Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 342

"Of course I came back. I wanted to see the show!" With a poker-face, Benjamin walked right up to Zed and continued,"Look at the kind of girl you married. She is causing so much trouble for you and destroying your reputation."

"Grandpa." Zed anxiously tried to explain,"Jean is being vilified here. She's not the kind of person you think she is."

Benjamin's response was cold and defiant. "Thank you. I have eyes and I can clearly see the kind of person she is. Were she perfect, no one would have any evidence against her, and no one would try to undermine her status. No matter what you think, your wife brought all these troubles herself."

Zed looked at him with a bitter smile and replied,"You shouldn't say things like that, Grandpa. And to tell the truth, I am the one who caused these hurdles. If I hadn't married her, she would be all fine right now."

Benjamin's beard shook with rage and his eyes split wide open. He strongly disagreed with Zed and wasn't hesitant to tell him so. "OK, all right. Even if I agree that the scandal that ensued because of that video was your fault. But now...? Ethan is her former lover and he said that he loved her in front of so many people. Did that happen because of you too? You heard him as clearly as I did. He didn't care what Jean had done and merely wanted her to come back in his life. See? That's the problem with today's youth. Jean is married to you but Ethan still wants to be with her. What the hell is wrong with him?"

Zed simply smiled a bitter smile. He had no idea how to explain the situation to his grandfather.

He wondered to himself, 'Grandpa should have been home and resting by now.

Why did he suddenly come back here?

It seems like someone planned and thought these things through completely tonight. And the only reason was that my Grandpa would dislike Jean. Whoever thought this out hates Jean and doesn't want her to live happily.

My poor Jean...'

Zed was extremely worried about her and stole a glance to where she was standing. His eyes were filled with sorrow.

He felt guilty that Jean had had to suffer so much just because she had married him.

Jean had also noticed that Benjamin and Dan had come back and her face was even paler now.

Her fingers closed into a fist angrily and she glared at Jesse.

She had her suspicions about the entire thing being planned by Jesse. And when Dan and Benjamin returned, it only served to confirm those doubts.

Jesse was a vile and vicious person indeed!

Jean's eyes burned. Staring at Jesse, she declared in a cold, defiant tone,"Tonight, no matter who wants to frame me or smear my name, I am not going to remain silent. If anyone wants to accuse me of something, just stand out and say it to my face."

When Ethan saw Benjamin was back, he stopped panicking and just fondly stared at Jean. "Jean, I'm just telling the truth here. How could you even say something like that? Why would I be trying to smear your name?"

Jean glared at Ethan and coldly replied,"Get that disgusting look off your face, Ethan. And if you truly love me, then tell me this in front of everyone right here. Tell me who directed this little charade of yours. And if you can't say that right now, then I clearly know that you don't love me!"

There was both sadness and confusion on Ethan's face. He looked shocked and stared at her, trying to defend himself. "Jean, why do you think that someone is setting you up? I love you so much. Do I need anyone else to tell me what I should do? Do you mean to say that all these things are fake? Don't you believe in me? Why are you looking at me so strangely like that? I can't believe you are the Jean I met. I can't believe you're the person you used to be."

Jean kept staring at him coldly and wanted to see what he would say next. "Go on. Keep performing Ethan. I really want to see when you will stop this one-man show."

Maranda felt anxious and couldn't help but murmur,"What should we do?" What she saw was telling her that this Ethan was a shameless person and Jean couldn't be a match for him.

Zed looked up at her and then glanced at Ron and Calvin.
