Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

"Jean, what nonsense! How can you even suggest something like that?" Hearing her words, Zed was shocked and quickly stopped her from saying anything more. "What you are doing is mere guesswork. I hope you won't make any solid conclusions from mere

conjectures before everything is made clear..."

"Don't you feel worried when Moore is in despair and fills his heart with resentment?" Jean seemed annoyed at Zed's response as she looked into his eyes. "And regardless of whether you feel worried or not, I am worried about him. I would rather give him hope but I do not want him to continue escaping from reality and denying the truth. Do you think Gary isn't ashamed to come in front of Moore again and again like he has done something wrong to Moore? What do you think that makes him feel?

Why don't you try and imagine what his intentions could be? These things must be solved sooner or later and there are always answers to these questions. There is nothing possible we can do until the truth is revealed. Why not give Moore a little more hope and encourage him to face Gary?"

"What if the truth hurts him more than anything else he has right now? Do you really want Moore to get hurt once again?" Zed asked with a frown.

"Look at Moore! Isn't he already in enough pain? I just don't want him to continue like this. And I sincerely hope that he could bravely face Gary and face the truth." Jean raised her voice and looked at Zed with determination.

"Jean, how can you be sure that the truth won't hurt Moore any more than he already is hurt? What if he falls into despair once again? He has already experienced it before. Do you want to remind him of the scene he was abandoned?" Zed looked at Jean and asked. "No, I'm not sure. I don't have any clues about the truth. But when I saw Gary, he didn't look like the sort of person who would abandon his son like that. Especially in the cemetery that day, I saw clearly... The sadness... and the loneliness on his face. It was the kind of emotions that moved me deeply.

He has high social status now. In H City, all citizens admire him. But he is still unhappy. The very first glance I threw his way, I could see he was unhappy. Generally speaking, he should be happy since Edna has helped him a lot in his official career and has given birth to a son.

Regardless of Hanley's character, he shouldn't be sad as he now has complete family, thanks to Edna. But in reality, he's sad. He's really sad, Zed. he went to visit his ex-wife's grave, and he stood there for an entire day. Even if I hadn't talked to him that day, I knew that in his heart, he still regards Moore and Moore's mother as his true family.

Gary feels sorry for the past and wants Moore to come back. If he has really done something to hurt Moore, don't you think he is ashamed enough to face Moore? But he is still making efforts to win him back. He is such a proud person. I don't think he would appear without feeling ashamed.

I have learned from Moore about the past but I couldn't tell the truth. Moore was just a child at that time. Although he could remember what had happened, he witnessed and judged several things from a child's perspective. I think we should talk with Gary. We should ask him what actually happened."

"Do you think Gary will reveal the truth?" Zed asked her after thinking for a while.

"If he really wants Moore to come back, then whether he abandoned him at that time or not, he will honestly explain everything to Moore. He knows clearly that Moore hates him. Right now, if he hides anything from him, then it is certain that Moore will never go back," Jean confidently replied.

"I won't go back," after thinking for a long while, Moore said. "I don't want to know the truth. I am fine now."

"Moore..." Jean looked at him helplessly and sighed. "We are your friends. I know that you are disgusted. But I think in your anger and hatred, you're not judging him fairly whenever we talk of him or whenever he tries to make an effort. But please believe me. You won't lose anything if you give Gary a chance."

Seeing Jean try her best to persuade Moore, Zed said, "Yes. Moore, you should accept Jean's advice this time. Then you will know the truth. I think you may not want to spend the rest of your life with doubts and regrets. No matter what happened and even if you don't want to forgive him, you can still ask him for the truth."

Moore couldn't help looking at Zed with shock.

After a long while, Moore finally smiled bitterly. "Zed, do you also agree with Jean?"

"I think what Jean said makes sense. She wasn't trying to take Gary's side or be sympathetic to him. She is trying to persuade you for the truth because she wants you to be happy. As do I."

Zed looked at Moore and smiled.

Moore turned to look at Jean once again. She was looking at him with her eyes full of expectation and nodding continuously.

Moore closed his eyes for a few seconds and finally let out a long sigh. "Okay! Since you all said that, I will go to meet him. And I have to meet him right now. Otherwise, I am afraid that I may change my mind tomorrow."

"Okay! Whether you meet him today or tomorrow, as long as you go to meet him, we both support you." Jean was surprised by Moore's words.

"I have a request," Moore looked at the two of them and said.

"What request?" Jean was stunned for a few seconds and asked him with a puzzled look.

'I advised Moore to meet Gary because I was worried about the former. Why does he request me to do something?'

"You know how much I hate him. I am afraid that when I meet him, I will leave before he finishes his words. So, if you really want me to meet him, then you two have to accompany me. If I try to leave before he can finish his words, please stop me," Moore seriously told them.

Hearing that, Jean and Zed glanced at each other. Then Jean hesitatingly replied, "Would that be the right thing to do? It is such a secret family matter. Won't you feel embarrassed while Zed and I are there?"

"I won't mind and it would help me if you were there." Moore smiled. "Is there anything that you don't know about me? Is there anything that I don't know about you two? So, you don't need to worry. It's all fine and I'll go and meet him if you two come with me."

"Okay!" Zed immediately nodded in agreement. "Then you can call him now. Since we all have spare time today, we can solve this problem once and for all. Then we can sleep well when we come back."

"Moore, how about Zed accompanies you when you meet Gary? I think I should go to the hospital and find Avery," Jean looked at Moore and suggested. 000
