The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 1251

"It's great that you feel this way," Adriana said with relief. "Seeing how close you two were, I always thought it was a shame. Now that you've reconciled, I can finally relax."

No sooner had she finished speaking than the triplets walking ahead suddenly turned around. Their eyes sparkled like stars, and their faces were filled with smiles brighter than sunshine.

"We can finally breathe easy! Mommy, you and Daddy have made up at last. From now on, we'll be a complete family!"

Watching their excited behavior, Neera couldn't help but laugh, finding it incredibly heartwarming.

For the next two days, Neera chose to stay at home to recover. It was a good opportunity to spend time with her aunt and the children by taking walks in the surroundings.

The triplets were overjoyed that their father had been forgiven. While Neera was taking a bath, they took the opportunity to call Jean.

"Daddy, Daddy! Great news! We heard that Mommy has forgiven you! You two can be together again! Are you happy to hear that?"

Listening to their voices chirping like larks, Jean couldn't help but chuckle.

"What do you mean, getting back together? Your mommy and I have never been apart. We just had a little disagreement, that's all."

He corrected them first, then said, "You're a step behind with the news. I already knew."

"Huh?" The triplets were surprised. "Did Mommy tell you?"

Jean responded with a hum, his tone carrying a hint of pride.

Sammy pursed his lips, letting out a sigh.

"Daddy, you're so mischievous! How could you not tell us about such an important matter? We worry about you every day!"

Jean couldn't help but laugh, indulging them, "Alright, alright, it's my fault. How about I make it up to you later, okay?"

With a snort, Sammy deliberately kept Jean in suspense.

"We actually have some good news to share with you, but now, well..."

Jean raised an eyebrow. "What's the good news?"

With a lift of his chin, Sammy coolly said, "I'm not telling you!"

Jean chuckled before calling out to Harvey.

However, Harvey could only give him a helpless look.

In the end, it was Penny who sided with him, snatching the phone with her chubby little hands. Her small face was practically glued to the screen, her beautiful big eyes sparkling.

"Daddy, Daddy, since they won't tell you, I will. It's about Mr. Cox!"

Upon hearing her mention Avery, a flicker flashed across Jean's eyes. "Alright, Penny, tell me about it."

Penny said with a smile, "It's not a big deal, we overheard Mommy and Auntie chatting about personal matters. When Mr. Cox was mentioned, Mommy made it clear that she doesn't like him at all and that she has no feelings for him. She's just very grateful for his protection and care. She even said that she doesn't want to lose you!"

Upon hearing these words, Jean was initially taken aback. His eyes widened as he grinned from ear to ear. The joy he felt came from the bottom of his heart.

Even though he was well aware of Neera's feelings, hearing them at this moment still brought him immense satisfaction.

After a moment, the crux of the matter dawned upon him.

"Aren't you guys on the island? How could you hear those words?"

Penny chuckled playfully while her eyes glistened.

"We came with Auntie and Uncle to see Mommy!"

Taken aback, Jean sat up straight.

"Are you in Phison now?"

"Yes, this place is so beautiful. The manor is massive, just like a castle! The best part is, we get to be with Mommy. Daddy, aren't you jealous? Ah, if only you could be here too, then our family would be reunited..."

A flicker of emotion ignited within Jean's heart. The thought of the children by Neera's side made him somewhat restless.

After hanging up the phone, he looked at the mountain of files in front of him and immediately called Tiago.

"Come to the study right away. Hurry up."

Tiago thought something serious had happened. He drove at breakneck speed, burning rubber along the way. Upon arriving, he dashed into the study room in a flash.

"What's happened?" He panted, plopping down across the desk, and ran his fingers through his wind-tousled hair.

With an expressionless face, Jean pushed a stack of documents in front of him.

"Get it done within the day."

Tiago was rendered speechless.

He glanced at the documents, then at Jean before taking two deep breaths.

"You called me here just to deal with office work?"

Jean replied indifferently, "As the deputy lord, this is part of your duty."

Tiago was on the verge of losing his temper as he irritably ran his fingers through his hair.

"I'm not trying to complain, but you've kept me here for so long despite my playful nature. I've been eagerly waiting for your return, and now you won't even let me rest? This is inhumane! I object to it!"

Jean was going through some documents as he casually replied, "The latest Lotus supercar, a limited edition commemorative model where there's only one in the world, is already on its way here by ship."

Whoosh!

Tiago nudged his chair forward. Without uttering another word, he dived straight into work.

After reviewing two reports, he glanced at the person across from him.

"You seem to be in a hurry. Is something going on? Do you need to leave?"

Jean elegantly signed his own name, flashing a light smile.

"I'm going to see my wife."
