    Chapter 1114 Truly Quite Embarrassing


    Isabe sharply sensed something unusual from these words, her eyes narrowing. She then asked


    bluntly, “What’s going on? Why do you suddenly have another fiancé popping up around you?”


    Neera didn’t expect Isabe to so quickly guess it was her in that situation and hurriedly denied it.


    “W-What nonsense are you going on about? It’s not


    Me! This matter has nothing to do with me; it’s my friend.”


    After speaking, she corrected, “Moreover, the man who appeared isn’t her fiancé. They’re only


    engaged due to an agreement between their families, but nothing has been finalized.”


    Isabe knew Neera was feeling self-conscious, so she kindly went along with her.


    “All right, all right, this is your friend’s problem, right? Now tell me, what’s the deal with that man?”

    Neera could hear Isabe’s stifledughter, causing her face to turn somewhat red. She had no choice


    but to y dumb, however.


    “It’s like this. My friend is set to inherit the family business, and her family once agreed to a marriage


    agreement/ with this man’s family. The sessors of both families were supposed to be united in


    marriage. Now, she and this man are each the sessors of their own families, so ording to the


    agreement, they are technically engaged. However, nothing is confirmed yet, so it doesn’t really


    count…”


    “So that’s how it is.” Understanding dawned on Isabe, who had grasped the crux of the issue.


    “Is your friend still mad at her boyfriend? If she is, this could be a perfect opportunity to teach him a


    lesson.”


    Neera clutched the quilt, feeling conflicted as she said, “Actually, it’s not about whether I-she’s angry or


    not, it’s just… my friend is unsure if her boyfriend trusts her.”


    “I see.” Isabe analyzed, “Given your situation, he was alreadycking confidence in your rtionship


    because you ignored him. Your recent actions might make him think that you’re looking for someone


    else. The situation is unique now; it’s no longer about trust. Anyone would feel upset and tend to


    overthink in this sort of situation.”


    Upon hearing this, Neera became even more uncertain.


    She shook her head slightly, finallying to ho


    isn’t me…”


    senses. Embarrassed, she defended herself, “I’ve already said it


    With a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, Isabe answered in a tone that carried a hint of teasing, “Yeah,


    yeah, it’s not you. I was just saying it off the top of my head.”


    Neera was rendered speechless.


    After hanging up the phone, she hesitated for a long time. In the end, she couldn’t help herself and sent


    a message


    to Jean.


    However, she didn’t send it under her own name.


    She sent: Daddy, the fireworks weren’t actually that impressive. Mommy only went to keep Great-


    grannypany, so don’t overthink it, okay?


    This exnation made it seem like she was trying too hard to cover up the truth, which only made it


    seem even more suspicious.


    Neera felt her cheeks flush as she read the message. She never thought there woulde a day when


    she would have to pretend to be her children to clear up a misunderstanding.


    It was truly quite embarrassing.


    Back in Kingsview, Jean’s lips curled up into a smile when he saw that message, and he immediately


    responded.


    Jean: Is that so? But your mommy didn’t even think to exin it to me. Besides, she and that man are


    still engaged. Who knows, she might even have developed feelings for him…


    Upon seeing those words, Neera felt quite disappointed and, at the same time, a bit angry.


    What does he mean by I might have developed feelings for Avery? How could that happen?


    This is all just a misunderstanding, yet he’s already overthinking things to this extent?


    This guy… Does he reallyck confidence in himself like this?


    And what about his promise to pursue me, his vow not to let go?


    I didn’t expect him to give up so quickly!


    She was quite upset and took this opportunity to scold him.


    She replied: If Mommy really does like Mr. Cox, do you n to just give up? Didn’t you say before that


    you would keep Mommypany for a lifetime? That no matter what happens, you would never let her


    go?


    As she watched the message being sent, she felt both a pang of anxiety and a touch of


    embarrassment.


    I can’t believe how much acting like the kids feels like second nature now even though the first


    message felt a little strange.


    Upon seeing this, Jean lifted his eyebrows slightly and messaged: I don’t want to give up either, but


    your mommy hasn’t paid any attention to me. I’m not sure what to do now.


    Neera: Why are you being so silly? If she really didn’t want to have anything to do with you, she


    wouldn’t have allowed us to talk with you tonight. Isn’t this her silent approval for you to keep in touch


    with us? If you think about it more deeply, isn’t this her silent consent that you are still our father?


    Upon seeing this, Jean could no longer hide theughter in his eyes.


    He realized that this new way of chatting was quite interesting.


    Is this her way of encouraging me?


    At that moment, he replied earnestly: Thank you for your encouragement, darling. I will work hard and


    won’t give up
