Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman
Chapter 606 Let's Live Our Own Life

The purpose of Moore doing so was quite transparent to Zed.

What Zed was worried about, was that the situation got more and more complicated as things went further.

He was afraid that things would get out of control in the end.

But Jean and Avery were both pleasantly surprised by Moore's reply. They looked at each other delighted with bright smiles on their faces.

Moore looked bakc at Zed and a hint of smile appeared on his face.

Zed didn't see any sign of sadness in Moore's eyes. He could do nothing but return a smile back at Moore.

The atmosphere in the room became more lively.

Jean and Avery excitedly whispered to each other, talking about things that only known to them.

Zed grew bored so he walked out into the garden and took out a cigarette from his pocket. The thought of Jean and the baby in her belly stopped him from lighting it up. He smiled bitterly and was about to throw away the cigarette.

"Give me that!" Moore walked up behind Zed and took the cigarette from his hand. He lit the cigarette and blew out a puff of smoke.

"I didn't know you smoke," said Zed in surprise

Moore was a role model, elegant and polite. Smoking was something Zed had never thought to see him doing.

"There is much you don't know about me. Zed, don't think too highly of me, you will be disappointed." Moore looked at Zed, and all of a sudden, a touch of sorrow showed on his silky face.

"Moore..." Zed looked at Moore, feeling somehow odd, and asked, "Did you agree on dating with Avery because of Jean?"

Moore didn't expect that Zed would ask him a question like that. He paused and thought about Zed's question then he took a deep breath and asked, "Do you want that to be the answer?"

"No, of course not." Zed shook his head and looked at Moore. "I hope that you can accept Avery with all of your heart and that you truly embrace your relationship with her."

"As you wish, your hopes are the same as mine." Moore finished his sentence then threw away the cigarette butt and asked, "Zed, why are you so worried? Is there something you aren't happy with? You are afraid that I agreed on dating with Avery just because I don't want Jean to feel bad, right?"

"Yes, I was worried about that." Zed didn't try to hold back his thoughts. "Moore, I want to be honest. I take you as my rival. And I never treat my rivals nicely. In the past, Ethan Lei was trying to badger Jean and I taught him a lesson. He hasn't been able to return to H City since then.

But you, I allowed you to stay by Jean's side. I even asked you to be the sworn father of my baby. Even though I wasn't sure if I wanted any of this, I never interfered with it. You should know that if I really wanted to get rid of you, you would never even get the chance to see Jean. But now I am not sure about how I feel towards you.

I do trust you. I trust you so much that I believe you care about Jean sincerely. But I do worry. I worry that you will sacrifice your happiness for Jean. Now seeing you with Avery makes me feel awful. It feels like something is haunting me.

But on the other hand, I'm touched by Avery's love for you. I hope from the bottom of my heart that you will end up happy together. She is a good person, otherwise Jean wouldn't have tried so hard to interfere with your relationship with her. But the thought of you accepting her because of Jean makes me feel uncomfortable..."

"Don't be." Moore was honest with Zed. "I have accepted it. Isn't it the best for everyone? Don't you think?"

"Don't take Avery as some simple-minded girl. She actually worries about you. She asked me who is the girl you love. So if you don't really care about your relationship with her, I think you should end it before it gets complicated!" Zed said, looking at Moore.

"End it? It's just beginning and you are already asking me to end it? That's not how I do things and if Jean replaces out that you said such things to me, you know how much it would hurt her?" Moore looked at Zed and shook his head. "These are not your concerns. I just want you to be happy," Zed said sympathetically.

"I am happy." Moore looked at Zed and sighed. "Really, I'm not lying. I am really happy."

Then, Moore walked away without giving Zed a glance.

Zed looked at him leaving, with a complicated expression on his face.

'Moore doesn't love Avery but he said he was happy with her?

Is it that Jean wants him to develop a relationship with Avery and since he has done that, he feels content?'

Zed shook his head and felt a sudden chill.

'If Moore feels content now, then it only means that Moore's love for Jean is indeed strong.

He could have done this for Jean.

What if Jean knows one day? How sad Jean will feel and blame herself? She is the person who told Moore to start a relationship with Avery in the first place.

My persuasion didn't work. I don't know what else I can do.'

Zed stood there in confusion, he frowned and then he walked inside helplessly.

"Zed, what took you so long?" Jean was sitting on the couch in the living room, with an unhappy look on her face.

"What happened? Where are Moore and Avery?" Zed asked with concern. He walked in front of Jean and continued to ask in surprise, "Did they leave after such a short time?" "What do you think? Avery is leaving our home tomorrow, so of course they should cherish every minute to have their moments." Jean rolled her eyes at Zed but smiled happily. 'Have their moments?'

Zed felt this phrase so misplaced for Moore and Avery!

But anyway, now that they were together, Zed felt kind of happy for them.

"Jean..." Zed looked at Jean and asked, "What were you talking about with Moore before our meal? You looked so happy."

Jean felt surprised and then said with a bitter smile, "After you told me about Moore not being happy with everything, I felt terrible then I went to talk to Moore about that."

Zed looked at Jean in surprise when he heard this.

Then he thought about what he and Moore just talked about. He finally understood.

"As you can see, Moore did not only convince me but also asked me not to worry. He said that he would give him and Avery a go and see how it went. If it didn't work out as expected, he wouldn't force things and waste Avery's time. Hearing that, I finally felt relieved in my heart.

I originally wanted to do this out of good will. And Moore knew what I was thinking and tried hard to give himself and Avery a chance. I am really happy for his consideration for me. So, Zed, let's not mind their business anymore. Let's live our own life now," said Jean.
