Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 74 Take Another Shoot!

"Delete those photos right now!" Mandy angrily urged Jean while pointing at the camera that Jean held.

Jean tilted her head, looked at Mandy, and replied, "I didn't intend to take a photo of you. It was just a

coincidence. I am a photographer, and I was just doing my job. I didn't expect you to appear in my view.

It was even you who blocked the view of the scene I was about to shoot at. I should be the one blaming

you in the first place."

Jean despised Mandy's behavior. Mandy believed that Ethan lost his desire for her because of Jean.

Mandy even said that Jean was a disruptor of couple's marriage. Yet, Jean did nothing to Mandy and

Ethan's relationship.

"You!" Mandy furiously gnashed. She was so pissed. She underestimated Jean who seemed to be

feeble and meek. She couldn't believe that Jean was capable of countering her. Mandy fastened her

eyes on Jean and said, "I appeared in the photos of your camera. They were taken without my

permission. I have the right to urge you to delete them now. If you won't delete those photos, I will sue

you for violating my portrait rights."

"First, I was just taking photos to do my job, then you suddenly appeared in the scene. Second, you

didn't clearly say earlier that you don't allow other people to take a photo of you. You are a public

figure. Well, if there is no private or malicious information involved in the photos, I believe it is not right

to accuse me of an infringement. Moreover, I haven't uploaded and showed those photos to anyone.

Jean softly smirked. Then she added, "Even if I did it, I don't think it was unlawful. Mandy, you knew

well that you are a public figure. Popularity comes with troubles and controversies. Your career is highly

rising, and you're gonna be a star soon. There must be many paparazzi paying close attention at you.

They are much more professional in taking photos of your private moments than me. You can be easily

found and shot by them whenever and wherever you are. So your accusation of my infringement

doesn't make sense at all. You accused the wrong person."

Jean justifiably explained. Mandy found no way to back up her claims.

"Jean, if you think you can do whatever you want because of your rich husband, you are wrong! Listen

to me. Ethan will never like a consequent, second-rate woman like you. Moreover, you are still Zed's

wife!" Mandy figured out a good reply to Jean. Mandy sighed confidently as she felt slightly balanced.

As she got ready to leave and turned around, she suddenly saw Ethan, who was heading towards her,

from a distance.

After she saw him, Mandy paused for a moment. He took out a foundation from her handbag and fixed

her make-up.

"Ethan, had you finished your job already?" The enchanting and lovely smile appeared on her face

again. Her smile suddenly replaced the anger and malevolence that was showed in her face before.

Jean scratched her head. Seeing Mandy instantly change her expressions did not just made her

surprised, but also embarrassed her.

However, Ethan did not focus on Mandy. He just replied a polite smile at her. Then he immediately

looked at Jean and exclaimed, "Jean!

"I'm going to work." Without giving Ethan a time to say another word, Jean instantly took her camera

and passed between Ethan and Mandy quickly.

But Ethan followed Jean.

"Jean, you misunderstood me. There is nothing special between Mandy and I. We are just…"

"No, you were the one who misunderstood me. I actually don't care about what's going on between the

two of you." Jean impatiently replied to Ethan. After a while, Jean wandered and glanced at the things

that were displayed on the exhibition. She frequently adjusted the color settings of her camera.

"Jean!" Ethan's apparent gentle face turned calm that time.

He put himself in front of Jean to block her way. His calm face eventually turned dark, "Jean, you have

just misinterpreted me before. This could be my second time, why not give me another chance? Why

won't we try and start again?"

"Ethan, we are in a public place." Jean stepped backward and added grimly, "We better keep a proper

distance from each other to avoid possible controversies from people.

"When will you divorce Zed?" Ethan didn't care what Jean said to him. He kept on his way and

continued to ask Jean.

Jean was surprised by Ethan's question. Jean raised her head as she tried to reply something to him.

However, after Ethan mentioned Zed, the memories she had with Zed flashed back to her mind. She

was lost in the thought of Zed that caused her to be speechless and empty-headed. A blank and dim-

witted expression froze on her face.

Ethan didn't wait Jean to give her reaction, he put his hands on Jean's shoulders and said in a gentle

and eager tone, "I know that you married Zed because of business purposes only. I also know that he

is not treating you right. There is clearly no love between the two of you. But don't worry, Jean. I will be

right here waiting for you. I will wait for you until you divorce him."

