Chapter 815 Falling For The Wrong Person

"Well, don't just stand there. Please, have a seat," Sean said with a meek smile.

The sight of so many people in the room made him a bit uncomfortable.

"Jesse, come here and sit with me," Jade said as she held Jesse's hand and sat on the sofa.

Zed and Jean glanced at each other and sat across from them.

Meanwhile, Jean couldn't help but glance at Jade, knowing full well what her intentions of inviting Jesse to sit with her were.

'As long as Jade is here, Jesse will be on her best behavior for sure.

Jesse might be a little frustrated now but there's no telling the lengths she's willing to go to.

But if she still pursues Zed, a lot of people aren't going to be happy with her.

Besides, I'm not some pushover.

If Jesse tries anything with Zed that will harm our relationship, I'm sure mother will know how to deal with her.

Maybe that's why Zed was so calm when I shared my worries with him before.

Maybe he doesn't really see Jesse as a threat because Jade's on our side anyway.'

Jean felt slightly better but she still kept her guard up and treaded with caution.

'An angry woman will do anything to get her way.'

"Zed, it's been a while since we last saw each other! Looks like you and Jean are doing much better now," Jesse looked at Jean carefully as she spoke. She slowly glanced at Jean's protruding belly, and put a fake smile on her face.

'Is she insinuating that the only reason Zed and I are doing better is because I'm pregnant?

The nerve this woman has to say something like that about me and Zed in front of other people!'

Jean was about to respond when Jade butted in. "Jesse, when you find the right man for you, I'm sure the relationship you will have will be better. You don't need to be so jealous. There are so many men who are chasing after you. Isn't there anyone that you like? Your grandfather is so worried that you may never get married…"

The smile on Jesse's face immediately froze. She slowly turned round, looked at Jade and smiled bitterly. "My grandfather and his friends have introduced some wealthy men to me. Although born into wealthy families,

"You're my wife in name only, on paper only. My heart and love will never be yours."

Edward made it clear to Daisy that she was nothing to him. They were both victims of family greed -- the marriage was arranged for them.

Six years passed. She remained quiet, gaining a reputation in the army as a tough-as-nails colonel. When she walked into his life again, Edward fell in love with this woman...

e chose the wrong man.'

Jean felt a bit sorry for Jesse.

'Jesse's a great girl who would be a great match for Zed.

But things are more complicated than that, emotionally at least.

The only thing I have to say about her is that she's too proud, I guess.

Why hasn't she succeeded in winning Zed over long before I came into the picture?

Zed may have seen her as a little sister but she could have easily changed that since they have a history together.

But Jesse's lost her chance already.'

After what happened in H City, Zed and Jean only became stronger and closer.

At that very moment as Jean and Zed sat together, Zed didn't even seem to notice anyone else but her as he tightly held her hand and intertwined it with his.

After Jesse and Kirk's chat, everyone sat on the sofa.

Jesse obviously wasn't pleased but she still tried to keep the smile on her face.

"Kirk, why didn't you bring your girlfriend with you?"

Whenever Jesse started to bring up Zed or Jean, Jade would interrupt. So, Jesse strategically brought the conversation to Kirk.

'I've got more opportunities and better timing to deal with Jean, ' Jesse thought to herself.

"She'll visit soon to meet everyone," Kirk smiled.

"Kirk, I have to admit. I'm pretty jealous of your girlfriend. She's so luck to be with you. She must be the happiest woman in the world!" Jesse said with a meaningful look on her face.
