Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Half an hour ago. In the deluxe suite at the top of the hotel, Eva thought she could win over Zed in no time but she was pushed away by him.

"Enough, Eva. Nothing is going to happen between you and me. Stop wasting time on me."

He proceeded to walk away from her. Ignoring the shameless woman, he opened the door and left.

"Bang!" the door shut hard, Eva's body trembled and tears returned to flow down her cheeks. She crouched on the floor and cried.

"What did I do wrong? Why can't we be together? Am I not good enough for you? How can Jean be better than me? What did she have that I don't? whimpers......" After walking out of the hotel, Zed took out his phone and started calling Jean. At first his call could go through but it changed to the busy signal almost instantly.

He wasn't going to be angry at her but at this point, his rage said otherwise.

"Damn it, where did she go? Did she really go out to get other friends?" How dare she leave him alone with Eva.

He went searching by the seaside but Jean was no where to be seen.

"Was that woman trying to drown herself?"

"I don't know. She was still breathing when she was rescued, she should be fine."

Zed felt nervous as he overheard the conversation. He was worried that something might have happened to Jean.

When he decided to ask the passers-by who they were talking about, they were already far gone.

He frowned his eyebrows and slowed his pace down towards his car. He got in his car, turned on the GPS to locate her but to no avail. He could not locate her if her phone was powered off. He threw his phone towards the passenger seat, clenched his fists as he hit the steering wheel hard.

He started the car and was ready to head back.

The car drove on the road slowly. Having passed two traffic lights, he saw a female figure resembling that of Jean's, he squinted to make sure.

Ethan came into his sight out of nowhere and he hugged Jean!

"So she went for him?"

Witnessing all that, Zed was so furious that his veins popped. He hit the brake, opened the door and walked towards them.

Zed walked up to them and grabbed Ethan by his hand. He twisted it very hard and moved it away from Jean.

"Ouch!" Ethan cried out in pain. The moment he saw Zed, his eyes widened, "Zed? I was going to get even with you!"

Zed pulled away Ethan and held Jean into his arms. He put his hands on her shoulders and said in a deep voice, "Go home!"

Sensing the anger in the air, Jean knew she had to stay quiet. She walked with Zed towards his car.

They did not walked far before Ethan stopped them. He stared at Zed, outraged, "Why are you taking her away?"

"She is my wife, I have every right to take her with me! But you, why are you stopping us?" Zed let go of Jean's shoulders and pushed her to the side a bit. "Calm down, both of you......" Jean stumbled a bit. She tried to explain everything but it was too late. Those two had already started exchanging blows.

"No, don't fight! The police is going to arrest both of you if you continue, stop it, Ethan, Zed!"

Jean shouted helplessly but they continued to fight as if they didn't hear her.

At the end of her wits, Jean covered her head with both her hands, ran between them and shouted, "Stop it!"

The two raised fist almost hit her but luckily they both stopped in time.

Two seconds later, Jean removed her hands when she saw the two stop fighting. She grabbed Zed's hand and dragged him into the car. She drove away as fast as she can. "Jean, I will wait for you to divorce that bastard, I will treat you well!"

Ethan's loud disclaim can be heard from behind.

Jean wanted to bury her head to the steering wheel. She took a glimpse of Zed. Words could not describe his furry. The atmosphere in the car was suffocating and terrifying.

Not a single word was said along the way, she sped up to the villa. When she got out of the car, she saw the package sent by her father. She didn't have to open it to know what's inside it. She walked into the villa with the package and casually threw it on the tea table. She walked into the kitchen, placed any edible that she could find into the pot to cook and flavored them with the seasoning from instant noodle's package. Minutes later she took out the small pot and started wolfing it down on the couch.

Zed watched her finished her meal in silence. He threw her the first aid kit when he saw her put down her chopsticks.

"I'm sorry, I was too hungry, I will patch you up right now." Jean explained as she wiped her lips. She then grabbed the first aid kit and squatted before him.

His left cheek was bruised and her chest was also hit. Jean sterilized it carefully with alcohol, applied some medication and then placed band-aid on his wounds.

"Done."

She announced softly. When she looked down to tidy up the first aid kit, her hand was suddenly grabbed by him. Due to the injuries on her sole, she couldn't keep her balance and fell onto his lap. "How can you go out with someone else while married to me?"

He surpassed his anger and questioned her coldly.

She shook her head and said, "It's not what you think, I was taken by the wave out of carelessness and Ethan rescued me."

"Ethan ?"

He would not stand nor allow such intimacy!

"Well, it was Ethan Lei who rescued me and sent me to the hospital. I was too hungry and tired to talk so I did not explain the situation to him. He might have misunderstood something, so......" Her voice was getting softer by the minute. She was almost whispering to herself by the end of her explanation.

"What is your relationship with him?" He glared at her, making her unable to lie.

She felt guilty for some reason. She licked her lips before raising her head to looking at him. She asked "You mean, the past or the present?"

Zed said nothing but his glare was more than enough to serve as a warning.

Jean swallowed her saliva and explained in a low voice.

"We used to date but we broke up two years ago."

She looked at him again and continued, "We haven't been in touch since then. The party you took me last time was the first encounter since my break up with him."

As it turned out, Ethan was her ex-boyfriend.

Zed got angrier but he was able to contain his anger to himself. He pushed the her away.

Jean lost her footing from the pain of her injury and stumbled to the floor.

He did not intend to hurt her as he did not know that her feet was hurt. After noticing the redness on her sole. He felt sorry for his action and offered his hand to try to help her up. "Don't bother."

She was slightly upset. She slapped his hand away and stood up on her own. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
