    Chapter 590 She Has Her Eyes on Jean


    Thora’s face contorted with anger, unable to tolerate Neera’s condescending demeanor any longer.


    She despised Neera’s airs of superiority, especially since she was working under her father. In her


    eyes, Neera had no right to act so haughty.


    “Neera, who do you think you are? What gives you the authority to dismiss me?” Thorashed out, her


    tone dripping with contempt as she coldly regarded Neera, a hint of domineering arrogance shing in


    her eyes.


    “The medication you’re currently developing was initiated by my father, and he’s the principal figure


    overseeing it. What are you so proud of?”


    Neera responded with a slight, scornful smile, the corners of her eyes lifting sharply.


    “You’re mistaken. It was Mr. Hanson who assigned this project to me.”


    She emphasized the word “assigned” pointedly.


    “If you have any objections, you can call him right now and ask him to stop my research. Let’s see if he


    agrees.”


    Thora’splexion changed once more, and she realized that she had no ground to stand on.


    Everyone knew that Neera was assisting in this project because her father had never been able to


    make it work.


    Neera continued, “Also, when you asked what right I have to dismiss you, you should know that this


    entire institute belongs to me. So, what qualifications do you think you have? I’m about to dismiss you


    right now, and I don’t even need to provide a reason. What’s there to be so furious about?”


    Neera had no desire to assert her dominance over others, but since Thora had pushed her to her limits,


    she saw no reason to hold back her authority.


    “Thora, yourpetence within the team is the lowest, and your unwillingness to improve is quite


    obvious. I’ve been tolerating you temporarily out of respect for Mr. Hanson. However, if you continue to


    hold the team back and be an obstacle, don’t me me for not giving you any face. In this


    research, it won’t make much difference with, or without you.”


    With her final words, Neera turned and walked away, a heavy sense of disappointment weighing on


    her.


    The entire team was left in stunned silence. They had never witnessed Neera react so strongly to


    anyone before. It was a shocking disy of authority.


    They had no idea Thora had pushed Neera to her limits.


    As Neera walked away, the team members exchanged bewildered nces. They had never seen


    Neerash out in front of anyone before, and it left them speechless.


    They couldn’t believe how big the situation had be.


    Neera shouldn’t be messed with.


    In this stunned silence, the team’s gaze shifted to Thora, their dissatisfaction with her actions was


    obvious. They had long been disgusted with her behavior.


    Destroying research data was uneptable for a professional researcher and a disgrace to the field.


    Thora’splexion turned livid as she struggled to control her emotions, angrily shouting, “What are


    you all staring at? Get back to work!”


    However, everyone ignored her. Instead, someone in the team let out a sarcastic “tch,” further fueling


    her anger.


    Thora’s face contorted with rage, and she felt like she could bleed from the fury boiling within her.


    Meanwhile, Neera returned home in a bad mood. Sensing her distress, the triplets quickly picked up on


    it and expressed their concern.


    “Mommy, what’s wrong? You don’t look happy. Did you fight with Uncle Jean?”


    “Did Uncle Jean do something to upset you? Tell us, and we’ll go talk to him!”


    Sammy and Penny bombarded her with questions, eager to support their mother.


    Just as Neera was about to respond, a familiar voice rang out from the entrance.


    “Since when did I bully her?”


    Jean swiftly entered the room, his tall figuremanding attention. Sammy and Penny, quick to react,


    ran over to him, holding his hand andining.


    “Uncle Jean, Mommy is in a bad mood. Did you do something to upset her? You should go andfort


    her. You’re a man, you can’t argue with Mommy!” they chattered.


    Jean’s eyes slightly narrowed as he looked at Neera. Her initial distress softened a bit in response to


    the kids’ antics. She smirked, caught somewhere between augh and a sigh.


    “You’re overthinking. He didn’t do anything to make me unhappy,” he reassured them.


    Neera confirmed his words, she looked at Jean with lingering traces of her frustration from earlier.


    “You’re


    back.”


    Jean took a few steps closer, settling beside her, and gently tilted her chin up with his slender fingers,


    not allowing her to evade his gaze. He studied her face intently for a moment until Neera felt a bit self-


    conscious and patted his hand away, mumbling softly, “What are you doing…”


    Jean cut right to the chase, asking directly, “Who made you upset? Tell me the truth.”


    Neera hesitated for a moment. She didn’t want to bring up the situation about Thora, so she kept her


    response


    vague.


    “It’s nothing. Just some work-rted issues. It’s not a big deal.” But Jean wasn’t easily convinced.


    “Tell me the truth,” he insisted.


    The triplets listened intently, their expressions mirroring their mother’s emotions. Neera eventually


    decided to share the details.


    “It’s Thora… she…”


    Once she finished, Jean’s eyes narrowed with understanding.


    “So it’s because of her…”


    Jean also told Neera about his encounter with Thora and how he drove her away without mercy.


    Neera immediately felt a bit relieved.


    “I told you! It’s no wonder she acted so strangely as soon as she arrived at the center, looking for faults


    everywhere. It turns out she had a grudge against you!”


    Bout she


    As she thought about Thora initiating a conversation with Jean, herplexion soured further.


    Neera knew Thora’s character all too well. The woman had a peculiar determination when it came to


    people, things, and objectives. She either imed them as her own or destroyed them if she couldn’t.


    In the past, Neera hadn’t taken her seriously and had paid her no mind. But now, Thora had set her


    sights on Jean, and that didn’t sit well with Neera at all.


    The thought of it made her extremely unhappy.Text ? owned by N?velDrama.Org.
