Chapter 584 I Will Protect My Wife

Neera was startled and hurriedly placed her hand on his shoulder, “What’s wrong?”

Jean looked at her slyly, “Since we are in a relationship now…”

Neera didn’t understand what Jean was implying. “So?”

Jean’s gaze landed on her rosy lips and he pulled Neera toward him.

He lowered his voice. “So…it’s time to do something that lovers do.”

Jean kissed Neera.

Neera was stunned and she kissed him back clumsily.

Jean deepened their kiss,

However, it didn’t last long.

Jean pulled away. “Go home. Good night.”

Neera was on cloud nine and her cheeks were burning as she walked home.

She remembered that they kissed accidentally before but it felt different this time.

Her heart was beating so fast that it almost popped out and she felt satisfied at the same time.

I will have a good sleep tonight.

The next morning, the triplets gathered around Neera when she went downstairs.

“Mommy, Mr. Butler told us to go next door to have breakfast with Daddy!”

“Daddy specially ordered soufflés for us!”

“Mommy, let’s go!”

Before Neera could react, she was pushed out of the house by the triplets.

They looked around for Jean as soon as they reached next door.

“Uncle Jean, we’re here!”

When they saw him, they rushed toward him.

“Good morning, Uncle Jean! It’s a happy day!”

Jean pinched their cheeks.

“Come on, get ready for breakfast.”

Jean greeted Neera too. “Morning.”

Neera blushed because as soon as she saw him, she remembered their kiss.

“Morning.” She greeted him softly.

During the meal, Jean offered, “Come over for breakfast every day. I’ll ask someone to make anything you want to eat.”

The triplets’ eyes brightened. “Sure! Sure! Sure!”

“Uncle Jean is the best!”

“I’m too happy to be able to see Uncle Jean in the morning every day!”

The triplets agreed before Neera could say anything. Since we’re in a relationship now, there’s nothing wrong with it I guess…

After breakfast, Jean walked them out and went to his office. Ian followed him.

“Sir, I’ve followed your instructions and arranged the cooperation with the Marks Group. The projects that hadn’t begun yet had been called off. Mr. Joseph took over those that were ongoing.”

“Got it. Prepare for a C-level meeting.”

At 10 AM, after the departments had reported on their work, Karl questioned Jean.

‘I heard that you have new arrangements for the projects with Marks Group. You cut off and handed over the projects. Why did you do that? Do you know how much we have to compensate for breaching the contract? You’re not only damaging the company’s interests but also the company’s reputation! The company has already invested a lot of effort in these projects. It’s a waste of the employees’ dedication!

You have to give a reasonable explanation for your actions!”

The atmosphere in the conference room was tense. No one talked.

“I have my reasons for doing that. The company doesn’t suffer any loss at all. The reason for cutting the cooperation with the Marks Group is because I’ve found a better partner. I believe choosing the best company for cooperation maximizes the interests of Beauvort Group. My assistant will send the proposal to everyone later,” Jean said calmly.

“Any more questions?”

Karl kept quiet.

“Dismiss.”

Joseph followed Jean to his office.

As soon as he sat down, he asked bluntly, “Jean, what’s going on? Did the Marks family offend you?”

Jean did not hide the reason from Joseph as they had a good relationship.

“Not really. I don’t want them to fantasize about something else…”

“You’re really protective of Neera, huh?” Joseph knew what he was talking about.

“Of course, I have to protect my wife.”

“I thought that you wouldn’t like her since Mom and Dad forced you guys to get married in the first place. It seems like I was wrong.”
