Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 476

"Do you really find it hard to meet him?" What she heard really shocked Jean. She looked at Zed first in amazement, then gave a cursory glance to Moore.

Suddenly, she smiled, as if something had dawned on her. "Zed, I know that you can help me, can't you?"

"I'm sorry, Jean. I can't help you in this matter!" Zed looked at her and shook his head, denying her belief. "I have never had any dealings with him. And even though I have met him once, I was only a child at that time. If you think that we are friends, then you're mistaken. So, I am sorry that I cannot help you meet him."

"What do you mean? Even you can't help me?" This was the first time Zed was saying that he couldn't help her and Jean was really shocked. This was unlike Zed.

"Yes. I am sorry. I can't do anything about it. Too many bodyguards surround him and he is well protected. If any stranger tries to get near him, he is going to be thrown away like a rag doll in a matter of seconds. He is almost untouchable." Zed sighed.

"You're right, Zed." Jean suddenly seemed to have an idea. "You can't. But Moore can help me get through to him. As long as I go with him, no one will stop me from meeting Gary." Jean's eyes brightened and she suddenly became excited as if she was proud to have come up with such a great idea.

"Why do you want to meet Gary? After all, Edna has already said that she will give us an answer tomorrow." Seeing her so insistent on meeting Gary, Moore could not help asking her with a puzzled look.

"To be honest, I don't believe her." Jean replied frankly,"Hanley is her son. And from the way he behaves, we can easily draw the conclusion that he is a spoiled brat, which means he's pampered. So, I don't believe that Edna will really try to punish him."

What Jean was saying was impressively perceptive. Moore gave her three cheers inside his heart.

He knew what Jean meant. Hanley was a spoiled brat. But it wasn't Edna who had spoiled him. What mattered was the fact that

among all spoiled children ever, Hanley was undoubtedly the craftiest!

Even though Gary was remarkably powerful and knowledgeable, he still couldn't guarantee Moore's safety. He already knew that Hanley would cause too much trouble to Moore and make his life a living hell.

And he couldn't have stopped Hanley by punishing him

because the person who had actually spoiled Hanley was his own mother, who was eighty years old and was always threatening him with her life.

Moore clearly knew and understood everything about the Bais. With that sort of knowledge, he did not expect any good from them and didn't want to get close to them.

Seeing that Jean was so determined, Zed did not know what to say or do. All he could do was heave a sigh inside his heart and pray that nothing would happen to Jean.

Sometimes, he actually hoped that Jean was slightly foolish. That way, she wouldn't be bothered by these things and would let them go.

Everyone knew that Edna would not really punish Hanley, because she had no power to do that despite the fact that Hanley was her son.

So, they had to ignore what she was saying and acting.

But Jean was not going to let it go.

Suddenly, Moore broke the silence,"Where did you go? Why did you come back so late?" He had seen that the atmosphere was frustrating and suffocating, so he immediately changed the subject, earning a quick, strange glance from Jean. Without saying anything, she just held his arm and signaled him to walk outside.

The way she was acting was odd, and Moore got confused. He cast a glance towards Zed in puzzlement, seeking an answer about what to do next.

Zed gently shook his head in return, signaling him not to ask anything and just to go on.

What Zed had done did worry him even more.

Together, they walked outside where Toby was standing next to the sleek Rolls Royce Phantom with his hand covered in a bandage. He was talking to Gregory.

Seeing the three of them arrive outside, Toby and Gregory immediately stopped talking and greeted them politely.

They sat down in the back as Toby and Gregory got in the front.

Once inside the extended wheel-base car, Zed took out a bottle of wine and poured two glasses with a flair. He handed a glass of wine to Moore. "Come on. Drink up. You'll feel refreshed."

"What about me?" There were only two glasses and Jean complained as soon as she saw that.

"You are pregnant now. You can't drink until the baby comes," Zed replied.
