The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 101

Jean hesitated for a moment before he was about to answer.

Neera continued to say, "Never mind, it's not important! Can you loosen the rope first?" She shifted her body toward Jean.

At this moment, Jean finally realized Neera’s hands and feet were all tied up.

Jean confusedly asked, "How did you end up here? Shouldn’t Roxanne be here?"

Neera replied coldly, "I had no choice but to replace her! Mr. Beauvort was dying, and Roxanne refused to be left widowed!"

Jean frowned and fell into deep thought. Should I be angry at the Garcia family’s tricks? Hold on… Did Neera not yet realize I am the Mr. Beauvort she has been talking about?

Jean smiled and said, "Who said that Mr. Beauvort was dying?"

Neera said, "Everyone says so! There has been news saying that his health is poor. You are living in Kingsview. Haven’t you heard about it?"

Neera felt something was off but continued to say, "Anyway, can you please untie me? I’ve been waiting all day, and Mr. Beauvort hasn’t returned! I guess he gave up on the marriage too."

Jean wanted to tease her. Is she actually planning to escape in front of me? He ignored Neera’s request and sat down on the sofa calmly.

"It's too late. He's already back."

Neera was shocked and said, "What? Where’s him? Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Jean calmly said, "Even if I said so, you couldn’t escape either. There are guards downstairs. Do you think you can get away?"

Neera frowned and said, "Anyway, I can scare him away with my face now. But… Why don’t you escape now? Do you want to be caught? Hurry up and leave!"

Jean playfully replied, "What’s the point of kicking me out? If you were caught having a paramour, the marriage would be canceled, right? It would fulfill your wish, wouldn't it?"

Neera was speechless. I would not want to repeat my mistake again. I remember everything that happened in the past.

Neera stared at him and said, "What's wrong with you? Aren't you afraid of ruining your image?"
