Chapter 154 You Are My Wife (1/2)

”I...” Maranda pondered and didn't answer Jean's question for a long time.

Seeing Maranda acting like that, Jean suddenly sighed. She stood up from her seat and walked towards Maranda. ”Maranda, I'm not trying interfere with your decision. But, I hope that you won't regret your decision in the future, ” said Jean while putting her hands on Maranda's shoulder.

”I see.” After that, Maranda slowly wore a remorseful smile on his face. With her eyes full of gratitude, she looked at Jean and said, ”Thank you, Jean! You are right, I shouldn't be stubborn and should just leave people behind. Jean, you will help me, right?”

Maranda gently asked Jean with her high-spirited face.

”As long as I'm able, I will certainly help you.” Jean sighed and happily promised Maranda.

”You really are my best friend, Jean.” Maranda was delighted. She quickly jumped into Jean's arms and tightly hugged her.

”Well, you are not a child anymore, so don't behave like this. Other people would surely laugh at us if they see us here.” Jean smiled helplessly.

”I don't care. Please allow me to be childish this time.” Maranda held Jean tightly and refused to let her go.

”What… What are you two doing?” Maranda and Jean suddenly heard a familiar voice. Maranda, who refused to let go of Jean a few seconds ago, seemed to have been stung by bees. She abruptly released Jean and took a few steps backward.

”No… nothing…” Maranda was too nervous to look at John who was standing opposite to them.

She acted like a coward mouse in front of John. After she saw what just happened, Jean was lost in her thought and just smiled.

'Will every woman turn so timid whenever she faces the man she likes?'

Jean couldn't help recalling every detail that happened the other day. She felt a bit remorseful about how she behaved yesterday.

'If I didn't argue with Zed that day, and if I just tried to speak with him gently and compromised with him, would the result be different?

It is true that the onlookers can see most clearly while those closely involved cannot see clearly.

I have to control my temper next time.
