Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman

Chapter 539 Mother, I Have Come To See You

Hearing the slight exclamation that had involuntarily left Jean's mouth, Moore turned around.

He saw that she was standing and gazing solemnly and a bit too intensely at the gravestone which had

a picture of his mother on it. He coughed lightly.

Jean blushed a little when she heard that and quickly retracted her look. Then, she stood solemnly in

front of the gravestone.

The atmosphere was quiet in the cemetery and occasionally a few bird songs could be heard.

"Mother, I have come to see you," Moore whispered at the gravestone. "Please forgive me for not

coming to see you for so many years. From now on, I'll come and visit you every year. I'll come and talk

to you always on time."

"Hello, Moore's beloved mother. I'm a friend of Moore's, and my name's Jean," Jean introduced herself

since she thought it would be polite and make Moore happy. "I came to see you for the first time today,

and I am really nervous. I didn't expect you to be so beautiful. After seeing you, it is no wonder that I

find to be the excellent personality that Moore is. You can rest assured that I will take good care of him

for you and won't let anyone bully him as long as I live and breathe."

When Jean uttered the word anyone, there was a slightly higher tone in her voice and her teeth were

clenched tightly.

Standing behind them, Gary understood that the 'anyone' in Jean's mouth was referring to him. His

face changed a few expressions and he looked deeply at Jean, observing her.

Moore pulled Jean's sleeve and wished his mother, "Rest in peace, mother! I've let go of the past and I

don't want to get involved with them anymore. No one can change my mind. You can rest assured that I

will be fine."

He finished, bowing deeply to the gravestone.

Jean also bowed to the gravestone three times with Moore.

Then they stood upright and turned around to leave.

"You're leaving?" Jean was surprised to see him wanting to go away so soon.

"Yes. I'll come back and visit her again when I have time." Moore ignored Gary's existence and walked

right past him.

Jean nodded in agreement as she clearly understood what having time meant. "Well, I'll accompany

you whenever you do," she promised.

"Wait a minute..." Gary saw that they were really leaving and quickly stopped them.

But Moore and Jean went on as if they hadn't heard his appeal.

Gary grinned bitterly and chased them all the way, stopping in front of them. "Moore, please don't do

this to me," he begged bitterly.

Moore expressionlessly stared at him and asked with a sneer, "What have I done to you? And what do

you want me to do? Should I crawl in front of you and respectfully call you Mr. Gary?"

"Moore, I'm your father! That year, I didn't mean to lose you. I've been looking for you for eight years

since you disappeared, until I finally found you in Chicago. Then over these years I've been trying to

make it up for you, but you've never given me a chance. Moore, you just told your mother that you will

let go of the hatred. Please do that okay? From now on, let me make up for everything I've done...

Please!"

Gary pleaded.

Jean was surprised to see him in a completely different light today.

Contrary to the last time, he had completely lowered his attitude and was pleading wholeheartedly for

Moore's forgiveness.

Right now, he looked exactly like a poor father, praying for his son's forgiveness for his mistakes.

If he knew it would be like this today, would he still do it in that year?

But Moore had already grown up now and all those years of injuries were planted in his heart forever. If

Gary really wanted to be forgiven, it was not enough to just say a few simple words. He must have

something else to do.

'Besides, where were you when Moore needed you the most?

Where were you then?

Oh yes. I remember! Well, that was the most critical time for your career. You were busy marrying Edna

for future at that time, ' thought Jean.

She sneered at the thought and said, "Mr. Gary, you don't have to ask Moore to forgive you. Because

you don't deserve his forgiveness at all. Moore won't forgive you either. You'd better give up now!" Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Jean finished and pulled Moore to walk ahead.

Gary was anxious and sweat was rolling down his forehead. He looked at Moore and slowly tried to

explain, "I know that you hate me and you have a right to, but I really didn't expect that things would

develop into what they are today. Moore, the truth that year was not what it looked like. And when I

found out that you were missing, it was too late. You had already been sent abroad."

"What's the truth?" Jean frowned and looked at Gary.

"It's..."

Gary had just opened his mouth, but Moore interrupted him.

"Jean, let's go." Moore finished, pulled Jean and walked straight past Gary.

Jean couldn't help looking up at Gary's face. His well-maintained face was pale, and Moore's disregard

had made him take a big step backward painfully.

He was standing on the uneven steps and from the looks in his face, Jean was afraid that he would roll

down the steps without paying attention.

But before she could take another look, Moore took her down the hill quickly.

Finally, when she turned back once again, Gary in the distance was left with only a blurred figure.

A figure that looked lonely and desolate.

"Moore, slow down a little!" Jean asked Moore.

"I'm sorry." Moore immediately slowed down and looked at her guiltily. "I just forgot you are pregnant in

my anger."

"It's all right," Jean replied quickly. "Moore, actually I think he's poor. Why didn't you let him finish? You

could have given him a chance to explain. I think he really wants to take you home. Maybe there really

was some misunderstanding that year and..."

"Jean, stop talking about it!" Moore interrupted bitterly when he heard her words. "Whatever the reason

for his actions, it does not change the fact that he abandoned me completely. No matter what he does

now, I won't forgive him."

Moore finished resolutely and there was a firm expression on his face.

"I'm sorry. I just saw Gary's look and thought he was poor, so I didn't pay attention to your feelings and

spoke it out," Jean quickly apologized.

"He is poor? Jean, don't be confused by his pretense," Moore snorted on the idea. "Let's just go back!

Don't be influenced by unimportant people. I'm really in a bad mood today because of him."

Jean heard Moore say that, and she couldn't say anything more. She followed him down the hill and

they drove all the way downtown.

As they passed the Wanda Plaza, Moore suddenly looked at Jean and broke his silence. "Jean, didn't

you mean to go shopping today? I completely forgot!"

"Ah?" Jean did not respond for a while and looked at Moore in bewilderment.

"Go shopping! I will accompany you!" Moore finished and asked Toby to drive the car into the plaza

parking lot. Then, without waiting for a confirmation, he opened the door and got off.

Jean looked at him in surprise. She couldn't understand his behavior.

Hadn't he just said that he was in a bad mood?

Did it mean that, like girls, when he was in a bad mood, he would be happy if he went shopping?

Jean felt as if she had discovered the truth.

Seeing that Moore was in the mood to go shopping with her, Jean was also in a good mood and smiled

happily.

"Well, let's go shopping happily today!" Jean said as she took out the Centurion Card from her bag.

Seeing the Centurion Card, Jean suddenly thought of something. The smile on her face disappeared

and she looked at Moore and said, "Moore, since the person behind the video incident is Calvin, we

should settle the commission with Leo, too."

"Yeah, I almost forgot about it." Moore nodded as he heard her remarks. "We're out right now. How

about asking him out now?"
