Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 86

They lived in the same dormitory, but didn't share the same major. The relationship between them had been mediocre. Only after hanging out a few times before the graduation ceremony, they got closer.

Michelle's family background was all right. Why then did she only aim for the rich?

She tightened her lips and said, "Michelle, I seldom hung out since I got married to Zed. Neither did I take part in those parties. Besides, the rich guys might not be serious with you, most of them are playboys. Even if you are married to one, you will suffer. So why don't you ..."

"That's because you don't have the confidence to grab the heart of your man. But I do." Her eyes widened. There were expectations in her eyes, which made her eyes bright and shiny.

Jean fell into silence.

"What's wrong?" Seeing her silence, Michelle pouted, "You are not going to refuse helping your classmate and also your good friend, right?"

Jean didn't know how to answer Michelle. She didn't have any connections nor participate in any parties. It was not how Michelle imagined it to be. Jean did not attend upper class parties everyday after she got married to a rich guy. After considering, she decided to tell her the truth.

"Michelle, it's not that I don't want to help you. It's just that Zed and I are getting divorced. I'm afraid I won't be much help." Jean clenched her teeth. She cared about her classmate.

She didn't want Michelle to fight with her just because they had different opinions on the matter.

Michelle put away the expectations on her face and glared at her angrily, "Jean, I was nice to you back in college, wasn't I? I'm only asking you to introduce me some rich guys. Is it so hard for you? When I asked you for help last time, you used that as an excuse too. Aren't I your friend? Are you trying to deny your classmate since you married a rich man?"

"No, it's not like that. Michelle, I really ..."

"That's enough. You can just tell me if you don't want to help me. I'm not thick-skinned. Since you don't cherish our friendship, we'd better not keep in touch anymore!" She said as she stood up and left angrily.

The coffee she left was shaken by accident and rippled. It spilled onto the table.

Jean gave a slight sigh. After all, she didn't have many friends. Michelle was one of the few. She felt a little upset for it to end up like this.

Wait! Michelle hadn't paid the bills yet?

When Jean stepped out of the cafe, her cellphone rang. It was Zed. She paused and hesitated for a long time before she answered it at the last minute.

"Hi."

"Come to the City Hall now."

"Huh?" She paused for a second, "Why am I going to the City Hall?"

"To get divorced!"

Beep, beep, beep ... He hung up.

Jean stood at the crossroad and watched the street with heavy traffic. She put down her hand slowly. Thinking about their divorce made her feel weak.

It all happened so suddenly. Even though she wanted this for a long time, she couldn't help but feel that her heart was sinking into a bottomless hole at the moment.

'Never mind. Just treat it like a bad dream.'

She took a deep breath, smiled to herself and made a gesture of cheering up.

She didn't see Zed at the entrance of the City Hall when she arrived. Looking around, she saw his car parked by the road in the front. Jean ran to his car and knocked on the window.

The window rolled down slowly. A cold face came into sight.
