Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Now Jean couldn't help laughing out loud. "I don't want your heart, Maranda! You can keep it to yourself for Ron! But you'll to meet me for lunch now. I am starving. If you don't give me a large treat, I am going to be really angry about it and pout over it!" "Jean, you are not angry with me anymore, are you? And yes, yes, yes... I will surely meet you for lunch right now!" After hearing Jean's words, Maranda agreed to her proposal in surprise.

It was only after they had hung up the call did she realize that Jean wasn't calling because she was angry or wanted to blame her!

She had been needlessly frightened into a cold sweat just now.

Jean hung up the phone and got into the car with great satisfaction. It was with great pleasure that she narrated their conversation with a smile to Moore. "Moore, you can't imagine how terribly frightened Maranda was by me just now." She told him about the conversation they had just now and then kept on laughing for another few moments.

Moore didn't think that it was funny, but he was still moved by how amazing the friendship between the two women was.

If a person didn't care about you, he wouldn't respond the way Maranda had done no matter what you said or did.

Through several contacts, Moore had seen that although Maranda was rather impulsive sometimes, she was genuinely concerned about Jean and

he was really happy for Jean to have found such a sincere friend in her.

"Where are we going now?" Moore asked Jean as he saw that she had stopped laughing now.

"I have no idea. Maranda said that she would invite us to dinner in the best, most expensive restaurant in the city!" Jean smiled and shook her head. "Toby, you know where it is, right?"

Toby in the driver's seat nodded immediately. "Yes, Mrs. Jean. I know exactly what she meant!"

"OK then, let's go!" Jean said with a smile.

The car moved steadily along the road. But after a few moments, Jean remembered what Moore told her once before. She murmured in a low voice,"Toby, please don't drive this car next time. It's too prominent." "OK, Mrs. Jean." Toby nodded in agreement.

They soon arrived at the Regent Hotel, which was known to be four star for service but eight star for prices. Jean and Moore got off the car and when they looked at the magnificent hotel, both of them smiled naughtily, Jean more so as she had planned on ripping Maranda off properly that night.

And since it was Maranda's treat anyway, they would make sure that they had a hearty meal tonight.

Jean and Moore took a seat in a corner. After a while, Maranda and Ron ran in breathlessly.

"Oh, who's this? Isn't this your honey, Maranda?" Jean looked at Ron and said playfully.

Maranda's face was already very red since she had arrived in a hurry, and after hearing Jean's playful, pointed compliment, she blushed red as a penoy.

"Jean, you're making fun of me. You are so bad, you know." She walked over to Jean and lightly kicked her foot shyly.

"Jean is not that bad, you know." Jean deliberately adopted the same tone Maranda was using, "She was just pissed off by someone. She needs to eat a lot to cool down today."

"Jean, we already know what a big foodie you are. Please don't make fun of Maranda to hide that." Ron spoke for Maranda at once.

"Oh, you are helping her now? Ron, you think I'm alone today? No, I came with Moore." Jean took Moore's hand, smiled to him and said, "Moore, If they bully me, you will help me out, won't you?"

"No problem." Moore nodded immediately. "If they bully you, I won't let them go, as long as you don't keep on bullying them."

"Hello, what happened to you?" Maranda's eyes wandered from Jean to Moore, and she asked doubtfully, "Moore, aren't you supposed to be in the hospital? Why are you fooling around with Jean?"

"Who is fooling around? Moore was discharged from the hospital yesterday." Jean said aggressively,"And anyway, don't play smart with me. You're trying to change the subject! You have to pay the bill tonight. You can't even let Ron pay!"

"Jean, am I such a cheapskate in your eyes?" Maranda looked at her with a bitter smile and asked in fake sorrow.

"You tell me, you sly girl! You hid your identity to the photography company, and followed me to lunch every day. You even asked me to pay the bill so often. Aren't you stingy, Miss Qin?"

Jean complained discontentedly.

"I told you Jean, I had to hide my identify because I didn't want others to think that I was different. I really wanted to learn something in the company." Maranda explained in a hurry.

"That's okay. Since you've invited us to lunch today, I won't mention it anymore. Long time no see, Maranda. I really miss you." Jean finally decided to stop teasing Maranda. She reached out a hand and pinched Maranda's cheek playfully. The two were involved in such a cute, playful banter that they hadn't even sat down and only now, did they decide to draw a chair each.

"I missed you too, Jean. I wanted to see you so many times before too, but I was afraid to disturb you." Maranda explained her absence.

"The next time you miss me, call me first and we will make an appointment. But Ron and you, how did you become a couple? Didn't you two get to know each other through me? Oh yes you did! You owe me a lot, you know? "And you can pay back by paying for today's lunch!"

"You mentioned that again?" Maranda rolled her eyes helplessly.

"I was embrassed to let you invite me to lunch earlier. After all, you are still the ordinary girl in my mind, but not today!" Jean said with a bitter smile.

"How time flies, Maranda." Maranda nodded in agreement. "My days in the company were my happiest and fullest days."

Hearing that, even Jean got a little bit emotional.

At that time, Maranda was in love with John.

The silly girl! She had even fainted once because of him.

But times had changed now. Had Maranda forgotten John?

In any case, she was with Ron now, and they had each other!

"OK, I think we should change the topic or these two are going to get bored." Jean glanced at Moore and Ron.

"Say what you want to say. Don't worry about the two of us." Ron hastily stopped them from stopping their conversation.

"The first time I met you, you weren't so easy to get along with, Ron. You've changed so much now!" Jean said with a smile. Suddenly, she seemed to recall something and asked, "Where is Calvin? I haven't seen him in a long time." She hadn't seen him since the party that night.

Actually, it was also the first time she had seen Maranda since that day, let alone meet Calvin!

"He went back to Imperial Capital," Ron answered her. "His family asked him to come back. I think they had a family emergency or something. But he will come back soon. If you want to say something, I'll be happy to tell it to him for you." "Nothing, I just asked casually." Jean shook her head hastily.

Ron said nothing more and didn't press the matter as was his habit. He called the waiter and they began ordering.

Jean wasn't about to relent on Maranda and she certainly wasn't giving up on her promise. Her order had comprised of the best, most delicious, and the most expensive dishes!

Even though Maranda was a rich young lady, her face twitched every time she heard Jean order a dish, especially when her eyes fell on the prices mentioned in the menu. 0000
