Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman
Chapter 50 You Manipulative Bitch, I Won’t Forgive You

So Eva saw her with Zed at the corridor. It's no wonder that she misunderstood her.

She gave a sigh of relief and proceeded to explain, "It's not what you think it is. Zed was drunk and it was out of his character to do something like that. Don't misunderstand us. There is nothing between Zed and me." Eva was completely relaxed now. She narrowed her lips and loosened her hands under the table. She asked with a softer tone, "Then what about you? What's your feel about Zed?" About Zed...

In the past, she would deny having any feelings for him without a moment of hesitation but now...

No. She still doesn't.

Jean lifted her head up and looked Eva in the eye, "I have no feelings for Zed. Relax. I won't fall in love with him and he won't fall in love with me either. You guys... make a better couple." "But... what if Zed likes you?" Eva continued to ask.

Jean laughed, "No way. How can he fall in love with me? We only married for commercial benefits. Although we have not yet divorced, we are of no use to each other any more." She smiled at her own mockery.

Her sole value of existence, for her one and only family, was being the sacrificial lamb to marry Zed. Once that value disappeared, she's nothing.

As for Zed? He got what he wanted.

Those were the things she said to comfort herself; to lighten the pain she felt in her heart. "Relax. I really don't have any feelings for Zed. I just want to help you; to let you and Zed get back together so I can divorce him as soon as possible."

Satisfied with her answer, Eva smiled and put the recording pen which she held in her hand into the bag. She lowered her head and stirred her coffee with the spoon. She looked up slightly and saw Jean drinking the juice doubtlessly. A cold smile curled the corners of her lips and she schemed.

'Jean Wen, I'd like to see how will Zed react after hearing what you just said!'

...

Eva waited at the entrance of Zed's company. It took a while until Zed finally appeared. She was driven out of his company last time so she chose to wait for him at the entrance this time.

A secretary walked out along with him. It was a surprising sight to the secretary since she never thought Eva would wait for her boss regardless of her social status.

"Boss, I'll bring the car over." She raised her eyebrows and found a reason to slip away.

After the secretary left, Zed didn't intend to stay, either.

Eva had been waiting for almost a day. There was no way she would waste this opportunity to talk to him.

"Zed!" Eva stepped forward and held onto his hand, "Why won't you answer my call?" She pouted and looked at him with a piteous look. She looked so haggard that anyone would pity her.

Zed was unaffected. He looked down slightly and said in a cold tone, "If you're looking for me only to say that, I'm sorry that I'm busy!"

He left her expressionlessly. When Eva saw him leaving, she dug her bag quickly and gave the item to him. She said slowly, "I know you don't want to see me. I was wrong. I'm not asking for you forgiveness but I came here to let you listen to something." She held onto the sleeve of his coat, swinging it lightly.

Zed looked down and stared at the recording pen in Eva's hand. He paused with his eyebrows frowning deeply. He realized something soon after.

He was quiet for a while, undecided about listening to it until Eva played the recording.

The familiar voice was like a relaxing sound made from typing. Each word was imprinted in his head...

"Relax. I really don't have any feelings for Zed. I just want to help you..." Those unaltered words were loud and clear. Their conversation played out smoothly from the recording device.

It was all about how she wanted to get divorced and how she tried to play cupid with Zed and Eva.

Upon hearing this, Zed didn't get angry. He understood something instead. That explained why Eva was in the room instead of Jean last time. Eva was the one who asked Jean to do it. Damn Jean. She dared to push him away to someone else behind his back. He narrowed his eyes and had already decided how to punish her.

Eva played dumb, "I'm sorry. It wasn't intentional. I just want you to know that she doesn't love you..."

"Are you done with your scheme?" Zed turned his face slowly and gave her an impatient glance.

Eva paused slightly and her smile froze in place. She took a step back, "Zed, what scheme, what are you talking about?"

"Isn't that recording part of your little scheme? What do yo think I will do after hearing it?" He said with a sneer, "Aren't you embarrassed with using such a trickery on me?"

Eva's smiling face turned from red into pale immediately. It was as though blood had completely drained out of her body.

"Zed, it's not like that. It's not what you think." She held onto his hand with tears in her eyes. She had unknowingly dug her own grave.

"Take your hands off." He raised his head, still expressionless.

"No, Zed. Listen to me!"

"There is no need." He shook his head firmly and stared daggers at her. His gaze was filled with displease, "I did not dislike you because we had some history. Unfortunately, you've crossed the line. Eva, let me advise you. Stop being delusional because I won't love you and there will be nothing between us. Please restrain yourself." He was done and ready to leave.

"Is it because of Jean Wen?" Biting her lips, she reached out for his sleeve again. Her reddish eyes were filled with resentment as intense as a wild beast. Under the moonlight, her delicate and attractive face was piteous. However, it was not attractive to Zed at all.

"What if it is? It's none of your business."

His answer nearly broke her. That woman was not her match. How could she obtain Zed's heart so easily? If only she knew things would end up like this, she would have returned with Zed even at the cost of her life. Even so, she would not give up!

She would never let Jean take Zed away from her, definitely not!

Jean Wen, the manipulative bitch. She's not a good match for Zed. How come she got to be around Zed? She didn't deserve it!

Zed got rid of her hands gently and turned his face sideways slightly. His face seemed solemn, "By the way, get away from her. Don't ever pull this recording stunt again. Jean is my wife. If you dare to mess with her again, be prepared for the consequences." With that, Zed strode away. A cold wind blew. Eva clenched her hands and gnashed her teeth. She stared at the Zed's back and said maliciously, "Damn it. Jean Wen, you manipulative bitch. I won't forgive you for this."
