At that very moment, it felt like the earth stopped spinning. Everyone around them were shocked. With their eyes wide open, they all stared.
Everyone seemed to be so engrossed in the fight that they forgot to step in and stop Zed and Moore from fighting. Moore was still a patient with his wounds notyet healed. In those onlookers' eyes, Moore was overreaching himself.
Zed was the most powerful one in the city. Nobody had ever competed against him, because they all knew they would lose against him. The crowd was shocked to see someone like Moore, confronting someone like Zed. They all pitied Moore, because this was a huge risk that he was taking.
As Jean saw what really was happening, she turned pale. She had wanted to stop them from fighting, but it was too late to get involved now.
Before Jean got the chance to stand up, Moore came right in front of Zed and fiercely glared at him. Moore acted as if the man in front of him was not human but a ferocious breast. At that moment, Moore's eyes were full of hatred for Zed.
Zed felt Moore's bravery, due to which the smile on his face faded away. Zed was shocked at whatever was happening.
Overwhelmed with a mix of different emotions, Zed stared at Moore to expect something in his eyes but there was nothing that Zed was looking for.
At that moment, Zed knew that Moore would never think twice before taking Jean's side. He would do everything in his strength and power to win. Moore pitied Jean and he was willing to do everything for her.
Deep in his heart, Zed questioned Moore's feelings for Jean. He felt the agitation.
It had not been too long since Moore and Jean had known each other, yet he was willing to fight for her. This clearly showed that Moore had other motives. This alone was too incredible for Zed.
At the thought of this, Zed quickly winked at Gregory and Terry, his musclemen. Although Zed didn't move from his place, he ordered them to move.
Moore nearly swung at Zed to punch him, but Zed did not move even a little inch.
"Wow!" Suddenly, the crowd exclaimed at Zed's courage for not hitting him back.
Jesse, on the other hand, suddenly got anxious.
When Moore's fist was just a few centimetres away from Zed's face, Gregory interrupted and grabbed Moore's hand. He did everything in his strength to stop Moore from punching Zed.
Nobody expected him to do that but at the very last moment, he stopped the fight.
"Ooh," exclaimed the crowd.
They all admired how Zed had such a strong muscleman. His men remained calm throughout the fight. They had always admired Zed but today their admiration for him doubled.
Jean sighed with relief after she realized that Zed was not hurt in the fight.
As soon as the fight ended, her worrisome face changed and she became angry.
She stood up and walked towards Moore.
"Let go of me! Zed, tell him to put his hands off me if you really think of yourself as a man. Let's not involve more people and fight this on our own." Moore struggled hard to free himself from the muscleman, who looked at him furiously.
"You are struggling to free yourself from my muscleman. How would you fight with me?" Zed sneered.
As soon as the words came out of Zed's mouth, the crowd started laughing.
Jean stopped the moment she heard Zed's words. She couldn't believe her eyes that the man who stood before her was somebody she never knew.
Zed was surrounded by his musclemen who gave no space for anybody to come near him. He was just standing out there among the crowd, with a mischievous smile on his face.
Zed looked arrogant at that moment. He was satisfied with himself. He thought that what he just did gained him a lot of respect from everybody.
Surely, no words could describe the way he was acting.
Jean had never thought that Zed, who loved her so much, would ever do something like this.
Maybe she was wrong all along. This was who he really was.
The fact that she thought of him as somebody good disgusted her.
As these thoughts ran through her mind, sadness took over her. Jean felt disappointed.
Moore, who had been angry at Zed, finally calmed himself down. All the anger that had mounted inside him vanished.
He was not thinking straight but the fact that Jean was involved gave him every reason to fight Zed in front of him. He had also made a fool out of himself in front of so many people.
