    Chapter 881 You Don’t Stand A Chance Anymore


    Looking at the loving nces of the Hansons, Neera’s heart felt warm. Her eyes, bordered with


    mascara and eyeliner, looked even brighter after.


    “Speaking of him, I haven’t introduced him to you yet. Can you wait a while, Mr. and Mrs. Hanson? I’ll


    call him over now.”


    Obadiah and Marie nodded smilingly. “Sure, sure.”


    Two minutester, Neera got a hold of Jean and returned.


    “Mr. and Mrs. Hanson, let me introduce you to my boyfriend, Jean Beauvort.”


    “Jean, this is my mentor that I’ve always mentioned to you about, Mr. Obadiah Hanson, and his wife,


    Marie.”


    Jean was always warm and gentle when he was interacting with anyone rted to Neera.


    “Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Hanson.” He greeted them politely.


    Obadiah and Marie reciprocated with kind smiles, as they examined him with their eyes.


    From afar, they felt that this man was something extraordinary.


    But from up close, they could see that he was even more handsome and elegant.


    “What a handsome young man.‘


    Obadiah nodded in praise. “You and Neera make such a beautiful pairing. You look perfect together!”


    Marie also expressed her appraisal for the two, followed by a little bit of hesitation, as she said: “By the


    way, Jean, we owe you an apology on behalf of our daughter. That girl of ours had messed up and had


    done a lot of ridiculous things. We hope you don’t take it to heart.”


    Obadiah sighed again, and agreed apologetically.


    “Yes, Thora has made a big mistake. We really appreciate it that you’ve been such merciful people


    about it. We will definitely remember it. It’s our fault for not raising our daughter properly, to the point


    that she got involved with such a big disaster…”


    Jean had no intention of ming them at all. “It’s all in the past, you two don’t need to worry about it.


    Seeing how gracious and gentlemanly he was, Obadiah and Marie felt even more guilty, yet also


    relieved.


    “You are indeed a good and righteous man. We hope that you and Neera’s rtionship wille to


    fruition soon.”


    Hearing that, happiness filled up Jean’s eyes as he looked at Neera and said: “Of course it will.”


    Neera cheeks were flushed, as red as a cherry.


    Osbert, who was beside them, then chimed in. “You were so cool just now, Jean! You were so


    domineering when you were standing up for Neera!”


    He gave two thumbs up in admiration.

    Jean then responded calmly. “I just don’t want her to be looked down on and bullied. I don’t ever want


    my person to suffer any injustice.”


    Osbert nodded heavily. “What a man! I’d love to see who would still dare to bully Neera in this upper


    ss society!”


    As he said that, he suddenly smiled with a ttering look on his face. “Neera, you are now a big boss


    lady of the business world! If I ever lose my job in the future, I’m counting on you!”


    Obadiah then red at him and said: “What, you don’t want to work anymore? I’ll fire you now then,


    you can go and pack your bags and run to your senior now!”


    “Ah! Please don’t, Mr. Hanson! I’m just joking…” Osbert begged cheekily.


    Neera was amused. She no longer felt as bothered by the Gordons with what happened earlier. She


    felt much happier and lighter.


    The few of them continued chatting for a while.


    “Alright, you should go greet your other guests. We can still talk anytime after this. Don’t neglect your


    other esteemed guests!” Obadiah said as he let her go.


    “Okay, I’ll get the triplets to apany you.” Neera said with a smile.


    The triplets immediately and obediently approached them.


    “Grandmaster, we haven’t seen you in a very long time! Let’s chat with you, how about that?”


    “You look younger, grandmistress!”


    “Wow, you’ve gotten more handsome, grandmaster! Is this what they mean when they say a good


    sword remains always sharp? The longer you live, the younger you’re bing!”


    Obadiah and Marie were ted to hear the triplets coaxing them. “You three have gotten so much cuter


    too.” They said as they caressed their cheeks.


    Neera let them take care of the children without any worries. She then went to greet other guests with


    Jean.


    Among the crowd, Avery Cox was watching them from a distance. His eyes sank slightly. There was no


    telling what he was thinking about.


    Violet Avalon was beside him, having a go at a slice of cake. “You’re still looking at them? Your limelight


    had already been taken away tonight! Plus, I think that Neera and her boyfriend seem to be in a great


    rtionship. It looks like you don’t stand a chance anymore.”


    Avery narrowed his eyes.


    Frankly speaking, he didn’t think that themotion was at all serious just now. He even found it very


    amusing.


    But the thing that made him feel most threatened by is the way Neera treats Jean.


    It seems like she really liked him.


    However, Avery wasn’t someone that would give up that easily.


    Regardless, the marriage arrangement between him and Neera was still very much existent.


    Once he had his target, he wasn’t going to let them go just like that.


    As he was thinking this, he left Violet and started walking towards Neera.


    When she caught sight of him, she felt quite awkward and embarrassed.


    After all, she had just found out that Avery Cox is part of an arranged marriage agreement with the


    Gordons…Material ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Yet, she retained her polite appearance, and greeted him with a generous smile without dodging him.


    “Thank you for attending my birthday party tonight, Mr. Cox.”


    Avery raised an eyebrow and said with half a smile: “I thought that you would run away when you see


    me.”
