Chapter 1054

Chapter 1054 He Is Now Unworthy Various hurtful comments kept coming one after another.

Neera browsed through them one by one, finding them glaringly harsh, far from feeling any relief.

The curses and malice she encountered made her heart race as she felt a mix of fear and deep sadness. Tears streamed down her face, wetting her pillow.

That night, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep at all.

Jean was going through a similar ordeal.

Both of their wounded hearts were thinking of the other, lost in their own melancholy.

The next morning, the whole family woke up early and went upstairs to knock on Neera’s door.

Seeing Neera’s red eyes, they felt extremely uncomfortable but didn’t dare to bring up the topic, fearing it would only sadden her further.

“Neera, if you’re awake, please get up and freshen up. Breakfast will be ready soon. Once you’re ready, come down to eat. After that, we’ll head to the airport.”

Neera nodded without saying much.

After coming downstairs, she noticed that Auntie Zuniga had prepared a table full of her favorite dishes, which warmed her heart slightly.

“Auntie Zuniga, thank you for preparing all of this. You must have woken up early. I appreciate your effort.”

Auntie Zuniga waved her hand, looking at her tired eyes with concern.

“It didn’t take me much effort. I’m already used to it. As long as you eat more, I’m happy.”

Neera managed a faint smile and remembered something. She said to Auntie Zuniga, “After we leave, I’ll need you to take care of the house. But you don’t have to come every day. Just come once a week to tidy up. Don’t worry, for I’ll pay you the usual salary. I appreciate your help during this time.”

“Oh, there’s no need to stand on formalities. Taking care of the house is nothing, as long as you trust me. You don’t need to pay me any extra as I haven’t done anything special.”

Neera squeezed her hand and said, “Taking care of the house isn’t that simple. Please don’t refuse me.

Besides, your children are still in school, and your husband hasn’t found work yet, right?”

Seeing her determination, Auntie Zuniga felt grateful and nodded repeatedly. “Sure. Ms. Garcia, you can count on me. I’ll take care of things here. If you need anything, just call me anytime.”

After the two agreed, Neera sat down to eat.

After settling that, Neera sat down to eat. During the meal, apart from Mariah occasionally talking to her, everyone else remained silent.

They could see how exhausted Neera was and didn’t want to burden her with conversation.

After breakfast, the driver and Zephyr helped with the luggage.

At that moment, Jean showed up.

Tue, 31 When Neera’s gaze landed on the familiar figure, her whole body trembled, and she instinctively looked away.

Jean had spent the entire night on the living room sofa, staying awake until morning. His shirt was wrinkled, and he looked physically and mentally drained.

Throughout the night, he had replayed the words Isabella had told him over and over again, unable to stop himself from imagining the kind of life Neera had led while abroad.

The more he thought about it, the more it tore at his heart.

He had asked her about those years in Essley before, but she had only mentioned the good parts, completely omitting the painful memories.

As Isabella had said, all the grievances and suffering were a result of him.

He wanted to punish himself severely for it.

Now, seeing the slender and fragile figure of the woman he loved, as well as her exhausted face, he wished he could rush forward and embrace her immediately.

Alas, he knew that he had no right at this moment.

Seeing him, Elmer scowled.

Adriana and Chad, influenced by their relationship with Neera, maintained a deliberately cold attitude and didn’t acknowledge him.

Even the three kids, though worried, didn’t dare to approach him.

Edward went over to ask, “Why are you here?”

Jean replied in a calm voice, “I heard that you’re leaving the country today, so I came to see you off.”

Saying that, he naturally took the initiative to pick up their suitcases and placed them in the car’s trunk.

Seeing this, lan quickly joined in.

After the luggage was placed in the car, Jean spoke again. “You all have a lot of people, so I’ll have lan drive you to the airport.”

Hearing this, everyone looked cautiously at Neera, uncertain about how she would react.

Neera pursed her lips and remained silent.

Finally, it was Adriana who nodded with a lukewarm attitude. “That’s thoughtful of you.”

Soon, all the luggage was stowed away, and the elderly couple were helped into the car.

Nadine and Jeremiah followed suit.

Adriana and Chad, their gazes wavering between Jean and Neera, said nothing and got into the car.

Finally, only Neera and the three kids were left.

Finally, only Neera and the three kids were left. The three little ones were incredibly reluctant but also hesitant to say goodbye to their father.

Finally, only Neera and the three kids were left. The three little ones were incredibly reluctant but also hesitant to say goodbye to their father.

Their cautious demeanor was heart-wrenching to watch.

Jean’s heart ached as well. He gently patted their little heads.

“Be good when you get back, and listen to Mommy.

The three children nodded obediently, although they didn’t want to be separated from their father. The situation didn’t leave them much choice.
