The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 271

When TorrentCloud heard that Sammy was joining him, he could not hide the ecstasy on his face. He quickly pressed Jean.

"Mr. Beauvort, are these kids your relatives’ kids? They are too smart for kids that age. A bright future lies ahead of them!"

Jean felt proud to hear someone showering praise on the triplets.

He gave it a thought and mumbled, "Yeah, you can say that."

Then, he warned TorrentCloud, "You heard our conversation just now. You need to keep quiet about the fact that such a young kid is coming here. He’s too young, so we don’t want to attract unwanted attention, and on the other hand, we want to keep ourselves out of trouble’s way as much as possible."

Of course, TorrentCloud had no qualms about that.

After they were settled with their task here, Jean decided that it was time to send the triplets back to kindergarten.

While they were on the way, he asked casually, "About the payment of the system upgrade, do you think it will be a good idea to wire the money to your mother’s account?"

Harvey, who was always cautious, reminded Jean, "Uncle Jean, remember to switch to another bank account. You can’t reveal yourself."

This was nothing that Jean thought of at the moment. He smiled upon hearing that.

"Don’t worry. The money would come from an offshore account."



In the evening, Neera came to the kindergarten to pick up the triplets after wrapping up at her new shop.

The triplets acted like they normally would when Neera saw them. They did not mention anything about what happened earlier in the day.

"Mommy, how was the product launch? Were there many people?"

Neera controlled the steering wheel while she replied with a heartfelt laugh, "Everything went well.

You wouldn’t believe the crowd. Our sales for today even exceed the quarterly sales volume of other shops. The reception is quite good."

Upon hearing that, the triplets began clapping to celebrate the good news.

"That’s great news! The products of your company are so good. Many more would come flocking to your shop and fall in love with the products!’

Neera agreed with them. She produced an amused smile.

"Since the company was able to score a huge victory on the opening day, I decided to treat you guys to good food. You guys are free to order whatever you want!"

The triplets were even more ecstatic upon hearing that.

Sammy did not forget to tell Neera about his achievement today.

"Mommy, I received a task today! I upgraded the internal defense system for a company, and they would pay me handsomely! It seems that today is our lucky day!"

Neera stopped in front of a traffic light. She turned around and rubbed Sammy’s head. She could not be more proud.

"You are awesome! My babies, you all are awesome. I feel proud to be your mommy!"

Sammy was smiling from ear to ear. He quickly suggested, "Mommy, can we have a feast tonight? What about seafood?"

Neera gave the green light. "Of course, you all call the shots today!"

Sammy was waiting for her to give the green light. There was a slight cunning look on his face now as he asked, "Then, shall we invite Uncle Jean too? He has helped you a lot lately, so I think we should thank him in some way."

When Sammy brought up Jean, Neera froze for a moment. Then, she smiled wryly.

"It seems that you guys are becoming real good friends. Do you like him that much? Didn’t I treat him to a meal at home just a while ago?"

Sammy muttered, "Uncle Jean is really nice. That’s why we love him. What’s more, although we have all eaten together at home, we should still treat him formally to a meal in a fancy restaurant. That way, we can show how sincere we are in thanking him!"

Harvey and Penny chimed in in an attempt to convince Neera. They really wished that Jean could join them.

After a slight hesitation, Neera sighed helplessly.

"You guys have a point. Alright, we will invite him. I am not going to come up with an excuse to refuse you guys."

She then made a call to Jean to tell him their intention. She asked, "Do you have time tonight? Will you join?"

On the other end of the phone, a pleasant smile formed on Jean’s face as something flashed in his eyes. He immediately agreed to her invitation without hesitation.

"Where are we having dinner?"

"At Wonderland."

"Got it. See you tonight."
