Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 282

"No, I have made up my mind." Moore shook his head and put a full stop to Jean's persuasion. "I want to stay here no matter how much family property I can inherit from them."

Hearing Moore's stubborn reply, Jean had no choice but to stop. She sighed feeling tired of trying to convince him.

Somewhere deep down she felt responsible because she was the one who persuaded him not to leave the H City with her tactful words. 'Moore is going to lose an enormous amount of money and I may have some part in it, ' she sighed.

Normally, Jean firmly believed that young people like them should struggle and make it big on their own. The idea of living off their parents' money appalled her.

However, Moore was new in this city and had very few friends here. With no one to help him, it would be hard. Some extra money could do wonders for him to settle down.

From her own experience, this place wasn't an easy place to live in. Her heart was filled with concern for her friend.

Going back to Chicago would have promised him a happy and enjoyable life. Judging by his clothing, Moore looked like a guy who enjoyed looking good.

It looked obvious that his adoptive parents weren't some ordinary people.

'Now because of my long-tonguedness, all his life will be completely different.'

At the thought of this, Jean felt remorseful and worried.

Because of her words, there would be a tremendous change in Moore's life.

She grimaced thinking about the hardships and struggles he would face.

"Alright! Since you have made your own choice, I don't want to say anything more, " Jean replied with a sigh, "I am your friend and will support you all the time no matter what choice you make."

"Jean, I am so glad to have you with me. You are the first friend I made since I came to the H City and I am thankful for that, " said Moore with a smile which was so genuine.

"In addition, it is my great honor that you consider me worthy of your friendship." As Jean heard these words from Moore, a charming smile danced on her lovely face.

Although their meeting happened due to the car accident, They had gradually gotten acquainted with each other and become very close friends.

Now Moore took his cellphone out of his pocket and made a phone call to his lawyer in Jean's presence.

To Jean's surprise, he would be so serious when talking to his lawyer.

His accent was authentic and his voice was vigorous. Listening to him, Jean felt as if she were listening to a melodic English song.

All of a sudden, her eyes gleamed with admiration and envy, Because negotiating had always been one of her biggest weaknesses.

The phone call didn't last long. As Moore hung the phone up, his eyebrows furrowed a bit and a weird expression crept onto his face.

Discerning that something was wrong, Jean grew concerned and asked, "What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

"I have told the lawyer about my decision, and he has agreed with my choice. But..."

Before Moore finished his words, he stammered and his eyebrows were knitted more tightly. Staring at Jean with a look of confusion, he slowly muttered, "Despite my rejection of their family property, my adoptive parents have specially left a house in the H City as a token of their regard and love for me. It is so weird. How did they know I would make up my mind to stay here?"

"It is not surprising at all. They surely know and understand you. That's how love works." This information relieved Jean of her worries, but she continued to put Moore into a better mood. "Moore, your adoptive parents are very kind-hearted. They really love you a lot, although they are not your biological parents."

"I know they love me. I love them too." As these words were uttered out, Moore's eyes suddenly turned reddish. Then, he added, "I was so sad about their death that I left Chicago and started hunting for a better atmosphere. Unexpectedly, I came to this city..."
