The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1376

Chapter 1376

Neera was taken aback. Tilting her head back, she rested her chin on his shoulder and chuckled, “Why the sudden display of affection?”

Jean didn’t laugh. He buried his face into her shoulder and inhaled her scent. His heart skipped a beat.

“Thank you, Neera,” he said in a low and contented voice.

He knew she had always been clear about her preferences.

She would never forgive those who had once hurt her, nor did she wish to have any contact with them again.

It wasn’t about being petty; it was a habit of self-protection, a result of being deeply hurt.

But this time, she made concessions and let go of the past for him.

Even though she verbally claimed there was nothing to forgive or not forgive, in her heart, she had already silently forgiven.

All of this was fueled by her feelings for him.

Neera curved her lips into a slight smile, reaching around to embrace him. “Don’t thank me for anything. Say it again and I might just get angry.”

Knowing she was teasing him intentionally, Jean raised an eyebrow, his gaze tender. He loosened his arm, stepping back slightly.

The next moment, he kissed her, their lips closely intertwined.

Neera tilted her head back, surrendering to his gentle kisses. Her eyelashes fluttered like soft willow branches drooping down, allowing him to conquer her.

Inside the restroom, the door was slightly ajar, and three little ones were sneakily peeping through the crack, spying on the inseparable lovers outside.

Afraid of being discovered, they quietly closed the door again, hiding in the bathroom. They covered their mouths and giggled softly.

Frederic’s condition improved, and everyone gradually relaxed.

After Neera returned, she was busy at the hospital, not paying attention to anything else. Now, she finally found time to visit Edward.

Edward was delighted to see her. Ignoring his work, he threw his pen aside and walked toward her.

“Neera? When did you come back? Why didn’t you tell me? I could have picked you up at the airport!”

Neera smiled. “I’ve been back for a while now, but I’ve been so busy that I didn’t get a chance to contact you. Things aren’t as hectic now, so I thought I’d come and see you.”

As they sat down and chatted, Edward was the first to ask, “What would you like to drink? I’ll have my assistant prepare it for you.”

Neera didn’t hold back and replied, “I’ll have a cup of coffee.”

Edward called for his assistant and gave instructions. He then turned to her. “What happened? I heard you went to Phison but came back suddenly. It must be something serious, right?”

“Yeah, it was a big deal, but it’s resolved now,” Neera told him about Frederic’s situation.

Edward was somewhat surprised. “No wonder there were so many rumors outside. Turns out they were true.”

As he spoke, he looked at his cousin with a face full of admiration, showering her with endless compliments.

“Thank goodness you took action. Otherwise, Mr. Frederic wouldn’t have survived.”

Neera chuckled. “You’re exaggerating. I’m not an expert in heart transplants. We owe it to the Meyer family for finding a heart. Dad’s medical team was efficient.”

Edward didn’t care much about this matter but shifted the conversation to Jean.

“Anyway, Jean is not to be underestimated. Previously, there were all kinds of rumors and speculations about Beauvort Group. As soon as Jean took charge, all the gossip immediately disappeared. Beauvort Group is stable now. Not only that, I heard that he recently secured an international cooperation contract. It’s really admirable.”

Jean being praised made Neera proud.

She smiled slightly, her eyes glittering.

At that moment, Edward noticed the diamond ring on her hand and raised an eyebrow.

“This ring isn’t an engagement ring, is it? It looks like a proper wedding ring.”

Neera lowered her head and spread her hand. “Yes. Is it beautiful?”

Edward sincerely said, “It looks good. Have you made up your mind to marry him?” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Yes.” Neera nodded. “He’s the one for me in this lifetime.”

Edward leaned back, letting out a long sigh.

“Fine, then. If you like him, then he’s the one. I just feel a bit regretful that we met so late. We missed out on a lot. Otherwise, I could have had a better chance to evaluate him.”

Saying that, he laughed, looking at Neera with gentle eyes.

“But it’s okay. Fortunately, our family is reunited. From now on, the Park family is your strong support. Remember, if you face any grievances, don’t keep it to yourself. Tell the family. If he dares to make you unhappy or bully you, even if I have to risk my life, I won’t spare him. I’ll settle the score for you.”

Neera felt warmth spread across her heart as she nodded firmly.

In the past, she had experienced many unfortunate events-her mother’s early death, her biological father’s abandonment, neglect and dislike from her foster parents, mistreatment and scheming from her stepmother and stepsister…

All those experiences became insignificant at this moment.

All those experiences became insignificant at this moment.

Now, she had her aunts and uncles, grandparents, cousin, her children, and Jean by her side.

They loved her, unconditionally supported her, accompanied her, and protected her. Thus, she was content with what she had.
