The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 1052
Isabella was taken aback for a moment and asked, somewhat surprised, “Why would you say that?”
Neera lowered her gaze, her eyes filled with inner turmoil.
“I know I love him deeply, and I've already decided that I want to spend the rest of my life with him. But because of what happened in the past, I can't let go of my resentment. Now, we're in this situation, and I can't help but wonder if my emotions are too extreme, if I've gone too far.”
Isabella didn't want her to blame herself, and she felt concerned about Neera's inner struggle.
She sighed heavily and pulled her closer. Sitting face to face with her, she offered comforting words.
“It's not being overdramatic. If this had happened to anyone, they wouldn't handle it any better than you are now. I understand how much pain the past has caused you, and I see the unfairness and sadness you've endured. I know how you overcame your struggles, and I understand your hardship. You struggled with depression before, and your classmates in school didn't treat you well. Aunt Adriana knew about our friendship and was thrilled. She even spoke to me privately and asked me to take care of you. That was when I realized the immense suffering you were going through. In this day and age, some people have committed suicide due to online harassment. You managed to come out of it and reach where you are now; that's already remarkable. You've endured so much pain, and your current emotions are entirely justified. It's human nature.”
Perhaps Isabella felt her words were inadequate, so she hugged Neera, providing the latter with comfort and support.
“In this matter, you are the victim, and there's nothing wrong with how you're treating Jean. He owes you this, so giving him some form of punishment is only fair. Besides, I have a feeling he thinks the same way. That's why there are still many people criticizing him online, and he hasn't responded. Most likely, he believes he deserves the criticism.”
Neera was stunned for a moment, looking at Isabella with a complex expression. She whispered, “Hadn't this incident been taken care of?”
“They have been handled, but only in your favor,” Isabella replied honestly. “Negative comments about you have been blocked and restricted. The official Beauvort Group account even issued a statement to clarify your innocence and brought forward some witnesses from the past to testify on your behalf. Everyone now knows the truth, and there's no more blame on you. However, the negative comments about him are still there and have been escalating.”
She then shifted the conversation, “But he deserves it. Don't feel sorry for him. After all, he should experience what you went through back then. Your current emotions are justified. Please don't think otherwise.”
Isabella understood that her words might be a bit biased, but even if she knew that Jean didn't intend to hurt Neera back then, she still wanted to support her friend and help her cope with the situation.
Neera listened quietly, her thoughts distant.
After a while, she finally spoke in a hoarse voice. “I haven't figured out how to face him yet...”
Isabella gently smoothed Neera's hair and said, “Then don't think about it for now. Get some rest. Tomorrow morning, we're heading back to Essley, and you can leave all this behind. Okay?”
Neera nodded silently, feeling a heavy burden on her heart.
After Neera lay down, Isabella stayed with her for a while to chat with her before finally leaving.
However, she didn't return to her room. Instead, she knocked on the neighboring door.
Ian answered the door, “Ms. Lopez, what can I do for you?”
Isabella's tone was cool as she said, “Where's Jean? I need to talk to him.”
Ian hesitated for a moment before inviting her in.
At this moment, Jean wasn't asleep at all. When he saw her, he asked in a deep voice, “How is she?”
Isabella didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point. “She's asleep now. Tomorrow, she's going back to Essley.”
She then watched Jean closely for his reaction, but he appeared unsurprised, as if he had anticipated this outcome.
Neera lowered her gaze, her eyes filled with inner turmoil.
