Chapter 595 The Secret Song


    Jean felt that Avery was justified when she heard what Avery was saying. Seeing the depressed look


    on her face, Jean started thinking and suddenly something dawned on her. With her eyes strangely lit


    up, she pulled Avery towards a corner and asked, "Avery, I just remembered. You were on a talent


    show where you met the entertainmentpany you worked for, weren''t you? Wasn''t that also where


    you met Adolf?"


    Avery looked at Jean with a puzzled face and replied, "Yes, but what''s wrong? Why are you asking me


    that now?"


    "So how did you end up winning that show? What talent did you utilize? Was it your acting skill, or your


    voice?" Jean put forward another question.


    "What I am really good at is singing. And that''s the genre in which I waspeting. But when I met


    Adolf, he told me to ept advertising work too, and I did a lot of it. Many producers and directors


    found that my acting skills were great too, so I entered the film and television circle. That''s how I found


    my stardom,"


    Avery looked at Jean and answered honestly.


    "Wow, I didn''t expect you to have so many skills and talents. No wonder you are so popr!" Jean was


    awestruck on hearing that andplimented admiringly.


    "Thank you." When Jean praised her, Avery blushed at once. She then asked shyly, "What made you


    ask this so suddenly, Jean?"


    "I just wanted to try to pair you both up by making you sing in front of Moore. I know he often listens to


    the same song in his spare time. I was wondering if you can sing it..." Jean looked at Avery and


    wondered with a smile.


    "What song?" Avery was somewhat surprised to hear that someone as dry as Moore had a favorite


    song.


    She had never seen Moore listen to songs and


    had always thought that he didn''t like music.


    "It''s an old ssic song, so I think you''ll need some time to study it. I''ll arrange for you to learn it,"


    Jean looked at Avery with a mysterious gaze and replied.


    Avery nodded, as if she hadplete faith and trust in Jean.


    Avery trusting her so much made Jean feel like she was the wolf from Little Red Riding Hood, and


    Avery was the little girl.


    It wasn''t a very nice role to y but for her to pair the two up, she had no other choice.


    With that in mind, Jean excused herself to Avery and went upstairs with Zed. Back in the bedroom, she


    started searching the Inte for some information. From her face, it was evident that she was really


    busy. Zed looked at his wife doubtfully, who was too lost in her work to even give him a nce. "What


    are you doing, Jean? Why are you acting so mysteriously?" Zed asked.


    Jean just smiled in response. "It''s a secret for now! You''ll know when youe back in the evening."


    "Don''t think I don''t know. You took Avery aside and whispered for so long just now, so it must have


    something to do with Moore. But Jean, you already know that Moore doesn''t like Avery. You shouldn''t


    push it too much,"


    Zed cautioned her with a serious face.


    "Oh, I really didn''t." Jean''s face showed grievance. "You''ll know when you get back in the evening


    anyway. By the way, you haven''t been to thepany all day today, Zed. You''d better get busy with


    your work first!"


    "Oh wait," Zed thought out loud sarcastically. "Who was that girlst night who told me that I simply had


    to take her to see Calvin no matter how busy I was the next day? But now, just after we have met him,


    she is telling me to go to thepany as soon as possible. Where is that girl now? You''re so


    ungrateful, Jean." Zed looked at her with a helpless face.


    Jean just grimaced at him and pushed him out. She mmed the door shut and almost hit Zed''s high


    nose.


    Zed was still stunned and stood outside the door with his face full of disbelief.


    He was pushed out... out...


    Besides feeling helpless, Zed was also curious about what Jean wanted to do.


    ''Anyway, I will know it by tonight.''


    He felt better when he thought of it. When he went downstairs to the living room and saw Moore, who


    had no idea what the two girls were up to behind his back and was still immersed in the television


    world, Zed could only show deep sympathy for him and go out silently.


    ''Fortunately, it''s not me at the receiving end of all these ns.


