As someone who grew up in the West, the girl really couldn't understand the way Jean thought. Without saying anything else, the girl shook her head and left.
Despite her nervousness, Jean thought the girl was right. So after that, she picked up her phone intending to call Zed.
However, the moment she picked up her phone, Zed's call came in.
Jean was a bit taken aback to see Zed calling, so she immediately answered his call.
But she was so nervous that she didn't know what to say to him. So she just pressed her phone against her ear and waited for Zed to speak first.
"Jean, are you there? Are you listening?"
"Yes, of course I am, Zed. I have a lesson now. If you have anything to say to me, get to it now."
Jean made Zed feel a little nervous. So he stammered, "Well... Jean, I'm sorry I didn't go to the gym today. Because something bad happened in the hotel."
"Oh, I see. Well, you don't have to explain to me," Jean replied.
She feigned indifference but deep inside, she felt relieved after hearing his explanation. She genuinely cared about Zed so naturally, she would get worried about him.
After a short pause, Jean finally asked, "What happened? How bad is it? Is it taken care of?"
At first, Zed was afraid that Jean would think that he just made up an excuse to deceive her.
He was mistaken when Jean asked him about the incident. It was then that he realized how much Jean really cared about him.
Zed was glad to hear that Jean was interested, so he told her about what had happened between Julie and her mother.
"Jean, don't get mad. I swear I didn't know that Julie's mother would suddenly go to the hotel."
Zed was so nervous that his heart was racing. He feared that Jean wouldn't believe him.
The previous day, Jean had misunderstood Zed, which made her feel bad. Even though she wasn't exactly happy to hear Zed mention Julie, she didn't say anything because she did
It all starts on that fateful night.
When Ella, who is the dear sister of Samuel’s best buddy, sneaks into the hotel where the drunken Samuel resides and gets pregnant…
"I don’t want a divorce!"
"I don’t want a divorce!"
"I did no such thing!"
Ella jumped on the bed and cried out. “I don’t want a scheming woman as my wife. Just sign the paper...
hotel is not a welfare agency. I can't let your personal matters interfere with your job again and again."
"Yes, boss, I know. I promise it won't happen again. I've already hired a nanny for my mother and she's starting to work tomorrow. So I don't have to take care of my mother every day and l can concentrate on my work from now on."
Zed was relieved to hear this. He nodded and said, "Okay, this is for the best. You can get out a little early today. Starting tomorrow, if you still leave early without any good reason, I will fire you."
"Boss, I won't fail you anymore. If I make a mistake again, I will resign myself," Hess promised.
With a sigh of relief, Hess left Zed's office. Then he recalled that someone had tattled on him. He wouldn't tolerate that, so he asked the service manager to find out who that person was.
He could do that because the service manager was his lover.
"Investigate your employees. Once I find out who tattled on me, I'm going to fire his ass!" Hess roared.
"Honey, don't worry. I'll help you investigate. I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of this soon," the manager cooed.
She seldom had chances to be alone with Hess. So she took advantage by hugging him and kissing him all over. Meanwhile, Ellie had seen the entire thing.
