Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 438 What Are You Thinking About

Jean sighed heavily as she finished the order. As soon as Maranda saw that, she was relieved.

Maranda was not sure as to how they would be able to finish these dishes all by themselves.

But her expression was calm as she sipped tea.

Maranda couldn't control the expression on her face, which changed drastically.

It was inevitable for Jean to notice the subtle expression on Maranda's face. But Jean was really

curious.

As far as Jean knew, Maranda had never squandered her money on unnecessary things though she

was born in a rich family.

The lunch was just fine but Maranda was not enjoying it at all as she kept thinking the bill she had to

pay throughout.

Was the allowance given to Maranda not enough?

Didn't she have a rich boyfriend?

Stupid girl!

As that thought crossed Jean's mind, she shook her head and picked up her tea.

They talked, laughed and enjoyed the meal as soon as it was served.

The atmosphere was very calm as Jean chatted with Maranda and Moore talked with Ron.

"Jean, will Shirley go to jail? She should serve ten years in jail because of what she has done. This is

how she would learn her lesson," Maranda was curious so she asked.

Jean and Moore looked at each other and Jean finally decided to tell Maranda the truth. Jean thought

that she at least deserved that as Maranda had treated them to a nice meal.

"Maybe even longer than ten years. Police charge will decide this!" Jean replied as she smiled and

looked at Maranda.

"What?" Maranda opened her eyes widely and looked at Jean. She then asked,"You mean that Shirley

ruined her own life by a mere kidnapping case? How's that possible? Nobody got hurt and she didn't

even get the money."

"It's not just about the kidnapping case. She hired someone to get Winner killed," Jean explained and

then sighed.

"What?" This time even Ron was startled.

Jean looked at them and nodded. "You didn't hear me wrong! Shirley actually got her brother killed. So

it would be nearly impossible for her to leave the police station. She won't be able to get out before she

serves those years in jail."

"How ruthless! I've never seen anyone as evil as her." Maranda couldn't believe what she heard. She

shook her head as she still couldn't accept the fact that Shirley got her brother killed.

"All right. Leave her be! We are almost done with lunch. Let's sit for a few more minutes before we

leave." Jean asked Moore as she was concerned,"Are you alright? Do you want to go back and rest for

some time?"

"I'm fine. Don't worry about me!" Moore said and smiled at Jean. Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

"But you have to tell me when you want to go home! I'll send you back as soon as I can so that you can

rest for some time," Jean reminded him again.

"Definitely!" Moore nodded immediately.

"What's wrong? Why do I feel like something is wrong? Jean and Moore, did you both do anything

behind our back? Jean, you can't be silly to betray Zed," Maranda reminded Jean as she noticed the

intimacy between them.

"What are you talking about?" Jean rolled her eyes and stared at Maranda. "Moore just got out of the

hospital and he's still weak. He needs someone to take care of him. Zed and I thought that Moore is not

familiar with H City so we should invite him to live with us. What's the problem with that? Are you

jealous that I treat Moore so well? Is that why you said that?

Fortunately, there's nothing else between me and Moore. We wouldn't have been able to face you if we

actually did have something. What thought is in your head? Moore was hit by my car. How can you

even think about us like that when I have just invited him to live with us? Maranda, I hate you!"

Jean scolded Maranda as she got angry.

Jean realized that it was just a joke but Moore was a decent gentleman. Maranda shouldn't have joked

like that.

Maranda was way too simple.

She never realized the situation before saying anything.

And she didn't think what Jean and Moore would feel like before she said that.

"I..." As Maranda heard what Jean said, she immediately apologized,"Sorry about that! It's my fault."

Moore realized the situation so he comforted Jean. "I'm fine! We are all friends. No need to get so

serious."

Jean saw Maranda's face and she realized that she overdid it. Her anger started to fade.

They were happy during the lunch but the atmosphere got awkward at this moment.

Ron eased the atmosphere as he said,"All right! Don't take this so seriously. Maranda didn't mean it at

all. Jean, you know her! She is as simple as she always has been."

"I'm angry just because I know her," Jean looked at Maranda and added,"What if she had said that in

front of Zed? What would have happened to Moore?"

"I'm sorry, Jean! I won't say that ever again." Maranda got anxious when she saw Jean was angry. "I

won't do anything like that ever again and I won't ever upset you."

"Maranda, I'm not blaming you for anything. It's just that Zed and I have experienced a lot lately. Finally,

our relationship has gotten a little better. I don't want to ruin it. It's lucky that Moore didn't take it

seriously or I really would've never forgiven you." Jean finished her words and then she sighed.

"It's all my fault! I'll punish myself!" Maranda heard that Jean was willing to forgive her so she got

relieved.

"Hmm, I really don't know how to deal with you sometimes!" Jean laughed and said,"Save the

punishment! I don't want to hear Ron complaining about it. . Be good to Ron and everything will be

alright."

"Yeah! I know you are the best!" Maranda got happy.

Jean looked at Maranda and shook her head.

Ron had thought to explain to Jean on behalf of Maranda since he didn't think it was right to fight over

jokes among friends.

As he saw Jean had taught Maranda a lesson, he didn't want to see Maranda get sad.

Ron also remembered that the relationship between Zed and Jean had been tough. If Zed was here,

things could have been worse.

In his eyes, Jean considered Maranda her good friend. That was why she said that bluntly.

Although Maranda was a good girl but she didn't think before she talked.

Although Maranda didn't look bad, she could have been taken as a planner if someone found out what

she did.

It was actually good for Maranda to learn a lesson. Ron was relieved as he thought that.

He looked at Jean and admired her.

Only true friends would do that to Maranda!

Ron understood Jean's good intention even if Maranda didn't realize that. So he didn't say anything or

show partiality to his girlfriend.

After lunch, they parted ways in front of the hotel. As Jean noticed Ron's surprised face towards the

modified Bentley outside the hotel, she decided to exchange cars as it was too outstanding.

On their way home, Moore saw Jean was lost in thought.