    Otherwise, I would have really suffered a lot. Take care, Moore.''


    Zed left for work.


    He was absent-minded all afternoon and wanted to rush home to see what Jean was doing.


    But he also thought that Jean would not let him know immediately even if he went home now, so he


    had to force himself to stay in thepany and read the dull documents.


    Hours passed, Zed eventually seeded in getting through the office hours. He hurriedly tidied up his


    desk and got ready to go home.


    It was the first time he was so anxious to get off from work and reach home.


    The secretary had wanted the boss to sign another document, but when he saw the boss in such a


    hurry, he could only swallow back the words that had almost reached his lips.


    He just held the document in his arms and considerately thought, ''The boss is anxious to go home. He


    must want to apany his wife. It''s not that urgent and can be signed tomorrow, anyway.''


    Just as Zed drove into the gate, he saw Mooreing back from behind with a bunch of bags in each


    hand, a littleborious.


    Zed quickly got out of the car and took most of the bags from him. He looked at Moore and asked,


    "Why are you alone, Moore? What about Jean and Avery?"


    "They said they were busy and wanted me to go to the supermarket to buy some snacks." Moore


    smiled helplessly and continued, "Zed, who knew that the snacks they wanted would be hard to find. I


    had tob through several supermarkets to buy them all."


    Zed looked down and saw that the bags in their hands were from several different supermarkets.


    Immediately he thought of something, and with a mysterious smile, he purposelyined, "Jean is


    really getting spoiled by me. How could she ask you to help her buy snacks? Didn''t she know to ask


    Toby or someone else to do it? I should educate herter."


    "It doesn''t matter, Zed," Moore said quickly. "I''m free at home anyway. This way, I get to asionally go


    out for a walk, and I can exercise too."


    Seeing Moore, who didn''t know what he was going to experience after a while, was still defending Jean


    like this, Zed just looked at him, shook his head and smiled unintelligibly.


    They walked into the house together. As soon as they entered the porch, they immediately felt that the


    atmosphere today was somewhat different.


    Although the sky had not yetpletely darkened, the lights inside the house had already been


    dimmed and there was a strange ambiance inside.


    Even the servants hadn''t turned on the lights and it was getting darker by the minute.


    They exchanged looks and put the bags by the door first. "The servants are more and more difficult to


    discipline now. Even the smallest things aren''t done well these days." Zed finished and went to press


    the switch.


    But after pressing back and forth several times, the room was still dark and unchanged at all.


    "Is there a ckout?" Zed muttered.


    The next second, as if he had understood something, Zed could not help looking at Moore standing by.


    Moore didn''t find anything unusual and repliedfortingly, "It seems so. Don''t worry. I am sure the


    electricity will be re-connected soon."


    ''Since Jean and Avery deliberately sent Moore away just now for a while, it seems that the protagonist


    of the story tonight is indeed him.''


    Zed felt a sudden sense of relief when he saw that Moore didn''t know anything about it. Before this, he


    was stillining that Jean even hid it from him.

    But now if he knew about it but didn''t inform Moore, he would have felt guilty. This way, he was


    fortunate to have been kept in the dark this time.


    He really didn''t know what the two girls wanted to do.


    Even the electricity was out!


    They groped slowly into the living room in the dark. Suddenly, a melodious, gentle voice came slowly,


    sadly.


    "Who knows, what love is..."


    The tune was long andsting. And even at the end of the first line, the intoxicating melody still seemed


    to reverberate in their ears.


    The lights also came on at this time, causing Zed and Moore to blink several times as their eyes had


    adjusted themselves for the dark and the sudden brightness was blinding.


    When they could finally see again, they just heard the music ringing again. Avery, with a microphone in


    her hand, was singing and walking towards Moore.


    She had intoxicating feelings in her eyes and a sad, beautiful expression on her face. With that fair-


    sounding melody, Avery sang affectionately and touchingly...
