Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 496

"No, I have verified that. Her attending physician was Elian. You are also clear of his demeanor. It is absolutely impossible for him to lie. Moreover, I believe in his medical ethics," Zed said while shaking his head vehemently.

"Elian?" Zack was taken aback upon hearing Zed's words. Staring at Zed, he continued with a wry smile," In that case, what do you plan to do? Will you help her reach the path of death as she has chosen? Or will you pretend as if you know nothing and let the police punish her the way she deserves?"

"I caught in the dilemma, whatever I do will make no difference," Zed replied and shook his head upon hearing Zack's words. "I am just worried I will be unable to bear the consequences if Jean comes to know about it."

"Zed, you are thinking too much." Zack disagreed with Zed, and said," For Jean, this is not so bad as you think. I suggest you to patiently explain it to Jean as soon as possible. Tonight, I saw that Jean was looking for you. Her eyes was constantly staring at the direction of the staircase. Not seeing you present for dinner made her really anxious. You need to remember that she is very sensitive. Your behavior tonight was weird. She must have already discerned something strange. Perhaps now she is still not asleep. You will probably find her waiting for you."

"What shall I tell her when I go back? Shall I tell her the truth? That is going to make her upset," Zed replied, feeling appalled by the idea. He didn't know how he would explain this to her.

"Being sad will be unavoidable, but I think the situation will be more serious if you conceal this from her." Zack fixated his gaze on Zed. Then, he added," Go back home now. I will open several bottles of good wine for the two of you when you come here with Jean."

Zed stood up as soon as he heard what Zack had said. Staring at him, he said," Why am I feeling that you are driving me away? Is it just because of this bottle of Lafite wine?"

Hearing Zed's silly question, Zack rolled his eyes. "I have collected 10 bottles of Lafite wine produced in 1982. Why should I be reluctant to let you drink it? Hurry up and go back! Don't make Jean worry about you."

As soon as he finished his speaking, Zack pushed Zed and walked outside with him.

"Are you really driving me away?" Zed asked without struggling, in spite of being pushed by Zack.

"Yes, yes, yes! Zed, hurry up and go! Or else, I am really afraid that Jean will start hating me for keeping her husband," Zack replied, trying to sound funny.

"Alright! Keep this bottle of wine for me. I will drink it when I come here next time!" Zed warned as he was worried that the wine would have been finished by the time he visited again.

"Okay, I've got it." Zack pushed Zed, wanting him to stop wasting any more time. Together, they walked to the lawn outside. Pointing to a car, Zack said,"Go back by driving this car! Fortunately, you didn't drink, or else I would have had to ask someone to drive you."

"Zack, do you treat all your friends this way?" Zed felt a little impatient hearing Zack's whiny voice. Then, he added," I wouldn't have helped you get Magnolia's address if I knew that you would be so ungrateful..."

"Zed, it's my fault." Zack looked very frightened upon hearing Zed's words. Afterward, he added," Hurry up and go back, or else it will be late. Jean will be very anxious waiting for you."

Zed couldn't find any other reason to continue staying there. He had no choice but to sigh and get into the car. He waved at Zack who stood outside. Immediately, the car roared past.

'What! He looks like he is reluctant to reach the car. But after getting into the car, he seems very eager to go home. What is wrong with this man?' Zack wondered.

With his face full of contempt, Zack slouched towards his wine cellar alone.

Zed opened the car window and felt the warm night breeze on his face. All of a sudden, his annoyance was dispelled and he felt ten times more relaxed.

'In actuality, what Zack has said is true. I am thinking too much, which is why I am worried about how Jean will respond.

But apparently, Jean has to know this sooner or later.

She is going to hate me if she comes to know about this from someone else.

The best thing to do is tell her myself, ' Zed thought and made up his mind.

As this thought ran across his mind, Zed drove fast towards the Qi house.

Soon after, he got to the villa of Qi Family and parked the Land Rover car in front of the villa.

Zed got out of the car. As he looked up at the bedroom on the second floor, a wry smile was involuntarily shown on his face. He noticed that the light was still on as he had expected.
