Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 192

Hearing someone shout from behind, the two people in the ward frowned and turned to see who was making a scene.

Cheat?

Jean curled one's lip in derision. Cheat on Zed? She never thought that something like this could come out of Shirley.

Shirley was blaming her for something Jean hadn't even done. Nor had she bothered to check whether it was true. Jean thought that Shirley's actions could be construed as slander.

"Who are you?" Moore felt displeased. Who was this sharply dressed woman who had no control of her mouth?

"Shirley Wen, this is the patient's room. Please get out, you are annoying to the patient." Jean meant business and asked her to get out.

"Is my being in your way making you angry, Jean? Jean, how could you be so shameless? Zed treats you so well. How can you go behind his back to see another man and cry in front of him? If you still want to deny your immoral behaviour, then I have got nothing to say, " said Shirley with a smirk on her face. Still standing in the doorway, a smug Shirley crossed her arms in front of her chest.

Seeing her get more and more unreasonable, Jean angrily stood up from the chair, walked up to Shirley and swung her hand back to smack her in the face.

Shirley had been slapped once. This time after verbally humiliated Jean on purpose, she was prepared for what was coming next.

She grabbed Jean's hand mid-way and gritted her teeth, "What are you going to do, my sister? You think, I didn't see that coming? For the sake of our relationship, I won't tell Zed. But you need to have some self respect. Don't let Zed get sick of you and kick you out of his house..."

"Don't worry about that." Jean resisted her grip and stared hard at her step sister. "If you don't want to embarrass yourself, get the hell out of here right this minute."

"Ok, ok, I'll leave you two alone." Shirley giggled out of spite and walked past Jean towards the sickbed. She looked Moore up and down, and said, "Handsome! I advise you better not to get romantic with my sister. She's married and if you do not want Zed to know, I think you'd better get it over with as soon as possible. Or, you will end up pretty miserable."

Shirley threatened.

"Miss, I don't know what makes you think there's something illicit going on between me and your sister. I am just a patient lying in bed and your sister is caring for me, which shows that she is a kind-hearted woman worthy of respect. And you, as her sister, have wrongly presumed and blamed us for something we aren't even doing. It is your duty to figure out what's going on before you make such accusations. If I were a petty man, I could have sued you for slander.

On second thoughts, I really doubt that you are sisters. Why, all I can see is just a woman with an evil soul who is trying hard to set her sister up. No doubt your sister isn't bothered to respond to your little trick. If you are clever, leave my room this instant. I want to rest now."

Uttering all this in one breath, Moore began to slightly pant.

Jean was so surprised at how Moore had a way with words so much so that Shirley was blown away.

How satisfying!

Suppressing the urge to laugh out loud as Shirley's face drained off all colour, Jean pursed her lips.

It must have been a first for Shirley to be humiliated this bad. Jean was sure that she must be seething on the inside.

"You are too weak to talk too much. Don't get angry on insignificant people." By now Moore's pants had turned into gasps for air. It seemed he were having a mild asthma attck. Jean moved by his side to comfort him.

"She is like a dirty fly buzzing around. It's so annoying." Moore expressed in disgust at Shirley.

"You...... You two......"

First the insult that she was at a loss to retaliate, then being treated as if she was not there, made Shirley's face burn with shame. This time, her thick-skinned self melted under Moore's harsh attacks.
