Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 417

With a worried look, Jean explained.

"So he doesn't want to confront Gary Bai and he is in an awkward situation here in China, right? Since he has no place to stay and the current scenario doesn't get any better, he can go back to Chicago. Or America, England, Germany... Anywhere. Why does he insist on staying here?" Zed retorted unpleasantly with knitted eyebrows.

"Because he is a Chinese at heart. After spending his early life amidst foreigners with blonde hair and blue eyes, he wants to be with his own people. Do you want him to be miserable by sending him back for the rest of his life? Zed, please, a man like him would always return to his hometown in the end. Though humans can wander far away from home and socialize with different kinds of communities, in the end, they are nostalgic and emotional about their home. And their hometowns where they spent their most formative years hold a special place in their hearts. Why can't you understand this about Moore and let him stay with us? There are many vacant rooms in our house. More importantly, Gary Bai won't come here to find Moore.

Don't you know that Gary Bai had earlier given a house to him pretending it was from his foster parents? And Gary went to see him personally earlier this morning, so Moore checked out in advance from the hospital. You know what it means if Gary showed up there personally. He definitely wanted Moore to return to the Bai family. But Moore revolts against the very idea, so..."

"Stop it!" Zed's face darkened,"I won't let Moore stay with us."

"Zed..." Jean stamped her feet, agitated, since Zed didn't agree. "What should I do to make you change your mind? Only under your protection will Gary not harass Moore. If you are worried about the relationship between me and Moore, I swear to God, we are only friends."

"Jean..." Seeing Jean explain so hard for letting Moore stay in their house, Zed sighed helplessly and said,"It's not me being merciless. It's just that as a man, I can't let another man into my house. Furthermore...

Moore has feelings for you.

If I let him stay, he is like a dangerous time bomb."

"Zed..." Jean got angry as Zed still didn't agree. "I don't care. If you agree, we're all happy. But even if you don't agree, I'll still invite him to stay. After all, it all started because of me. If I hadn't run him down, he wouldn't have been found by Gary Bai; and nothing else would have happened,"

Jean said firmly. Zed was surprised, seeing Jean's resolute face.

It was his first time seeing Jean so decided about something, and specially, trying to make up for her mistake.

'Right!' Zed gave in with great reluctance.

He knew Jean wouldn't cheat on him.

There was nothing to worry about.

If he insisted any further on Moore not coming here, it would only affect their relationship.

Plus, if he agreed now, Jean would put up a stronger front as a couple in front of Moore.

"Since you insist, I will not stand in your way." Zed looked at her with probing eyes. "If you want him to stay, he can stay. But I can't promise about him being willing about it."

"Zed, did you just agree?" Jean incredulously asked him.

"What else can I say? You are the hostess of the house. It's your right to let anyone stay. Besides, I don't want our relationship to be damaged by this trivial matter. But..."

"But what?" Jean asked. She was excited since Zed agreed.

"How long will Moore stay?" Zed asked, wondering how things would be affected if Moore decided to stay in his house.

Jean was taken aback and didn't know what to reply.

"He will have to leave one day, Jean. I hope you understand." Zed touched her arm slightly with concern.

"I know." Jean nodded and replied,"Let him stay for a while. Give him some time. He just came out of the hospital, and he hasn't fully recovered yet. For the next three months, he is supposed to stay at home and rest. After he recovers, we'll make other plans."
