The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 789

After Jean hung up the phone, Wrenn and Frederic were lost in thought and fell silent.

Wrenn could not bear with it anymore and burst into tears.

Startled, Frederic asked, "Wrenn, are you..."

Wrenn covered her face and cried deeply.

Wrenn said, "Do you think Neera intentionally sought revenge by concealing the true identity of the triplets? Had I known that the triplets were Jean's kids, would I have obstructed them like that?"

She sobbed, "I feel like she just wanted to see me unhappy."

Frederic listened and let out a long sigh.

Frederic said, "Wrenn, at this point, why do you still see Neera this way? She may not have deliberately concealed anything! I think she genuinely didn't know."

Frederic continued to say, "Remember how we suspected Neera was after the Beauvort family's wealth? But in the end, she didn't want a single penny! If she knew the truth, she could have simply told us, Why endure such suffering? She loves Jean so much, she would never take the initiative to get divorced."

Wrenn wiped her tears, feeling distraught.

Wrenn said, "So, what do we do now? What if Neera remains adamant? What should we do?"

Frederic shook his head, suddenly recalling the past.

"Wrenn, do you remember when we first met those triplets at Imperial Gardens? They were so adorable and warm towards us! What if they already knew their identity and were deliberately trying to get close to us?"

Wrenn was stunned and pondered for a while. She felt even more distressed and said, "If that's the case, our suspicions might have hurt their feelings. What if they no longer like us?"

Frederic seemed to regret it and said, "This situation is our fault."

Meanwhile, Jean lay in bed and felt worried. What if Neera ever discovered the truth a few years ago? What would happen if she knew I had lied to her for years? Would things remain as they are now?

Jean was used to strategizing for any situation, but he had no certainty in this matter. As the night grew darker, he finally decided to get up and visit Neera's room. Seeing Neera peacefully asleep, Jean felt a bit of relief and could not resist gently kissing her forehead.

A determined thought crossed his mind. Jean mumbled, "No matter what happens in the future, we must stay together."

Neera seemed to hear Jean’s words in her dream and unconsciously reached out to grab the hem of his shirt.

Jean noticed and smiled.

Then Jean whispered in Neera’s ear, "It’s you who wanted me to stay. I’ll follow what you want. He gently lifted the blanket and settled into the bed beside Neera. Holding her close, Jean finally drifted off to sleep.

On the other hand, Thora slowly woke up in a private hospital room on the city's outskirts. She felt disoriented as she saw the unfamiliar surroundings.

Before she could react, a hoarse voice echoed in the room. "Have you woke up?"

Startled, Thora sat up abruptly from the floor. When she looked around the surroundings, she found out there was a group of menacing-looking men in the room. Moreover, John was lying on another hospital bed beside her.

Thora had no idea what was going on, as the intimidating presence of these men had her thoroughly confused. She looked toward Jeffrey, who was sitting on a sofa.

Thora asked, "Uncle Jeffrey? How did I end up here? And what happened to John's hand?" If I was not mistaken, one of John's arms in his hospital gown appeared to be missing! How could his arm have suddenly been severed?
