Chapter 1141

Chapter 1141 She Is My Wife Upon hearing those words, Neera felt an immense resistance in her heart.

She never expected things to become so complicated that just she couldn’t accept them.

Acknowledging my marriage with Avery… How can I possibly do such a thing against my own will? If I were to do this, wouldn’t I be unable to disentangle herself from him in the future?

Shane glanced at Avery, seeing through his ulterior motives. However, he chose not to expose him but advised instead, “Neera, perhaps you should take Mr. Cox’s advice.”

Robin, who also felt that the idea was feasible, agreed, “This is indeed a good solution, Ms. Garcia.

This way, we can ensure the safety of the Gordon family. It’s foolproof.”

However, Neera pursed her lips in silence.

Later on, Robin arranged for a room to be prepared for Neera to stay in and even assigned a housekeeper to take care of her.

Neera went to the courtyard and took the opportunity to call Chad, updating him on the situation there.

Chad didn’t expect this turn of events.

However, he didn’t want to put Neera in a difficult position, so he said, “If you’re not willing, just let this matter go. I’ll handle it when I get back.”

After a moment of hesitation, Neera refused.

“Forget it, Uncle Chad, you don’t need to make the trip back. Since the situation has come to this point, I’ll just have to deal with it. After all, I’ve assumed this position, and it wouldn’t be right to back down now. If I did, wouldn’t that just embarrass you?”

Moreover, Adriana and Chad were currently busy planning their wedding. She didn’t want to bother them with the matter and disrupt the wedding plans they’d finally settled on.

Even if she had bitten off more than she could chew, she had no choice but to steel herself and deal with it.

As for the alliance through marriage with Avery, she could only go along with it to stabilize the situation temporarily. I’ll explain everything to him afterward.

Meanwhile, Chad let out a sigh. “Neera, sorry for putting you through all this.”

Neera broke into a helpless smile. “Please don’t say that. It’s not that bad.”

She just felt nonplussed about it.

Even then, she couldn’t figure out how she had managed to get involved with those from Lordsworth Estate.

Although they had her back, they also brought her a lot of trouble.

After Tiago left, he immediately reported the situation to Jean.

“Everything has been arranged according to your instructions. Now, the Gordon family has acknowledged her position as the head of the household, and no one dares to oppose it anymore.”

On the other end of the line, Jean listened and was very satisfied, responding with an affirmative grunt.

11:04 Sat, 4 Nov “However, the situation is still one of concern.”

Ahead was a red light, Tiago stopped the car. His hand casually rested on the rolled-down window while his eyes slightly narrowed.

“I have my doubts about Mr. Robin from the Gordon family. He’s not one to take things lying down, and who knows what schemes he might be cooking up behind the scenes. I fear your sweetheart might face quite a bit of trouble ahead. Moreover, my appearance has linked her with Lordsworth Estate. How the Bartitsu Guild will view this, one can only guess. They might just storm over to demand an explanation from her.”

Jean, who had clearly taken into account these concerns, immediately issued orders.

“So, don’t rush back here. Stay there a few more days. If anyone from the Gordon family or the Bartitsu Guild dares to lay a finger on her, make sure you cripple them!”

“Are you sure you want to do this? You don’t care if everything falls apart?”

“Your question is redundant.”

“Alright then. Since you, the Lord of Phison, will shoulder the responsibility for anything that goes wrong, I naturally have no objections.”

Tiago continued driving as he let out a deep sigh.

“Tell me, what are you really planning? Aren’t you just benefiting the Bartitsu Guild for no reason? You know full well what they’re plotting, yet you’re deliberately delivering them what they want.”

A scoffing laugh echoed through, but Jean remained utterly unfazed.

“Of course, I understand perfectly what’s going on. She is my wife. If she becomes the district president, whose hands do you think the district she governs will fall into?”

Upon hearing those words, Tiago suddenly burst into laughter.

“So, this is your grand scheme, huh? Tsk-tsk. I’m impressed with how cunning your plan is. It’s truly worthy of the Lord of Phison.”

Jean wasn’t taken in by the flattery. He said indifferently, “Cut the brown-nosing. Keep an eye on her. If anything goes wrong, don’t bother coming back.”

Beep, beep, beep…

Tiago lightly pressed the tip of his tongue against his upper palate, speechless. Indeed, once a man gets a wife, he forgets his friends…

Before long, rumors about the Gordon family spread rapidly throughout Phison.

The Gordon family’s acknowledgment of the new head of the household had become a topic of great interest to the outside world.

However, the intriguing part was that no one seemed to be aware of the visit by a representative from Lordsworth Estate.
