Chapter 179 - Sudden mood swings
Jean’s mobile buzzed again and again making Susan frown with annoyance. Jean is in deep sleep and her complexion became normal and her forehead came back to normal temperature.
Though Susan don’t know what happened to her daughter in law she could vaguely predict that it is migraine but not pregnancy.
She decided to give them their own time and never insist on having grandchildren. After some minutes her phone buzzed again but it is her work call. It is not in silent mode because of emergency matters she might encounter in her work.
Because of the loud tune Jean startled and jerked awake in no time. She quickly jolted up and responded to call without seeing the ID.
It is her uncle...
Her face is full of irritation....
Jean frowned after listening to his disgusting voice. He sounded very happy as he mockingly grinned. " If you called me to just laugh and grin like that I will gladly cut the call" she sounded very irritated.
"....." what a polite greeting Huh..
"Oh... Jean. Why do you sound jealous darling, looks like you already got the news of my good fortune. Envious...huhhh" he laughed loudly.
Making her even more annoyed, she could feel her stomach getting sick again...
"I am irritated not jealous. I do really don’t care about your fortune. All I care about is my job there. So, if you called me to talk about work then I suggest you to finish it quickly or else I will be more than happy to end this disgusting call" Jean snarled at him.
Both Adam and Susan are surprised by her sudden change. She always use to be polite and collected but now she is like a wild cat...
Adam smirked thinking that his niece is very envious of him. Other wise why would she be so angry and upset.
"Dear, I am your uncle. You should not talk like that" he mocked again enjoying her state of mind. Probably her husband is not beside her otherwise he would have beaten him red and black by now.
"Is that so my dear uncle. Then I will cut the call and contact you back when I feel like to talk politely with you" Jean mocked back while rubbing her temples.
"You wouldn’t dare dear. Any way I called you to inform that banquet will be hosted this Friday in Grey’s mansion you better come on Thursday it self so you could be help for us" Adam smirked.
She will not surely bring her husband with her so she will be alone. This time Jasor is with perfect plan to tame her and he didn’t care if she is engaged or married to someone. All he need is she signing marriage contract with him.
"Uncle, if you want any help then I could send you some of my people to mansion. They will be more helpful than me. Why should I come if that isn’t my family any more" Jean sneered.
This is the real Jean. Wild and short tempered but she didn’t like to always be like that and in her college level she tried to control her emotions and started being cool and collected....she is so fierce and inciting but she controls them and what she used now is not even of tip of iceberg of her temper.
"You....when did we say we are not your family. You are the one who said that. Come or else.-" he warned her, his blood boiled uncontrollably thinking of their plan.
"Or else what. Huh... what can you do. Hmm.. Let me guess, your dear crime partner Mr. Keller would be enraged and will lash out his anger on you right." Jean laughed bitterly.
"You.. You, how could you over think that much. We know you are engaged so why will we do this, I am not that stupid" he yelled but he knew what all she said is true.
If Jean doesn’t come then Jasor will surely act wild and crazy. The only work Jasor gave him is to bring Jean into mansion before thursday evening. Rest assured because he promised that what all will happen after that will not effect Grey’s in any way. Jasor will take all the responsibility. If he isn’t that confident why will he promise this much.
"Yes my lovely uncle is not that stupid. That is the reason he asked Mr. Keller to take all the responsibility and the only help you are asked for is to bring me into mansion. Mr. Keller will surely give you huge amount if I sign the marriage contract with him. Because he is way shameless that he don’t care if I am taken or not." Jean smirked and her eyes are so menacing and cold.
"You, how do you think that extreme. Did you go crazy or I think you already have some spies in here" he really didn’t expect her to be this accurate because this is excatly what they decided.
"My dear stupid uncle, I am not like you. So sad that PA you appointed for me is not that capable of doing your chores. I am suggesting you to bring even more potential spy to work on me. And by the way I just guessed your agreement with Mr. Keller but lucky that it turned out to be true." Jean said it as matter of fact like she already knows this.
"How dare you Jean. You...I will" he stopped in middle when Jean laughed like a maniac.
"Cut the crap Mr. Grey, I do have many works to do. I will come on Friday to banquet directly, not because I am afraid of you both little rats but because I don’t want you both to be suppressed by my friends. You are my prey how could I let my friends play with you, I will feel bored in work if you will not be alive to pester me. So I am being little selfish Huh... don’t bother. See you on Friday" Jean said rather possessively yet her warning is so malicious.
They have never seen this shade of Jean. She is truly dangerous and intimidating. May be her headache is the reason she is so impatient to control her emotions. How could she be that heartless to call her uncle as a rat. She sounded like he is just a toy for her to play with.
Of course it is true. He is just a puppet in her hands who will lead the way to the real enemy. His wife is just a shortcut to find that person....
Jean didn’t notice the woman gawking at her who is sitting beside her bed on the chair. She throwed the mobile on to table annoyingly and closed her eyes tightly as if nothing happened before she slammed pillow on to her ears and drifted back to sleep. Her medicines are really so powerful that she has to spend most of her day sleeping...
Scott came out of the study after some minutes . Jean is still sleeping while his mother just sat there rooted in her place. He could sense that something is wrong with his mother.
He is already irritated with his team who again excused for some more time to find the pin point location of the hacker. But he is also pleased because the hacker will surely be founded before Saturday of this week.
Scott sat beside Jean and caressed her hair lovingly before planting a kiss on her lips. She snuggled closer to him subconsciously and smiled.
He chuckled and pulled her closer to him and wrapped her in his arms. Jean hummed happily and put her head on his shoulder before enveloping his waist with her hands.
She throwed one leg on to his legs and shifted to comfortable position and again went back to deep sleep.
His mom stared at their lovey dovey actions with amus.e.m.e.nt and she is also nervous. Never she expected Jean as that vicious...
Just not long back she was so aggressive and acted so short tempered. But now she is just a delicate and sensitive woman asking for a cuddle from her partner. How can a person act so different just in a span of minutes.
After looking at his lover for a while at last he acknowledged a woman sitting not too far from him.
"Mom, Did Jean wake up crying or feeling panicked." Scott asked worriedly.
"..." crying and panicked Huh... she just made her uncle go haywire and probably he would be found crying or grabbing his head due to the sudden assault of his unpredictable niece.
His mother smiled bitterly...
Scott noticed sudden change of expressions on his mother face and frowned. "Did anyone call her. Is it a someone whom Jean dislikes" he could anticipate why his mother is so shocked.
Until now she just saw good and extremely gentle side of Jean. And suddenly she would have seen bad tempered and intimidating shade of her. Little she knew this is nothing when compared to who Jean truly is, as she is weak and worn out she might have only used little bit of her dominant and overbearing character.
His mother nodded her head confirming his guess.
"This is too common when Jean suffers migraine. She will be irritated and will also have many mood swings" Scott said casually.
"...." Yeah, everyone could see that.
