Chapter 446 Its Me Who Has Been Terribly Harsh On Him (1/2)

As a daughter, Jean hadn't been able to do one last thing for her mother.

She couldn't let the cause of her mother's death remain unknown.

Just the thought of this was making Jean's heart ache with grief as tears flowed down her fair cheeks.

Moore had been as pensive as her all this while observing her all the time. Seeing her cry, his eyebrows furrowed with worry.

He hurriedly walked over and comforted her. ”Jean, don't worry. I seriously think that Zed can think of a way.”

”How? We both know it is illegal. And, he won't go against his conscience to do such a thing. It's me who has been terribly harsh on him...”

Jean moped about the situation she had put Zed in.

She had thought that Joy wouldn't ask for more. As long as Shirley stayed alive, it wouldn't matter to her that she would be in jail for the rest of her life. There was nothing illegal in her bargain. But as Joy said, she had seen through Jean's weakness, so she would create the best possible circumstances for Shirley.

The sudden change in the terms hadn't left Jean any time to think. So, she agreed.

Now she realized how serious the matter was and it had exposed Zed to a risky proposition.

She didn't think about whether Zed would agree to it or how he would execute it in the first place.

But now her worry was concentrated at one point — Zed was in a difficult situation.

Jean's shoulders shook with helplessness and she began to cry more fiercely.

'Zed, I am sorry.

I must believe in you. You are the only one that I can depend on.

Please forgive me. I have got you in a bind but I did it all for my deceased mother.'
