Chapter 1032 The Delayed Moving Plan (1/2)
Today was Sunday. It was a new day and a new beginning for Zed. He was ready to go to Jean's place and help her move back in with him.
Just as he was about to knock on Jean's door, Hess called him. He was calling with an emergency on hotel matters. Their suppliers had suddenly raised their prices, and some staff were causing trouble.
Zed frowned upon hearing this. He took a peek inside the room as he contemplated on what he was going to do. Finally, he decided to call Jean.
Jean was packing her things. She felt excited because she was finally moving back in with Zed.
She had a lot of memories in this little room of hers. She spent one of the most difficult times of her life here. It all felt surreal.
Jean was snapped out of her daze by Zed's call. For some reason, something felt off with Zed calling. Raising her eyebrows, she answered the call.
”Zed, you're late! Where are you? Please don't tell me you're not gonna make it.”
Zed's chest tightened upon hearing this. She was right—he wasn't going to make it.
After a pause, Zed decided to go with the truth. He said, ”Jean, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to. I just got called in for an emergency in the hotel. The suppliers suddenly raised their prices and things are crazy over there, so I have to go there and handle the situation.”
Jean was just joking. She didn't expect that she would actually be right. He seemed sincere in his explanation, so she was understanding and she didn't make him feel bad.
She replied, ”All right, it's okay. I forgive you. Now go to the hotel. I'll be fine.”
”Thank you, honey! I'll be back as soon as I finish up there.”
Zed felt less bad with Jean being so understanding. He turned the car and headed to the J Hotel.
Hess was waiting for Zed in the office.
”Do you know what you did wrong? It's alright if you just wanted to own me. But you should not have helped Molly leave me!”
