Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman novel Chapter 215

Jesse stared at Jean and a hint of smile showed at the corner of her lips. "Then you tell me. What was I going to say?"

"Let me ask you a question, What do you think of Eva?" Jean sighed and looked at Jesse.

"Eva?" Jesse thought about it for a while and finally remembered. "She was Zed's first girlfriend. Wait... didn't they already break up a long time ago? Why are you bringing this up now and out of the blue?"

Why was it necessary to mention Zed's past. Jesse was in utter confusion.

"Her face, figure, charm and the Xu Group behind her... she is pretty famous in H City, isn't she?" Jean kept asking with a smile.

"Yes. You are right. Eva was Zed's first love. If Eva wasn't a standout woman, Zed wouldn't be interested in her and make her his girlfriend." Jesse agreed and nodded, "But to my knowledge, they did not last....."

"It doesn't matter if it's long or short. Then came the international superstar Selena, I think you know her!" Jean continued with her smile.

"Of course I know Selena. Who doesn't? I love her acting...... Wait, are you going to tell me that she had a little something with Zed?" Jesse's eyes widened with shock as she asked. She moved and sat closer to Jean.

"Yes, not a long while ago, Selena went to Zed's office and showed Zed that she liked him. That brazen bitch didn't wait for fate and took matters into her own hands......" Jean paused with a bit of sadness.

Her own husband was coveted by a lot of other women, and it happened over and over again. This feeling was hard to explain or even identify.

"Damn that shameless bitch! Didn't she know that Zed was already married to you?" Jesse was filled with anger and said furiously.

"Of course she did! Which was exactly the reason why she behaved so boldly earier!" The look on Jean's face was uglier than when someone was crying..

"What do you mean?" Confused, Jesse looked at Jean and asked.

"I mean, she, like many other women, thought that it was beneath him to marry someone like me. That he deserved better." Jean shruggled her shoulders and explained powerlessly.

"What?! Who did she think she was? Did she think that she was the only one good enough for Zed?" Jesse said with loathing.

"So, Jesse, it doesn't matter if you know a man well or not. The thing is that you can't think too highly of yourself and become egotistical. No matter what Eva or Selena did to seduce Zed, He didn't fall for it." A smile showed on Jean's face as she concluded.

Jesse frowned especially when she saw the uncaring smile on Jean's face and a sense of disgust came over her.

This woman in front of her not only didn't feel sorry for not knowing Zed well but felt complacent about Zed not dumping her.

"Jean......" Jesse sighed and wanted to say something, but eventually changed her mind and swallowed the words she was trying to say.

Whatever, now that she didn't realize her mistake, she might as well continue.

After all, these kinds of things should be the least of her worries.

"Stop worrying about us, Jesse. Zed and I will be just fine." Jean patted on Jesse's shoulder and comforted her, "I know that I'm simple, even foolish sometimes. But I don't want to fight those women. If Zed didn't care for me, then anything I do would be in vain. To be frank, what a woman really wants most is a man who loves her with his heart and soul. The rest are not so important. They're just distractions."

Jesse couldn't help but shiver as she looked at Jean in astonishment.

It was true that the impression she had of Jean was as a dumb, simple and innocent person who cared about nothing.

But she knew better than anyone what the most important thing was. And she knew what she really wanted.

No wonder why, when she first came here and interacted with Zed, Jean didn't go to them and cotton up to her but stood aside and observed.

When did Jean become so friendly with her?

It must be after that heart to heart conversation at the garden that made Jean feel safe about her!

'Jean, you really are someone.'

Jesse felt her heart tighten when she picked up a sense of complexity in Jean's eyes.

It was right when the two were caught in a short but awkward silence that Zed's car pulled into the yard.

Jean felt really happy and did a little skip, going outside to greet her husband.

"Welcome home." Jean wrapped her arms around Zed and gave a big smile.

"You look pretty happy today. Are you having fun?" Zed grabbed her and held her in his arms.

"Hmmm...... It wasn't so bad." Jean said. She looked up at Zed and asked, "Have you had dinner yet? Do you want me to make you something to eat?"

"No, thanks, I just came back from a feast." Zed pinched Jean's nose gently and asked, "Why didn't you wait for me so we can take a shower together?"

Jean blushed as she entered living room with Zed. When she saw Jesse looking at her with her big eyes, Jean felt so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole and burrow herself in it.

'Stupid Zed, why do you keep flirting with me and pay no attention to the time, place and if someone was listening?

What if Jesse heard it? She is going to make fun of me and I'll never hear the end of it.'

"Zed, why are you home so late? Will you be here tomorrow morning?" Jesse didn't ignore the embarrassment that Jean was feeling. She even raised her voice and asked.

"Don't worry. I know that it's not easy for you to come and play with Jean. I definitely won't let you down tomorrow. Enough talking. I am going to take a shower." After that, Zed grabbed Jean and carried her in his arms all the way up to their room.

Jean looked back quickly and happened to see the sadness on Jesse's face. It was too late for Jesse to hide it.

Jean felt something was off and her eyebrows knitted together.

"What's the matter? Are you upset that I came home late?" Zed asked, as he saw the look on Jean's face.

"No I am not! Now you go and take your shower first." Jean pushed her CEO husband into the bathroom and then collapsed onto the bed. She couldn't get rid of Jesse's sad look earlier downstairs..

'Was it because of jealousy or was it because Zed ignored her?

Is there any difference between the two?

Either way, that is not a reasonable emotion for Jesse to have. She no longer has the right to feel that way.'

.Jean smiled at the irony. It seemed that the thing she had feared had finally happened.

But that day in the garden, seeing the expression that Jesse wore on her face and the emotions she may have been having, Jean could tell that she wasn't lying!

This showed that Jesse's acting skills were better than those of Selena.

Jean sighed, 'Why couldn't she and Zed have some peaceful time together?

It was hard not to be disturbed by Selena, and now came Jesse whom Zed cared about more than any other woman.
