The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 25

Jean deleted the message without a second thought.

Naturally, he did not attend the meeting the next day.

Alfonso and Susan waited at the café for two hours. When they eventually left, they did not look too pleased.

Susan was about to lose her temper. "Jean Beauvort has gone overboard! He didn't even tell us that he's not coming and wasted our time!"

Alfonso was not happy too, but at the same time, he was secretly relieved.

"It's a good thing he didn't show up! Roxanne isn't here either, and I've been worried about how I should explain to Mr. Beauvort. Now, he owes us an explanation instead!"

Susan nodded, though the frown never left her face. "Things can't go on as they are though. Roxanne can't marry Mr. Beauvort, and Neera is unwilling to compromise. What are we going to tell Mr. Beauvort when he demands the bride?"

Alfonso thought about the problem for two seconds and gritted his teeth. "If we don't have any other choice, we'll hire some people to abduct Neera and send her over to the Beauvort family! Mr. Beauvort already said to skip the formalities and send the bride over when it's time."

Susan was relieved to hear that. "If that's the case, shouldn't we find out where Neera lives? That'll make things easier!"

"I've already gotten someone to investigate. They should get back to us in the next few days," Alfonso said.

Susan nodded. She seemed to be pleased about how things would turn out.

As long as she could seal Neera's fate, the entire Garcia family fortune would fall into her daughter's hands!

…

Neera did not know that someone had arranged her marriage.

The next day, she received her belongings that were shipped from abroad. She and her children spent the entire day unpacking.

After dinner, the triplets took a leash each and prepared to bring their pets out for a walk.

The pets had also been brought in from abroad. They were puppy triplets named Ace, Cece, and Pixie.

Ace was the leanest and most intelligent one. Cece was a glutton and was the roundest. Pixie was the fluffiest with pure white fur, and Penny dressed her up with a ribbon, a golden bell, and a pink dress.

Neera's heart melted when she saw her three adorable children bringing the three puppies for a walk.

She followed them at a constant distance behind them.

When they walked past the mansion next door, the children stopped and tried to peer through the gates.

Sammy commented, "I wonder if Mr. Handsome has eaten, or if he's feeling better. I haven't seen him for the entire day."

"Yeah! I kinda miss him!" Penny nodded and said.

Neera laughed and poked Penny's forehead. "You've only met him three days ago! Why are you missing him already?"

Penny replied, "It's true, Mommy! Somehow, I find him very familiar as though I've known him for a very long time!"

Sammy raised his hand and said, "Yeah. I feel the same way too."

Harvey knew what to say next. "Mommy, your first consultation session with Mr. Handsome is tonight, right? You should give him your recipes too! You're already giving him your medicine. He'll recover faster if his body receives enough nutrition!"

Neera did not deny that statement.

The man's constitution was too weak, and her treatments might make him suffer a lot.

But… I've only agreed to treat him. There's no mention of nursing him, right?

Harvey seemed to know what his mother was thinking. He said, "Mommy, we should finish whatever we start, right?"

The other two children added, "That's right, Mommy! Didn't you always tell us to help those in need? Mr. Handsome needs our help now. Shouldn't we do our best to help him?"

"Mommy, let's give Mr. Handsome the recipes now."

Neera was speechless.

The triplets knew her too well. They knew what to say so she could not refuse.

At least it meant that she had educated them well.

"Fine. I'll give him the recipes now," Neera said helplessly.

The triplets grinned and said, "We'll go and ring the doorbell!"

Before Neera could react, they had already rung the doorbell.
