Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 268

Jean felt like a fool for not being able to recognize Calvin's true identity.

Thinking about her inability to see things, she followed these two guys to the restaurant near the hospital.

"You two are staying in the hospital, so it is inconvenient for you to walk far away. How about having a simple meal here? After you two will be discharged from the hospital, I will be certain to entertain you at the Four Seasons Hotel."

Calvin walked into the room with an apologetic face.

Jean remained silent and frowned her eyebrows.

On the other hand, Moore was trying to cool things down. "Don't bother. It is good to have lunch here."

Seeing Moore's sweet way of speaking to Calvin, Jean felt a fit of anger boil inside her. 'Moore, I cannot believe you are being so nice to him. I didn't think of you as an apple-polisher!'

These thoughts put her into a sullen mood. Unable to take any more, she sprang up and said, "Excuse me, I will go to the washroom."

After finishing her words, she turned around directly and walked toward the door.

Moore and Calvin looked at each other and shook their heads.

"So do I, " Moore said and got up from his chair. Something felt off and Moore wanted to make sure Jean was okay.

Calvin, on the other hand, felt a shift in Jean's attitude towards him and thought it was the best for Moore to follow her.

Moore rushed and stopped Jean who was walking with her head lowered to the ground.

"Moore? What are you doing?" She didn't know Moore would follow her hence was shocked to see his presence.

"Jean, after all, Calvin is your friend. Can you stop showing him this attitude? You may not care for him, but this behavior is bad even for a strange. And Jean! For the love of God, he just helped you."

Moore advised seriously.

Eyes wide open, Jean spoke in a threatening tone, "Why do you care so much?"

Hearing her tone, Moore was embarrassed so he tried to speak in a composed manner, "I just think that Calvin is a very good person. We are just about to have a meal together Jean, but something tells me you don't want him here. I don't know..."

"You'd better not know." Jean interrupted Moore's words not wanting him to dig further. "It's not that I'm ungrateful. I just have my own reasons to not trust him. Earlier, I was happy to have lunch with him, but now something is bothering me. It's just that..."

Without going any further, Jean stopped her speech.

"It's just what?" Now curiosity overtook Moore's mind and he wanted Jean to get it out of her system.

Sighing, Jean went on, "Recently there is a video clip circulating online. Do you know about it?" Jean stared at Moore and asked.

"I haven't seen it, but I just heard from your stepmother, it should be a very serious matter." 'Yes, indeed. The video is tearing my life apart, ' thought Jean. She just nodded and continued, "First of all, don't call that woman my step-mother. She is no one to me and I hope she made her feelings for me clear too."

Hand raised as if surrendering, Moore apologized, "OK, sorry I won't make the mistake again. Now tell me about the video clip. Is it related to Calvin?" Moore frowned sadly and asked.

"You are a clever man. Calvin was one of the people present in the club that day. His face is blurred in the viral video, but I am pretty sure someone will reveal it, sooner or later." Jean took a moment to look at Moore and continued with the story, "So, do you think it is appropriate for us to have lunch together? Lost in conversation, we won't notice anything if anyone takes pictures of us." Again, Jean looked at Moore for a reaction.

Suddenly, she noticed surprise had filled his face.
