Chapter 249 I Won't Compete With You For The Belongings Of The Wen Family
While Jean and Calvin were in silence, they heard some footsteps coming from the front of the place,
which was followed by a voice of surprise, "Jean, why are you here?"
Hearing the familiar voice, Jean was startled, and at once terrifyingly she looked ahead, towards the
person coming from the front.
With some bags of food in his hand, Winner frowned, and said while staring at her agonizingly, " You
are here because you knew that dad is going to be on a death bed, and you want to compete for the
Wen family's inheritance? But you must remember that I am the only inheritor of the Wen family, and
none of you are qualified to compete with me for the family's property!"
"Winner, what nonsense are you talking about?" When Jean saw that Winner was talking nonsense
regardless of the occasion, without understanding the severity, instantly she stopped him. "He... where
is Henry now? Take me there quickly."
"Why do you want to go there?" Winner impatiently asked her, while staring at her with suspicious
eyes.
"Ha! Why I want to go there?" Immediately Jean laughed but coldly she said, "Even though he never
treated me as a daughter, I want to go and see him for the last time. And don't worry, I won't compete
with you for the belongings of the Wen family."
"Really?" Winner fixedly stared at her and asked her with doubt.
On seeing Winner's reaction, suddenly her heart was filled with anger. If Calvin had not been here, she
would have tapped Winner's head. How could he be so suspicious of her? How could be care only
about the belongings of the Wen family at the moment?
"If I am saying no, then I won't. Believe it or not!" Jean said impatiently, as she was getting fed up with
Winner's ridiculous query.
When Winner realized that Jean didn't seem to be lying, he was relieved. He walked up to Jean with a
big smile on his face and said, "Sister Jean, since you are here to see our dad, do you have any money
with you?"
Yesterday, when dad had a sudden onset, then as soon as possible he had to have an operation, so he
was sent to the intensive care unit immediately. All the money we had at our home was brought here.
So now, none of us have any money ..."
Winner said pitifully, and he was almost on the verge of crying, eyes filling with tears.
Jean noticed that Calvin was looking at them with great interest and he had heard everything that they
had discussed recently, with that Jean's face grew hot red instantly in embarrassment. She reached out
to Winner who was acting disgracefully in front of a stranger and tugged his clothes towards her, To
remind him that there was an outsider present there. Winner had better be careful and don't be a
subject matter of ridicule.
Winner blinked and saw Calvin looking at them gently with a faint wily smile.
"Sister Jean, he's..."
Winner's eyes were suddenly sparkling like a diamond and he looked at Calvin in order to check him
out all over. As a result, his face was full of excitement.
'This man looks extraordinary and handsome. Plus the clothes he is wearing are brand-name clothes
and they must worth at least one million. He must be from the wealthy family. And there is no
comparison between the people that I know and him. He seems to belong to a well-to-do family.'
Winner was even more excited simply at that thought.
'How on earth does Jean know such a rich man?
If she was to rely on her good fortune to be married to Zed once, then certainly this time it's not just
luck that she know such kind of wealthy man.
Does that mean that I should follow Jean to get some benefit from this man?
This man standing in front of me, having such a forbearing and good looking appearance, seems to be
better-tempered and easier to get along with than Zed.'
After these thoughts, Calvin instantaneously turned into a pile of money in front of Winner's eyes. With
light in his greedy eyes, Winner eagerly reached out and greeted Calvin with a big smile.
"Hello, I'm Winner Wen. May I have your name..."
But as soon as Winner's hand reached out towards Calvin with the hope of making relations with him,
Jean pushed it down with force and said to him in an aggrieved manner, "Lead the way and talk less."
Instantly Winner glanced at her with dissatisfaction and dismay. But when he remembered that the
wealthy gentleman next to him was still watching, the only option he had, was to control his emotions.
"I'm sorry, Calvin." Jean walked up to Calvin and said with humiliation while her face was pitiful.
"Oh, it's nothing. I think it's interesting instead." Seeing that Jean was blushing and was turning all pink
when she heard his words, Calvin looked at her with a big smile and explained, "I mean your brother is
quite interesting."
On hearing Calvin's explanation, Jean felt even more embarrassed, hoping that the ground would crack
open and would swallow her in. And all these expressions were clearly visible on her pretty face. Her
rosy cheeks were so attractive in Calvin's eyes that he was slightly distracted at that sight.
