Chapter 848 Do You Want To Humiliate Yourself

'Good grief! This is not my day!' Jean whispered to herself as she went back to the car.

Ethan made sure that Jean could hear him so she couldn't pretend otherwise.

Ethan was relieved when Jean turned around so he spoke quickly, "I heard that you were here so I came to visit you..."

He had been forced to return to Imperial Capital, and Zed had warned him to never return to H City.

Ethan knew that Zed wasn't the type to mess around so he didn't waste any time, afraid he would anger Zed.

Here, Ethan didn't live a lavish life—something that was uncharacteristic of him. He acted as he should—like the dutiful successor of the Lei Group.

"You've already seen her, you can go back now," Zed barked, glaring at Ethan.

Ethan was looking at Jean expectantly when Zed spoke. He immediately turned red. "Zed, I know you're married to her, okay? Relax. I know my place. We were together after all, so isn't it normal that I pay her a visit every now and then? Especially that it's her first time in Imperial Capital."

"Ethan, I'm sure you can come up with a better excuse than that. I'm talking to you for Christ's sake." Zed was livid. "Don't be a hypocrite. I know what you're thinking and I know what you're planning. If you really know your place like you said, you never would have shown up here in the first place after what you did to her. Grow a pair will you!

And stop trying to sound so smart! So you came all the way from Spain just to catch up with Jean. Do you really think we're stupid enough to believe that? I want you to stay away from Jean. Otherwise, you won't know what will hit you,"

Zed barked, glaring at Ethan.

Having not seen Ethan for a long time, Jean's hatred and fear had faded gradually.

In addition to that, the way Ethan was looking at

Jean Wen sacrificed herself for family interests. Before her husband divorced her, she made every effort to please him.

"You are inexperienced in bed," he said coldly.

"You! Give that land to my family, or I won't agree to divorce," Jean replied furiously.

"Fine. It is exactly what I am thinking about," he sneered.

lready told you a thousand times before—if I had the chance, I'd go back in time and reverse the time we spent together. I'm ashamed I ever fell in love with you and I'm in a much better place now that I've forgotten all about you. Ethan, the nerve you have to come here and beg me. None of this is my fault. Don't make me look like the bad guy.

Zed has already offered you the opportunity to restart so that you can change and start a new life. If you want to be a respected man in Imperial Capital then act like it! Don't you ever threaten my life again. If you even so much as try, even if Zed wants to let it go, I won't! Now, get out of here!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she turned away haughtily without another glance. She briskly walked towards where Zed was.

Embarrassed, Ethan screamed back, "Jean, you'll be sorry. You'll be so sorry you ever did this to me. I assure you're going to pay for this all one day—twice!"

"Fine, I'll be waiting," Jean said coldly.

Ethan stared Zed down as he went back inside his car. He sped away as if someone had been chasing him.

Everything fell to a thick silence.

Zed walked to Jean, and said softly, "I'm sorry, honey..."
