Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 360

Shirley said with an angry and malicious look.

"Well, your poor father woke up. But ever since he woke up, I get the feeling that he is treating us slightly differently. On the other hand, Jean has said that she wanted to go back to the Wen Group. In such a situation, we need to be very careful. Or else she will say something ill to your father and ruin our family. And then we may lose everything that we have," finished Joy, looking affirmative. Her eyes lit up in a malicious and calculating manner.

"Mom, so what methods do you think we should take in order to get rid of her?" Hearing what her mother said, Shirley felt her fears dissipate. A big smile made its way to her face.

"We should be careful before we take any step," said Joy, as she started to think deeply about the matter.

"Ok, I will listen to your opinion," Shirley hurriedly replied and nodded her head obediently.

On the taxi, Jean couldn't help keeping herself from laughing. Her beautifully-arched eyebrows arched even more on her delighted face. It was evident that she was in a really good mood.

Moore saw that Jean was almost out of breath after all the laughing she did. Helplessly, he asked,"Why do you find it so amusing?"

In his eyes, even the sight of Shirley and Joy was disturbing. He couldn't believe anyone could feel good after seeing them.

Hence Moore was still really confused seeing Jean smiling so happily. 'What is happening to her?' he wondered.

"Haven't you seen what just happened now? Joy and Shirley both failed to come up with a comeback. My reply left them dumbfounded!" Jean smiled happily and thought about their stunned expression.

"Jean, I always knew you were a capable girl. But you must stop laughing like this, or else you will go crazy." Frowning, Moore noticed she laughed even more now. He didn't know what to say and waited for her response.

"That's fine. I am just feeling really happy. I have been accused and abused by them for so many years and now I finally make my way and get away from their accusation. I am so thrilled! In fact, I am looking forward to my happy days." As she spoke, the big smile was still plastered on her face. But now her eyes turned red as if she wanted to cry.

Moore also noticed her reddish eyes and he immediately felt sorry for her.

The car fell into a dead silence all of a sudden. Jean stretched out her hand to rub her eyes gently. Then she turned her head and stared out of the window trying to admire nature. She found herself getting lost in her thoughts.

From the window, it was obvious that it was already dusk. Outside, it was packed with hundreds of thousands of cars on the street. Jean realized this was a rush hour.

Looking at everyone, who was busy making their way in the hustle-bustle, Jean felt quite sad. She had no idea what prompted this sadness.

Her thoughts went back to her mother. 'What if she didn't die due to a disease? What if she could have lived an ordinary life?' wondered Jean, looking sad and weepy. Everytime she saw Joy, she thought back to the time she had almost been strangled by her. This incident was beyond her expectation and troubled her mind.

As fear had found its place in Jean's heart, it would always remind her of her dear mother and make her miss her madly.

Jean thought to herself, 'If my mom was still alive now then how wonderful life would have been! Things would change completely and my life would have been a dream.

Sadly, my dreams will never come true because my mother will never be back.'

That was exactly the reason why every time she saw Joy, hatred consumed her.

Jean continued to ponder, 'If it were not because of her, my mom would not have died so young.

I am sure Joy had something to do with her death.'

Thinking of such a likelihood, Jean shuddered with fear. Her mind lingered over on this and she was confused. Also, she felt a little sad about hiding this fear without sharing it with anyone else.

"What's wrong with you?" Moore heard Jean shudder and asked looking concerned.

"Nothing. I am fine." Jean shook her head without much strength. While they were talking, the taxi driver parked the car slowly at the most crowded place.

Seeing that the place in front of them was brightly lit as in daylight and crowded by so many people, Jean shook her sadness off and quickly held Moore's hand to throw themselves into the crowd.

Moore was feeling dizzy seeing such a big crowd and that's when he felt Jean's hand find him. Suddenly, he was startled and dared not to move.

"Hold me tightly. Or you may blame me when you get lost in the crowd," Jean said and passed a bright smile to Moore.
