The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 683

Karl appeared at the Beauvort Manor early in the morning the next day.

Frederic and Wrenn were surprised to see him.

"Karl, what’s wrong? Why are you here?"

He greeted them respectfully and said, "There is something that I would like to talk to you about."

The three of them went to the living room. “What do you want to talk about?”

Karl didn't beat around the bush.

"Dad, I came here for Jean. It was an ugly mess at the family assembly yesterday. Everyone is uncomfortable in their hearts. I’m afraid that there will be more people who will be against Jean if he disposes of those with wrongdoings at once.”

"They were wrong to do that. Jean gave them chances before but they wanted more and more. It was not wrong for Jean to do that.”

Karl nodded. "I’m afraid that they will harm him privately. Dad, I’m worried about him. That's why I’m here to warn you.”

“You came here just to say this?”

Karl shook his head.

"Those people who backstabbed Jean deserved it but the culprit who triggered all this is Neera. Jean was targeted by the whole family because of her. If this continues, Neera will become Jean’s weakness sooner or later…”

Wrenn was particularly concerned when it came to Neera.

The crowd attacked Jean because of Neera and her kids yesterday. It’s intolerable! If Jean hadn’t prepared something in advance, I’m afraid that Jean was replaced by someone already!

Frederic and Wrenn had the same stance. After yesterday's close call, he was dissatisfied with Neera.

Karl observed their expressions and threw the bait at the right time.

"I've recently met a doctor who can cure Jean's condition, and coincidentally, that person is Neera's teacher's daughter. She’s a little younger than Neera, but she’s on par with Neera. I've heard quite a bit about Neera from her."

“What is it?” Wrenn asked.

"A while ago, there was a lot of news about Neera doing all sorts of charity. The one who was involved in the charity was her teacher's research center. Her teacher couldn't bear to see her being slandered, she turned a blind eye and voiced out for her. Neera greedily claimed those honors that belonged to the research center.”

“Is it true?” Wrenn frowned.

“Of course. Ms. Hanson is Obadiah’s daughter, she wouldn’t slander Neera. I told her about Jean’s condition and she agreed to save his life. She wanted to stop Neera from being a hypocrite that’s why I persuaded her first. What do you think?”

Wrenn was pondering about the credibility of Karl’s words.

“You can't just listen to Ms. Hanson's side of the story. It was Jean who clarified Neera's incident in the first place. There wouldn’t be room for mistakes since he was the one who looked into it.”

Although Wrenn couldn’t accept Neera, she had to admit that Neera was outstanding. Jean wouldn’t like someone who would play dirty. She couldn’t completely believe in Karl.

“Many organizations came forward to clarify for Neera. The evidence and details showed the donation was from Neera’s account. It made no sense for her to donate anonymously if she was greedy to claim those honors. No one would clarify for her if she’s that bad. It was weird for Ms. Hanson to tell this. She’s problematic.”

Karl was surprised at Wrenn’s reaction.

“I’m not too sure about her personality. I think we can give it a try if she has great medical skills. If Ms. Hanson can’t do it, we can ask for her father’s help. Her father’s medical skills are unlikely to be less than Neera's."

"What do you think?" Wrenn asked Frederic.

"Let's put this matter aside first. We’ll discuss it some other day. The most important thing right now is still this shareholders' meeting."
