My ex-husband is in love with me (FULL) -
Chapter 732 Have You Ever Cared About Me?
David hated Arthur for his relationship with Ezra.
Arthur and Ezra were good friends. For this reason, David was hostile to Arthur.
David had no hostility to his boss Julian. That was because he knew that Julian, like him, was with Maisie. Julian once fell out with Ezra for Maisie's sake.
However, David felt that Arthur was more inclined to stand on Ezra's side. After all, Arthur had little interactions with them, unlike Julian.
The good thing was that now Arthur knew that Maisie was pregnant with Ezra's child, but he never told him that.
Jean also saw Arthur standing not far away from them. She frowned slightly. She didn't know why Arthur came here, but she knew that it was better not to let Maisie see Arthur, who had something to do with Ezra.
David did not want to see Arthur either. Jean could feel it.
She didn't want to bring emotional instability to Maisie and David because of someone she knew, so she whispered to David, "Could you please go back and take care of Maisie? I'll talk to him." David nodded, got up and left.
Arthur's expression showed that he had misunderstood their hug. David had no intention to explain. He did not like him, and he did not care.
Jean walked up to Arthur and asked, "Why do you come here?"
Arthur was jealous because he saw Jean hug David, but he did not want her to see that. He looked down at Jean and whispered, "Where else can I replace you?"
These days, he had reflected on his feeling for Jean.
He loved her. That was love.
Because he loved her, he blamed her for leaving without saying goodbye when she was abroad, for her indifference to him, for treating him as if he was just a random sex partner, and for forgetting him after they had slept together.
He was not a womanizer. She was his first woman. He also wanted her to be his last woman.
But when he returned to her after graduation, she had completely disappeared.
For the first time in his life, he was dumped so thoroughly that she even did not give him an excuse.
During this time, he went to Jean many times, but each time he was turned away. He had no choice but to follow her here.
Jean looked away to avoid Arthur's eyes, "As for Maisie and the child—"
Arthur gave his word before she could finish her sentence, "I know. I will keep it a secret."
Arthur was fully aware that the existence of Maisie's baby was a big thing. He had no right to tell Ezra because he knew that this might change the fate of Ezra and Maisie.
It was a good thing that they were in peace now. He did not want Maisie to wade into the muddy waters of Ezra Cantillo and the Cantillo family.
Currently, his father was treated in his hospital for his cancer, so he knew more about the Cantillo family and their current situation than outsiders.
With Ezra's father's admission to the hospital, the fight between Ezra and his two sisters began to heat up, because it was related to the fate of the Cantillo family after their father's possible death. It was not a good time for Maisie and this newborn child to be involved.
"Thank you." Jean had nothing to say to Arthur except these two words.
Arthur looked at her face and thought of her hug with David just now. He felt so upset. He asked, "Jean, could you give me another chance?"
Jean smiled apologetically at him and then raised her left hand. There was a simple but stylish ring on her finger. She said, "Sorry, I may be engaged when I go back."
"What?" Arthur was shocked.
He did know that her parents had been introducing her boyfriends since she returned to her family's company, but he didn't expect that she would get engaged so soon! He could not believe it even though he heard it from her.
Jean drew back her hand without saying anything, and then she turned and left.
Not everyone would wait in the same place. After meeting again in Riverside City, she gave him a chance and waited for him patiently, but he was always mean to her.
She thought that he must have lost interest in her, and that was why he always put her in those embarrassing situations.
So she gathered her heart and returned to her family business. She no longer had any intersection with doctors. She wanted to completely forget about the days with him.
She had thought that he would come back for her, but he was no longer in her plans.
She may indeed be engaged. She came to help Maisie this time. She also wanted to readjust her heart. If there were no accidents, she would say yes to that man's proposal when she went back.
The man introduced by her parents was also an overseas returnee. He was engaged in the financial industry. From his occupation to his appearance and personality, he was just the kind of flawless man that her parents liked.
Just when she turned around and took a few steps, she was suddenly jerk back by a staggering force.
Jean fell into the arms of that man, unprepared. Before she could make any response, Arthur held her face and kissed her deeply. He was so aggressive that Jean felt that her lips were injured.
Because both of them were good-looking people, they had attracted quite a lot of attention from some of the people coming and going to the hospital.
Jean was furious. She stamped Arthur's feet and pushed him away. She shouted at the top of her lungs, "Are you crazy?"
It was perhaps the first time Jean had lost her temper. She had always been calm and rarely lost her temper.
And in her memories, Arthur was a modest and gentle man, who acted in a reserved and restrained manner, and was not the person who could force kissing a lady in broad daylight.
Arthur's eyes were bloodshot. Ignoring the inquiring gaze from the people around, he approached Jean step by step and snarled, "Even if I am, it's all because of you!"
He even came forward and grasped Jean's wrist, holding it tightly in his hand, for fear that she would run away from him again.
"Jean, I don't accept it! I met you first!" Arthur said obstinately.
Jean did not struggle and simply let him hold her hand, but the smile on her face was cold and her tone was sarcastic, "You have known me a long time ago, but please be noted that no one would be waiting for you all the time.
"Have you ever cared about me when I was waiting for you?" Jean finally said what was in her mind for a long time.
