Chapter 1076 Listen To You After so many days, when Neera heard his voice again, it felt like a blast from a distant past.
Neeraâs eyelashes fluttered, and her heart was in utter chaos. She was unable to think clearly, unsure of how to face him.
She dared not lift her gaze, fearing that the sight of his eyes would cause her emotions to spill out.
However, she was still worried about his health. Her lips moved slightly as if she wanted to say something.
For a moment, she remained silent, not uttering a single word. With a heavy heart, she abruptly ended the video call.
Upon seeing the darkened screen of his phone, Jean lowered his head, and the look in his eyes dimmed. A hint of disappointment settled in his heart. She still refuses to talk to meâ¦
Seeing him in that state, Isabella and lan couldnât help but sigh deeply.
âDonât be disheartened. She still cares about you. When she heard you were ill, she was the most worried. Even after I finished giving you the injection, she wasnât reassured. Sheâs been watching over you for an hour now. I guess she hung up the phone because she was momentarily flustered.â Isabella couldnât bear it, so she gave him a few words of advice.
Jean understood and nodded slightly.
âHow are you feeling now? Are you still uncomfortable?â
âIâm feeling much better now.â Jean sat up, stretching his muscles a bit, and felt considerably more relaxed.
Isabella finally breathed a sigh of relief. âThatâs good. It seems Neeraâs method worked after all. Iâm glad youâre okay. Otherwise, she would definitely be worried.â
Jean lightly touched the corner of his lips, softly expressing his gratitude. âThank you for your efforts this time.â
âItâs all right, no need to be so formal.â Isabella waved her hand. âSince youâre fine, you should get some rest early.â
âAll right, itâs getting late. Iâll have my driver take you home.â
After some thought, Isabella said, âI think Iâll stay next door, in Neeraâs room. Given your situation, someone can call for me if anything unexpected happens in the middle of the night. Iâll be able to help.â
Jean fell silent for a moment, then nodded and said, âAll right, thank you very much.â
âAs Iâve said, no need for formalities. Iâll head over to the next room to rest now.â
After Isabella left, lan stepped forward and asked, âMr. Beauvort, would you like me to assist you upstairs to rest?â
Jean didnât respond. He leaned against the couch, pondered for a moment, then picked up his own phone and began to send messages to Neera. âDonât worry, Iâm fine. Iâll be back on my feet in no time.â
After sending the message, he waited for two minutes. Seeing no response, he couldnât help but continue: / really miss you, and I want to see you, even if itâs just a glimpse. However, thereâs something going on at the company that needs my attention. I canât get away at the moment. Once Iâm done, Iâll find you. Is that okay?
Neera still didnât reply.
Jean didnât mind at all. He patiently continued to send more messages to her: Iâm not by your side, so you must take good care of yourself. Even when youâre helping others heal, donât overwork yourself.
Remember to eat on time and donât stay up too lateâ¦
Back in Essley, Neeraâs phone keeps ringing incessantly.
She felt mixed feelings as she read his caring messages.
Gradually, she felt a hint of sweetness amidst the bitterness.
She stared at those few messages, reading them over and over again. After a while, she could no longer hold back, and she replied: After the treatment, you know what to do without me telling you. If you need to take a dipping bath, take it. If you need to take medicine, take it.
Though the tone of her message was stiff, Jean still couldnât help but feel delighted upon reading it.
He grinned and typed: All right. Iâll listen to you.
Upon reading those words, Neera felt a pang of sorrow in her heart. In the past, he always loved to say thatâ¦
Shone, forcing herself not to think about it anymore or respond.
She took a deep breath and put down her Meanwhile, Jean waited for a moment. He didnât receive any more messages from her, but he wasnât disappointed either.
He felt that the pain in his body had mostly subsided. He obediently went upstairs to soak in a dipping bath. After taking his medicine, he went to sleep.
That night, he didnât have another episode.
The next day, he had regained quite a bit of energy.
After learning about it, Neera felt her mood improved.
Everyone at her home could tell it probably had something to do with Jean, even though they didnât know what happened.
Everyone tacitly agreed not to speak of it, leaving the matter for the couple to handle on their own.
As long as she was doing better, they could rest easy.
After being busy for nearly half a month, Neera was preparing for Adrianaâs birthday banquet.
During that period, Neera managed to find some time to treat Willard.
As the month was drawing to a close, the wug pest inside the old man no longer relied on flesh and blood and could finally be drawn out.
After discussing with Leila, Neera decided to deal with that matter tomorrow.
