    Neera didn’t notice Jean’s peculiar expression; instead, she overheardn


    praising her ahead.

    “Ms. Garcia, you’re truly a heroine among women! Facing off against the


    formidable members of the Beauvort family, I was actually worried for you at


    first, but you held your ground and fought bravely. I admire you, genuinely


    admire you! I didn’t know you had such strength even without using


    medicine!”


    This was the first timen had seen rence and his son being put in their


    ce, and he couldn’t have been more satisfied with the oue.


    Neera found his words amusing and chuckled. “What are you talking about?


    Do I look like someone who would casually use medicine?”


    lan was taken aback for a moment, and his expression twitched slightly. He


    felt a bit numb and replied, “Aren’t you? If I remember correctly, isn’t that guy


    still in the hospital?”

    Neera shrugged her shoulders. “That was a special case. Zachary is a brute,


    2/6


    not a human! If I hadn’t used medicine against that kind of person, I’d feel like


    I wasted all the effort I put into preparing those medicines!”


    lan was left speechless.


    He wisely decided to keep his mouth shut and reminded himself never to


    mess with a woman-especially not with someone like Neera.


    Twenty minutester, the car stopped at the entrance to Imperial Gardens.


    As Neera was about to step out of the car, she remembered the envelopes


    and the invaluable hand bracelets she had received tonight.


    “Um, maybe it’s better if you take these back. After all, we’re only bound by a


    contract, not truly married…”


    epting such valuable gifts under a false identity, Neera couldn’t shake the


    feeling that it was inappropriate.

    But Jean shook his head, “Keep them for now. Consider the envelopes as a


    reward for today’s performance. As for the bracelets, wear them when we


    visit the Beauvort family next time.”

    Neera thought about it and agreed. Returning the gifts now might give the


    impression of disrespect to Wrenn and the Beauvort family if she didn’t wear


    them in the future.


    Anyway, she could return these things once the contract was over.


    She nodded and was about to step out of the car.


    Unexpectedly, Jean grabbed her wrist.


    Surprised, she turned back to meet the deep, ocean-like gaze of the man.


    “It’s raining. Take the umbre before going down.”


    “Oh… Okay.”

    She came back to her senses and thanked him softly.


    Walking down with the umbre, she couldn’t help but feel the lingering


    warmth on her wrist.


    His touch seemed to stay there, refusing to fade away…


    An indescribable feeling welled up inside her. When she reached her


    doorstep, she couldn’t resist rubbing her wrist, trying to shake off that


    peculiar sensation that wouldn’t leave.


    Once inside, the triplets were eagerly waiting for her.


    The three of them, along with their cute pets, rushed over with their short


    legs, looking expectantly at her. “Mommy, how did it go tonight? Did Uncle


    Jean’s family elders give you a hard time?”


    Seeing their adorable faces, Neera’s heart melted, and she smiled tenderly.


    “Thanks to the information you gathered, I managed to get through it all

    unscathed. You were a great help, and Mommy owes you one.”


    She praised the triplets and briefly recounted the events of the evening.

    The triplets were astonished. “Uncle Jean’s family isplicated, like a den of


    wolves… Seeing him like this, it’s heartbreaking. His health is already poor, and


    he’s targeted by so many rtives. Even though they’re family, he can’t let his


    guard down; it’s so sad…”


    Hearing the triplets’ words, Neera couldn’t agree more.


    Being in control of such a powerful family like the Beauvorts was like having a


    huge piece of juicy meat. Surrounding them were wolves and tigers, each


    one trying to sn atch a piece for themselves. It was a truly dire situation.


    Not to mention Jean’s health…


    Having to fight his own body, endure the torment of illness, and also deal with


    this group of scheming rtives, felt like a mix of beauty, strength, and? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.
