Chapter 149 Get Mad for Jealousy (1/2)
'Was I too obvious?' Jean thought to herself.
”Jean, after I carefully thought about it, I've decided to hide my love for him. I don't want to bother and be a burden to him.” Finally, Maranda made a decision after thinking for a long time.
Jean was suddenly shocked and gazed at Maranda in amazement after she heard what Maranda said. ”Was it my fault? Did I go too far and embarrass you?” Jean asked while wearing a bitter smile.
”No, I know that you did that because you are concerned about me. I am truly grateful for your help, Jean. You did that for me willingly. It means that you really treat me as your friend. But John...” She deeply sighed and continued, ”Even if I am stupid, I could clearly see that he won't like me. He even doesn't throw a glance at me.”
'Has Maranda known that John already loved someone else?' Jean thought to herself. ”Why?”
She asked Maranda in amazement.
It was because John chose to love another woman.
A gloomy smile appreared on Maranda's face. When she looked at Jean's concerned and innocent face, Maranda just shook her head and said, ”Don't mind it, Jean. Just let nature take its course. As what you've said, John is not the only man in the world. Perhaps a better man out there is waiting for me.”
Jean felt that it was needless to say anything more since Maranda had clearly conveyed her thoughts and already made her decision.
Instead, she just patted Maranda on her shoulder to comfort her. Then, she went back to her seat wearing a long face.
Jean immediately threw herself to her work after she adjusted her state of mind.
After she finished all her jobs, she heaved a long sigh of relief. She was about to have a short rest when her cellphone rang.
She picked her cellphone up, and found out that it was from Zed. She hurriedly answered the phone call.
”Aren't you done with your jobs yet? I saw that all your colleagues already left.” Zed asked her on the other end of the line.
'All of them have left?'
Jean raised her head, feeling so shocked. It was not until that moment that she realized that she was the only one left in the company.
