howâs your injury? Standing for such a prolonged period must have been painful.â
âItâs not a big deal,â Neera attempted to dismiss it, shaking her head. âIâm just a little tired. I really should head back.â

Soon, Isabella arranged for a driver to take Neera back home.

âKaty, are you free tonight? Could you pick up the triplets and take them out for dinner?â

Afterward, Jean was confused about what Neera was planning.
What is she up to?
How could she let someone else pick up the kids?
Upon returning to the Imperial Residence at 7 p.m., Jean noticed that the neighboring houseâs lights were dim and frowned.
He called Neera.
Neera, who was drowsy from waking up, took a moment to register the ringing before clumsily reaching for her phone in the darkness.
âWhere are you?â Jean asked with a deep voice.
Neera took a few seconds to realize Jean was on the line.
Her thoughts were sluggish and responded wearily. âIâm at home.â
Noticing the drowsiness in the voice, Jean grew even more puzzled. âBut you didnât turn on the lightsâ¦â
Neera replied truthfully as her mind was functioning at a slower pace. âIâm resting. I was out the whole day and I got a little tired.â
She shifted a position as she spoke. All of a sudden, a sharp pang shot through her lower back, causing her to draw in a deep breath.

The man walked in quickly, his eyes fixed on her, and sized her up carefully.
He got straight to the point and asked, âWhere did you get hurt? Let me see!â
Neera was sleepy, obviously tired, utterly different from his usual energetic appearance.
Her long black hair was hanging down and she was wearing pajamas, looking a little dainty.
Hearing Jeanâs question, her brain twitched, and without hesitation, she lifted her pajamas, revealing a small section of her slender waist.
