The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 19
Ian quickly stepped aside and said, "Sire, it's someone we know!"
Jean was surprised when he saw the people in front of him.
He raised his eyebrows and exclaimed, "Why is it you again?"
Those words were directed at Neera.
"…" Neera was visibly uneasy. …Yeah, it's me again!
She forced a smile and said, "Haha… What a coincidence!"
Jean narrowed his eyes and said, "It is a coincidence indeed! It's not so surprising to meet each other in the hotel, but why do I see you in my house?"
Neera was not happy when she heard that. What's the meaning of that?
She laughed out of anger. "Do you think I'm here to flirt with you? I've already told you not to be so narcissistic! How would I know you live here?"
Jean smirked. Evidently, he did not believe her.
The triplets tried to ease the tension.
Harvey said, "My mommy is telling the truth. We're not stalking you… We moved in next door this morning, and we accidentally broke your window. We're only here to apologize!"
"Yes, Mr. Handsome. This is all a misunderstanding. It must be fate that we get to meet again! Can we all tone down the hostility?" Sammy said.
Jean was surprised to hear that. He turned his head to look at Ian.
Ian nodded. "That seems to be the case. They're here to apologize for the broken window, and we were talking about compensation…"
"You have to believe us, Mr. Handsome. We're not bad people!" Penny said while going up to Jean and taking his hand.
Her hand was soft and meaty. Jean seemed a lot less hostile as soon as her hand touched his.
He nodded slightly and said to Neera, "I trust you, for now."
Neera nearly rolled her eyes at him.
She could not be bothered to argue with Jean, so she diverted the conversation back to its original course. "Can we talk about compensation now? Let me know the extent of the damage, and I'll pay accordingly."
Ian said, "Please wait for a moment. I'll get back to you with a figure…"
Neera nodded and watched Ian leave.
Jean remained at the door with Neera and the triplets.
The triplets were happy to see Jean. Now that an awkward silence hung in the air, they asked him, "Mr. Handsome, are you feeling better?"
"Has your fever subsided? Why don't you rest more?"
Jean's cold expression softened when he heard those adorable children's voices.
"I'm feeling a lot better now. Thank you for your concern," he said patiently.
Harvey said, "My mommy's acupuncture and medicine are very effective! You still have to take care of your health though."
Jean nodded and said, "Yes, I will."
Neera was slightly jealous at how the triplets showed Jean so much concern. At the same time, she was also surprised.
The triplets had always been very wary of strangers. Why did they look like they were very close to that man despite only having met each other a few times?
Moreover, the man always wore a long face. He did not look approachable at all!
While Neera was pondering the question, Ian returned and said, "…Doctor, I've calculated the damages. You need to pay us five million dollars!"
"What?" Neera was shocked when she heard the figure. "Are you trying to rob me? How can a window and a vase cost so much?"
Ian seemed to have expected Neera's reaction. He smiled and said, "A regular vase wouldn't cost so much, of course, but you've broken an antique vase that Sire won in an auction a few years ago! If you don't believe me, I can show you the certificate of authenticity!"
Jean was surprised when he saw the people in front of him.
He raised his eyebrows and exclaimed, "Why is it you again?"
Those words were directed at Neera.
