Chapter 1378
Previously, due to Frederic’s surgery, Jean couldn’t focus on thepany, leaving everything to
Joseph.
Now that Frederic’s condition had improved, he didn’t want his children to constantly revolve around
him. He urged Jean to go back and rest.
“Don’t linger here with me. You can’t overwork yourself like this. Go back and rest,” Frederic advised.
Wrenn shared the same sentiment. “Yes. Neera has been busy these days and has lost weight. If you
stay, she won’t feelfortable going home. Take her back and rest. Since you came back to the
country, the two of you haven’t rxed. Everyone is at ease now, and there’s nothing to worry about.”
Jean didn’t insist on staying and readily reduced his time spent in the hospital. However, instead of
going home to rest, he went to hold the fort at thepany.
As for Neera, she wasn’t idle either.
It had been a long time since she returned to thepany. Now that she had the time, she could
properly manage thepany’s operations.
Startales had been doing exceptionally well recently and was swamped with orders, and overall, it was
thriving and prospering.
When Levi entered with a cup of coffee, Neera was reviewing thetest research data.
“Come on, Neera, take a break. You’ve been at it all afternoon,” Levi suggested.
Neera took the cup from him and teased, “Mr. Wilkes, you’re getting more down-to-earth. You’re even
handling small tasks like serving coffee yourself now.”
Levi chuckled. “It’s because you’re too focused. Your assistant doesn’t dare to disturb you but is afraid
you won’t take a break, so she got me to persuade you. I’m not criticizing you, but why do you always
go all out the moment you work?”
Putting aside the documents, Neera took a few sips of the coffee, savoring its rich vor.
“It’s a habit, and besides, the research results for this new product seem promising. When do you n
tounch
it?”
Levi sat across from her, his hands folded as he pondered pensively.
“I haven’t decided yet. Let’s observe the market. Although our cosmeceutical brand is doing well, the
demand for medicated cosmeceutical products is still rtively lowpared to non-medicated
cosmeceutical products. So, I’m thinking this new product could have dual functions-one for sensitive
skin and one for other types of skin. It doesn’t have to be limited to medicated cosmeceutical products,
aiming to increase and enhance more potent effects.”
After some thought, Neera nodded in agreement.
“Limiting ourselves to medicated cosmeceutical products is indeed detrimental to our development and
can easily narrow our path. It’s possible to introduce new products with different themes. However,
there’s one thing we must insist on-we absolutely cannot abandon medicated cosmeceutical products.
It’s the foundation of our brand and our pir. As our core product, we must continue to innovate.”
“Okay, I understand.”

After discussing work for a while, Levi invited her, “How about having dinner together? We haven’t sat
down together and caught up as old ssmates in a long time.”

Neera made an apologetic expression. “Unfortunately, I have ns with my cousin tonight. If I cancel,
he’ll scold me.”
“Cousin?” Levi was taken aback. “You’ve never mentioned this before.”
Neera raised an eyebrow and shared the story about the Park family with him.
Hearing this, Levi was somewhat astonished.
“I’ve heard of the Park family. They’re a distinguished and cultured family. I never realized you had
such a deep connection with them.”
Neera chuckled. “I never expected to suddenly have so many rtives. It’s quite… overwhelming, in a
good way.”
Levi gracefully chuckled. “You’re great, so your family must cherish you. They will make up for what
they missed in the past. This is great, Neera. I’m genuinely happy for you.”
Seeing his sincerity, Neera blinked her eyes and said in a soft voice, “Thank you.”
Half an hourter, Neera arrived at the restaurant where she had nned to meet Edward.
The cousins enjoyed a pleasant dinner together.
During the meal, they even video-called Nadine.
Nadine was visibly delighted to see her niece. Even her voice sounded upbeat.
“Oh, Neera, have you eaten? What did you eat? Look at you, your face was already small, and now
you’ve gotten thinner. It’s smaller than the palm of my hand.”
Listening to her chattering concern, Neera felt warmth spread across her heart.
“Aunt Nadine, you’re really exaggerating.”
“How is it not? You don’t know how to take care of yourself. What is Jean doing? When I go back, I
must have a good talk with him.”
