Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 245

"You care about me? How dare you say that you care about me after doubting the relationship between Jesse and I? Are you testing me? Jean, tell me, where do you put me in your heart and how do you think of me in your heart? Can't you feel my love for you? How many times do I have to tell you that I love you before you believe me? Is your heart cold? I have also told you repeatedly that I consider Jesse to be my sister. I can understand that you want to test me. But you could have used any other woman except Jesse. Why did it have to be her? And why can't you understand? Jean, you are insulting me by doing so."

Zed's eyes were burning with anger as he screamed at Jean.

What a silly woman to ruin their romantic holiday! Zed was no longer in the mood to stay with Jean.

"Sorry, it is all my fault." Upon seeing how angry Zed was, Jean was startled. She instantly regretted her actions. Her expression conveyed the guilt and grief she felt. She turned to Zed and apologized, "I shouldn't have doubted you. What's more, I shouldn't have tested your love for me. Zed, I promise you that I will never do this again. Please don't be angry with me. I am begging for your forgiveness."

As the last few word came out of Jean's mouth, her voice began to tremble.

Jean felt quite worried about what she had done. What had spurred her to question Zed about the relationship between him and Jesse? She had known that this was a rather sensitive topic and she should never have brought it up.

Zed glared at Jean expressionlessly. But deep in his heart, he sighed. Jean's doubting and testing had really enraged him.

He was not only annoyed at Jean's mistrust, but also at Jean's doubts regarding his relationship with Jesse. He considered his sibling-like relationship with Jesse as pure. But by putting forward allegations that Jesse felt otherwise meant Jean was thinking of their relationship to be a dirty one.

However, Zed could not blame Jean for her actions. He was aware that although Jean had not asked any questions the night before, what she had seen might have scarred her.

So he thought, 'After all, it was my behavior that made her mistrust me.

In this sense, I shouldn't blame her.'

When he heard Jean's trembling voice, even though Zed was enraged, the anger he felt immediately dissipated.

He stopped packing and looked at Jean. As he studied her expression, Zed realized that she was genuinely remorseful. He sighed and said, "Jean, you know that I got angry only because you didn't trust me."

"I know. That's why I promise you that I will never do it again." Jean was hopeful when she saw that Zed was finally willing to talk to her. She didn't want to prolong the fight and so, she hurried to explain herself.

"Think from my perspective, Jean. If I hadn't trusted you before, I would have questioned you time and again on the rumors that almost ruined your reputation. And how do you think our relationship would be if I had questioned you? Do you think that we would have such an intimate relationship like we have now? Would we be so in love as to plan intimate holidays here? Never. So my trust in you is absolute. I have never believed comments from outsiders and then doubted you.

I hope that you can trust me just like I trust you. After all, people will always gossip. And neither you nor I can control what they say. But it is up to you and me to decide whether we trust each other enough to believe in what they say. As long as we genuinely trust each other, no matter what others have said, we will never doubt each other, and remain the most important person in each other's hearts. That's all I want. What do you think?"

Zed said in a gentle voice. His looked at Jean tenderly.

"Zed..." Jean's eyes immediately turned red, and she jumped into Zed's arms. She sobbed as she spoke, "Sorry. I will always trust you and be on your side."

"That's good. I hear you and I feel like you are being sincere. And I hope that you will actually do as you say in the coming days." Zed reached out to caress Jean's beautiful hair.

"Yeah. I will prove it to you." Jean, who had buried herself deep in Zed's arms, nodded. She had a panic attack after the quarrel between them. She never wanted to feel like that again.

The two hugged each other tightly. The room was so silent that they could only hear each other's breaths.
