The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 373

Chapter 373 Jean Is Unhappy
Upon hearing that, Adriana looked helpless.
“I came back to see you in a hurry. I haven’t contacted anyone. The Garcia family doesn’t know about it. So I’ll live with you for a few days. When the time comes, I’ll return to the Garcia family to see your grandparents.”
Neera was happy Adriana would live with her, so she readily accepted it.
It was dinner time. Adriana had been on the plane for ten hours and was already hungry.
“I’ve never been used to plane meals. I’m hungry now. Let’s go out to eat. I haven’t come back for a long time. I miss Kingsview’s food!”
Adriana also thought of the triplets. “The kids are still at school, right? Let’s pick them up first. Then we’ll have a reunion dinner!”
Just as Neera was about to agree, she suddenly remembered that she had made an appointment with Jean to return to the mansion.
What a coincidence. Neera had no choice but to refuse Adriana. “Sorry, not today. How about tomorrow? I have something to do tonight.”
Adriana wondered. “What matter is more important than me? It’s late. No matter how busy you are, you have to rest! Put aside other things and accompany me tonight! Let’s go to dinner!”
“But…”
Before Neera could figure out how to explain, Adriana dragged her out involuntarily. Along the way, no matter how Neera begged, Adriana did not take it seriously.
“It’s an important matter. Aunt Adriana…”
Seeing Adriana glaring at her, Neera felt a little depressed and helpless.
At the same time, Jean returned to the mansion. Frederic and Wrenn were naturally happy to see Jean.
“Why didn’t you tell us to come back for dinner tonight? I can prepare your favorite food.”
Wrenn stepped forward to take Jean’s coat while grinning.
Jean sat down, took the teacup from Wrenn, and said gently, “Nothing. I’ll eat whatever you make. How is your health? Are you fully recovered?”
Wrenn nodded. “I’ve recovered. It wasn’t a serious illness. Just a bad cold.”
Jean was relieved and only then said, “Neera will come later.”
Upon hearing that, Wrenn became colder and snorted. “It’s okay if she doesn’t come. We’re already satisfied for you to come back.”
Jean knew that Wrenn was still angry with Neera, so he calmly spoke for Neera.
“Mom, don’t be angry. Neera didn’t break the appointment on purpose. She accidentally got into a car accident on the way and was sent to the hospital. That’s why she didn’t come.”
Frederic and Wrenn were stunned when they heard that.
Frederic asked anxiously, “How is she now? Is she injured?”
Wrenn pursed her lips. Although she did not ask about Neera, she also stared at Jean.
“The car accident wasn’t serious. She had a slight concussion and no other injuries. She has left the hospital.”
Jean did not mention the Crimea Group attacking Neera evilly.
Hearing that, Frederic breathed a sigh of relief.
“Since an accident happened to her that day, don’t take it to heart,” Frederic told Wrenn.
Wrenn glanced at Frederic and snorted.
“I’m not unreasonable. If there are special circumstances, I won’t mind it. Forget it. At least Neera knows to make amends.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Jean’s phone rang. It was WhatsApp from Neera.
On the chat interface, she sent a series of emoticons pleading for forgiveness accompanied by a paragraph of
text.
“Sorry, I can’t go to the mansion tonight. My aunt suddenly returned home today. She insisted on me to accompany Ker. Please help me to explain to your parents. I’ll make amends on the other day!”
After seeing it, Jean became gloomy and looked a little unhappy.
