jesse to see his eyes. Jesse redeemed herself thinking, 'Zed will definitely respond to me if he is awake.'
