Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 597 What's Wrong With You

Jean looked at Moore and Avery in great shock. She hadn't expected that the whole thing would

process so smoothly. She thought that her efforts would make Moore begin to have a favorable

impression on Avery, but she hadn't expected that they would talked about marriage. It was so sudden

that it made Jean difficult to believe what was happening now.

She rubbed her eyes with great strength, and when she opened her eyes again, she saw that Moore

was embracing Avery.

"Yeah!"

Seeing the duo finally being together in a hug, Jean suddenly cheered happily. She held Zed in her

arms and asked happily, "See? Zed! Moore and Avery are in love! Finally, they are in love! I'm so happy

to see that. No, to be more specific, I'm highly excited about it!" Jean ecstatically exclaimed.

Zed said nothing but gave out a reluctant smile as he turned to look toward Moore. Contrary to how

Jean was feeling at the moment, he felt really worried about Moore.

He was pretty sure about why Moore had agreed to be Avery's boyfriend.

Moore was in love with Jean. So when he heard that she wanted him to accept Avery's love and be

happy with her, he was deeply touched and couldn't deny her request.

So even though Moore didn't have any feelings for Avery at all, he was still willing to accept Jean's

suggestion just to keep her happy. He would rather suffer all by himself than upset Jean or hurt her in

any way.

Obviously, Moore wanted to stop himself from fantasizing about Jean falling in love with him.

Otherwise, he would not have been so resolute in agreeing to be Avery's boyfriend. He had even

mentioned about the prospects of marriage someday in the future which was even more alarming and

off-putting than anything else.

The more Jean wanted him to be in love with Avery, the crueler he would treat himself.

'Moore, you are so stupid!' Zed thought.

He looked at Moore with a complex expression, feeling really guilty about the compromise they both

had made today.

Moore had sacrificed his love and happiness to make both Jean and Avery happy. And he had

sacrificed his happiness so as not to tell Jean about his feelings for her.

'Jean has always wanted to set Moore up with Avery and now her wish has finally come true today.

But will Moore fall in love with Avery? Will he be happy?

I guess no. He loves Jean, not Avery, ' Zed thought.

Zed was in a bad mood, because he knew what Moore was thinking about. He wanted to tell Jean

frankly that Moore didn't love Avery at all. But when he saw that Jean was so happy for them, his

willpower and resolution failed and he didn't say anything.

Back in the bedroom, Jean was still immersed in her excitement. Lying in bed with her legs crossed,

she was eating an apple while gossiping with Maranda over the phone about what had happened

today, and her voice was full of pride.

"Maranda, from today onwards, I'm a successful matchmaker. I am so great!" She exclaimed.

"What? Matchmaker? For whom?" Maranda asked with her voice full of curiosity and excitement. She

had never picked Jean for a match-making type girl.

"You'll never believe it! It's Moore and the international superstar Vikki. You know what? They turned

out to be university classmates, and Vikki has been in love with him for several years now..."

Just as she was busy talking to Maranda about the whole affair, her cellphone was suddenly snatched

away by someone.

Jean instantly looked up and saw it was Zed. Wearing a towel, he had just come out of the bathroom

with his chest bare.

"What the hell are you doing?" Jean's face got red with fury all of a sudden. She was somewhat

annoyed by his behavior and couldn't understand what he was trying to do. "Give my cell phone back.

Why did you take it away like that?" She shouted.

"You can gossip about everything and everyone. Why do you have to mention Moore and Avery

again?" Zed looked terrible with his eyebrows knitted. "Jean, I have told you not to force Moore to do

anything he is unwilling to do. Did you forget about that? What the hell were you doing today then? You

forced Moore to accept Avery as his girlfriend, didn't you?"

"What? I'm forcing him?" Hearing Zed's words, Jean burst into anger all of a sudden. "Zed, what's

wrong with you? You were there with us today. And it was Moore himself who said that he was willing to

be Avery's boyfriend. I didn't force him to say yes!"

Seeing that Jean couldn't even realize her own fault, Zed got angrier. 'She's so ridiculous!' he thought.

Then he told Jean in a cold voice, "Jean, if you hadn't said all those soft words in front of him, do you

really think he would have said yes? Friends? Family members? You are worried about him? You care

about him? Blah blah blah! Moore thought that he would be letting you down if he said no. Did he think

correctly?

Jean, you are so stupid! Hasn't Moore already told you that he has fallen in love with some other girl?

