    Chapter 533 Jealous


    After ordering, the waiter served the food for a short while.


    Jean picked up the juice and saluted Philbert.


    “Dr. Philbert, I can’t drink wine. I’ll use juice instead. Thank you for developing an antidote to save my


    mom. I heard from Neera that you put effort into this matter.”


    Philbert also picked up his ss and smiled politely.


    “You’re wee. I mainly wanted to help Neera. I’ve known her for many years. I’ll help her when she’s


    in any trouble.”


    Jean raised his eyebrows meaningfully. He could hear Philbert’s affection for Neera.


    He remained calm and smiled. “I know you and Neera are schoolmates and friends. It’smon to


    help each other and don’t need to take it seriously. But for me, I must show etiquette.”


    Upon saying that, Jean changed the and said with a helpless smile, “And not only for my mother but


    also


    for Neera.”


    Philbert’s forehead twitched. “Oh? Why di


    you say that?”


    “Thank you for helping Neera. The pressure on her has been relieved a lot. Every time she gets serious


    about her work, shepletely ignores herself. I was worried that she would copse from exhaustion.


    It was lucky that you could help her.”


    Philbert could not maintain his smile anymore. He had some doubt and frowned subconsciously.


    “May I ask what is your rtionship with Neera?”


    Philbert had never heard Neera mention Jean before. But Jean seemed to have an unusual


    rtionship with Neera. Philbert felt somewhat ufortable.


    Jean seemed unaware and smiled calmly. “Neera hasn’t told you yet?” He turned to look at Neera.


    Neera was suddenly confused, looked at Jean nkly, and then nced at Philbert.


    She was listening to their chat and felt something was w


    question at her!


    She had a headache for a moment and did not know how to


    But before she could react, Jean threw the


    answer.


    Jean’s rtionship with her was somewhatplicated. She thought Jean posed the question to her


    because he worried she would mind others knowing about their rtionship. He might have let her


    make a choice.


    She calmed herself and decided in her heart. Under their gaze, she looked at Philbert and slightly


    smiled.


    “Jean and I are engaged.”


    She spoke so bluntly that Philbert was visibly stunned. “Engagement? Why have I never heard you


    mention it?”


    His voice was a little unsteady and had an undercurrent surging in his eyes.


    Neera was focused on the question and did not notice anything strange about him.


    “Because we were developing an antidote, I never had time to tell you. As for my engagement with


    Jean, it got finalized after I returned to Kingsview.”


    She did not exin too much. Although her answer was ambiguous, it was true.


    “I see…” Philbert murmured.


    After a few seconds, he smiled again. “I didn’t expect that. Congrattions.”


    Neera responded naturally, “Thank you.”


    Jean was satisfied after hearing that. Neera admitted their rtionship. It made him feel good and full


    of joy.


    Of course, he did not miss the look of loss in Philbert’s eyes.


    Jean could see Philbert’s dejection even if Philbert showed absent-mindedness or a forced smile.


    I guessed well. Philbert likes Neera!


    This thought immediately made Jean feel a sense of crisis for no reason, and he was also slightly


    unhappy.


    Neera was good enough, and he forgot that such an excellent woman nevercked men to like her.


    Although the conversation continued during the meal, Philbert’s mood was affected, and he felt a little


    lost.


    After dinner, Philbert left quickly.N?velDrama.Org ? content.
