Chapter 433 Keep Stalking (1/2)
Hearing Zed's words, Jean felt relaxed at once. On the other hand, a sweet smile appeared on Jean's face. ”You are so bad! How can you tease me like that?” she asked, feigning anger.
”Believe me, I didn't mean to do that. You didn't hear me and was busy getting anxious. You can't blame me for that, honey,” Zed said with a naughty smile on his face.
”You did it on purpose. You stopped speaking so as to see me getting anxious.” Jean snorted, pretending to be displeased.
As a matter of fact, Zed indeed did it deliberately as he wanted to watch Jean get worried about his feelings for her.
At the moment, Zed put on a big smile as he reached out his hand and gently rubbed Jean's long hair.
It was already midnight when they arrived home.
Moore was not in the living room at the time so they figured he might have fallen asleep upstairs.
Therefore, Zed and Jean slowed down their pace and walked quietly to their bedroom.
All of a sudden, a sharp ringtone rang loudly from the living room. They had almost reached their room but stopped on hearing it.
Feeling stunned, Zed and Jean exchanged a look and went back downstairs helplessly.
”It's your fault. We all have cell phones nowadays. Why is there a need to place a phone in the living room? I've never heard it ring before. I thought it was for the decoration,”
Jean said in a low voice looking annoyed.
”Why would anyone keep a phone for decoration!” Zed responded feeling appalled by her thoughts.
Zed and Jean were lost in their bickering, but the phone was still ringing. Unable to take it anymore, Zed went near and took a look at the number that was displayed. His earlier expression was gone and now he looked serious.
Noticing the difference in Zed's expression, Jean looked worried. ”What's wrong? Who's that?” she asked anxiously.
”It is Joy,” Zed replied with a hint of helpless in his eyes.
