Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 197

Since the night, she heard Zed talking with Jesse on the phone, Jean was intentionally keeping a proper distance with Zed.

Jean had no reason to worry, since Jesse explained that her relationship with Zed was merely like a sibling and nothing more. Though she felt troubled whenever she saw Zed's kind face and his pampering tone towards Jesse, she kept reminding herself from stop being mean and jealous.

After all, Zed didn't hide himself from facing Jesse. He even asked her to call Jean sister-in-law.

If he had any kinda feelings for Jesse, he definitely would not have allowed her to live in villa with them. If that was the case, none of them would feel comfortable.

Now that Zed was acting so open-minded and liberal, there was no reason for Jean to be small-minded and keep pondering on things.

"Okay, I will take care of tonight's dinner to comfort your stomach." Jean knew it was not what Zed wanted. She consciously misinterpreted his meaning and responded in a generous manner.

Zed understood just from Jean's words that she was still in bad temper. Feeling helpless from Jean's wilfulness, Zed moved close to her and held her cheeks with his palms before looking into her eyes and asking with tenderness, "You know I didn't mean that, you must be feeling shy, aren't you?"

Jean, Zed's little wife, unexpectedly became attractive for Zed because of her shyness, which was filling his heart with all the burning desires.

"Who said that I am shy? Well, it's nonsense to argue with you like this." As Jean responded, her face was flushing in all red. After removing her head from Zed's hands, she hurriedly moved away.

As Jean was passing by the spot where Shirley and Winner were standing, she noticed that they were looking at her with great interest. The touching and warm feeling she was experiencing a minute before instantly vanished.

Jean made herself unreadable by restraining her feelings. And instead of going away, she stood by the side quietly, waiting for Zed's speech.

Zed followed Jean into the room and came face to face with them. He glanced over to Jean before speaking with a poker face in an unwelcoming scary voice, "Shirley, when you go back home, tell Henry, for Jean's sake, this is the last time I am showing mercy on all of you and letting you go. But I need you to promise me that you will not show up here any more, and you will not cause any trouble or do any of the annoying things. Otherwise, I will not show any leniency to anyone. Do you hear me?"

"Yes, I do." After hearing Zed's words, Shirley's eyes were wet, but she felt relieved and happy and quickly said, "Thank you for letting us go. You must be feeling repulsive on seeing us. We will leave right away."

As soon as Shirley finished her words, she quickly held Winner's hand and rushed towards the door. But Winner was still in confusion.

"Shirley, why are we leaving?" Winner asked with a perplexed expression, "Zed has said that he will not trouble our family, right? Then why are you still afraid of him?"

"Zed is always volatile. Do you want to bother him by staying here and make him change his mind?" Shirley replied sharply with the sad face.

After hearing Shirley's explanation, Winner finally understood and with a sardonic smile, he said, "You are so smart, sister Shirley."

"Humph, if you would not have done negative things all the time, Zed would not have gotten angry so easily. Winner, please consider twice before talking and pay attention to your words, okay? I don't want to see you causing me any more trouble while I'm fixing one." Shirley complained with anger.

"Shirley…" This time, after hearing Shirley's complaint, Winner didn't show any displeasing feeling. After all, what Shirley said was true and there was no reason for Winner to oppose.

"Let's go! Let's go home!" Zed said while glancing over to Jean.

"Okay." Jean nodded and moved towards Zed's side.

At that instant, Jean suddenly crossed Jesse, who had been silent for long. On seeing her, Jean chuckled sheepishly. "Jesse, sorry for making you embarrassed."

"Jean, I think you are too kind on them. And in order to help you, Zed got personally involved, but you stopped him. However, I'm really impressed by those siblings. Gods know whether they will ever learn to restrain their behavior." Jesse sighed as she said in a helpless tone.

"I suppose they will!" Jean said in an insecure voice.

Though it was difficult for her to see her half-sister and half-brother acting differently, she chose to believe in them.

All Jean's concern was focused on Wen family's current situation. As long as Zed wished to, the whole family and their property would easily cease to exist.
