The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 1128
Neera and her children expressed how much they missed each other. Then, the triplets seized the opportunity to give their mother earnest advice.
“Mommy, you must be careful. You have a fiancé! Your engagement with Mr. Cox doesn't count!”
“Remember, you must absolutely keep your distance from Mr. Cox!”
“Mommy, we really don't want Mr. Cox to become our stepfather...”
Neera couldn't help but laugh heartily, “All right, All right. Do you think I don't know what I'm doing? You kids shouldn't be worrying about this. Otherwise, your worries will weigh you down so much that you can't grow taller.”
“Huh? That won't happen. You're talking nonsense, Mommy. Take it back!”
After going back and forth with them, Neera decided to call Chad again. “Uncle Chad, how have you and my aunt been these past few days?”
On the phone, Chad's voice was very kind. “We're fine. You don't need to worry about us. Instead, how are you adjusting over there?”
Neera leaned against the balcony railing, laughing as she said, “I'm doing quite well, actually. Mr. Cox took me around District Fourteen. This place is really huge...”
After a bit of small talk, she got down to business. “Uncle Chad, Shane has already returned to the Gordon family to make arrangements. He said he would come to pick me up in a few days.”
“Shane has told me.” Chad reassured, “Just set your mind at ease. I've made arrangements. You can go back without worry. Don't hesitate to fight back if anyone gives you a hard time there. Show your strength as needed. If anything happens, I'll take responsibility.”
Upon hearing those words, Neera immediately felt at ease. “Uncle Chad, thank you. With you as my strong support, I fear nothing.”
Chad was quite pleased, grinning from ear to ear. “I'm glad to hear that. You're not the type to admit fear.”
Adriana was also listening nearby. Seeing him hang up the phone, she voiced her concerns to him uneasily. “I still feel uneasy. Don't you think it'll be better if we go with her? If you're there, your family members probably won't be too reckless.”
Chad peeled an orange for her, soothing her with a smile. “You don't need to worry. I believe Neera's in good hands. Despite her young age, she's reliable. You can tell from how she handles her matters that she's a steady one. Besides, she may encounter such situations in the future. Giving her a chance to handle things independently and gain some experience is better than her stumbling later on.”
Adriana sighed, unable to resist blaming him. “Why insist on handing over the Gordon family to Neera, letting her take over? Why not give it to Shane? Even though he's a man, he's the most outstanding of the younger generation in the Gordon family. He can handle those matters more adeptly, and I don't think there'll be much objection.”
“What you've said, I've considered it all before. However, my elder brother and his wife died tragically. All these years, Shane has been burdened with this unresolved grief. I've asked him about this before, and he has no interest in the position of the Gordon family's head. In his heart, revenge is his top priority.”
“Besides him, there are others in his generation, right? Surely, someone can be chosen from them as a successor?”
“The younger generation of the Gordon family is spoiled now, spending their days in pleasure without much real ability. Who among them can bear significant responsibilities? If it weren't for the lack of options, I wouldn't have placed this heavy burden on Neera's shoulders, putting her under such immense pressure. However, I really have no other choice...” Chad sighed, finding himself somewhat at a loss for words when it came to that topic.
“Rest assured, in the future, if Neera is unwilling to be the head of the family, she can choose her successor as long as they are suitable. I think it wouldn't be a bad idea to consider the triplets. Harvey and Sammy are quite impressive. These two lads are very much like Jean. They are definitely top-notch talents in the future. Entrusting the Gordon family to them will be quite appropriate.”
Adriana chuckled, giving him a light shove. “You sure have a knack for reaping the benefits of others' work, always picking the ripest peaches, so to speak.”
Chad didn't deny it, leaning over to give her a kiss. “Regardless of what happens to the Gordon family, it's all up to the younger generation now. As for me, I don't have the energy to interfere anymore. The rest of my life belongs only to you.”
Adriana's face suddenly turned red.
On the third day of Neera's arrival in Phison, news of the Gordon family's heir returning to the family spread like wildfire.
That time, the Gordon family was on the district election list. It was safe to say that the entire Phison was paying close attention.
Hence, one could only imagine the amount of attention the soon-to-be next family head was receiving!
