Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 438

Jean sighed heavily as she finished the order. As soon as Maranda saw that, she was relieved.

Maranda was not sure as to how they would be able to finish these dishes all by themselves.

But her expression was calm as she sipped tea.

Maranda couldn't control the expression on her face, which changed drastically.

It was inevitable for Jean to notice the subtle expression on Maranda's face. But Jean was really curious.

As far as Jean knew, Maranda had never squandered her money on unnecessary things though she was born in a rich family.

The lunch was just fine but Maranda was not enjoying it at all as she kept thinking the bill she had to pay throughout.

Was the allowance given to Maranda not enough?

Didn't she have a rich boyfriend?

Stupid girl!

As that thought crossed Jean's mind, she shook her head and picked up her tea.

They talked, laughed and enjoyed the meal as soon as it was served.

The atmosphere was very calm as Jean chatted with Maranda and Moore talked with Ron.

"Jean, will Shirley go to jail? She should serve ten years in jail because of what she has done. This is how she would learn her lesson," Maranda was curious so she asked.

Jean and Moore looked at each other and Jean finally decided to tell Maranda the truth. Jean thought that she at least deserved that as Maranda had treated them to a nice meal.

"Maybe even longer than ten years. Police charge will decide this!" Jean replied as she smiled and looked at Maranda.

"What?" Maranda opened her eyes widely and looked at Jean. She then asked,"You mean that Shirley ruined her own life by a mere kidnapping case? How's that possible? Nobody got hurt and she didn't even get the money."

"It's not just about the kidnapping case. She hired someone to get Winner killed," Jean explained and then sighed.

"What?" This time even Ron was startled.

Jean looked at them and nodded. "You didn't hear me wrong! Shirley actually got her brother killed. So it would be nearly impossible for her to leave the police station. She won't be able to get out before she serves those years in jail."

"How ruthless! I've never seen anyone as evil as her." Maranda couldn't believe what she heard. She shook her head as she still couldn't accept the fact that Shirley got her brother killed.

"All right. Leave her be! We are almost done with lunch. Let's sit for a few more minutes before we leave." Jean asked Moore as she was concerned,"Are you alright? Do you want to go back and rest for some time?"

"I'm fine. Don't worry about me!" Moore said and smiled at Jean.

"But you have to tell me when you want to go home! I'll send you back as soon as I can so that you can rest for some time," Jean reminded him again.

"Definitely!" Moore nodded immediately.

"What's wrong? Why do I feel like something is wrong? Jean and Moore, did you both do anything behind our back? Jean, you can't be silly to betray Zed," Maranda reminded Jean as she noticed the intimacy between them.

"What are you talking about?" Jean rolled her eyes and stared at Maranda. "Moore just got out of the hospital and he's still weak. He needs someone to take care of him. Zed and I thought that Moore is not familiar with H City so we should invite him to live with us. What's the problem with that? Are you jealous that I treat Moore so well? Is that why you said that?

Fortunately, there's nothing else between me and Moore. We wouldn't have been able to face you if we actually did have something. What thought is in your head? Moore was hit by my car. How can you even think about us like that when I have just invited him to live with us? Maranda, I hate you!"
