The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 201
"It's not like that …" Roxanne hurriedly explained and elaborated on the events that occurred at Susie's Cakes.
The more Zachary listened, the darker his expression became. He finally gritted his teeth and said grimly, "It's that pretty boy again!"
Roxanne studied his expression and grew jealous when she thought what he cared about was Neera hooking up with someone else.
She knew she couldn't throw a tantrum at him. All she could do was shift the blame on Neera. That b*tch should've died abroad!
Roxanne swore to herself that she was going to make Neera suffer no matter what!
She could barely stifle her anger when she got home that night. She was so furious she couldn't even eat.
"What's wrong? You don't look so good," Susan asked out of concern when she noticed there was something wrong with Roxanne.
Roxanne slammed her cutleries on the table and told Susan and Alfonso about Neera's flings.
Susan was fuming. "This isn't the first time she's done something like this. We've seen the same thing happen five years ago. To think she isn't restraining herself even after marriage! Has she no shame?!"
Alfonso's face sank. He slammed his hand against the table fiercely. "That shameless wh*re of a daughter!"
Roxanne narrowed her eyes as a calculating smirk made its way to her face. "Mom, Dad, since she refuses to change her ways, why don't we give her a little push?"
Susan and Alfonso were puzzled by her words. "What does that mean?"
Roxanne immediately explained her thoughts. "The Beauvort family reneged on their promise. They only gave us so little of the promised dowry despite agreeing to the bride price. Surely, we aren't going to take the humiliation lying down. We should teach them a lesson! This is the perfect opportunity."
"The daughter-in-law who only just joined the family is hooking up with random men. Guess how the Beauvort family will react if this were to get out. This will not only teach them a lesson. We'll also be ruining the wh*re's reputation!"
The plan would allow them to kill two birds with one stone. The more she thought about it, the more excited she became.
She couldn't wait to see Neera spurned and kicked out of the Beauvort family!
Alfonso had no objections. Neera was, after all, someone who couldn't bring him any benefits. She was also beyond his control.
He didn't care about such a useless daughter.
…
Rumors began to circulate in high society that night about the Beauvorts' new daughter-in-law being indiscreet about her affair.
The news soon reached the ears of both Frederic and Wrenn.
The old man didn't want any more problems. His expression sank.
Wrenn was even more infuriated. "I knew it! That woman was always a restless one. I thought she would change after marrying into the family. It's only been a few days and she's already causing trouble. What kind of behavior is this? She's a disgrace to our family name!"
She was too enraged to tolerate this and hurried to see Jean.
Frederic was not happy that his favored youngest son was suffering such humiliation and didn't stop her. He followed the woman to the Imperial Gardens.
Jean was done with dinner by then. He couldn't help feeling puzzled when his parents arrived. "Mom? Dad? Why are you here? Did something happen?"
Wrenn got straight to the point and demanded, "Where's Neera? I want to see her."
Jean was even more confused.
Neera was, as of right now, next door. He sighed and made an excuse.
"We just had dinner. She went outside to take a short stroll. What do you want with her?"
Wrenn suppressed her anger and said seriously, "I have something to ask her."
Jean probed, "About what?"
"Let's wait until she's back," she said.
His brows furrowed. It seemed something serious had happened.
He ordered Ian to bring Neera here.

Author uses too many words to describe useless things and then don't clarify others, who is this aunts friend. Neere went to play golf with who?...
Why is she keeping so many secrets from Jean?...
