Chapter 815

Chapter 815 You Matter More Than Anything Neera had no idea about any of these. She thought she had successfully duped Jean.

She changed clothes and then headed to the kitchen to start making dinner.

Jean’s gaze followed her throughout. As he looked at her, he felt his heart encased in layers of warmth and helplessness.

I didn’t want her to get involved in these things if at all possible, but she couldn’t steer clear of this. I didn’t do enough nor am I good enough. I wasn’t strong enough to keep her safely under my wing.

The triplets finished their meal and then headed upstairs to work on their home or Neera went to study and dealt with pressing matters.

Ian took advantage of the opportunity to inform Jean about the situation.

“We weren’t able to locate him, but I have forwarded the damaged footage to TorrentCloud and requested his help in restoring it. Yes, exactly as you suspected. Asher Garraway arrives. He sent those men to kidnap Mrs. Beauvort.”

He showed Jean the restored video as he spoke.

Ian stopped the recording at the final scene, where Alfonso and Asher were leaving the hotel.

He gestured and said, “It’s him. He has a noticeable scar on his face.”

Jean fixed her gaze on the scarred man in the video. His gaze was cold and menacing.

“Find out where they went after they left the hotel. If I’m correct, they’ll be in Asher’s stronghold in Essley.”

“Cloud is here,” Ian said with a nod. “He’s working on it. Don’t worry, his tracking abilities are unparalleled. We’ll have some answers soon.”

Jean’s expression became solemn. He made a low grunting sound but said nothing.

Later, when he didn’t see Neera, he went to the study to look for her.

Neera was on the balcony, talking on the phone.

She was startled and cast a sidelong glance at him. There was a mixture of shock and delight in her eyes.

Instead of pushing him away, she simply leaned back into his arms and kept talking.

Ten minutes later, she said goodbye, looked over her shoulder, and smiled at him.

“What’s up?”

“Nothing much,” Jean said, rubbing her cheek. “I’m wondering when we’re going back to Kingsview?”

This question surprised her. Neera seemed momentarily stunned. There was some hesitancy in her eyes.

I have far too many bad memories of Kingsview. I prefer to stay in Essley if possible.

“Are you in a hurry to get back?” she wondered. “Is something wrong with your company?”

“No, “Jean said softly.

His dark eyes were filled with anticipation as he continued, “I just want to take you home as soon as possible. It makes me nervous that you haven’t officially recognized me as your man.”

Thunderstruck, she burst into laughter.

“Isn’t everything good between us now?” she teased.

After hearing the response, Jean felt helpless and thought quietly.

We’re fine now, but there’s danger lurking in the shadows! I didn’t want to leave you here. If you allow me, I can take you back to Kingsview right away. I would guard and protect you for the rest of your life.

He detected subtle resistance in her reaction and decided to respect her decision.

Jean changed his mind, saying, “OK, you’re right. It’s nice to be here. You don’t have to go back to Kingsview if you don’t want to. For as long as you like, I can be by your side. We’ll return whenever you’re ready to do so.

He detected subtle resistance in her reaction and decided to respect her decision.

Jean changed his mind, saying, “OK, you’re right. It’s nice to be here. You don’t have to go back to Kingsview if you don’t want to. For as long as you like, I can be by your side. We’ll return whenever you’re ready to do so.

Neera experienced a pleasant fuzziness in her chest. She knew this man was accommodating her and found it very sweet “Remember you said that,” She arched her eyes and beamed. “I will remember this.”

He took in her radiant grin. His heart’s melancholy vanished instantly; only sweetness remained.

Jean bent down and kissed her tenderly, saying softly, “Sure, I’ll always follow your wish no matter what happens. You are the only one that matters.”

Neera was over the moon. She leaned into his arms and smiled sweetly.
