Chapter 395 Who Is Your Boyfriend
Jean was stunned for a while.
'I just said that without giving it any thought.
I did not expect it to be right.'
"Who is your boyfriend? Maranda, I admire you! This is amazing. I did not expect that you found a boyfriend within such a short period of time! You must have some magic in you!"
"I am not as amazing as you think," Maranda replied. Her face had turned crimson red with shyness. "You know my boyfriend too. To some extent, we should show our gratitude to you! Without that incident, this wouldn't have happened. In fact that incident is what allowed us to get to know each other better..."
Hearing Maranda's words, Jean quickly understood who Maranda's boyfriend is.
"Yeah, you two have to thank me! I have sacrificed my reputation to make this match," Jean replied in a joking tone.
"Jean, have you already figured out who he is?" Maranda was stunned for a while and asked quickly.
"I am not as stupid as you," Jean replied with a smile. "I know life has been hard for me during the past few days, but I have noticed it. I can feel the love Ron has for you in a single glance. He is a stranger yet he helped me so I figured he was doing it for you." "Jean..." Maranda called her name out shyly. "I wanted to give you a surprise, but I didn't expect you would surprise me instead with your smartness."
"I am really happy that you are in love with Ron. He is a good man. Maranda, you should cherish him!" Jean said with a sincere smile.
"Okay, I will." Hearing Jean's words, Maranda nodded. "I also hope you will be happy with Mr. Qi all your life. When we have spare time, how about going out for afternoon tea? I miss you."
"Okay. Maranda, I have arrived at the airport now. I will call you later. Bye."
Seeing that Toby has stopped the car, Jean quickly decided to hang up.
"Bye," said Maranda There was reluctance in Maranda's voice.
Opening the door, Jean got off the car and walked towards the gate to the airport.
"Jean..." Jean heard a familiar voice, and could not help looking up. It was Zack, whom she had not met for a long time. Now he was walking towards her.
"Where did you go..." Jean looked at him with amazement. Zack looked quite tired as if he had just come back after a long journey. Jean guessed he was also here to see off Benjamin.
"I just came back from abroad," Zack replied clearing her doubts. There was a complicated facial expression while he spoke. Later, he quickly smiled and said,"I just met Zed and Benjamin there. You need to hurry up!" "Okay." Hearing that, Jean nodded. "See you later. Bye."
"Bye." Zack saw Jean walking forward. Slowly, he let out a long sigh and walked outside with a gloomy face.
Jean continued to walk forward and finally saw a few familiar figures near the security check channel.
Not wasting any more time, she quickly walked over to them. On reaching, she apologized profusely. "Grandpa and Grandpa Dan, I am sorry that I am late."
Her voice surprised everyone standing around. They all looked delighted to see her.
However, Jesse kept a straight face, with her eyes resentfully glaring at Jean who suddenly appeared.
'Originally, Zed had promised to accompany me in a few days.
But Grandpa Benjamin spoiled everything for me. He is now so adamant about leaving.
Why couldn't he leave alone? Why did he ask me to leave with him?
At the moment when he asked me to leave with him, I was quite unhappy. In fact, I made my distaste obvious to him.
I was shocked to know that Grandpa Benjamin asked Grandpa to order me to leave with them. He ignored my plea and rejection.'
Thinking of this, Jesse realized the seriousness of the matter and could not help glancing at Benjamin.
At that moment, she finally understood that Jean's running away from home was more or less due to her.
Benjamin and Dan wanted to leave quickly so as to help Zed persuade Jean to come back soon.
After understanding their intention, Jesse felt ridiculous and upset.
'In the past, I was a little princess to these people. The elders cared so much about me and always talked to me in a soft tone.
Everyone treated me well and took good care of me.
But now?
Grandpa Benjamin and Grandpa did not help instead they are taking me away from Zed.
The culprit of all these things is Jean.
Because of her, even my last opportunity to get along with Zed has been deprived.'
Jesse's beautiful eyes had nothing but pure hatred for Jean.
"Jean, I am happy that you have come here to see me off," Benjamin replied. Her appearance had brought happiness in his heart and he felt content.
He didn't want to leave without meeting her so he finally relaxed when he saw her.
At first, when he met this ordinary girl, he felt that she was not worthy of his grandson.
Therefore, he often embarrassed her and made her feel inferior.
But yesterday, seeing her leave, Benjamin was a little sad.
That was when he realized that he truly cared for her. Deep down, he knew she was the best life partner for Zed.
But Zed's actions were too disappointing in Benjamin's eyes. 'He does not know how to handle his relationship with Jesse. And his stupidity is causing too many misunderstandings between Jean and him, 'realized Benjamin. Seeing that Zed was helpless and did not know what to do with it, Benjamin decided to leave early and give his grandson and Jean a chance to meet.
Therefore, he deliberately told Zed that he hoped Jean could see him off when he left.
He knew Zed's thoughts very well. Sure enough, Zed really asked Jean to see him off.
Benjamin looked at Jean and then turned to look at Zed who stood next to Jean. The sight of them together filled him with happiness.
"Grandpa, why don't you stay here for a few more days?" Jean asked. There was sincerity in her eyes and voice. "I am sorry that I didn't take good care of you. If you stay here for a few more days, I can accompany you and we could enjoy..." "Jean, I think you are a lovely girl. If you and Zed live a happy life, I will be much happier. As for me, I will come back some other time." Benjamin comforted Jean in front of everyone.
"Grandpa..." Zed was embarrassed and wanted to stop him from continuing.
"Grandpa, I..." Jean wanted to say something, but when she noticed that Benjamin was looking at her with a smile, she could do nothing but smile back.
Now he flashed Zed a cold look. "Jean, if Zed does not treat you well, you must tell me. I will definitely help you punish him," he said sounding serious. "Grandpa..." Zed called helplessly. 'Grandpa, how can you say this in front of me?
I know that you are saying this because you love Jean but this is making me embarrassed.'
"Thank you, Grandpa." Hearing Benjamin's words, Jean was moved. "Grandpa, you must take good care of your body in order to stay healthy."
"Thank you." Benjamin immediately smiled. He looked at the watch and looked back at Dan. "It's time for us to leave. Let's go! Or else we may end up missing our flight," he said. "Okay." Dan nodded and walked over to Benjamin.
"Grandpa..." Jean was a little sorry to see him leave. Since she was a child, she craved for the elderly love but never received it. Now that she had it, she wanted him to be with her. 'Although Grandpa seemed picky when we met at first, I am clear that he has gradually accepted me as Zed's wife.
It was reasonable that he treated me like that. I am not excellent enough to match Zed.
But he still accepts me as Zed's wife and is so kind to me now.'
In Jean's heart, she has already treated Benjamin as her grandfather. Seeing him leave, she felt a piercing pain in her heart.
'He is so kind that he wants to ensure my relationship with Zed isn't strained.
No one will dislike such a wonderful man. I wish him nothing but the best.'