Don't you know that? Then why are you forcing him to be Avery's boyfriend? Now, I know that you like

Avery and she is surely a good girl, but it doesn't mean that Moore likes her, too. Don't you understand

that? You can never force Moore to fall in love with someone he doesn't like."

"Zed, what's the matter with you?" Jean was puzzled by Zed's words. She couldn't figure out why Zed

was so angry. She frowned and said, "No, Zed. I did this all for Moore. And now Moore has also agreed

to be Avery's boyfriend. We should celebrate this, shouldn't we? What on earth is it that you are so

mad at? I didn't mean to set you up with Avery, so you don't need to care about this so much."

"Come on! You still don't seem to understand what I mean! Could you be any thicker!" Zed refuted with

anger.

"No, I understand. I know that Moore has fallen in love with someone. He told me that. But even after

so many days, I've never met that girl and I've never seen her. I've never heard him mention her once.

What's more, that girl didn't even call Moore though he was in the hospital for long. I think such kind of

a girl is not qualified to be Moore's girlfriend. She doesn't deserve him! I believe that Moore must have Belonging to NôvelDrama.Org.

given up her. Otherwise, he wouldn't have accepted Avery's love today. A woman's company is very

important for a man.

Avery is a beautiful woman with so many special features. Besides, she loves Moore so deeply. So I

believe that Avery will move Moore and they will fall in love with each other sooner or later. See, we are

a good example for this, right? In the beginning, we didn't have any feelings for each other. You didn't

like me and I didn't like you, either. But now we love each other, and our baby is about to be born some

day. So love can be developed. Don't you agree?"

Jean looked at Zed innocently. She blinked her eyes at him mischievously and smiled.

Zed had no idea what to say. His anger disappeared after hearing Jean's words.

'Oh, let it go. You don't know that the person that Moore loves is you.

So it's meaningless to argue with you about this matter. I should not blame you, baby.

But I can't tell you the truth. I'm afraid that it will be hard for you to accept it. You've always treated

Moore as a good friend. I don't want to ruin your friendship, ' Zed thought.

He sighed helplessly. Now that everything had already happened, it would be useless for him to be

angry with Jean.

But what about Moore?

The thought of Moore made Zed feel sad again.

'Moore loves Jean so much, but she just wants to set him up with Avery. It will be very hard to accept

that. I can never imagine what I would feel if I were him!' Zed thought.

"Zed, you are so strange today. Why are you saying these things to me?" Jean noticed that Zed

seemed to be bothered by something.

Besides, he had even gotten mad at her because of Moore. 'You rarely get mad at me no matter what I

do, but what has made you so angry today?' Jean wondered.

She was getting more and more suspicious that Zed was hiding something like a big secret from her,

which was why she couldn't understand what he was so angry about.

"Nothing serious. You think too much!" Zed said, wanting to escape from Jean's question. "Let's sleep,

baby. It's very late."

Zed lay down on the bed and intended to close his eyes as he said this.

Hearing what Zed had said, Jean got even more suspicious. 'I must know the reason why you are

behaving so strangely today. Otherwise, I am not going to let you sleep no matter how tired you are!'

she thought.

She grabbed his hands firmly and lay down on top of him. She looked at him with a serious look and

asked, "Tell me frankly. I know that you are hiding something from me. What is bothering you so much?

If you don't tell me the truth, then I will be very worried and it will be difficult for me to fall asleep."

"Jean..." Zed was amused by Jean's threat. He sighed helplessly and a bitter smile appeared on his

face. "Come on, I'm all right. Don't think too much about it."

"Really? You are all right?" Jean asked him with her voice full of doubt.

"Yes," Zed nodded his head firmly and replied. "I know that Moore doesn't love Avery and he has fallen

in love with some other girl. So I just think that it's inappropriate for you to force him. And I was feeling

guilty that I didn't stop you at that time."

"Yes, you didn't stop me. And it means that you agree with me doing all that, right?" Jean laughed out

and asked.

"No, I was kicked out of the house by you and then I went to the company. So I didn't know what was

going on. When I came back home, everything just happened. I didn't have any time to think about it at

all..."

"All right. Don't talk about it anymore. It's useless to talk too much. Everyone will fall in love with

someone. It's very natural for Moore to fall in love with a girl. Why are you defending a stranger? Do

you even know who that girl is?"

Jean looked at Zed and asked him in bewilderment.

Zed hadn't expected that Jean would ask him this question. He was completely stunned all of a

sudden.
