The Enigmatic Return novel Chapter 233

Jean did not expect her to ask such a question. He was stunned for a moment, then quickly returned to his senses and immediately answered, "No."

Neera did not think so. "No? I feel that you're quite hostile to Levi. Something was wrong in the conversation between the two of you. Anyone who saw it would think you're angry."

Jean would not admit it and vetoed it again, "I have no hostility toward him."

That man has no qualifications to make me hostile.

While uneasy, Jean noticed Neera's suspicious gaze, so he reluctantly explained, "I did that to cut off his fantasies. After all, you're still my wife. We agreed before that during the contract period, try not to keep in touch with the opposite sex as much as possible. At least you're not allowed to mess around outside to avoid having any bad influence on me."

He paused, then added, "You should know best. The rumors are terrifying."

What he said made sense. So Neera nodded. "Alright. I got it."

She did not think much about it and said, "I'm a little dizzy. I'll sleep for a while. Wake me up when we get home."

Jean nodded. After Neera closed her eyes, he read his documents.

However, he could not concentrate and felt impetuous for no reason.

Although Jean refuted Neera, he knew he was pissed off while confronting Levi. He did not know the reason.

Suddenly, he felt something lean on his shoulder. Turning his head, he saw Neera's face close to him.

Neera was a little drunk. She fell asleep in a daze, and her head tilted unconsciously.

Her skin was delicate, without any blemishes. Due to the close distance, Jean could feel her steady breathing. It made his heart inexplicably itchy and restless.

After a while, Jean endured his feelings, ignored them, and let Neera lean on his shoulder. Ian, who was driving, glanced at the rearview mirror. Seeing the scene, he could not help but secretly think.

Mr. Beauvort would have thrown a woman out of the car if a woman approached him. Only Ms. Garcia has this kind of treatment! Sure enough, Ms. Garcia is different in Mr. Beauvort's heart.

Half an hour later, the car stopped outside the gate of Imperial Gardens No. 2.

Jean woke Neera softly. "We're here. Go home and tidy up. Go to bed early."

Neera rubbed her eyes, saw the familiar house, and thanked Jean.

As soon as they left the car, the triplets, who waited at the door, immediately greeted them.

"Uncle Jean, thank you for bringing Mommy back!"

Jean responded softly, "You're welcome."

Penny shook Neera's hand. "Mommy, I've made hangover tea for you. It's warm! Come in and drink!"

Neera was overwhelmed by Penny's caring, so she agreed immediately. Harvey and Sammy took Jean's hands and invited him warmly.

"Uncle Jean, it's still early. You have been working all day and picking up Mommy. Come in for a while!"

"No need, thank you." Jean rubbed Harvey and Sammy's heads and refused gently.

However, Harvey and Sammy strongly demanded Jean, "Uncle Jean, please come in! You can drink Penny's tea too. Her tea can sober you up and also soothe your nerves. It's our thanks to you!"

Jean could not refuse their kindness, so he followed in.
