Chapter 314 Distracted Zed (2/2)
“Let's go and register our marriage on your birthday!”
Marrying Daniel should have been her best birthday gift, but everything was ruined the moment when she caught him sleeping with another woman on the day before her birthday.
“He’s going to marry that woman! She... was my best friend!”
In order to keep Jean safe, he sacrificed their relationship.
He realized everything had taken some unexpected turns.
For example, the appearance of Moore was out of the blue.
On top of that, he received the news about someone tracking Lance.
'What exactly is going on?' wondered his frustrated mind.
All these signs indicated that his problems had only begun. He foresaw more difficulties in the coming future.
”Hrrr!”
He was so wrapped up in his thoughts that the cigarette butt burned his finger. 'Aaaaaah!' The pain forced a small cry out of him.
Before he could react more, the door of the study was pushed open and Jesse's apprehensive face came to his view.
”Zed, no matter how worried you are about things going on in life, you must take care of yourself!You just returned from the hospital and you shouldn't smoke. You are killing yourself!” grumbled Jesse, as she strode toward Zed and took his burnt finger in her hands. Gently, she blew on his finger. It was evident that she cared a lot about him.
”I'm fine...” said Zed removing his hand from hers. ”How did you come in?”
It surprised Zed to see Jesse here at such short notice.
”I noticed that you have locked yourself in the study. Moreover, Zelda told me that you have been inside for a long time. Right now, Zelda informed the dinner is ready, so I am here to call you.”Jesse pouted at Zed with a look of disagreement.
”Is dinner ready?” repeated Zed. Now it struck him that he had stayed in the study for two long hours.
Zed rubbed his brows gently and felt really whacked.
