Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 214

Maranda gave him a knowing smile. Then she followed Ron to his car.

Watching the taxi Jean took, go into a villa residence, Calvin was a little surprised. He then looked straight ahead with his deep dark eyes, remaining motionless.

"Sir, we cannot go any further." The taxi driver kindly reminded him knowing that it would be very dangerous to stop the car where they were. He wondered, 'Why does this well-dressed passenger want me to follow the taxi in front of us?'

"Just stop here and wait for a moment. I'll be back soon." Calvin gave the driver 200 dollars, opened the door and quickly got out.

Several strides later, he saw Jean get out of the taxi in front of her house. Lest Jean would see him, Calvin hastily hid in a dark corner, furtively keeping an eye on her.

He wondered to himself, 'Does Jean live here?'

What made Calvin really surprised and more curious was that during the twenty-minute drive, he saw Jean through the car window, remove her makeup and put on a coat at the back of the cab.

Calvin momentarily frowned, fixing his eyes on Jean.

By the gate, she looked around and sighed with relief after making sure that no one was watching her. She flipped her hair before hitting the doorbell.

She had left the house in a hurry earlier and forgot to take the key with her.

While waiting for someone to get the door, Jean had a feeling of uneasiness.

She turned around again, and found only the bright neon signs welcoming her. 'I'm probably just overthinking, ' thought Jean.

As the posh front gate opened, Jesse's pretty face appeared.

Seeing Jean standing outside, Jesse couldn't help frowning and asked in surprise, "Oh, Jean? I didn't expect it to be you."

"I forgot my key." Jean stepped in with a wistful smile on her face.

"How could that happen?" Jesse murmured, fixing her eyes on Jean and then asked, "You're kind of weird. Were you taking advantage of Zed's absence to hook up with someone?"

"What are you talking about? Oh, come on. I just went shopping with my friend, okay?" Jean rolled her eyes at Jesse to hide her panic. Then she asked, "Wait, so you're saying that Zed isn't back yet?"

"Yeah." Jesse nodded and then muttered, "We are leaving tomorrow for the vacation planned days ago. But both Zed and you are out tonight. And yeah, he's not even here yet. Can you at least show me your commitment to it?"

"Don't worry. Even if the whole world fell apart, Zed would be back in time. And this weekend thing will push through." Jean replied with a smile.

Meanwhile, just right outside, Calvin didn't step out from the dark corner until the front gate closed. Looking at the splendid villa, a sparkle showed up in his eyes.

Jean's behavior today had definitely intrigued him.

He couldn't help getting attracted by her weird outfit, especially the way she acted and the way she talked.

In fact, he was impressed.

However, Calvin clearly caught the panic and worry in Jean's eyes when that woman named Eva showed up.

Although he wasn't sure what they were talking about, Calvin became more and more interested in Jean from that moment on.

When he offered to drive her home, Jean refused without hesitation.

Her refusal confused Calvin even more, so he followed her cab without a second thought.

He couldn't stop thinking who she was and what kind of family she came from, the whole way there.

'As Maranda's friend, Jean must come from a rich family, ' thought Calvin.

In Calvin's eyes, Jean was a nice lady. Despite her quirky behavior tonight, for him, her elegance and nobility shone through.

But he became restless, seeing Jean stop at the splendid villa. Even more so, knowing that she actually lived there.
