The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 277
The triplets gasped loudly. "Mommy! Look out! A car is coming!"
Neera looked up and saw a blinding light. For a moment, she forgot to even move.
At the last second, Jean was able to respond in time. He pulled Neera out of harm’s way. Neera came crashing into his embrace.
The two of them fell down because of the huge momentum.
Jean made sure Neera did not fall onto the road and hurt herself, so she ended up lying in his arms. Her phone was dropped.
The car that was about to come into contact with Neera flew by with a loud, angry honking sound. After a few seconds, the light around them receded, and the noise died down.
Jean did not make a sound as he fell hard onto the road. Before he even checked whether he was hurt, he scolded Neera, "Do you want to throw your life away? Why were you so careless when you were crossing the road?"
Neera was still reeling from the shock. It seemed that her mind could not process Jean’s reprimands. She looked into his eyes blankly and saw that his brows were furrowed.
However, his arms enveloped her, and he did not seem like he wanted to let go. They looked really intimate at that moment.
Neera was only able to come back to her senses after a few seconds. She quickly apologized.
"I… I don’t mean for this to happen. Sorry, I was too engrossed in a phone call. It’s my fault. Are you alright?"
Jean’s voice was calm but devoid of emotion.
"Of course, I am not alright. What about you being a buffer to brace for someone else’s fall next time?"
Neera was embarrassed to drag Jean into her silly mistake. Jean was now lying on the road because of her. She apologized again.
Jean’s expression was hard to read. He said stiffly, "Get up now. How long do you want to stay in my arms? Do you want a crowd to form around us?"
Neera finally registered the fact that they were basically holding each other in public. Her face turned red immediately as she scrambled to get up.
While she was getting up, she pressed Jean’s abdomen area to give herself some support, which caused his abdomen to contract in response. An unspeakable emotion was coursing through Jean. He looked like he was trying to resist temptation.
He said nothing in the end as he stood up by himself. Then, he realized that he might have hurt his wrist. He frowned hard.
When he tried to rotate his wrist, a sharp pain came. He frowned even harder.
Neera noticed his discomfort. With a grave expression, she asked, "What’s wrong? Are you hurt?"
Jean answered mechanically, "I hurt my wrist."
Neera took his hand and checked it. "Let me see. Where did you hurt yourself?"
She looked nervous as she fidgeted with his hand. She was trying to gauge the extent of the injury.
Jean did not hide the fact that his wrist was hurt.
Neera poked and pinched his wrist with care, and in no time, she came to a conclusion.
"It’s a sprain, and luckily, your bones are fine. Let me massage you when we get back. You will feel better after that."
Neera felt a wave of remorse when she thought about the carelessness that caused Jean to hurt himself.
"I’m sorry. I never want this to happen. I will cross the road on high alert next time…"
Jean, for some reason, could not just berate her when he saw the pitiful look on her face. He replied coldly, "If you continue to be careless while crossing the road next time, nobody will be able to save you."
The triplets recovered Neera’s phone.
"Mommy, you gave us a huge scare! Don’t be so careless anymore!"
Penny hugged her hard, and she was shaking with fear.
When Harvey saw that she was fine, he let out a sigh of relief. He returned Neera's phone.
"Grandaunt is really worried about you."
Neera took the phone and put it next to her ears. Immediately, Adraina bombarded her with words of concern.
"Hey, are you okay? What happened? Did you hurt yourself?"
Neera shook her head and said, "I’m fine."
Adriana could finally rest assured. She could not resist giving Neera an earful.
"Don’t forget that you’re a mother of three children. How can you be so careless? I won’t be able to stop worrying if you’re still that clumsy."
Adriana let out a sigh. She decided to end the call for now.
"Alright, I won’t bother you for now. Look to your left and right when you are crossing the road. We will talk again when you get back."
Neera looked up and saw a blinding light. For a moment, she forgot to even move.
At the last second, Jean was able to respond in time. He pulled Neera out of harm’s way. Neera came crashing into his embrace.
