In just one night, Jean felt his indifference to her again. She was getting hurt again and again by Zed. Continuously, her heart was making her to believe in one thing after the other, which were not supporsed to happen. Thus her heart was broken up every time.
She dismissed the idea of going out for a stroll. Instead, she walked back into the ward with decadent sentiment and feeling her heart aching to the core.
Now she was trapped here, trapped in that place, surrounded by unknown people.
She started running her mind and realized that, actually, she had no idea about where she would go after a week.
Qi Mansion?
Would she any longer be accepted there after all that happened recently and that too because of her?
The Qi Group was in trouble, and Jesse was less likely to leave! She would not leave Zed alone.
Plus the scene that she had witnessed last morning, 'After that Jesse and Zed must be doing something intimate. They did get a lot of time alone together.' Jean thought.
From just a thought of that, she felt a pang of sadness and hollowness in her heart. No matter how much she tried, she was not able to neutralize herself from the pain.
She could not help covering her face with her hands to hide her miserable look. She was feeling restless as well as helpless, wishing for some ray of hope for Zed.
'Jean Wen, why are you so shameless?
You are still having an illusion about Zed?
If he really considered you as his wife, he wouldn't have let Toby leave when you needed the protection most. He didn't even visit you once in the hospital.
Isn't it obvious now after everything he did?
Why don't you give up?'
Jean blamed herself for a long time until the sunlight shone through the window. She took a deep breath, opened the door and strode out. She wanted to loosen her mind from all of her terrible thoughts.
She went to Moore's room, knocked the door and on hearing his welcoming voice, she opened the door to enter.
It seemed that Moore was awake for a long time. He was reading the newspaper in bed.
He was surprised to see Jean there in his room, but he asked her with a smile, "Jean? How are you feeling? Did you sleep well last night?"
"Yes, I slept very well." Yesterday, she slept soundly throughout the night, maybe because she didn't had a good sleep the night before and that's why, yesterday, she was exhausted and dizzy.
If Toby didn't have left this morning, she would be in a good mood. But now she was feeling irritated and annoyed on everything.
"That's good." Moore gestured to Jean to take a seat, and then said apologetically, "I wanted to have dinner with you last night, but my attending doctor arranged an EEG examination for me. It was too late when I came out from there. I thought you might be sleeping, so I didn't bother you..."
Moore felt a little embarrassed and the top edge of his ears were turning a little bit red.
'Last night?'
Jean flashed an gloomy look towards Moore as she was feeling empty in her heart.
Yesterday, too many incidents happened, and they made her forget about Moore totally. The moment, she realized that, she felt kinda guilty.
"Never mind, we can eat together today. Well, how's the result of your examination?" Jean asked with concern. She was worried for his well-being, so she wanted to know about his report.
"Not bad. The doctor said that I am recovering well. And I have made a lot of progress in this time." Moore answered with a smile and his face was looking relieved while he told Jean about his report.
On hearing about Moore's report, Jean became delighted.
After all, Moore had been in the hospital for a week, she was happy to see his apparent recovery. When he was hospitalized, he was in bad shape, so naturally news about his improving health came like a ray of good hope to Jean.
"The doctor will take out my stitches in a few days. If my wound heals well, I will be able to leave hospital soon. Finally, be free from here." Seeing Jean's happy face, Moore said more vigorously. He was glad to see Jean in cheery mood after long time and that too because of him. Since Jean was hospitalized, he hadn't seen a happy smile on her face. All those past smiles were forceful fake smiles. So, seeing a real smile on Jean's face, he felt radiant.
"Really?" The simle on Jean's face became more obvious. "Moore, what are you going to do after leaving hospital?"
