Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman
Chapter 220 Overwhelmed By Grief

In spite of the agitation inside Zed's mind, Eva was completely unaware of the fact she was unwelcome here.

She flirtatiously took off her big sunglasses and proceeded closer to Zed. She flashed him an alluring smile and walked in light steps to look seductive. 'Eva, don't you feel any shame at your own actions?' Jean wondered.

'I won't stop you if you want to come here. But can't you pretend to behave a little decently? Just stop being so obvious. It seems that everything else disappears when you see Zed. You look so thirsty for love. It's like you are worried that others wouldn't know you came here just for Zed.'

Eva just humiliated Jean not even noticing she was present.

"Zed......" Eva went on. With her snowy white arms stretched out, Eva greeted Zed with passion. She felt a strong sense of honor and excitement as if she had been invited here by Zed. The whole thing looked funny to Jean, so she covered her face to stop herself from laughing.

'Eva never behaves modestly. Is she really Zed's first lover?

Why do I doubt about this?' Jean thought to herself.

"Zack......" With his eyebrows furrowed, Zed abruptly called out for him.

Zack was still pissed at what happened, but moved hurriedly and gave a crisp answer to Zed, "Yeah......"

"You should replace a way to send that woman away if you want to get a chance to approach Jesse." After these words came out from Zed's mouth, Zack was overcome by relief and hope.

"Yes, I could do that," he replied. However, Zack's excitement only lasted for two seconds, and he looked hopeless once again after seeing the woman Zed was referring to.

"Is that difficult for you?" Jean leaned and asked seeing the shock on Zack's face.

She wondered why someone as strong as Zack would look so shocked about dealing with a petit woman.

"No Jean, you have no idea how hard this task is. Zed still regrets dating this woman. Today you may get to see how shrewd she is. Zed is overwhelmed by grief for having dated her ever before," Zack replied in despair.

Jean nodded understandingly after hearing his words, although deep down she didn't understand much.

She heard that it was Eva who had dumped Zed. But she didn't know the exact details of their relationship.

'Why is Zed overwhelmed by grief?

Is it because Eva keeps badgering him?' Jean asked herself.

"In truth, Eva wished to come back together with Zed after their breakup. However, Zed played tricks to stop her from following him back. Zed wanted to break up with her as soon as they started dating, but Eva didn't take the hints. No matter what he did, she assumed he still loved her which was so strange." Žack added this seeing the confusion of Jean's face.

"Oh......" she replied. 'So that's what happened between Eva and Zed, 'Jean thought.

All of a sudden, things started to make sense to Jean.

So basically, Zed didn't care much about Eva. However, Eva still had feelings for him.

If Zed had really loved her, Eva would have happily met his parents and married him by now.

Now to Jean, it seemed that Eva wouldn't get any respect from Zed.

Suddenly, Jean felt a tinge of sympathy for Eva who was stopped outside the door. Eva was fuming with rage on being stopped like a criminal.

'I'd better not show any compassion for my husband's ex,' she thought.

Jean diverted her attention from Eva to Zack and asked, "What do you intend to do? After all, she is just a girl so you can't just push her away. Or wait, shall I deal with her? And you can go ahead if all my attempts fail?"

Zack's gloomy face suddenly glowed with excitement. He gratefully looked at Jean and said, "That's great! You are the best. I know I can count on you."

After saying this, Zack bowed down to thank her.

Seeing this, Jean smiled with her lips pursed and walked towards Eva's direction.

Eva was still very furious at being stopped outside the door. Suddenly, a thought occurred to her when she saw Jean walking towards her.

"Jean, I am so happy to see you here! They just won't let me in. Please help me......" she said with a cute pout.

Eva heaved a sigh of relief and ran towards her, as she thought Jean was going to be her savior.

Suddenly, Jean stopped walking ahead and eyed Eva closely.

"Eva, I sent you the address as I promised. Now if you want to speak with Zed, you can only rely on yourself. I did my best to help you. Now I am not obliged to do you any more favors."

Eva's countenance suddenly changed when she discovered that Jean had turned her back on her. Eva furiously stared at Jean and blurted, "Jean, what do you mean? You are the one who asked me to come over here, and now you are reluctant to help me. Aren't you afraid what would happen if I show Zed the video?"

"Eva......" Jean said feeling shocked. After thinking, Jean busted out laughing, "You won't get a chance to see him, then how can you show him the video? To be frank, I shouldn't have promised you anything... I won't be misunderstood by Zed, no matter what you do. And for your information, three people were present when it happened. Besides, the club had monitors, so don't bother. Hence, your threat means nothing to me."

"You......" Eva stammered and her face turned more livid. She stared at Jean and asked her with fury, "So you intentionally let me come here just to have a laugh?"

"I am not that bored, " Jean said casually. In actuality, Jean promised Eva that she would give her the address because Eva shot a video of how she behaved in front of two men in the club the other night. Eva came there so unexpectedly that Jean was totally muddled by her threat.

After she left the club, Jean regretted the promise she made. She went home and contemplated a lot before actually giving her the address.

Jean figured Zed wouldn't reciprocate her feelings, hence it wouldn't be harmful to give her the address.

Deep down she had worried about Jesse replaceing the video. She knew Jesse wouldn't think twice before using this video against her.

In all honesty, Jean didn't have to worry at all, because she hadn't done anything wrong. She behaved that way in front of two men in the club only to help Maranda.

Maybe Zed would be a little disappointed on replaceing this out, but the fight couldn't be that bad. They would sit and sort it out, so she didn't feel threatened by Eva's words.

Jean had determined to not give others any chance to take advantage of her since she discerned what kind of person Jesse was.

"Jean, I have kindly reminded you that Zed is a very narrow-minded person. Aren't you afraid that I will tell him the truth?" Slowly Eva realized her words were falling on deaf ears. In spite of this, she continued with her threats.

"Fine. I can help you make an appointment with Zed if you don't succeed in meeting him today. Then you can talk to him to your heart's content," said Jean while she passed Eva a cold look.

"Son of a bitch, you are really nasty." Eva insulted her back. Jean's replies had angered Eva.

'I made a mistake by belittling Jean, who is not as foolish as I expected.

Now she is unafraid of my threats! Who the hell has trained her to become so brave?'

"Okay Jean, I am aware that Jesse is also here. She means a lot to Zed, doesn't she? In fact, I am pretty sure she means more to him than you do. So stop with your retorts because I won't be so kind to you if you don't do as I tell you to do. You can only imagine what a disaster it would be if I show the video to Jesse. It would be foolish of you to think that you can continue to be a part of Qi Family after this video is seen by Zed."

With her eyes gleaming, Eva threatened Jean viciously and felt a tinge of success.
