Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 589

"Rival? Zed, what are you talking about? What do you mean rival in love?" Asking, Jean cocked an eyebrow, still with a displeased look.

"You heard me! Calvin is indeed my rival in love. The feelings he has for you... I think you know that better than I do," Zed said with a feeling that he was right about all this.

"No, you're wrong. I don't know that." Jean's face tightened as if thinking about what Zed had said. After a moment, she shook her head and said, "I don't care what other people feel for me. I treat Calvin only as a friend. Besides, there is only one person in my heart. That is you, my husband, father of my son."

Zed's eyes lit up. "Jean..." He looked at her passionately. "I'm sorry. I didn't think this through. I'm so sorry that I upset you."

Jean looked at Zed's sincere eyes. She rolled her eyes at him. "It's good that you know you are wrong. Don't do it again."

She was apparently less angry, making Zed relieved.

'Zed, I know your intention of hidding it from me.

But what upset me was that you didn't want me to be burdened by the weight of too many things. At least, you should share some things that I could bear, ' Jean thought to herself.

Zed heaved a sigh of relief and gave Jean a huge smile. "Yes, my dear wife. I won't."

He leaned back into his chair, feeling a surge of happiness. He knew that Jean would forgive him in the end.

Although she was angry, he believed that she knew what he really felt and why he had to do such things.

Then again, he kept it on his mind that things like this should not be kept from her in the future, or the one that would be having a hard time would be himself.

The car drove fast to the suburban area and stopped in front of a private hospital.

With confusion plastered on her face, Jean got out of the car in surprise and looked at Zed, who was supporting her, "Why here? Why didn't you get Calvin into a better hospital?"

"You mean the City Hospital? Once Calvin shows there, his identity will be exposed. Everything and everyone will turn against him," Zed answered as they walked towards the entrance. "Besides this hospital is not too bad. The scenery and environment is well maintained, and there's absolute peace here that the City Hospital doesn't have. What he needs most now is peace."

Hearing this, Jean couldn't help but ask out of concern. "Zed, are things really bad with Calvin?"

Zed looked at Jean with a bitter smile. "He is just a bit of autistic, hiding in his own world and refusing to come out of his own comfort zone." He sighed before adding, "I have already informed his mother, and now she is taking care of him."

"How ironic. It's not easy for Calvin to absorb everything that happened, and no one ever thought that he is unwilling to accept the truth," Jean sighed too. "How did his mother react?"

"Well, I haven't told her the truth. It would be really heavy for her to know what really happened, especially now that her son is in such condition," said Zed. Jean nodded in understanding. When she didn't say anything more, Zed stopped and looked at Jean. Jean stopped as well. "Later I will get Calvin's mother to leave the room, so you can have a good chat with Calvin."

"All right." Jean nodded, relieved for Zed's consideration.

Without her thoughts bothering her, Jean got a good look of her surroundings, and the environment was indeed as nice as Zed had earlier described.

As they passed by empty rooms with opened doors, she noticed that each individual suite had a medium-sized garden inside with a patch of different colored tulips and other green plants and bushes grew on the fresh mowed looking grass.

The place was elegant and yet simple. There was also something about the atmosphere and the beige painted walls as well as the illuminance that made the hospital feel comfortable and homey. Indeed, if something happened to Calvin that ruined his own self, then this was a really good place for him to recuperate.

Finally, they reached a closed door. Zed knocked, and after a moment, the door opened. Jean found herself gazing upon the woman who opened the door. Shallow wrinkles spread across her withered face, and it was obvious that she had worked too much, judging by how her tired eyes looked. Jean assumed that this woman before her was Calvin's mother.

Althought, Calvin looked younger than Zed, his mother, Alina Wu, looked much older than Zed's mother.

"Mr. Qi, who is this?" Calvin's mother asked worriedly as she gave Jean a quick glance.

"She's my wife, Jean. Jean, this is Calvin's mother, Alina Wu," Zed introduced, stepping aside for Jean.

"Nice to meet you, Ms. Wu," Jean greeted politely with a sweet smile on her face.

"Nice to meet you, too," Alina replied but showed of pressure.
