"You......" Jean choked as she heard his question. She blushed before she murmured to herself, 'Damn this businessman! The only thing he can think about are conditions.'
"Leave if you have nothing else to do, I'm going to sleep now, or......" Zed lifted a corner of his quilt and patted the pillow by his side.
Jean had spent the night preparing arguments for this discussion with her husband. After seeing Zed's subtle invitation, her mind turned blank.
She turned away but was reluctant to give up.
"If you don't want to give the land to Mr. Wen, then I won't divorce you!" With no other leverage, Jean was forced to use the divorce to bargain with Zed. After her exclamation, she turned and stared at Zed in anger.
"All right, it's settled." His voice was so indifferent that it sounded like he was making deals in the market, quick and decisive.
"What?" Jean balked as she heard his response. She thought she might have heard it wrong and stared at the man in dismay.
Zed closed his eyes and pretended to sleep.
'What did he just say?
Stay married?'
Jean was stupefied. She thought she had imagined his response. There was no way that he was happy with this agreement and would want to stay married. She shook her head in disbelief. There was no denying that she heard him say "All right, it's settled, " in his deep voice.
'Is he willing to stay married for that land?' 'It can't be that the CEO of a corporation would need the land so badly.'
"I never thought you would be so petty!" Unable to think of anything else as a retort, Jean clenched her teeth and left the room.
When Zed heard the door close, he opened his eyes and a faint smile played on his lips.
He was not being petty. He was reluctant to see her being taken advantage of by her father.
