Frederic’s attitude had improved significantly. “The past is in the past, and we

can’t change it. As long as you stay by Jean’s side and take good care of him

in the future, that’s all that matters.”

Neera nodded hastily, “Yes, I will.”

Frederic was satisfied and picked up his spoon. “Alright, let’s eat while it’s still

hot.”

During the meal, he made sure to serve Wrenn, trying to soothe her

emotions. “Come, eat more, and don’t be upset.”

After a moment of silence, Wrenn finally nodded and handed a pair of

bracelets to Neera. “This is a gift for the new bride. Since you’ve married into

the Beauvort family, you should behave appropriately from now on.”

Neera didn’t expect her to prepare such a valuable gift. The jade bracelets

were clearly of considerable worth. She hesitated for a moment before

glancing at Jean,

2/5 Jean cast a quick glance at the bracelets and spoke warmly, “Accept them,

This is Mom’s way of acknowledging your status; don’t let her kindness go to

waste.”

With genuine gratitude, Neera accepted the gift. “Thank you, Mom. I will

cherish them.”

The atmosphere eased, and finally, everyone started eating.

Neera picked up her chopsticks and breathed a sigh of relief.

Thank goodness, she managed to get through it…

The Beauvort family was indeed a group of formidable individuals, each with

their complexity.

Luckily, she wasn’t marrying into the family!

The dinner proceeded quietly, and Jean’s appetite remained excellent, even

better than before.

Joseph was surprised but more delighted. “Mom has tried everything to get

Jean to eat more in the past, but nothing seemed to work. Now, his appetite

has improved so much. It seems like Neera is taking good care of him.”

Jean nodded, “Yes, thanks to her.”

Karl stayed silent, but his eyes flashed with a hint of darkness.

For him, Jean’s improved health wasn’t something to be happy about.

Joseph was a kind and gentle man, not interested in fighting for the family

inheritance. But Karl was different; he believed he was just as capable as

Jean and didn’t want to be left in his shadow.

If Jean, who was already ill, could achieve so much, what would happen if he

made a full recovery?

Of course, he didn’t dare show any ambition in front of Frederic.

After dinner, Karl found an excuse to leave. He had no interest in staying

longer in Jean’s presence.

Jean, on the other hand, played two chess games with Frederic before finally

leaving with Neera to go back to Imperial Gardens.

On the way back, the rain started to fall gently, creating a soft rhythm on the

car windows…

Neera glanced at the raindrops before turning to Jean.

“How was I tonight? Did I do well?” she asked.

Jean praised her, “You were more than impressive.”

Then, his curiosity surfaced, and he asked the question that had been on his

mind, “But how did you find out about Uncle Clarence and Jonas? I don’t think

I ever mentioned those things to you.”

Neera didn’t hide anything and replied, “I did some research beforehand.

Your family members are all seasoned and cu nning, I knew they would be

formidable opponents, so I had to be well-prepared not to be at o

disadvantage,”

Jean’s narrow eyes squinted slightly, revealing a hint of contemplation

While it wasn’t surprising that she could find information about Jonge, the

fact that she knew about Uncle Clarence’s affair was a different matter. It

was a closely guarded family secret, never disclosed to the outside world,

and all information about it had been suppressed.

He wanted to ask her how she managed to uncover such confidential details,

but the words stuck in his throat.

In the end, he decided to let it go. There was no need to dig deeper into this

matter.
