Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 354

As soon as Benjamin heard that Jean was going to visit her friend in the hospital, a strange feeling arose inside him immediately.

He thought to himself, 'Just aright now, Jesse said she had something to deal with, and now Jean is going away as well. What's going on?'

He stared at Jean in suspicion but seeing nothing special or unusual on her face, he turned questioningly towards Zed.

Zed noticed his grandfather's reaction and immediately understood that he was confused. Walking up to him with a bitter smile, he tried to explain on Jean's behalf,"Grandpa, Jean ran over a guy several days ago and she hasn't visited him recently since she has been so busy. Last night, she decided that she would go to the hospital today, so..."

Benjamin was shocked by his words. He stared at Jean and asked,"Jean ran over a guy?"

Jean offered an awkward smile and swore a thousand colourful words towards him a hundred times over in her heart.

She thought to herself, 'He could have told Grandpa a billion other excuses. Why the hell did it have to be running someone over!'

Since Benjamin now believed that, she had no choice but to sigh and reply,"Yes, Grandpa. I ran over a guy. I'm not really good at driving, you know. It's lucky that the guy survived and is recovering from his injuries, so I want to visit him today."

Since Jean explained this clearly, Benjamin thought that the car accident wasn't very serious.

Or, Zed and Jean wouldn't be so relaxed as they were right now.

The thought seemed to satisfy him and he was relieved at once. Looking at Jean, he advised her with concern,"You should drive carefully in the future."

Jean sweetly replied,"Yes Grandpa. I will."

Totally satisfied now, Benjamin told her to hurry. "Since you've planned to visit him, go on. But remember to come back early."

Jean replied,"Yes, Grandpa." Jean was relieved since Benjamin didn't stop her from going to hospital. So she cutely said,"Grandpa, Grandpa Dan, Zed will be with you. You guys have fun in H City this afternoon. I'll come back as early as possible and I'll cook dinner for you."

Dan laughed and said,"Go on girl. If you don't leave early, how are you planning on coming back early too?"

Jean nodded and gave them a wave,"Goodbye!"

Seeing that Jean was almost besides the door, Zed hurried told Benjamin,"Grandpa, I am gonna walk her out."

Benjamin waved his hand to Zed and replied without a glance at him. "Go on."

Zed lightly nodded his head and quickly walked out.

Benjamin shook his head with a sigh. "Look at today's young men. They don't even want to be apart for a second," said Benjamin when he kept on drinking his tea.

Dan nodded and agreed. "You're right. They're nothing like we used to be when we were young."

Zed kept walking and finally caught his wife at the door of Safwan Restaurant.

Jean saw him and, throwing a little attitude, gave him a cold question,"Why did you follow me here?"

Zed asked worriedly,"Are you really going to the hospital to see Moore? I can drive you there."

Jean thought it was funny and asked,"Zed, what are you worried about? And in any case, Grandpa is still waiting for you back in the restaurant. How can you drive me to the hospital? Just go back and entertain Grandpa. I can get a cab to the hospital myself."

"Oh." Zed seemed to remember something and hastily took out his wallet. Pulling out a black card, he handed it over to Jean, telling her,"Take this card..."

When she saw that black card, she was immediately reminded of how poorly she had been inside the hospital and felt quite sad. So she looked at Zed with a hint of anger.

Taking the card, she asked unceremoniously,"Will you find some other excuse to take this back again?"

Zed could sense that she was teasing him and sighed helplessly. "Look, it was the situation at that time. It couldn't have been avoided. You understand, na? Don't worry. I am never going to take that card back again..."

"That's great!" Jean waved the card in front of him and told him with a grin,"Then I get this card forever. You'd better get back to Grandpa now. I have to leave..."
