Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 147 Okay, My Dear Mrs. Qi

Maranda felt too sad to say anything more. Suddenly, she sobbed while she covered her face with her

hands.

"Maranda…" Jean was shocked. She quickly walked towards Maranda, gently patted her shoulder and

said, "Don't cry. If you really like John, then try to make him fall in love with you! Though he rejected

you this time, it doesn't mean that he will reject you forever. You have to think about it, Maranda. If you

are really sure that you won't fall in love with any other man except John, you should have the courage

to try again."

It's the 21th century now. Women chasing after men isn't an unusual thing anymore.

Maranda only expressed her love to John and hadn't taken any action to chase him and make him fall

in love with her.

And because they didn't exert effort to see each other except from their working hours, John

consequently rejected her.

If she really loved him, then she shouldn't give up so easily!

Maranda, who was consumed by her sorrows, gradually stopped sobbing. She looked at Jean with her

red eyes and asked, "Jean, do you really think that John will fall in love with me?"

"You haven't tried it before. You'll never know if you'll never try. Maranda, you are not only beautiful but

also kind. No man could ever resist your charm." Jean sincerely said.

"Really?" Maranda was amused and her eyes sparkled after she heard what Jean said.

When she saw that Maranda somehow rekindled the flames of hope in her heart, Jean cheerfully

nodded.

"Well, I know that you don't want me to be sad and you only said that to make me feel better. But, you

are right. No matter what the result may be, I still have to try. Then, I would not regret because I know

that I have done everything to chase the love of my life." Maranda firmly swore.

"That is the Maranda I knew!" Jean admiringly exclaimed. "If you happen to encounter any problems

anytime, don't hesitate to ask for my help. I will do whatever I could do to help you."

Jean sympathetically said.

Jean had tried her best to comfort Maranda. Maranda clearly knew that anyone, even Jean, couldn't

help her much. Because after all, she would be the one to make her own moves.

But as long as she could ignite Maranda's courage and confidence, Jean was willing to support her.

"You are really my good friend, Jean!" Suddenly, a smile brightly gleamed on Maranda's face. She

excitedly wrapped herself in Jean's arms and tightly hugged her. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

When she saw Maranda's enthusiasm, Jean was stiff for a few seconds. It took Jean few seconds to

get her senses back. She reached her hand out, and gently patted Maranda's back.

"Jean, since he has rejected me a while ago, John will surely keep himself away from me. If I want to

meet him later, I will ask you to act as our bridge." Maranda whispered to Jean.

Maranda's words shocked Jean for a while. Jean didn't expect that Maranda would do what she had

told her to do this soon.

Actually, Jean didn't want to be involved in Maranda and John's relationship.

However, she also believed that what Maranda had just said was true.

Jean had seen John's expressionless face a while ago. It seemed like he wasn't really interested in

Maranda at all.

But Maranda asked her to be their bridge.

Jean was in a comple dilemma. 'The miserable girl in front of me is my good friend. Aside from that,

she had the courage to chase the guy she loves. Should I help her, or should I just let her make her

own moves?'

"Maranda, before I help you, I have to clear something up to you. John and I aren't really close.

Because of that, I'm afraid that I might not be able to help you a lot. After all, whether John would fall in

love with you, really depends on the two of you." Jean reminded.

"I know." Maranda quickly nodded.

When she saw that Maranda was full of hopes and expectations, Jean couldn't do anything but agree

and nod.

'It's my fault. It was I who encouraged Maranda to chase John when she was rejected and looked sad.

It was I who put myself in a dilemma!'

After a while, Maranda and Jean went back to their work places, only to find that their colleagues were

leaving for lunch.

They quickly cleared their desks and went to the restaurant downstairs.

While waiting for their food, Jean took out her mobile phone and called Zed.

Zed answered the phone as soon as it rang. It seemed like he was really waiting for someone's call.

Jean felt shy and her face immediately flushed. "Have you eaten yet?" Jean cleared her throat and

asked.

"I have eaten just now. What about you?" Jean heard Zed's voice that was on the other end of the

phone. She couldn't help but put a joyful smile on her face.

"I will eat soon. I have just ordered some food. Zed, how are you feeling today?" Jean asked with a

great concern.

"I have completely recovered. I just plan to have a quiet rest at home today, and go to the company

tomorrow." Zed heavily sighed and continued, "Jean, don't be too anxious. I know you care about me.

But there are tens of thousands of employees in Qi Group that need to be managed."

Jean knew that Zed was certainly telling the truth. The company will definitely become a mess if the

CEO won't show up for few more days.

When they were in the hospital, Jean declined Zed's request to go back to his company and work. She

was worried about Zed's health and wanted him to take more rest.

Zed really did what she had said and stayed at home for a whole day.

'People shouldn't demand other people to do a lot of things. And I can't demand Zed to do whatever I

want, even if I'm his wife.

As long as I pay more attention to his health, I believe he will not get sick again!'

"Okay." Jean gently said, "But you have to promise me. You can't go home too late or be too tired from

work. Okay?"

When Zed finally got Jean's consent, a hint of joy sounded in his voice. "Okay, my dear Mrs. Qi."

Dear Mrs. Qi?

Jean was speechless and didn't know what to respond to him. After a few seconds, she only said,

"Well, I have to hang the phone up now. I have to eat my lunch first."

"My dear Mrs. Qi, I will pick you up there after you get off work." Zed noticed Jean's shyness from her

tone. "I can't wait to see you soon, " he continued to tease her.

Jean's heart almost jumped out after she heard Zed's words. She quickly hung the phone up in

embarrassment. After a while, a joyful smile gradually showed on her face.

While sitting and looking at Jean's facial expression from the opposite side of the table, Maranda knew

what was going on. She seized that change to tease Jean and said, "It seems like you are fascinated

by Mr. Qi again. I really envy you, Jean."

Jean gently patted her hot cheeks and tried to pretend that nothing had happened. She looked at

Maranda and smiled shyly, "The relationship between Zed and I wasn't close before. We got married

because of business affiliations. At first, we didn't know much about each other. In fact, we didn't loved

each other. But when we got along for quite a while, we learned a lot from each other. It is not until

recently that we learn to passionately love each other."

It was very unusual for Jean to share her stories. She purposely said those words not only because

she regarded Maranda as her friend, but also because she hoped that those words would encourage

Maranda.

Though she still looked unhappy and absent-minded with her furrowed eyebrows, Maranda had firmly

decided to chase John again.

"Really?"

After she heard Jean's words, Maranda's eyes sparkled again.

"There is no reason for me to lie to you." Jean said with a smile.

At that time, the waiter who was wearing a formal suit, served the dishes politely.

When Jean was about to start eating, she was surprised to see a familiar figure from afar.
