Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 392

"No." Noticing the impatience reeking from Jean, Zed didn't argue any longer and quickly grabbed her bag, handing it over to her before she completely losing her temper. "Okay, here you are. Your cellphone and daily necessities are in this bag. I haven't packed your clothes, so you can just go and buy some…"

Grabbing the bag from him, Jean interrupted him in a softer voice this time,"Thank you." She passed by him and took her leave, but was stopped as Zed grabbed her hand and stared at her with blank eyes, unable to tell her what he really felt at that very moment. Sighing, he said instead,"Don't make me wait too long, Jean. Come back as soon as you can."

Jean stared back at him intently. She was about to instinctively nod at him, but the image of him and Jesse kissing flashed on her mind. She felt the coldness of misery in her heart. She frowned at him, pulling her hand away, and in haste, continued to walk ahead.

Heaving a deep sigh, Zed watched her retreating figure for a second before turning to Toby. "Toby, I'd like you to use this car, so it would be convenient for you to protect Jean. I trust in you." Saying this, he pulled out a car key from his pocket and handed it to Toby.

Toby felt pride surging through him as Zed trusted him with this responsibility. With great respect, he nodded and replied,"Yes, Mr. Zed." He then reached out his hand to take the key.

Zed turned to watch Jean again. He felt so many emotions coursing through his body right now that all he could do was heave yet another deep sigh. Without looking away from Jean, he said to Toby,"Take good care of Jean. Protect her from any potential danger that she might cross paths with. That girl is a magnet for troubles."

Once more, Toby replied with unfaltering respect,"Yes, Mr. Zed. You can count on me." When Zed didn't reply anymore, he hurriedly left. He turned the ignition of the first luxurious car that he ever rode and drove. He shook his head from the thought of how comfortable it was to be in this racing car and focused his attention on following after Jean, who was already far away. After all, he had a responsibility that Zed had trusted him in.

Once more, Zed let out another heavy sigh as he watched the car drove off before leaving as well.

Turning towards the curb, Jean started to slow her pace after she was sure that she was already out of Zed's sight.

Soon after, a honk startled her from behind.

Jean moved towards the sidewalk to give way for the car, and saw Zed's car moving beside her to match her pace. She quickened her pace, annoyed by the thought of Zed following her. But she stopped when she saw a different man on the driver's seat as the windows rolled down. The car door opened and out was Toby, who opened the backseat door for her. "Mrs. Jean, please, get on the car."

Jean's eyebrows furrowed into a frown, confused as to why Toby was using Zed's most valuable and favorite car.

Seeing her confused look, Toby explained,"Mr. Zed asked to me to use this car to drive you to and from your destination."

Without any second thoughts, she shrugged her shoulders lightly and said,"Okay." Jean then got on the car instantly through the door Toby opened for her.

Knowing her attitude from the past conversations, Toby was stunned for a moment, not expecting her to get in the car without any declining and arguing that would eventually lead to the same outcome. Shaking his head, he decided to let this go and got on his side of the car to drive.

Only the sound of the engine could be heard as Toby quickly drove the car to the unloading area of the hospital and rushed to open the door for Jean. After he told Jean to wait for him in front of the main entrance, he drove the car to the parking lot.

However, Jean rolled her eyes and disobediently entered the hospital the moment the car was out of sight.

As soon as she stepped through the main entrance, she was immediately greeted by Moore, who was smiling at her as he waited for her patiently.

"Did you wait for me on purpose?" Jean asked, laughing as she quickly walked towards him.

"Of course, so come on. Let's go. You won't believe it. Henry's room has been noisy ever since early in the morning. Go and check for yourself. See how you can deal with it." In haste, Moore said, not wasting time to exchange any polite greetings with Jean.

After hearing this, Jean's heart sank as she thought of all the possible reasons why. She instantly cocked an eyebrow and asked,"What the hell happened? Do you know?"

"What else could it be?" Moore replied, shrugging his shoulders at her. "Henry just heard the news about Winner's death, so he ordered his people to call for Joy and Shirley. He has been yelling at them non-stop. It seems like he is really devastated this time."

'How could he not feel sad about this? After all, his lost his son, ' Jean thought to herself.

She sighed and was about to start walking when she noticed Toby hurriedly running towards her.

Moore looked at Toby and turned to Jean with a puzzled look. Jean just nodded at him, expecting this reaction from Moore. When he saw Toby stand behind Jean, he turned to face Jean once more and asked,"Jean, is this…"

Jean turned to look at Toby and then introduced him to Moore. "Well, this is Toby. I hired him to protect me."
