Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman
Chapter 298 Why Do You Come Here

Moore waited for Jean's answer with his brows furrowed.

A bitter smile entered Jean's face and she spoke,"No, I don't have any plans at the moment. I really don't understand how to adapt to these changes. I really haven't thought about any of it, not even going back to the Wen Group."

Hearing Jean's dilemma, Moore's face lit with an idea. "If you can't solve it on your own, why don't you ask Maranda for help since she is your good friend?I think she would be willing to help you. If you have anything that can't be solved, you can ask her for help," Moore suggested.

Listening to his suggestion, Jean smiled. She was moved by the extent of his concern.

But his suggestions weren't of much use to her because she didn't want to trouble Maranda. She knew Maranda was a good friend but she wouldn't ask her for help until it was an emergency.

After all, the Qin was a wealthy and influential family. The last thing Jean wanted was to get Maranda involved in this mess.

Detecting Jean's expression, Moore realized she wasn't going to use his suggestion. "You should have a good rest now. I'm going back to the ward," he said.

At first, Jean opened her mouth to say something but stopped knowing her words would hurt him even more.

Therefore, she ended up nodding. She walked with Moore outside the ward and spoke in a quiet tone, "Moore, I have no words to express my gratitude to you. I know that you worry about me a lot. You can rest assured that I will take good care of myself." Listening to Jean speak, Moore looked up. "I hope I am not bothering you by interfering in your personal matter," said Moore.

"Stop it! No, you are not!" Jean replied defensively. She was appalled by Moore's thoughts.

In actuality, Moore wanted to say something more but looking at Jean's smiling face stopped him. He dropped the subject immediately.

Both of them looked at each other and smiled one last time before Moore returned to his ward.

Once Moore left, Jean went back to her bed and sat down thinking about her problems.

Soon after, the nurse came in to check Jean's body and gave her a saline drip.

After this, Jean felt sleepy and closed her eyes to have some rest.

In her sleep, she had a strange dream. She saw herself in a dirty and tired condition. It seemed that someone was following her because she ran ahead desperately.

When she attempted to look behind, Jean couldn't see anyone.

Being increasingly scared, Jean started to sweat profusely, wetting her clothes.

Once she woke up, Jean immediately looked at the ceiling with her eyes wide open.

The dream felt so real that it was hard for her to see the reality.

After a long time, Jean slowly calmed herself down and looked at the drip bottle. It was still not empty.

Jean wanted to sleep again, but she wasn't sleepy now.

'It was just a nightmare!"

After comforting herself, Jean took out her mobile phone and opened Wechat.

There were few contacts in it.

Zed's ID occupied the most obvious position. But Jean had never used this application to talk with him.

Looking at his avatar, Jean felt sad. Staring at it for a long time, Jean finally took a deep breath and tried to relax.

Just when she was about to close the phone, she received a message.

At first, she thought she must have imagined it but on further inspection, she noticed it was sent by John.

John...

Seeing this name, Jean felt a bit weird, but she still decided to read the message.

Opening the message, she saw that John had sent her a short video. Seeing the first frame of the video, Jean became more upset.

From the frame, Jean clearly saw Maranda standing in front of many reporters, smiling and speaking into the microphone.

Even before playing the video, Jean understood what Maranda was doing.

'Maranda, why are you so silly? I have told you not to do this!'

Jean played the video with her trembling fingers. Sure enough, the situation turned out to be just like the one she guessed.

Maranda not only invited reporters but also invited Ron and Calvin. In fact, they specially invited reporters from all the news media in H City and explained to them about the video incident.

In an instant, it caused a sensation in the whole H City.

Everyone was watching them on the TV with excitement. All kinds of discussions were being taken place in each and every household of this city.

The scene was sensational. In the face of the sharp questions dropped by the reporters, Maranda, Ron and Calvin, who cooperated well with each other, brought a perfect end to the press conference. Closing her eyes, Jean felt humiliated. The press conference has been over, so it was too late for her to stop them.

'Maranda, you are so silly!

Ron and Calvin, I think you are rational. But why do you accompany Maranda in doing such a crazy thing?'

Jean's tears started to flow. When she was about to wipe her tears, there was a knock on the door.

Hearing this, she quickly wiped the tears off her face. Before she could speak, the door had been pushed open. It was Maranda standing in front of her and this made her feel both grateful and helpless at once.

"Why did you come here?" Jean immediately asked with her face looking gloomy. "You have ignored my words. Maranda, we aren't friends now."

"Jean..." Maranda showed a smile on her face to please Jean, sat on the bed near Jean, and said scrupulously, "I know you will be angry when you know it. So, right after ending the press conference, I came here to ask for forgiveness. Jean, could you tell me what I should do to stop you from being angry? I'm willing to do anything without hesitation."

"Yeah! Jean, don't be angry. We are all sorry about acting on our own. We shouldn't have called this press conference without your consent."Now Ron and Calvin entered the room. The three of them stood before Jean, asking for forgiveness.

"Maranda Qin and Ron Qi, you both conspired against me together, right? How could you do this!"

The room echoed Jean's voice and the three of them stood stock still for a while.

"Jean, don't be too angry," This incident does not just result from you. We three also have the responsibility to deal with it."

"Calvin Li, now you are taking their side too?" Hearing that, Jean immediately widened her eyes and looked at Calvin feeling like an outcast.

"I am just telling the truth," Calvin explained to Jean with a smile. "If we don't take the initiative to clarify the incident, the result will be very severe. We all know that Mr. Qi was hit by someone this morning and now he is in hospital. Clarifying is important or else things will get worse," Ron said slowly in a soothing tone. Hearing that, Jean took a moment and tried to calm herself. Even if she was still angry, she clearly knew that they meant no harm.

Yet she felt uneasy inside. 000000
