Chapter 791 How About a Kiss?
The next day. Neera woke up and noticed Jean was still sleeping beside her. She was puzzled and wondered if she might be sleepwalking. But when she noticed that the roomâs layout and decor were familiar, she quickly dismissed that idea. If it wasnât me, then maybe Jean was sleepwalking?
While Neera pondered, Jean opened his eyes.
Seeing her dazed expression, Jean asked. âWhat are you thinking about?â
Neera blinked and blurted out. Jean, do you have a habit of sleepwalking?â
Jean pretended to be troubled and teased her. âWell, maybe a bit, Can sleepwalking be cured?â
Taking it seriously, Neera sat up and asked, âHave you had this symptom before? How often do you sleepwalk? Have there been any incidents during your sleepwalking?â Neera quickly fired off several questions, brainstorming ways to help him.
It wasnât until she noticed the amusement in Jeanâs eyes that she realized she had been fooled.
You sneaky! How dare you trick me! Neera exclaimed and playfully hit Jean.
Jean seized her hand and pulled her closer. He said, âHow about a passionate kiss?
Neera pouted and said, âTrying to kiss me first thing in the morning after fooling me? Dream on!â
jean let out a laugh and was about to give Neera a kiss.
Neera raised her hand in a hurry, blocking her mouth. She said, âDonât. We havenât brushed our teeth yet.â
Jean paused and lightly bit Neeraâs hand.
Neera fell plent upon seeing Jeanâs action. Then she quickly snapped over, bit his lip, and ran off immediately.
Jean laughed for a moment from a distance before finally getting up.
In the morning. Neera headed out after breakfast as she had a client meeting.
Jean stayed home to care for some domestic matters and spend some time with the triplets.
Around ten oâclock, Ian returned.
Jean glanced at Ian and asked, âAny progress?â
Ian immediately reported, âWeâre still investigating. We alerted the Shadow Clan when we raided Johnâs place earlier. They had covered their tracks this time, and it will take more effort for us.â
Ian continued to say, âMr. Jean, should we bring Cloud in? Heâs the best at tracking.â
Jean decisively closed his laptop and said, âThereâs no need for that. Letâs find the Shadow Clanâs base and take some action. It wonât cost us any effort if we force them to reveal themselves. Thora isnât worth sacrificing our people for.â
Ian understood immediately and said, âSo, you mean we should reveal our identity?â This matter could be resolved quickly by showing the identity that the Shadow Clan dared not to provoke.
Jean nodded and said, âThatâs exactly what I mean.â I did not care about Thoraâs fate; I just did this to spare Neera the worry. She had been exhausted recently, and I didnât want her to waste her energy on such a thing.
Ian nodded and said, âUnderstood. Iâll get on it.â
After finishing her work at the company, Neera took a break at noon to visit the hospital and check on Marie. Since waking up, Marie has been visibly worn out. She had always been worried about Thora and could not even sleep well.
When Neera arrived, she could feel that Marie was much weaker than in the past.
When Marie saw Neera, she grabbed Neeraâs hand eagerly and asked, âHave you heard any news about Thora?â
