Chapter 327

Chapter 327 You Really Have A Death Wish The triplets‘ abrupt, tumultuous entrance into the private room disconcerted everyone present.

J The Garcias knew that Neera had given birth to triplets while she was in Essley, but they had never seen them before. They certainly had not expected Neera’s three children to be so utterly perfect and adorable!

The triplets‘ entry startled Neera considerably as well. In astonishment, she demanded, “Didn’t I tell you to wait for me at home? How did you get here? Who brought you?”

Her three wayward offspring chorused dutifully, “We asked Uncle Jean to bring us here, Mommy.”

By this time, Jean and lan were already at the door.

Neera looked up at once and immediately met Jean’s gaze. For whatever reason, she thought she caught a trace of tenderness in his eyes. Before she could make sure that she wasn’t imagining things, his expression was back to its usual distant, detached calm.

Had she been mistaken?

She was still puzzled over this as Jean came into the room and explained, “The triplets overheard you saying you were going to see the Garcias and were afraid they might try to mistreat you. From what I can see, their fears were justified. It’s a good thing I showed up.”

He sounded very calm and rational as he spoke. It moved Neera deeply nonetheless, touching some chord of tenderness buried within her.

“It’s a good thing I showed up…”

Neera did not usually get upset with her so–called family, but their constant spiteful targeting made her both uncomfortable and unhappy. Earlier, she had felt as if she were trapped in a living hell with no way of escape.

Now, though, Jean had come to her aid. Not only that, her three precious children were so worried and concerned for her that her heart warmed immediately.

The triplets hated seeing their mother being bullied and mistreated. They linked hands and stood in front of Neera protectively and fearlessly, glaring at the Garcias.

“We know you don’t like Mommy, but you know what? We don’t like you either! So let’s just go our separate ways from now on, and we’ll thank you not to come and bother our family again! Grandaunt will give her assets to whoever she pleases, and none of you have the right to interfere. Mommy doesn’t need to introduce that doctor to you and she certainly doesn’t need to hand over the family assets either! You’re not fit to have them anyhow! From now on, stay out of Mommy’s way!”

The triplets delivered this ultimatum in glacial tones; they almost seemed like miniature adults.

Roxanne was unable to restrain herself and burst out furiously, “This is adult business; how dare you interrupt, you little bastards?”

The words were no sooner out of her mouth than Neera turned to glare at her, cold rage flaring in her eyes. Her entire being radiated a terrifying ferocity. “Who the hell are you calling little bastards?”

Roxanne had never seen Neera like this before. The other’s sheer fury intimidated her, and she almost stopped breathing for a moment. Nonetheless, she rapidly recovered her composure. After all, she had the backing of the entire family; what was there to fear?

Roxanne’s enviousness at Jean’s extraordinary good looks made her even more malicious than usual.

“Grandpa! Grandma! Look, you see for yourself, don’t you? Neera’s so shameless and brazen, she’s no different from a slut on the streets! No wonder we refuse to acknowledge her as part of the family!”

She had barely finished speaking when a steely voice snapped, “lan!”

Jean’s expression had abruptly darkened; his eyes smoldered with a fury no one in the room had ever seen before.

lan had already been having a hard time restraining himself since earlier on; he responded instantly to Jean’s command. Striding forward, he seized Roxanne and yanked her forward. Without any regard for the fact that she was a woman, he aimed a savage kick at her knee.

Roxanne shrieked in pain and shock; before she could recover, lan had forced her to the ground in a kneeling position! “Who are you calling gigolos and bastards? You really have a death wish, don’t you?”

He snarled icily.