Jean knew Winner never hid his greedy nature in front of outsiders. But he never knew that although
others seemed to be smiling at him, they might be laughing at him in their hearts.
'It's really a disgrace!' Jean groaned in mind.
Not paying much attention to what they were saying, Winner was just staring at Calvin like a puppy
looking at a bone. Glaring at her silly brother, Jean intended to say goodbye to Calvin in case Winner
would lose face again and start acting like an idiot. "I am going to see my dad. You..."
"Shall I come with you?" realizing Jean's intentions, Calvin immediately interrupted her as he was not
willing to leave Jean. "It's really a coincidence to meet you today. Since I know your father is seriously
ill, it's rude for me not to visit him." Then Calvin looked at Jean with a sweet smile on his face.
At Calvin's words, Winner's eyes suddenly brightened and he nodded vigorously with the hope that he
would get the chance of knowing Calvin better.
It never occurred to Jean that Calvin would really want to see Henry Wen. She really wanted to refuse
and let him go, but it was rude to express it to him too directly.
"Oh, Mr. Li, it's very kind of you! But Winner has just said that my father is still in the intensive care unit.
That means even if you follow me there, you won't necessarily be able to go in and see him. You can
go back if you have something to deal with, " Jean said with an embarrassed smile and muttered in her
mind, 'Jesus! What has got into Calvin? We just met once, and I don't even know him well. How can he
be so enthusiastic to meet Henry?
Besides, he is a smart man. How can he not see that I have a very bad relationship with Winner?
What are his intentions in following us?'
"Sister Jean, it's time to visit dad. Since Mr. Li is your friend, so let's go together!" Winner interrupted
anxiously when he heard that Jean was rejecting the man.
"Shut up!" Casting a stern glance at Winner, Jean snapped at Winner angrily.
Winner pouted his lips in grievance abruptly and looked a little downcast.
"Doesn't Miss Wen want me to see your father?" Calvin asked with a serene smile and looked at the
contrasting expressions on their faces.
"My father is seriously ill, and it's really inconvenient..." Jean smiled bitterly as she did not know what to
say anymore to decline him.
"I just want to see your father with you. Miss Wen, I think you won't refuse such a tiny request!" Calvin
insisted and still gazed at Jean with a pleasant smile.
At Calvin's words, instantly Jean's brows furrowed while she was looking at Calvin in a bewildered
state.
Still she really couldn't understand. She was not at all familiar with Calvin. Why was he insisting on
meeting Henry with such zest?
"Actually, I am afraid that if you go to see him alone, it will be very difficult for you to get rid of their
entanglement in the end. And it will be problematic for you to face them. But if I am there, they will not
dare to be too reckless with you." Calvin walked up to Jean closely and stared at her while whispering
in her delicate ear with his sweet breath touching her cheeks.
When Jean heard this, she was stunned and looked at Calvin in surprise as she didn't realize that
Calvin could really understand her situation.
Calvin nodded slightly to Jean, indicating that he had seen through her predicament. And he was there
to help her through the circumstances that she was going to face.
Seeing this, Jean's face suddenly turned red and she cast her eyes down in shame.
'Even Calvin sees your dilemma, Jean, you are so stupid! You can't even hide your emotions.
You were worried about Calvin's intentions, but now the truth is clear.
He is just coming along to help you.'
Thinking of this, Jean nodded at last. "All right!" Now that Calvin had told Jean that he would go to visit
Henry to help her, if she still insisted on refusing, it would seem that she was too narrow-minded.
Hearing Jean's words, Calvin gave her a deep meaningful look. His eyes flashed in the light, and he
nodded with a warm and caring smile.
Winner was the happiest of the three and almost made a jump on hearing that Calvin was going to Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
accompany them.
He pretended to be calm, but his actions exposed his ecstasy and enthusiasm.
"Mr. Li, this way please." Winner ran eagerly towards Calvin and moved to lead the way to the intensive
care unit.
Jean saw the scene happening in front of her and shook her head helplessly. Because Winner was
back to acting like a ravenous self.
She only hoped that Calvin would not get into unnecessary trouble, otherwise she would feel very
guilty. As it was just to help her, he was here.
"Don't worry, I'm here." Aware of the uneasiness Jean was experiencing, Calvin blinked at Jean and
softly reassured her.
Hearing him, Jean stayed silent and just nodded in consensus.
