Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 314

Now Jean realized why Moore was so peculiar.

He didn't grow up like an ordinary boy and suffered a lot in his life. His childhood was spent in worries and without the companionship of a mother.

Overall, his life experiences had endowed him with a discreet and cautious character. As a result, he dedicated his time to building his body to protect himself from the uncertain life.

"It's just a way of killing time, no big deal!" Seeing the worship and admiration in Jean's eyes, Moore felt a little embarrassed and scratched his head awkwardly.

As a matter of fact, he started to build up his willpower and forbearance at a very young age. It was something that turned into a habit, hence it felt natural to him.

Ever since he realized his value in his dad's life, he lost all his hopes.

If it were not for his foster parents who cared for him, loved him and protected him, he would have been a miserable human-being.

"Don't be so modest! I know you are strong both physically and mentally!" exclaimed Jean. Slowly, she stepped closer to Moore and patted on his shoulder with admiration. "If I am half as capable as you, I will be afraid of nothing."

"Jean..." Moore blushed while he uttered Jean's name. "In that case, don't be afraid because I will be here to protect you!"

"I know.But for that, you need to recover soon," said Jean with sincerity. Her mind couldn't rest until he recovered completely.

"I will." Moore took a deep breath and looked at Jean with a determined smile.

Zed, on the other hand, entered his villa and greeted Zelda with a slight nod. Without wasting any time, Zed went straight into his room.

Impatiently, he pushed the door of his bedroom and slumped on his bed in complete darkness. His mind replayed all the beautiful memories he had with Jean in the past.

The mere thought of Jean tingled his body with sensation and brought a genuine smile on his face.

"Jean..."

Zed spoke to the darkness. It was the name that was always on the tip of his tongue. He missed her miserably and wished that she was with him. Sadness consumed him and he closed his eyes to stop himself from weeping.

'You must hate me more now, do you?

You are supposed to hate me! After all, I have hurt you so much.

It's all my fault. I feel so incapable and useless! I can't have you even when I am with you in the same hospital.

Do you have any idea how much this hurts me?'

Zed confessed his love for Jean through his heart. Suddenly, he opened his eyes, stood up straight and strode toward the bathroom, as if he had an epiphany.

In a matter of few minutes, he took a shower and put on his night gown. Without wasting any time, he sprinted to his study and sat there.

"Sir, Mars who tracked Lance reported that a strange-looking man is also tracking him.Should we get rid of the barrier?" Gregory reported the news to Zed, in a serious voice, after knocking the door.

"Someone else is also tracking Lance?" repeated Zed, as he tapped impatiently on the table with his finger. This piece of news interested him. "I didn't expect there was someone who would take this clue. It seems that we have the same thinking. Don't take any harsh decision before we ascertain his identity,"

ordered Zed.

"Yes, Sir!" Gregory received the order and nodded his head before he walked out of the room.

'Who can it be?'

Zed pondered about it for a while. Though Lance seemed like an insignificant man, he truly was one of the key figures in this case.

This meant that this person must have thoroughly studied the video before taking an action.

'A strange-looking man?'

An image?of someone flashed on his mind, but it disappeared quickly.

Finally, an idea struck him and he dialed a number.

The phone was answered soon and a lethargic voice spoke on the phone,"Hello? Zed, what's up?"
