Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 234 Fighting Against A Common Enemy

Eva stared at Jesse fiercely. Anger danced in her eyes.

"Don't look at me like that. That is what happened, isn't it? Zed wanted to get rid of you, so he came up

with an excuse to break up with you. To be honest, if Zed really broke up with you because of me, then

it means that his heart still belonged to you. However, you have seen that no matter what you do, Zed

still doesn't pay any attention to you. As far as I know, he has never reconsidered getting back with you

after your break-up. Face the truth without getting upset and then perhaps, you'll find the answers you

seek."

Jesse said to Eva patiently.

Eva retorted angrily, "Jesse, don't bother to explain any more. My beliefs are different from yours. You

have pretended to be Zed's so-called sister all these years just to be close to him. We both know how

you really feel. Please remember that he is married now. So your situation is no better than mine. He

doesn't love you either. What's worse, you also don't have any chance to be with him any more.

I know Zed doesn't love me, and I am okay with it. Look at you. You are still trying. That's pathetic. No

matter how beautiful or excellent you think you may be, you have no choice but to watch your beloved

Zed live a happy life with Jean, don't you? You are getting what you deserve! You are an evil woman,

and you are being punished by the Gods for your sins."

After speaking her mind, Eva burst into laughter.

"Being punished by the Gods? Are you kidding? If the Gods really exist, then you are the one who

should be punished. You are always saying how much you love Zed and how much you hope to get

him back. You know Jean is not right for Zed. He is absolutely out of her league. And yet you cooperate

with her to fight against me?"

Jesse censured Eva. Her expression hardened as she thought of Eva's duplicity.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Eva suddenly stopped laughing. She frowned at Jesse, "What are you saying? Jean and I are on the

same side. So what? Are you envious of that? You are jealous and afraid of us now, aren't you?"

"Envious? Jealous? Afraid of you? Me? Oh, come on! Grow up, okay?" Jesse sneered and rolled her

eyes.

"You are afraid that we will work together to expose you for what you really are. Then Zed will hate you

and he will want to get rid of you." Eva had suffered enough humiliation from Jesse. It was her turn to

criticize, and she was not inclined to be merciful.

"You are joking, right? What Zed really needs is to know about Jean's true colors. Now I understand

why Jean was willing to let you come here. You forced her to do so. Last night, there were other men

when you met with Jean." Jesse fixed her eyes on Eva as she put forward the accusation. She wanted

to study Eva's expression closely for clues.

At first, Eva didn't care about Jesse. But when she heard what Jesse had said, Eva was stunned for a

while. She shook off the shock and then looked at Jesse as she asked, "What are you implying?"

"I am saying I know why Jean agreed to get you here. You happened to see her dating other men. You

are using her secret as leverage. She has no choice but to listen to you. Am I right?"

Jesse said to Eva.

"How do you know.." Eva suddenly stopped and her face paled.

'Oh, no. I almost let it slip.

How did Jesse know what happened last night? I thought it was still a secret between Jean and me.

Jean is not foolish enough to tell Jesse about it.

So, Jesse must come here to manipulate me into confirming her suspicions.

I can't fall for that. She is setting me up.'

Eva thought.

"I do know. And I also know the identity of these men. They are Ron Qi and Calvin Li. Right?" Jesse

gladly went on. From Eva's expression, Jesse was sure that she was right.

"You..." Eva glanced at Jesse with a startled look on her face. Then she asked, "How on earth did you

know that?"

"How did I know?" Jesse smiled at Eva. At first, she couldn't believe the rumor that Jean had gone out

with other men. But this conversation with Eva confirmed what she had suspected.

'Zack had told Zed the truth, ' thought Jesse.

Last night, one of Zack's friends saw Jean sitting with two men and a girl at a fancy club.

The friend sat far away from them, so he couldn't overhear their conversation. But he sensed that the

four didn't seem like ordinary friends.

Zack's friend told him about it on the phone. After the call, Zack didn't wait to ask Zed whether he had

taken Jean to visit his friends at that fancy club the previous night.

It was then that Zed had become angry.

When Zack realized that he might have said the wrong thing, he smiled dryly and started to explain. But

he didn't expect that the more he explained, the angrier Zed would become. When Zed's patience had

run out, he beat Zack black and blue.

Jesse murmured, "So what I thought is right. Jean is really hiding something from Zed. She got home

late last night and didn't want Zed to know what she had done.

But Zed..."

A sly smile played on Jesse's face as she thought of Jean's deceitfulness.

She thought, 'I am sure that Zed is also wondering whether Jean went out with other men like Zack had

claimed.

Does that mean that Zed does not trust Jean entirely? If he trusted her, he wouldn't have gotten angry

enough to beat Zack.

That's funny!'

Jesse glanced at Eva before continuing to think about her next actions, 'If I figure out the truth, I will

certainly tell Zed about it in person.

After that, Jean Wen, do you think you will continue to stand by his side?'

Realizing that she had the chance to cause a rift in their relationship, Jesse looked at Eva with joy in

her heart. She clenched her hands as she tried to settle her enthusiasm. Jesse said to herself, "Jesse

Tang, you must get what you want this time."

"You'd better not say anything to anyone, or I will tell Zed that you once threatened Jean." She stared

pointedly at Eva as she continued, "If you don't listen to me, you will never have a chance to meet Zed

from now on."

"You..." Eva was so angry by what Jesse had said that she was speechless. She glared at Jesse for a

long while before saying, "Since you know about last night, what are you doing here? What is the

purpose of your visit? I know I was wrong to threaten Jean. But I am sure Jean won't be beaten by this

matter. It is true that Zed will be mad at Jean after learning about it. But it won't take him long to forgive

her. He loves her. And then they will be back together."

"Really? Are you sure?" When Jesse heard Eva, she lost her confidence. She didn't know what had

actually happened that night. And so, she just muttered the first thing that came to her.

Then she frowned and thought about it some more. Finally, Jesse sighed, "Although Zed and you were

lovers once, I don't think you know the way his mind works. His wife went out with other men. Even

though Jean didn't do anything wrong with these men, people will still talk about it. Once the gossip

reaches Zed, do you think he will just ignore it?"

All of a sudden, Eva's face turned pale.

Although Eva had been with Zed for many years, she was not brave enough to face his anger.

"Are you going to tell Zed about it? Or are you cowardly enough to wait until he finds out and comes to

question you? Imagine his reaction then. You'd better think about the consequences." Jesse played on

Eva's weakness.

Eva looked very pale. She considered for a moment and then sighed, "What do you want from me?

What are you going to do? Just tell me your purpose. I know you don't like me. You are not here to help

me, are you?"

"Of course, not. As long as you agree to tell me the details, I will make you a deal. So, please think

carefully before giving me your reply." Jesse wore a victorious grin.

She knew what Eva's weakness was. No matter how much Eva loved Zed, there was no way she could

face his wrath. She had always been terrified of Zed when he became angry. And now, Jesse was

going to use that to her advantage.

By pointing out that Zed would get angry with Eva, Jesse had been able to change Eva's mind about

cooperating with Jean instead of with her.

Eva's eyes widened as she thought of facing Zed when he became angry. Then her eyes dulled as she

thought of something else.

'Jean, Zed's anger is something that I can't bear.

I am sorry but it looks like I don't have a choice.

Once he learns of your secret, he will be angry with you. But Zed will also forgive you. After all, you are

his wife.

But I am nobody to him.

If he knows what I've done, he will not spare me. And then, it will be impossible for me to see him any

more, ' thought Eva.
