Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 403

"Yes, you know a lot about me. But it is only a part of me. You will never know how important your gestures and behavior are to me. I just can't live without you, Jean."

Zed was wrenched by the turmoil his marriage was in. He was entreating Jean to listen to him with some seriousness and believe his feelings for her.

"You..." Jean blushed a little. She hadn't expected Zed to be so naked in his feelings and say something like this when she was furious at him. After a moment, she added,"Don't talk nonsense. What did you go to find Moore for? He is one of my only friends. Why did you go to him? Anyway, what gave you the right to find him?"

Jean was seething with indignation as Zed had gone behind her back and treated her like a child who could be controlled whenever Zed liked.

"Yes, what gave me the right to find him?" Wearing a wry smile, Zed said,"Initially, I went to ask him to leave H City. But, my threats meant nothing to him. Instead, he scolded me."

"Did Moore really scold you?" There was a slight change in her expression as Jean registered this. Slightly astonished at this, she said,"What did he say to you?"

'Zed's attitude has changed towards me. He is now treating me with respect. Does it have to do with what Moore said to him?' Jean thought.

"He told me that I don't know you or understand you. He also said that I shouldn't be so selfish to only think about myself, and ignore your feelings. He asked me that I should be frank with you whatever happens and not leave you alone ever again..."

"I was right in thinking that all that you have said to me since you returned is actually straight from Moore's mouth." 'What an irony', thought Jean to herself. As she heard Zed parrot what Moore had advised him to say, she couldn't help but feel sardonic about the whole thing.

"No, Jean." Zed was struck ?by shame as his wife thought he was taught by another man on treating his wife right. He tried to clarify and said,"He only persuaded me to do this and I saw no reason not to follow his advice. Ultimately, I figured out where I had been wrong."

Looking at Zed's tender expressions, Jean immediately became soft-hearted and asked,"Really?"

"You can ask Moore if you don't believe my words," Zed replied in a hurry.

"I'm a little surprised. You didn't even forbid me to see him." Jean was so shocked to see this part of Zed.

As far as she knew, Zed wouldn't allow her to see anyone who threatened him.

"You think of me as that bad?" Zed smirked immediately on hearing what she had just said. Keeping the smugness to himself, he added,"Besides, it is due to Moore's prompting that we have reconciled our differences. Which is why I believe your relationship with him is pure. But Jean, just meet him as less as possible if you care about my feelings."

'Look, I have just said that he has changed. But immediately, he is who he was again.'

Jean jumped at this quick change in Zed's attitude. She challenged him back with an angry look. "What if I don't agree with you? Since you still doubt my relationship with Moore, shouldn't I suspect your relationship with Jesse?"

"You clearly know nothing unseemly has happened between Jesse and me," Subsumed in sadness, Zed looked down and replied.

"Yes, but I am still not sure if you have those kind of feelings for her. Forget everything else. You now know very clearly that Jesse loves you, right?" Jean asked him aggressively.

"Hmm," Zed replied quietly.

"So? I don't know and can't predict whether you will be sympathetic and moved by her tenderness. Am I not right in thinking this, Mr. Zed Qi?" Jean asked Zed annoyed at how many times she had stressed on this point in front of him.

"Definitely not. I have told you that I only treat her as my little sister," Zed refuted with strong discontent all of a sudden.

"Don't you treat her as your savior? Because of this, aren't you partial to her even though you know that she is wrong?" Jean added.

"You..." Before he could finish, Zed was so shocked that he stammered and said in astonishment,"How did you know that?"

"Do you think I can forgive you just because of your sweet-talking to me? You think I don't know the secret between you two?" Jean snorted coldly.
