The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 1511

Chapter 1511 

By the time the plane carrying Elmer and Mariah landed, it was already past ten in the night. 

Neera was eagerly waiting at the arrival gate. After a long wait, she finally spotted Elmer, Mariah, Nadine, and Jeremiah. She quickly waved at them. 

Nadine was the first to spot Neera, excitedly leading her family toward the latter. 

Upon meeting, Neera first greeted Elmer and Mariah.

Elmer’s mood was relatively calm, but the light that shone in his cloudy eyes revealed the joy he felt upon seeing Neera. 

As for Mariah, her emotions were noticeably more stirred. 

This was the first time she saw Neera after her recovery from illness. 

At that moment, she looked at her granddaughter, who was so close at hand. She couldn’t help but tremble with excitement, and tears welled up in her eyes. 

“Neera!” Her voice trembled as she raised her hand, cautiously placing it on Neera’s cheek. She wanted to caress Neera, yet she seemed to be afraid that all of it was nothing more than a dream. 

Seeing through Mariah’s fear, Neera felt a pang of sympathy. She quickly took her grandmother’s hand, gently stroking it. “Grandma, I’m here. It’s me, Neera, your dear granddaughter.” 

Upon hearing those words, Mariah acted as if something had finally been confirmed. She suddenly burst into tears, embracing Neera as she began to cry. “Neera, my granddaughter… I’m glad you’re here. Otherwise, I would live my entire life in pain…” 

Watching that scene, both Nadine and Jeremiah felt a twinge of heartache. 

Neera felt a bitter-sweet sensation in her heart, a touch of pain, yet also warmth. 

She embraced the elderly woman, soothing her gently, “Grandma, don’t cry. I’m still here. I will take my mother’s place and keep you company.” 

After a good while, Mariah’s emotions finally settled down. 

She wiped her tears and bade farewell to Neera. However, her hand was still holding Neera’s. She glanced to the side, looking at Jean, her expression immediately turning a bit displeased. “Young man, I still remember how you hurt my Neera before. Why are you here again?” 

When that was mentioned, Elmer also got a bit worked up, lifting his chin and grunting twice in displeasure. “Exactly. You’re not still obsessing over our Neera, are you? Is that why you forced Neera to marry you? Let me tell you, no matter who you are or which company’s president you are, if you don’t treat our Neera well, don’t even think about tying her down for life.” 

After he finished speaking, he pulled Neera aside and asked her seriously, “You little rascal. You’ve gone and gotten a marriage certificate, yet you didn’t even discuss such a big deal with us. Tell us honestly, did this young man pester you relentlessly, forcing you to marry him? Don’t worry. We’re all here for you, backing you up. No one will dare to mess with you!” 

Neera was first taken aback, then she couldn’t help but feel nonplussed. What on earth is going on here?

She quickly shook her head in denial, “Grandpa, you’re overthinking it. I married him willingly. There was no question of any coercion.” 

Elmer looked at her with a puzzled expression. “Are you serious? You’re really doing this willingly? I thought after he hurt you so deeply, you wouldn’t want to marry him anymore…” 

Neera rubbed her forehead. “That’s all in the past. Besides, he didn’t know about the incident six years ago. It was a special circumstance that led to the mistake. It was all a misunderstanding. What’s in the past is in the past.” 

Seeing that she didn’t seem to be lying, Elmer and Mariah finally felt at ease. 

“All right, since you’re willing, we shouldn’t stand in your way.” Next, Elmer glared at Jean, his small mustache quivering. “You listen well to me well. Even if you’re married to Neera, if you dare to hurt her again, divorce is still an option! We won’t let our granddaughter suffer the slightest bit of injustice! You’d better stay on your toes! Or else I won’t let you off easily!” 

After much difficulty in reuniting the family, Jean was immediately met with a warning. Despite feeling a bit helpless, he didn’t get angry. 

He knew that the Park family cared deeply for Neera, so he solemnly assured them. “Grandma, Grandpa, rest assured, I regard Neera as more important than my own life. I will never let her suffer even the slightest injustice again.” 

Elmer hummed twice more, leaving it unclear whether he was satisfied or not. 

At that moment, Nadine stepped forward to mediate. “All right, all right, no need to stand around here any longer. Let’s get in the car quickly. Whatever you want to talk about, we can discuss it once we’re in the car.” 

Upon hearing that, Elmer and Mariah finally relented. Holding Neera’s hand, they began to walk toward the outside of the airport. 

Jeremiah fell a step behind, walking shoulder to shoulder with Jean, comforting him. “I know they were a bit harsh with you just now, speaking rather bluntly. Don’t take it to heart, and don’t blame them. They’ve finally found Neera back, and they treasure her like a gem. They certainly can’t bear to see her suffer even the slightest grievance. At that time, you two seemed to be on the verge of breaking up, and Neera was very upset about it. That’s why they were displeased with you. When I heard that you two got married, I admit, I was also worried that perhaps Neera hadn’t thought it through. Hence, the first thing I did when I got back was to figure out both of your attitudes toward marriage. Since neither of you is treating marriage lightly and is serious about it, there’s nothing more for me to say. Live your lives well as a couple. As your elders, we won’t interfere. Rest assured.”
