The Enigmatic Return (Neera and Jean) novel Chapter 961
“Sure, I'll call right away,” Neera responded.
After watching Adriana and Chad go upstairs, she walked to the balcony and called Marie.
“Mrs. Hanson, Mr. Hanson is in high spirits tonight and had a few drinks. He's a bit tipsy, so he's staying here to rest. He'll go back tomorrow.”
After hearing this, Marie felt somewhat helpless. “Obadiah is a good man, but he does love his drink. If he stays with you, will he cause you any trouble? Otherwise, I can send someone to pick him up.”
“No worries. There's no need for such trouble. Rest assured, we have servants here who can take good care of him.”
“All right then. I appreciate your help.”
After hanging up the phone, Marie was about to get up when she heard Thora's eerie voice coming from behind her.
“You went to meet the president of the World Medical Alliance without bringing your own daughter. Instead, you met with Neera privately. I'm puzzled. Why do you all like her so much? Could that wretched woman possibly be your illegitimate daughter?”
Astonished, Marie abruptly stood up. Her face was filled with anger as she glared at her.
“What nonsense are you spouting? Didn't you listen to what I told you a few days ago? Your father and I only have one daughter, and that's you! What illegitimate child? I forbid you to speak of such absurd things again!”
After speaking, she realized her tone was a bit too harsh. She fell silent for a moment, then could not help but soften her tone a little.
“Thora, even now, don't you realize your mistakes? When your father and I criticize you, it's for your own good.”
“Is it for my own good?”
Thora laughed as if she had heard a hilarious joke. Her laughter was exaggerated, yet her eyes were icy cold.
“Enough already! Drop your pretentious act and stop playing the role of a stern father and loving mother! In the end, you just don't want me to tarnish your reputation! Don't think I'm oblivious. I know very well that deep down, you look down on me! You believe I'm inferior in every way, that I tarnish your reputation, and that I'm unworthy of being your daughter! You all wish that Neera was your own daughter. That's why you're always fawning over her, helping her out, always speaking well of her, and supporting her unconditionally!”
After she finished yelling at the top of her lungs, she snorted coldly, turned, and walked away.
Marie was stunned and heartbroken by her daughter's perception of her.
She had gone through many hardships and difficulties to raise her daughter. As such, she couldn't understand how her daughter turned out like this.
She had been diligently educating her since she was very young.
Even if... they were not related by blood.
But she and Obadiah had always treated Thora as their own daughter. There was never once they had shortchanged her in any way.
As for treating Neera differently, it was because the girl was sensible, exceptionally capable, and kind-hearted.
Most importantly, that girl possessed impressive medical skills.
However, that did not mean they were favoring that young girl.
Ultimately, in their hearts, Thora was still their daughter.
Is it true that without a blood relationship, one truly can't raise someone to be their own...
Meanwhile, in the manor, Neera hung up the phone. She felt that the bustling hall had become considerably quieter.
In the end, only Daisy, Jean, and Neera were left.
Neera turned to Daisy, who was leaning against the couch and clutching her forehead, and asked with concern, “How are you feeling? Are you feeling uncomfortable?”
Daisy glanced at her and flashed a radiant smile. “What's the matter? Are you afraid that I'll disturb both of you?”
Neera playfully pushed her forehead. “What are you thinking? Of course not.”
Daisy spread her hands. “Well, it's a bit of a pity, but I have to tell you, I'm feeling a bit dizzy. I need to rest early.”
At that point, she pushed herself up while holding onto the couch and let out a sigh.
“I was actually hoping to see the triplets tonight and looking forward to playing with them. Those kiddos are just too adorable. I've been missing them for quite some time.”
She had been on a business trip before, during which she met the triplets, and she liked them very much.
Neera chuckled. “They'll be back tomorrow, and then you can play with them. For now, you should get a good night's rest.”
Upon hearing that, Daisy was overjoyed. “That's wonderful! I'll go rest first, recharge my energy, and have a great catch-up with the little ones tomorrow!”
Afterward, she declined Neera's offer of assistance and went upstairs on her own.
Neera watched her walk away, but Daisy did not seem dizzy to her at all. It seemed she wanted to give Jean and her some privacy.
This girl is really thoughtful...
Neera shook her head with a smile, and as she turned around, she met Jean's eyes, which held a half-smile.
“The triplets knew that their mommy was actually planning to treat them like toys, to be given away for others to play with.”
