"Okay!" Jean nodded as she was pleased with what Moore just did. She looked at him and said," Moore, if you are not by my side, I can't do anything about it, can I? Zed is so busy these days that I barely get to see him. Sometimes, I think it's better if I don't discuss anything with him as I don't want to burden him anymore. He is already so busy running a big company, the Qi Group,"
Jean said as she was concerned.
As Moore saw that Jean was worried about Zed, he smiled to tease her. "Now I understand why you insisted me to stay here. You actually want someone to talk to." Moore smiled naughtily.
"Of course not! I'm not that bad! All right, that's it! I need to go to the photography company now. I'm afraid you will have to eat lunch alone," Jean said as she stood up and walked towards the stairs to get changed.
Moore couldn't help but ask," Jean, how about I come along with you?"
"What is it? Are you worried about me?" she asked as soon as she heard Moore's words. Jean soon realized that Moore was concerned about her.
"Yes. Earlier Zed told me that although Shirley is at the police station now and Joy is involved in something really huge, Joy won't leave you alone until she gets what she wants from you. So we are worried that she might come after you. Zed asked me to keep you company at all times,"
Moore said sincerely as he looked at Jean.
Moore was extremely serious so Jean decided to accept his offer. "Fine! I'll go get changed."
As Moore heard that Jean didn't refuse, he got happy.
He had thought that it would take him more time to persuade Jean.
But she actually understood the entire situation.
Jean came back, all dressed up in a cream-coloured casual suit. The light colour of her dress made her look even more gorgeous.
Moore saw Jean and smiled. "Wow, I didn't expect you to look so beautiful in such a simple dress."
"Moore, save it! You must have met lots of beautiful ladies abroad. How can someone as ordinary as I catch your attention?" Jean walked towards Moore and proved him wrong. "Let's go! Or we won't get a cab."
Moore was confused so he looked at Jean and asked," Why do we need to get a cab?"
"Are you driving then? No, you can't! You haven't even recovered completely. You can't drive! And my driving is terrible. I'm afraid to drive a car now. Besides, even if I want to drive, my driving license has been confiscated," Jean said as she shook her head and walked outside.
"We don't have to drive. Zed has told Toby to guard you at all times." Moore reminded her.
"Right! How can I forget Toby?" As Jean heard that, she tapped herself on the forehead.
Toby has been guarding Jean since a very long time now. Both Zed and Moore thought that Joy would plan to hurt Jean so Zed must've asked Toby to always stay by her side.
But there was a problem.
"But If you know that Toby will protect me, then why do you want to come along with me?" Jean asked as she looked at Moore.
"I'm really worried about you!" Moore replied calmly.
"But you just said that I'm in danger and you need to protect me. How did you change your statement?" Jean didn't get fooled this time. she stared at Moore and waited for his answer.
"Fine! I admit it." Moore saw the way Jean was looking at him and he sighed. "I just don't want to stay here by myself. I prefer to go out with you than to be alone. I'll be all right since I don't need to drive or do anything that will harm me in any way,"
