Chapter 543 Its Been A Long Time (2/2)
Though Moore smiled back in return, but letting Jean buy clothes for him was making Moore somehow uncomfortable.
They walked out together and as they made their way to the gate, Jean saw Eva and stopped walking.
”Jean.
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex. To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him. ”As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women...
I...”
Jean smiled bitterly and replied, ”I just think that after the incident with Calvin, it's not fair for you.”
”Why do you think it's unfair for me?” Moore couldn't help but laughed.
”Hanley threatened you with this, asking you to give up the Bai family's property, do you think it's fair? You don't have to give up that much just for some irrelevant person!” Jean got emotional.
”First of all, though this Hanley was suspicious of getting behind this, it was me that made the deal with Hanley. Secondly, Jean, you should understand that I don't want a dime from the Bai family. No matter how much one half of Bai property is, it has nothing to do with me.”
Moore looked at Jean seriously.
”I know.” A bitter smile showed on Jean's face. ”How can I not know what you are thinking about. But, I think it should not be you who has to deal with this.”
”You and Zed are my friend, your trouble is my trouble. Frankly, I really want to thank you.”
Moore smiled at Jean.
”What do you mean? I don't understand.” Jean looked at Moore confusedly.
”I don't want the Bais to get into my life and bother me with their troubles. It's been more than once that I have expressed my stand, but they still don't believe me or leave me alone. With this incident, I finally got some leverage to bargain with and Hanley listened. Now, I think I will have more undisturbed time. So, do you think I should thank you for this?”
