Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 33 Your Perfume Smells Best

"Put me down, Ethan Lei!"

"Don't move or people will see what's under your dress." Ethan warned her with a serious look and

tightened his arms.

Jean froze. She could feel the tight little dress tearing gradually. She feared that with just a little more

force, it would torn upwards and the dress would be ruined. It would't be indecent exposure anymore

since she would be totally naked...

He gave a soft smile when he looked down to the woman who curled up in his arms like a kitten. He

closed in to her hair and took a whiff, "Your perfume smells best."

Jean dazed and her heart tightened. "I think it's more like you've smelt one too many over the years so

you are a perfume expert now."

"Jean, do I smell jealousy on you? Do you... still have feelings for me?"

"You!"

Jean looked up and stared at him wide eyed. Her face was red from the exertion. She calmed down a

few seconds later and smiled softly, "How can I forget someone as a rogue as you?"

"Really? I see you kept your sense of humor. This brings me back to the good times."

Ethan eyed to her with a sly smile and inched his face to hers.

Jean didn't want to lose to him but as soon as his cheek was several centimeters away from her, she

panicked. She was no match for him and she never would be.

Jean turned sideways and jumped out of his arms. She lost her footing on the uneven pavement upon

landing. She was expecting herself to trip and hit the ground but a body of flesh shielded her fall.

"Honey, have you gotten enough rest?"

The meat shield asked with a low voice.

Jean turned to look. Her face turned pale with fear the moment she realized it was Zed. It was not a

good situation to be in. She tried to pull Zed with her to leave the garden immediately.

Ay! He was not moving at all?

Jean looked back to find Zed as calm as the sea but his burning gaze said otherwise. On the other

side, Ethan didn't look good either. It was as if the two of them were fighting in silence.

"It's your fault for picking this one size smaller dress. It was torn by the branches so let's go home,

okay..."

Jean whispered as she gently pulled his cuff.

Zed looked down and noticed the coat that she used to cover her body. His annoyance increased. He

took off his own coat to cover her and then proceeded to rip off Ethan's coat and toss it aside casually.

"Zed!"

Seeing Ethan's coat getting thrown to the ground like that, Jean was now angry at him.

"Honey, the banquet is really boring. Rather than wasting time here, let's go home and make babies."

Zed gently wrapped his arm around her waist and turned around to leave with her.

What? Make babies...

How could he say such an embarrassing thing out loud? So shameless!

Jean didn't dare to fight back since he was the boss. Everything was as he decided. Not to mention,

her dress had already been torn. Going back with him was the only option.

In the car, Jean was lost in her thoughts. She kept recalling her moments with Ethan and it made her

rather emotional. The more she thought about it, the more upset she was.

Zed was observing her expression all this time. She gave no reaction even when he withdrew his hand

from her waist. His eyes turned cold.

'Is she acquainted with that man just now? What happened between them in the garden just now? Why

was her dress torn? Was it really because of the branches?'

The flames of jealousy ignited. His heart burnt deeply.

After getting back to their villa, Jean walked straight into the bathroom. She stood below the shower

head and let the water rain over her.

Splashes...

"Ah!" She yelped from the cold shock. She was so lost in her thoughts that she had forgotten to turn the

heater on. No surprise that the shower was freezing. She trembled and quickly moved aside to avoid

the downpour.

Upon hearing her scream, Zed pushed the bathroom door open and asked urgently, "What happened?"

His sudden appearance made Jean panicked a little before instinctively covering up her breast with her

hands. She hurried to explain, "Nothing. I just turned on the cold water by mistake."

He reached out his hand to feel the water.

"It's hot water now." Jean mumbled.

Zed looked at her flushed face and vacant stare, he felt his anger rose again suddenly. He pushed her

back into the shower and restrained her in his arms. Zed glared at her and gave her a stern warning,

"Jean Wen, you better remember your place. As long as we are not divorced, you are Mrs. Qi. If you

dare cheat on me, I will..."

"You will what? Kill me? They are right about you. You fit the description of a heartless, ungrateful and

relentless demon lord! I really don't understand why you kept refusing to divorce me? Am I still of use

to you? Or do you like me?"

She wanted to make sense of everything once and for all.

Zed released her, his lips tightened. He didn't plan to answer her questions. As a matter of fact, he

didn't know the answer himself.

"I'm not letting you go if you don't answer my question. What's the point of you dragging this on? I'm

only twenty-one years old. I have a long and wonderful youth waiting ahead of me. I want to fall in love

and marry someone too! I know you don't like me at all. So what's your goal for keeping me here?"

She held onto his arm to keep him from leaving.

Zed was half soaked from the hot shower but the rage inside him burned furiously.

Fall in love and marry someone?

He turned back and grabbed her by the chin, "I'm keeping you around just out of convenience. Your

existence help me get rid of some social engagements and those bewitched followers. Most

importantly, ... your are clean."

You are clean...

Pak!

Jean slapped Zed. "You scum!"

"Me? A scum? Then I will show you what kind of scum I am." He lowered his head and kissed her

forcefully.

She frowned and tried her best to dodge him. She slammed her hands against his shoulder and tried to

push him away.

The harder she fought against him, the angrier he got. He lifted her up and put her into the cold

bathtub. With the switch of the tap turned on, water flooded out. She choked on the water several

times.

She held onto his arm with both her hands. As she was struggling, his white shirt was torn by her

fingernails. Scratch marks could be seen on his skin, too.

Part of the water was dyed red. Zed noticed and stopped for a moment before carrying her out of the

water. He reached for the towel beside him and wrapped her with it.

"You bastard. Jerk..." Uuu..." After all the struggling, Jean used her last ounce of energy to scold him.

"I'm sorry. I'll let you shower now." He frowned and apologized. He turned around and left the

bathroom.

He stood behind the bathroom door until he heard the sound of running water. It was a sign that she

had calmed down. He sighed in relief.

'How am I supposed to know she's having her menstruation?'
