Chapter 829 Youâre The One Neera irritably touched her nose, feeling she was overly sensitive.
âItâs okay,â she said glumly. âEnjoy yourselves and have a good time.â
âWhere are you?â Jean asked, sensing something was wrong. âArenât you at work?â
Neera grunted and replied, âIâm home.â
Jean was surprised to find her home early. He creased his brow a little and said, âWait for us; weâll be right back.â
Neera wanted to say it wasnât necessary, but she swallowed her words and said, âOkay.â
Jean turned to face the triplets after hanging up the phone.
âYour mommy doesnât sound very happy,â he said. âLetâs go home and console her.â
The children nodded in agreement and followed him obediently.
Neera was having tea in the garden when they got back. Neera was having tea in On their way home the triplets stopped to get something ready. They approached her with a bouquet in hand.
âUncle Jean said youâre not happy, Mommy. Whatâs the matter? Did you get you get bullied?â
âMom, donât be sad, all right?â
âWe have prepared some flowers for the prettiest and gentlest mother in this world!â
After that, the triplets hugged her and stuffed the flowers into her arms.
Neera looked down at her adorable children. Her gloom had subsided significantly.
O She inhaled the fragrance of the flowers. The scent was invigorating. She rubbed the tripletsâ heads as she embraced them.
âIâm not upset,â she explained, âjust a little worried when I donât see you all.â
The triplets were naive and innocent. They believed her and breathed a sigh of relief.
Jean, on the other hand, saw through her lies and winked at the triplets.
The triplets understood that he needed some alone time with their mother.
They let go of Neera and went inside, leaving the adults alone.
Jean took a seat next to Neera. He took her hand in his and looked her in the cycs.
âWhat happened?â he inquired. âPlease tell me about it.â
Neera shook her head, explaining, âNothing, just tired.â
She lowered her gaze to the ground. Her eyes were blurry and unfocused.
Jean cupped her face in his hand. He rubbed her skin gently. âHas anyone ever told you bad at lying?â
he inquired. Youâre upset. Why donât you say so?â
When Neera met his intense stare, she was stumped.
1 that youâre âIsnât our relationship strong enough for you to be honest with me?â He continued gently. What happened? Could you please tell me?â
He was very gentle in his manner, his eyes, and his grip.
Neeraâs heart began to soften. She broke her silence and told him, âThis afternoon, when I was meeting a client at the coffee shop, I walked into your mother and Kyra.â
And this was something that Jean had not anticipated.
She bumped into my mother! But⦠What about Kyra? What brings her here, and why is she meeting with my mother?
Neera looked at the man and asked, âDid your mother fly all the way here for your marriage?â
Jean returned her gaze. He answered truthfully, âYes, she did.â
Neeraâs face went stone cold.
Jean began explaining before she had a chance to say anything.
âKyra has nothing to do with the reason for their visit. I have no idea what brought Kyra here, but I do know that my folks are here for us. Theyâve begun to accept you. I figured you were still bitter about their past behavior, so I prevented them from meeting with you.â
This was unexpected for Neera.
A touch of mockery instantly appeared on her face. She countered, âAre you sure? They were overjoyed when I announced the end of our marriage.â
Jean had predicted that she wouldnât believe it right away. Initially, yes, but now they think differently,â he sighed.
He took Neeraâs hand in his and fixed his loving gaze on her.
âOf course, I donât think youâll believe them right away. You had been mistreated by them in the past. I understand your reservations.
âIâve made it clear that no one else can be my wife except you and that my life is meaningless without you.
âIf they donât accept you, you and the kids will never have to interact with them again. We can stay here with the kids and live our own lives, separate from the Beauvorts. You donât have to worry about them.â
His speech was heartfelt and persuasive.
Neera was deeply moved.
Jean going to such lengths for her surprised her.
