The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 673

Most of the people present had just returned from abroad. They were unaware of the happenings in the family, especially the two uncles who remained neutral.

They were unaware of the rumors online and would only appear during important meetings of the family.

They frowned once they heard Seren’s words. They questioned Jean sternly. “Is it true that she had 3 kids?”

Jean didn’t answer them.

Clarence confirmed, “It’s true!”

One of the uncles knocked his cane on the carpet. “It’s ridiculous! How could we accept someone else’s child?”

Clarence was pleased with his reaction and continued adding fuel to the fire.

“Yes, Jean shouldn’t fool around with his marriage as he is the head of Beauvort family. The marriage was to bring luck to him due to his poor health back then. We had no choice and it was excusable. Since Jean’s health has improved now, he still ignored the rules of the Beauvort family. He married a woman who fools around which damages the reputation of our family!”

These words were spot on for the uncles. The others also expressed their disapproval.

"I didn't realize there was such a thing. How could Jean marry a woman like that? It’s such a disgrace!”

“Jean should marry a woman from a noble family like us. How could he marry a woman with 3 kids?”

“This is the first time for a shameful incident like this to happen in the family…”

The uncles looked at Frederic and Wrenn furiously. “What’s your opinion on it? Are you accepting that woman in your family?”

Wrenn didn’t utter a word while Frederic answered calmly. “It’s true that we couldn’t do anything about it. There’s some improvement with Jean’s health but his condition is not stable yet. We still need Neera to treat him. I’m not sure what would happen if we stopped the treatment. Jean still needs Neera now…”

“You’re exaggerating, Frederic. I guess it’s Jean who is unwilling to leave Neera, right?” Clarence scoffed. “Just by looking at Jean’s complexion, we could tell that he is almost healed. You guys should know the cause of his condition. Another doctor can treat him now. It's not only Neera who could do it! Do you guys know what Jean has been doing recently? He spoiled Neera badly. I heard that he attended a parent’s meeting for the 3 kids while claiming to be their father. He even brought them to the company and nurtured them as successors for the company.”

There was an uproar when they heard Clarence’s words. Everyone was astonished.

Clarence sneered. "Previously, Jean fought with Jonas for Neera’s kids in the company. He was completely bewitched by her! He ignored everything including the interests and reputation of the Beauvort family.”

Jean still didn’t have any reaction after hearing the accusations.

The uncles glared at Jean and scolded him harshly.

“Jean, what Clarence said, is it true? Are you really nurturing the kids as successors? How could you hand the Beauvort Group to outsiders? It’s ridiculous!”

“We chose you as the head of the family because of your abilities. How could you act recklessly because of a woman now? The successor of the Beauvort Group had to be of the family bloodline. There’s no chance for outsiders!”

The others began to protest, they disapproved of Jean’s behavior.
