Chapter 117 A Loss of Ten Billion (1/2)

Jean felt completely relieved after she found out that no one was inside the room. She quickly changed her clothes and went downstairs.

Zelda had prepared their breakfast. Zed was just sitting there while enjoying his meal.

Zed took a sip of the milk as Jean was going down the stairs. For a moment, their gaze met.

Jean cleared her throat and sat opposite to Zed. She felt very embarrassed and shy when she thought about what happened upstairs.

”Mrs. Jean, are you having a sore throat? Or have you caught a cold? Let me give you a glass of warm water.” Zelda turned around after she finished speaking.

When he heard Zelda talked about cold, Zed recalled that Jean slept last night without covering herself well. Perhaps she had caught a cold because of that. Zed kept silent for a while. Then he coldly raised his eyes and said to Zelda, ”Cook some ginger soup for her.”

Ginger soup? Jean took a furtive glance at him and thought, 'Is he concerned about me?'

”Mr. Zed, I think this is yours. I've found it inside your car.” Luke went to him and handed him a VIP medal.

Jean recognized the medal. It was only for the VIP members of a nightclub.

She looked on the floor and murmured, ”I stood and struggled against the cold wind for an hour yesterday just for that thing?”

”What are you murmuring?” Zed seemed to hear what she said. He slightly raised his eyes and looked at her apathetically.

Jean was provoked. She shook her head and playfully said, ”I didn't say anything. I just thought that you should take good care of that medal, because that is so precious.”

”Luke!” He doubtfully looked at her. Then he slowly took his eyes off her.

”Mr. Zed, what can I do for you?”

”How did I come back last night?”

”Last night… ”

”You got drunk last night. In fact, you were roaring drunk. Then, your secretary gave me a phone call. So, I went to pick you up with Luke.”
