Chapter 1128 Belong Only To You Neera and her children expressed how much they missed each other. Then, the triplets seized the opportunity to give their mother earnest advice.
âMommy, you must be careful. You have a fiancé! Your engagement with Mr. Cox doesnât count!â
âRemember, you must absolutely keep your distance from Mr. Cox!â
âMommy, we really donât want Mr. Cox to become our stepfatherâ¦â
Neera couldnât help but laugh heartily, âAll right, All right. Do you think I donât know what Iâm doing? You kids shouldnât be worrying about this. Otherwise, your worries will weigh you down so much that you canât grow taller.â
âHuh? That wonât happen. Youâre talking nonsense, Mommy. Take it back!â
After going back and forth with them, Neera decided to call Chad again. âUncle Chad, how have you and my aunt been these past few days?â
On the phone, Chadâs voice was very kind. âWeâre fine. You donât need to worry about us. Instead, how are you adjusting over there?â
Neera leaned against the balcony railing, laughing as she said, âIâm doing quite well, actually. Mr. Cox took me around District Fourteen. This place is really hugeâ¦â
After a bit of small talk, she got down to business. âUncle Chad, Shane has already returned to the Gordon family to make arrangements. He said he would come to pick me up in a few days.â
âShane has told me.â Chad reassured, âJust set your mind at ease. Iâve made arrangements. You can go back without worry. Donât hesitate to fight back if anyone gives you a hard time there. Show your strength as needed. If anything happens, Iâll take responsibility.â
Upon hearing those words, Neera immediately felt at ease. âUncle Chad, thank you. With you as my strong support, I fear nothing.â
Chad was quite pleased, grinning from ear to ear. âIâm glad to hear that. Youâre not the type to admit fear.â
Adriana was also listening nearby. Seeing him hang up the phone, she voiced her concerns to him uneasily. âI still feel uneasy. Donât you think itâll be better if we go with her? If youâre there, your family members probably wonât be too reckless.â
Chad peeled an orange for her, soothing her with a smile. âYou donât need to worry. I believe Neeraâs in good hands. Despite her young age, sheâs reliable. You can tell from how she handles her matters that sheâs a steady one. Besides, she may encounter such situations in the future. Giving her a chance to handle things independently and gain some experience is better than her stumbling later on.â
Adriana sighed, unable to resist blaming him. âWhy insist on handing over the Gordon family to Neera, letting her take over? Why not give it to Shane? Even though heâs a man, heâs the most outstanding of the younger generation in the Gordon family. He can handle those matters more adeptly, and I donât think thereâll be much objection.â
âWhat youâve said, Iâve considered it all before. However, my elder brother and his wife died tragically.
All these years, Shane has been burdened with this unresolved grief. Iâve asked him about this before, and he has no interest in the position of the Gordon familyâs head. In his heart, revenge is his top priority.â
âBesides him, there are others in his generation, right? Surely, someone can be chosen from them as a successor?â
âThe younger generation of the Gordon family is spoiled now, spending their days in pleasure without much real ability. Who among them can bear significant responsibilities? If it werenât for the lack of options, I wouldnât have placed this heavy burden on Neeraâs shoulders, putting her under such immense pressure. However, I really have no other choiceâ¦â Chad sighed, finding himself somewhat at a loss for words when it came to that topic.
âRest assured, in the future, if Neera is unwilling to be the head of the family, she can choose her successor as long as they are suitable. I think it wouldnât be a bad idea to consider the triplets. Harvey and Sammy are quite impressive. These two lads are very much like Jean. They are definitely top-
notch talents in the future. Entrusting the Gordon family to them will be quite appropriate.â
Adriana chuckled, giving him a light shove. âYou sure have a knack for reaping the benefits of othersâ
work, always picking the ripest peaches, so to speak.â
Chad didnât deny it, leaning over to give her a kiss. âRegardless of what happens to the Gordon family, itâs all up to the younger generation now. As for me, I donât have the energy to interfere anymore. The rest of my life belongs only to you.â
Adrianaâs face suddenly turned red.
On the third day of Neeraâs arrival in Phison, news of the Gordon familyâs heir returning to the family spread like wildfire.
That time, the Gordon family was on the district election list. It was safe to say that the entire Phison was paying close attention.
Hence, one could only imagine the amount of attention the soon-to-be next family head was receiving!
