Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 621

Maranda looked at Jean with great expectation in her eyes. Jean found herself in an impossible situation with no way out. She felt herself give in and sighed within herself. Looking at Maranda, she forced a smile on her face and nodded agreeing.

Maranda clapped her hands with delight and smiled through teary eyes.

When Jean returned home to the Qi Mansion, she paced the room back and forth, troubled by the predicament that she had gotten herself into.

'Both events are happening around the same time. When Maranda and Ron get married next month, Zed and I will be in the Imperial Capital with Zed's parents.

We can't just leave Grandpa Benjamin, father and mother and run back to H City to attend Maranda's wedding.

But I have just promised Maranda that I would attend her wedding. I'm in a real dilemma!

Neither side can be offended and neither side can be refused!' Jean tried to come up with a satisfactory solution in her head, but it was no use.

It was late in the afternoon and Jean was still no closer to an answer. By this stage, she had gotten herself into quite a state with worry. She hadn't even noticed that Zed had come home.

Zed walked up to her and caressed her head. He could see that she was flustered. "What's wrong, dear?"

"Zed, you're back!" Jean responded fretfully.

"What on earth has got you so worked up?" Zed asked as he playfully tapped her nose with his finger.

"I had tea with Maranda this afternoon. She told me that they had chosen their wedding date," Jean exhaled loudly. "It's on the 20th of next month!" she said, dejected.

"On the 20th of next month?" repeated Zed as if in thought. "Is that what's worrying you so much?" Zed smiled with calmness on his face.

"Yes! We have already made plans that we would go to the Imperial Capital and stay with your parents for some time. But Maranda's wedding is also scheduled around the same time. I have been trying to think of what to do all afternoon." Jean looked up at Zed, her eyebrows furrowed with worry. "What do you think we should do?"

He had to chuckle when he saw her sweet face scrunched up like that. "That's not a problem, okay? We can still go to the Imperial Capital after Maranda and Ron's wedding."

"Are you sure that would be all right?" Jean looked at Zed and asked with some doubt in her voice.

Zed comforted her with a gentle smile, "What's wrong with that? We will still go to the Imperial Capital. We will just have to tell grandpa, mother and father to wait a few more days, that's all.

You can rest assured. As long as I call them and speak to them about it, it will all be fine."

Zed's words had reassured her and the worry on Jean's face slowly disappeared. However, there was still a small problem that nagged at her. "But if we postpone our trip to the Imperial Capital, I'm afraid our elders will be unhappy." She thought for a moment and looked up with a bright smile on her face. "You tell them that we will stay with them for a few extra days this time to make up for it.

What do you think of that, Zed?"

Zed reached out and gently pinched her cheek.

"I'll do as you say. So are you in the mood to eat now, dear?

As soon as I came back, Zelda told me that she had called you several times but you didn't respond."

"I..."

Jean stuck her tongue out with embarrassment. "Maranda is my friend and I didn't want to disappoint her so I was trying to think of a suitable solution..." she replied sheepishly. Zed smiled affectionately at his wife. "No, I don't mean to blame you. But I hope no matter what happens in the future, you won't let yourself get so worked up.

Remember, you still have me. I'll face the problems with you."

"Well, I will remember next time."

Jean smiled sweetly and then remembered that Zed mentioned something about food. "I'm really hungry, honey. Let's go to dinner!"

"Okay."

Zed took her hand and together they went to the dining room. As they walked, he looked at her and asked, "Has Moore come back yet?" "Um..." Jean smiled vaguely. "Maybe he won't be coming back.

I hope he spends the night with Avery and doesn't come back tonight. In that case, his relationship with her would be..."

Jean said with a cheeky grin.

Zed looked at her and shook his head slightly. "Do you think Moore would do what you think?"

Jean stared at him with a hint of disappointment.

"Well, I know that he's a gentleman. But just let me hope for a moment that it may happen." Zed looked at her amused and let out a small chuckle. "Well, let's just eat first!
