Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 442

"I don't believe it either. I have to expose her lie." Toby stopped the car at the door just as Jean finished her resolute words.

She got out of the car immediately without waiting for Toby to open the door for her and saw Zed who was wearing a dark face.

"You are back? So soon?" He asked with his eyebrows furrowed into a displeased frown. Evidently he had wanted her to stay away a little while longer.

And that was what he had asked her, wasn't it? Hadn't she promised him that she would do so?

"Honey, aren't you happy to see me? Is that a way to greet your beloved wife?" Jean said intimately as she walked over to Zed and stopped right in front of him. Her face was far too appealing for him to continue being angry anymore.

Besides he wasn't angry enough anyhow and couldn't ignore that soft look and tender tone.

So he simply looked at her and shook his head hopelessly in negative.

Seeing that Zed wasn't angry any more, Jean now turned towards Joy, who was standing over to a side. "Joy, what are you doing here?"

She pretended to be surprised to find Joy there and asked as though she had only noticed her just now. She wasn't planning on revealing Joy's schemes just now.

"Jean, I'm here to visit you." Joy held Jean's hand and intimately tried to start a conversation. "I didn't treat you so well all these years. And it's my fault that I did what I did and there is no way to justify that. I agree to that and I agree that I shouldn't have done that. You are such a sweet girl. I was too blinded by Shirley and lost in her and I failed to notice your nice and sweet nature. Jean, please forgive me. I can't face you without guilt anymore and I want to be forgiven. Winner is gone now. If you leave me alone, I think the only choice left for me would be to go on and meet Winner in heaven.

Jean's eyebrows furrowed in a frown. Even though she had just witnessed in the car how shameless Joy was, she never expected her to fall any lower.

She sighed silently over Joy's useless efforts.

To be honest though, Joy's acting was almost as great as a professional. She would have made an amazing actress.

Didn't she fear karma when telling lies? Well, she would, even though she didn't even believe that there's karma in the world.

Zed was frowning too and he was also angry with Joy only.

He was thinking that Jean should have known just how irritating and infuriating Joy was to deal with, but judging from Jean's looks and expressions, she had been obviously startled by Joy's acting.

He had told her to come back later when he had driven her home, but with Jean back already, there was no choice for him but to let out a sigh.

He remained silent as his mind raced to find out a way to prevent Jean from getting harassed by Joy.

Moore was also gazing at Joy with a complicated feeling and there was a mixture of disdain in it.

If he wasn't so worried about Jean, he would have left Joy to her own world of fake emotions and crocodile tears.

For a man as simple and methodical as him, it was hard to believe that a person like Joy could exist.

As for Jean...

Moore felt guilty when thinking about her. In his opinion, if he hadn't made the decision to come back, she would have been out of this mess by now. Even though he had made this decision because Jean had been so absent-minded at the beach, he never would have done it if he had known that Jean would suffer this much. He never wanted that to happen.

Now, silently, he was blaming it all on himself, without letting anyone know and it wasn't easy.

Jean calmed down soon and looked in embarrassment at Joy. "Joy, please don't say things like that. You don't deserve to die like that. I know that Shirley did something wrong but there's still hope for her. Please don't give up on her so soon. There is nobody in the world who can save her if even her mother gives up on her."

'Even if you want to act, I don't want to waste our time watching it! I suggest you stop these crocodile tears and get on with

what you have to say directly!'

Jean thought silently. It was taking all of her patience to cover up her anger for Joy.

Jean's words had surprised everyone due to her seemingly nice tone.

Zed and Moore exchanged a look as if they couldn't figure out why Jean had uttered what she clearly didn't feel.
