Zed's analysis was very reasonable. She had never expected that Edna would cause even more troubles for her despite the fact that she had made the video incident clear. And Edna was even more powerful than Calvin.
'My life seems to be replete with instances and situations of danger, '
Jean thought sorrowfully as she reached home and took a look around the living room.
'When did I start being so afraid of staying alone somewhere?' She asked herself, 'It seems that I have become particularly fond of the company of a lot of people ever since I have become pregnant.
Now, with Zed's parents gone and with him going to work everyday real soon, I will be all alone and only
Moore will be here to accompany me, and he will not stay here all the time and will have to leave at some point.'
Jean sat on the sofa, seeming lonely.
After he had changed clothes, Zed walked downstairs and when he saw Jean's facial expression, it was immediately clear to him that something was wrong and he understood what was going in her mind. He quickly walked over to her and comforted her, "Jean, don't be so upset. Next month, I will take you back to the Imperial Capital to visit my parents."
"Okay. Are you going to work now?" Seeing that Zed was dressed up in a suit, Jean asked.
"Yes. Moore will stay at home and accompany you. If you feel bored, you can go shopping…"
Zed smiled.
"Aren't you afraid that Moore and I will encounter someone from the Bai family if we go out?" Jean immediately asked in amazement.
"We met Hanley yesterday. I think he and Moore have come to some sort of understanding and he won't bother you any more. As for Edna, we have just met her. I already told you that she is going to be very busy these days,"
Zed explained.
"Zed, is Hanley really so useless that Edna has to help him deal with the troubles he causes?" Jean asked curiously.
"I don't know Hanley very well. But everybody from H City knows clearly that he is addicted to gambling. And what's interesting is that he is really bad at it even after his addiction, which is why he does not want Moore to go back home. If Moore inherits half of the property of the Bai family, Hanley will not be able to gamble at will in the future."
Jean nodded. Finally, she sighed and said, "Gary must know about Hanley's addiction to gambling, right? I think it is because Hanley has let Gary down that he wants to find Moore and ask him to come back."
"You have reversed these two things. It was Gary who neglected Hanley first. Then, Hanley became addicted to gambling," Zed explained.
"What? So, Hanley is actually a poor guy. But that doesn't mean he should be so cheap just because Gary neglected him in childhood," Jean remarked in shock.
"It doesn't matter who is to be blamed. Anyway, I have a meeting in the afternoon so I have to go to the company now." Zed leaned over and kissed Jean's forehead.
"Okay. Come back early in the evening." Jean waved at Zed, showing him that she was well-behaved.
Zed nodded. Although he was reluctant to leave, he couldn't have stayed and then left hesitatingly for office.
After he had left, Jean turned on the TV as she was feeling bored, even though she wasn't actually interested in it.
Jean suddenly sighed and went upstairs.
'Since it's safe outside, I can go out and relax with Moore.
I haven't gone shopping for a long time. And Moore seems to have only a few clothes on him.
We both have spare time today. I think it's a good idea that we go out shopping, ' she thought.
Jean walked to Moore's room and knocked on the door politely.
With Moore's permission, she opened the door with a smile.
