Chapter 928 Zeds Suspicion (1/2)

'Perhaps James just gave her a lift and she is home now, ' Zed speculated.

On the way home, he was overwhelmed with assumptions about Jean and James. When he arrived at his house, he saw Jean open the door. He heaved a sigh of relief and parked his car before walking into the house.

'Did she turn off her phone because she was with James?

Is something going on between them?' Suspicions rose in his mind regarding the relationship between Jean and James.

When he entered the living room, he saw Jean sitting on the couch, drinking water. He called out softly, ”Jean.” However, his wife didn't respond. She didn't even look up at him.

Her indifferent attitude displeased Zed slightly. Despite that, he controlled his anger and walked to her side. He sat next to her and asked, ”Where have you been? Why is your phone switched off?”

”The battery is dead,” she replied nonchalantly before taking her phone out of the handbag and heading to her bedroom.

Zed waited for a few minutes, but she didn't come back. He got up and made his way to the room.

He opened the door and found her fast asleep.

Zed frowned. He walked to the bed and his gaze fell on her pale face.

'She doesn't look too well. Is she worn out because she had sex with James?' he wondered, anger swelling within him.

He shook his head and dispelled the ridiculous thought from his head. He tried hard to control his temper and not disturb her sleep. Depressed about the events of the day, he silently walked out of the room.

He sat back on the couch, leaning against the back rest. As he was about to drift off, his stomach growled. He recalled that he hadn't had dinner yet. Sighing, he rose from his seat and went to the kitchen to make dinner for himself.

The next morning, when Jean woke up, she was surprised to find Zed lying beside her. Glancing at the wall clock, she frowned. 'He is going to be late for work if he doesn't get up right away, ' she thought.

”Zed, wake up! You're gonna be late,” Jean said, shaking his shoulder. She thought that he had overslept.

Zed opened his eyes slowly and replied, ”I'm not going to work today. I'll keep you company at home.”

Jean gaped at him in disbelief.
