Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 359

"Let's go! Let's go for eating!" Jean exclaimed with great excitement.

Moore shook his head helplessly on seeing Jean's intense response.

As they just reached the aisle, Jean's mobile phone started to ring.

Quickly, she fumbled with her purse and took her mobile phone out. After taking a glance at her phone, she found it was a phone call from Zed. Immediately, the smile on her face became more vibrant.

Without wasting any second, she pressed the answer key. While walking behind Moore towards the gate of the hospital, she answered,"Zed..."

"When will you come back? Do I need to go to the hospital to pick you up?" Zed asked, sounding concerned about her.

"Aren't you outside with grandpa? You don't need to come here to pick me up. You have been busy and tired all day long. I will catch a taxi as soon as I finish eating," Jean replied while walking.

"Jean..." Zed paused for a moment and sighed before he added,"Have you forgotten anything?"

"What?" Jean asked, in bewilderment.

"It seems that you have really forgotten that. What did you say to grandpa before you left?" Zed reminded.

"I..." Jean tried hard to recall what she had said. A while later, her face changed and had a quizzical expression. She patted hard on her own forehead and said,"Oh, my god. I have really forgotten it. Then, what shall I do?"

'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.'

These words repeated inside her head after she wracked her brain.

Now she was confused because she had already invited Moore to eat outside with her.

'What should I do?

What should I do?' Jean thought.

To be sure, she couldn't break the promise she kept to Zed's grandfather. On the other hand, this was the first time that Jean had treated Moore to dinner. 'How can I suddenly change my mind and tell him that I can't have a meal with him?'

Her mind was a whirlwind of thoughts.

"Don't eat outside. It is still not late for you to prepare the supper if you come back right away!" Zed continued since he was still on the other side of the phone. His words brought her back from her reverie.

"But..." In fear of being heard by Moore, Jean walked away to another side and continued in a lower voice,"I have just invited Moore to eat outside."

"You..." Zed suddenly became speechless after knowing what Jean had gotten herself into.

"Zed, what should I do now?" At that moment, Jean was really anxious and out of her sense. She had no choice but to ask Zed for help.

"Don't ask me. It all depends on you." Zed sighed again on the other end of the line.

"Zed, you also know that," Jean replied pathetically. "Moore has stayed in the hospital for a long time. But I have never treated him to a meal. Can I... Can I..."

Jean wanted to ask Zed for a favor, but she felt so hard to speak it out.

Discerning Jean's embarrassment in her voice, Zed could do nothing, so he sighed helplessly. "Okay! I will have supper with them outside. In that case, you won't be embarrassed. But don't make such a mistake again,"

warned Zed, sounding extremely serious. "Thank you so much," Jean replied happily as soon as she heard that Zed was willing to help her.

"Then, are you still angry about what happened at noon?" Zed seized this opportunity to ask her about it. "Will you show hatred towards me again?"

"No, no," Jean replied in a hurry.

Hearing her voice, Joy and Shirley looked startled and nearly jumped. Immediately, they turned back and stared at Jean with a grumpy face.

"What have you come here for?" Joy fiercely inquired.

"Of course, I came to see if you both are doing fine," Jean replied, sarcastically. "Last night, Shirley left without saying goodbye. I was so worried that something might have happened to her, so I am to see if she is doing well."

"Don't pull the wool over our eyes. Jean, I'm warning you. I am not scared of you even if you have gone back to Zed," Shirley said furiously.

With her eyes rolling, Joy suddenly burst into laughter when she saw Moore standing beside Jean. Then, she said,"You have just reconciled with Zed. But now, you are here hanging out and entangling with another man. Aren't you afraid that Zed will abandon you again?"

"Oh. I have never known that you care so much about me. You may be disappointed this time because it is Zed that asked me to come to the hospital to see Moore and invite him to supper," Jean retorted loudly, but the great smile was still on her face.

"Jean, don't try to fool us now. If Zed asked you to come here, why didn't he keep you company?" Shirley said with a noticeable hint of jealousy.

"As you know, Zed is very busy. I can handle matters like this by myself." Her heart was filled with great joy when Jean saw their faces turn pallid. Then, she added,"Well. Since you don't believe me, I don't feel obliged to make you trust me. Moore, let's go to eat."

As soon as she finished her words, Jean walked past them and hailed a cab.

Seeing that Jean and Moore had slid into the car, Shirley furiously and fiercely stared at the direction where they had left.

"Mom, I can't stand it anymore. I wouldn't have stopped you from killing her if I had known that she was such a bitch. Now, I hate to swallow our anger in front of her. Her piercing words make me sick!"

Shirley said grudgingly.

"My silly girl, don't complain about this now. If you want to take revenge, there will be many chances in the future. Be patient, darling." Joy's eyes gleamed with malice when she uttered those words. She patted on Shirley's shoulder to comfort her.

"Mom, I want to teach her a lesson right now."
