Chapter 161 - Are you married

" Oh… I mean.. Hello" Jean tried very hard not to laugh at his introduction. Of course she knew it is him but the way he gritted his teeth made her very amused for unknown reason.
"Do you know that we have been calling you since yesterday night. How can you be so irresponsible when it comes to company" Adam started to lash out his anger taking the advantage that her husband is not beside her.
But to his distraught Scott who just entered the tent listened his yelling and his eyes instantly darkened with dangerous glint.
"Honey…why did you come in. Is there something you want" Jean asked hurriedly, she don't want Scott to interfere more into this
"Hmm.. did I listen someone yelling at you" his voice is deadly dangerous and brimmed with seriousness.
Adam's limbs went numb as if he got shocked with thousands volts of current. His voice is literally like that of Anubis.
"No, It is nothing. Go and wait for me I will be there shortly." Jean pretended to plead him.
"Mr. Grey didn't I warned you not to disturb us. Yeah, she didn't call you back because you are unworthy of her attention and I didn't inform about your call because your family will make her mood off. I don't want to see her like that" Scott roared at them making Adam and others gulp their saliva.
God… he sounded very dangerous and he was acting like a child not too long back with his wife. How can he change his attitude too suddenly.
"Baby, it is fine. Let me talk to my uncle and there is no need to be this angry. Go now and enjoy" Jean scolded him softly and kissed him before shooing him away.
Scott chuckled and kissed her tenderly before warning again "Don't you dare again and it is better you remember my previous warning" after that he obediently went out.
This much warning will be enough for them to not make her sad. Though she act like she don't care about them anymore he knows who much she values a relationship and family. He don't want her to feel distressed when he is trying so hard to make her happy.
After Scott went out she sighed before waiting for her uncle to talk again. Adam who realized that the line went silent and after waiting for few minutes he talked back again.
"Are you really married"
"No, not yet but we got engaged and are living together almost from two years. We will marry soon but it is just a legal identity because in our hearts we are united from long back so you can consider it as we are already married" Jean said nonchalantly.
"Oh.. Who is he. Why don't you bring him home with you. This is your home anyway… " Adam tried to his extent to be casual and concerned.
Jean laughed bitterly at his pretentious concern for her. "No, he hates all of you to his core and I don't want him to get rash on you people. The place where he and my brothers stay is the place I call myself as home. So I am already in my home…you are just my relatives of my father. That's it" she shrugged while saying the last words.
"You… how dare you to talk to me like that. You found someone who treats you better than us so you turn your back to us. Huh.." he tried not to yell after listening to her man's warning.
"When did you treat me well. Can you keep your hand on your heart and frankly say that it is your deep concern and care for me. Even though you do that...I will never believe it, because you should know that I am not same girl who use to blindly believe others and use to hurt herself to extent level thinking that it is for her own family."
"So you mean we are no longer your family Huh…"
"I never said that or felt like that because I value all my relationsh.i.p.s and try to strengthen them. You are the people who took advantage of my feelings and used me. If I really would have felt like that do you think our family would be safe and prosperous with wealth. You people would have been suppressed long back. I still have hope that some of you will realize your mistakes" Jean said frankly and her voice is not fragile and fumbling like before.
"It is better we don't beat around the bushes uncle, I should go before my husband think you are harassing me and plan to do something against you" Jean warned them sincerely because it is true. If it isnt for her restrain he would have really taken extreme actions on them.
"You…how dare you" Adam barked at her. He felt so humiliated and he couldn't hide the fact that he started to fear for her man.
"I am serious uncle, if you have nothing to say then I will gladly end the call" Jean is really pleased by his afraid tone. How will he react if he get to know that Scott is the person he started to fear for....he might really get a heart attack.
"Fine… fine, I called you say about your position. You are unfortunately got voted as vice CEO for your charming skills and because of your so called brothers."
"As it is not in my hands or either in yours you don't need to pretend as if you are not interested. Come back and claim your prize. And the company also got a project with INA due to god's grace and I hope you don't mess with it."
"We will be hosting the banquet soon, so you need to attend it this Friday as vice CEO. Better you remember and come" his voice is stern and angry.
"No uncle, I can't. I will be still in my vacation so you carry on" Jean smirked.
"You… you. Is your vacation far more important than company matters. How shame of your irresponsibility" Adam is secretly happy that his timing to host the party is perfect . This will clearly cause bad impression on her.
"I don't have any problem in attending but it is my husband who don't want to get disturbed in our vacation. He will be angry if I do so...so you can ask him for permission and I will surely come. Should I give him my phone…" Jean smiled devilishly.
