The three little ones thought that they might be able to help and silently followed behind.
When they reached the bedroom door, Jean gathered his courage and gently knocked on the door.
“Neera, it's me. Aunt Adriana told me you haven't eaten. Can you please open the door? I'll bring the food in for you to eat.”
There was no response from inside.
After waiting for a few minutes, Jean sighed and decided not to push too hard.
“If you don't want to see me, I'll leave now. Regardless, please don't neglect your health. Even if you have no appetite, you should eat a little. Otherwise, your health will suffer.”
His voice was incredibly gentle and patient as he tried to soothe her.
Inside the room, Neera sat at the edge of the bed, hugging her knees, burying her head in her arms.
She had maintained this position for a long time.
After she returned to her room, it seemed as though she had sealed herself in her own world, with her mind filled with images from the past.
She felt numb, drifting in and out of reality, and all she could feel was endless pain.
Jean's voice intruded, but it seemed like she couldn't hear it. Her mind was filled with the insults and words of scorn from those years.
“Shameless sl*t, so desperate for a man that she throws herself at others. How disgusting!”
“She is engaged, yet she sleeps around with other men. What a promiscuous and filthy woman!”
“She has no sense of shame. How can the Garcia family have such a shameless daughter?”
“Definitely a rural bumpkin. She came to the big city and got dazzled by the lively and bustling scene. She forgot who she was. She's just a trash!”
“What a disgrace. if I had a daughter like this, I would have strangled her at birth...”
Various hurtful words kept drilling into her ears.
Neera felt like her head was about to explode, and all she could do was forcefully cover her ears and shake her head.
“Go away, all of you. Just go away...” she unconsciously muttered, but the more she did, the clearer those unbearable words became.
The mocking laughter in those words grew even more grating.
Neera's mind teetered on the brink of collapse, and she couldn't contain her emotions any longer. With her eyes closed, she angrily shouted, “Get out, all of you. Get out!”
Her cries were loud enough to penetrate the door.
Outside the door, Jean froze, and the three little ones were equally stunned.
They had never heard their mom shout so uncontrollably.
Is she so angry that she won't forgive Daddy?
The little ones looked worriedly at their own father, extremely upset.
Jean also felt a pang in his heart as though his heart was being tortured.
However, he remained gentle, trying to comfort her.
“Okay, if you don't want to see me, I'll leave now. Please don't be angry; it's not good for your health.”
With that, he took a deep breath and handed the tray of food to the children.
“Why don't you go inside and give it to her? I won't go in for now. I don't want to upset her further.”
“Daddy...”
Sammy nearly cried. His eyes were red, and he was extremely scared.
Jean patted his head reassuringly. “Don't worry, I won't give up. No matter how angry your mommy is, I'll wait for her to forgive me.”
With those words, he glanced one last time at the closed door and then turned and went downstairs.
Inside the room, Neera remained huddled, and the voices gradually faded away. She finally came back to her senses.
She released her hands from covering her ears, lifted her head, and realized what she had just shouted.
She heard voices outside the door and the footsteps of the man walking away, and she instinctively wanted to get out of bed and open the door.
However, as soon as she moved a little, she abruptly stopped, her face turning pale.
Not long after Jean left, the Park family and Isabella arrived.
They had rushed over after seeing the posts on Twitter to check on Neera.
“Adriana, where's Neera? How is she?” Nadine anxiously asked as soon as they entered.
Adriana wore a worried expression and shook her head. “Her current condition is not good. She's locked herself in her room, not eating or drinking. She won't open the door for anyone.”
Nadine was deeply concerned. “How could this happen...”
Elmer's anger had been simmering, and upon hearing this, he couldn't contain it anymore.
“That brat Jean dared to mistreat my precious granddaughter like this. I'll break his legs!”
With that, he turned around, ready to charge into the adjacent room.
He didn't care about the reasons.
All he knew was that Jean had taken advantage of Neera, causing her reputation to take a hit.
Jeremiah and his son quickly blocked his path.
“Dad, Neera's safety is the most important right now. Please calm down and settle the score later.”
“Yeah, Grandpa, you can't get too upset now. First, let's make sure Neera is okay, then we can deal with this.”
Isabella felt uneasy seeing the chaos in her family.
She took the initiative and said, “How about this? Don't panic for now. I'll go up first and see if I can talk to her.”
“That's a good idea.”
Adriana nodded repeatedly. “You're her best friend, and you two share everything with each other. If you go up, there's a better chance she'll open the door.”
