Jean frowned and seemed to be offended. He said, "I wasn't easy to mess with before, and I'm not now! You deceived me for so long, you liar!"
Neera touched her nose, and her face reddened even more. I feel like there is something wrong with my mind. I strangely felt another underlying tone when Jean called me a liar.
However, Jean did not seem to notice and was busy dredging up past issues.
"Why did you cruelly refuse to treat me back then? Was it something personal against me?"
Neera blinked and said, "It wasn’t personal against you. It was against the powerful and wealthy."
Jean was stunned and confused. What kind of excuse is that?
"So you hate the rich? Jean asked.
Neera nodded and said, "More or less... At that time, I didn’t like treating the wealthy, so I never took on such cases."
Jean was somewhat amused and said, "Any specific reason?"
Neera frowned and responded, "Blame it on the Garcia family."
Neera did not elaborate, but Jean had an idea about what had happened. Years ago, when Neera returned from the countryside, she received no love or care but faced rejection and criticism instead. The Garcia family nearly ruined her life with their wealth! How could she not be disgusted?
Realizing this, Jean could not be mad at her.
"Alright," Jean said, "I can somewhat accept that reason."
Then Jean said teasingly, "So, do I need to curry favor with you in the future? Just in case you get mad and refuse to treat me?"
Playing along, Neera acted haughty and said, "It's good that you understand. In the future, you better be attentive."
After saying this, Neera could not hold back her laughter. Seeing Neera's mood improve, Jean also smiled.
Jean was about to leave when everything seemed to be clear. He asked Ian to get in the car. However, as soon as Ian entered, he couldn’t focus on anything else. He looked eagerly at Neera and said, "Ms. Garcia, so you really are Ms. Nancy?"
"You had no idea how much effort we put into finding you in the first place!"
"How could you hide it so well? I can't believe we saw each other daily, and I never realized!"
Neera frowned and said, "What? You have a problem with that?"
Ian shook his head furiously and responded, "Not at all! You even saved my life. Thank you so much! Thinking about it now, it feels like a fantasy! But then again, I was saved by the miracle doctor. That's quite an honor!"
With that, Ian took out a small notebook and said: "Ms. Nancy, can you please give me an autograph?"
Neera was amused and laughed. Their banter made me forget about the earlier discomfort.
After a while, Jean dropped Neera off at her office. When they arrived at the office, Neera said, "Hold on, I drove to work today, and my car is still in the hospital parking lot."
Jean said, "Give me the keys. I'll send someone to drive it back for you."
Gratefully, Neera handed them over.
After watching Neera enter the office, Ian asked respectfully, "Mr. Beauvort, are we heading back to the office?"
Jean's expression turned serious and she said, "No, to the mansion."
This decision puzzled Ian, but he followed orders.
Twenty minutes later, Frederic and Wrenn, who had arrived earlier, were surprised to see Jean.
"Why are you here? Is there another issue? Frederic asked.
Jean got straight to the point and said, "I came to discuss my marriage with Neera."
Upon hearing this, Frederic looked stern and waited a few moments before asking, "What do you want?"
Jean replied, "It's simple. Stop interfering in anything between Neera and me. Leave us alone! Alternatively, I’m okay with divorcing her, but I'll cut all ties and cooperation with the Marks family!"
Jean was not here to negotiate but to inform.
Wrenn was furious and yelled, "Jean, are you threatening us?"
Jean was unfazed and cold. He looked somehow firm.
Jean said calmly, "I'm just stating facts."
Jean continued to say, "I've always said, even if I weren’t married to Neera, it would never have been with Kyra!"
"For what happened today, we both know how much she was involved! For your sake, I can let it go. But this doesn’t mean I’ll tolerate her actions!"
"Whatever I decide, no one can change. If you two still want to maintain a good relationship with the Marks family, think carefully! Listen to what I said!" With that, Jean turned around and walked away.