Ethan stared at Jean with his whole heart. Ethan's glowing eyes were filled with affection towards her.

He wished to pour all his feelings out, and let her know how much he loved her. Jean just lowered her

head. She felt as if she had returned to her teenage days, where she experienced her first love. A

bizarre feeling came in her heart.

But, her rational mind prevailed. She pushed him away and said, "Lei Group is in a crucial stage.

Moreover, the Weibo incident has been cleared. The tweet was not posted by me. Now that all things

had been cleared, you better keep distance from me if you don't want the Lei Group's reputation to be

affected again."

Jean stood firmly. She was so composed. Her face did not show any emotions. Seeing Jean's behavior,

it could be easily recognized that she had changed so much compared to what she had been two years

ago. It was like she was a new person.

Nonetheless, what Jean said to Ethan was absolutely true. Lei Group was in a heightened stage. That

night was their company's first ever evening exhibition. If Ethan's intimate behavior to Jean would be

caught sight by the press, the press would definitely make new rumors about them. That rumors would

eventually affect Lei Group's reputation.

Ethan slowly loosened his hands and completely took them off from her. His good-looking face became

a little upset. He fixed his eyes on Jean and shook his head before he said, "Jean, you've changed a

lot. You are so different from the Jean I knew before."

Jean was stunned and frowned after she heard what Ethan said. Her heart was suddenly filled with

sadness.

"People change all the time. Some people have to leave from where they thought they'd live forever.

Nothing is permanent and no one can always be in a constant state. As things continually change, Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

people change as well. Furthermore, we can't change the things that already happened." Jean licked

her lips. Those words reflected her true feelings from all the things she had been through. Those words

were not just her answer to Ethan, but also her reminder to herself.

As things progressed, Jean was still uncertain about her real views about love.

Ethan was the man who had caused Jean's heart to be broken. He was also the cause of Jean's first

love story setback. As Jean thought that she had almost gotten rid of her hopes to the idea of Ethan

coming back to her, Ethan's sudden appearance brought Jean back to where she had been. She had

the choice to start a relationship with Ethan again though. However, she still couldn't be sure about

Ethan. Their relationship could only be another mistake.

If she opted to let all her past go and just move on, would she regret those memories she had always

cherished?

Jean went home before the exhibition ended. Just before she left, Ethan offered to send her home. But,

she politely refused his offer. Last few days, Jean found herself reluctant to think about doing anything

after getting home. After taking a shower, she just simply lay to her bed.

She finally figured out the reason. It was because she was not used to her new environment. She

wasn't able to adapt, that was why she found it hard to sleep comfortably at night. However, as time

passed by, she gradually adapted to her new environment and fell asleep soon after lying in the bed

without thinking about anything. Her massive daily workload also made her so tired; it helped her sleep

faster.

All the businesses in Lei Group were processed quickly. Jean worked overtime for two days just to

finish and pass her assignment. The weekend arrived after the two days of heavy tasks. Jean looked

forward to having a good rest and relaxing on weekend. However, the photos she took for Qi Group

were unexpectedly reported to have some problems.

"Hello! Is this Ms. Jean, the photographer?" An employee of Qi Group who worked in the Public

Relations department called Jean.

"Yes. This is Jean, speaking."

"Okay, we found some problems in the photos you took for our company. Our head department was not

satisfied with your photos. We need you to have another photo shoot again. You can do it anytime

soon." The female on the phone said in an excessively cold, office, tone. It suddenly caused Jean, who

was about to have a meal, to lose her appetite.

"Have another photo shoot?"

"Yes."

"Why should I do so?"

"Please come to our company. We can give you the details and instructions here."

After Jean hung the call up, she completely lost her appetite. Then, she informed John about the call

before she rushed to Qi Group. Since all misunderstanding had been explained and clarified, there was

no need for her to listen about what other people said. All things were finally fixed. She could go to Qi

Group without any fear and hesitation.

But, since Jean had not divorced Zed yet, she was still his legal wife. She tried to keep a low profile to

prevent anyone to make up rumors about her. Some people would desperately make any rumors just to

ruin her reputation.

After she arrived in the Public Relations department, Jean quickly went to the manager and asked

about the problems of the photos.
