I Won’t Leave Her
In the afternoon, Wrenn was astounded when she received news that Jean had fallen from the horse.
In a panic, she took Frederic and rushed to the Imperial Gardens.
As soon as she walked into the room and saw Jean. She bombarded him with questions, “How did you
fall? Is it bad? Where did you hurt yourself? Show me! Have you seen a doctor?”
Jean replied calmly, “The injury is on my back; it’s a minor injury. I’ve seen the doctor. It’s not serious.”
Even so, she still worried about him.
She summoned lan and questioned him for a while, before she was convinced.
Then she turned around and yelled at Jean, “Why on earth would you ride a horse? Don’t care about
your own health? Do you think you’ll be able to handle it?”
Jean maintained his composure and replied calmly, “I just wanted to do some light exercise.”
Frederic chimed in to support him.
“Light exercise is good. His health has improved quite a bit lately. He doesn’t need to keep staying on
the bed. Anyone could have fallen ill from lack of activity.”
Wrenn shot him a fierce glance and scolded, “Stop backing him up and spoiling him!”
Frederic moved his mouth but chose to remain silent in the end.
She turned to Jean again and snorted coldly.
“I bet I know who you went with. It was Neera, wasn’t it? You always get into trouble when you’re with
her. From now on, stay the hell away from her!”
Jean’s expression turned gloomy when his mother said this.
“I bet you have forgotten that my health improved because of her treatment. Are you saying I should
distance myself from her so that my health will deteriorate and I will die?”
Wrenn frowned ferociously and rebuked, “It’s one thing to receive treatment, but another for you to get
into an accident. Would you suffer this injury if it wasn’t because of her?”
Jean’s eyes brimmed with displeasure.
He reasoned, “It’s an accident; nobody could foresee this in advance. You can’t blame her for
everything because of your prejudice.
“Moreover, we are married. It’s perfectly normal for a couple to go out together. You and Dad do the
same; I don’t see anything wrong with that.”
His restoration rendered Wrenn speechless. She struggled to find the words to shoot back.
Indignant, she turned her heels and left the villa.
Back at her villa, Neera was busily preparing the medicine for Jean.
She received a call from Katy, “Neera, the Garcia Group’s representative just called. He told me that
they’d agreed to our price.”
Neera looked up from her work. This news surprised her.
“They agree so easily? Didn’t they try to raise the price?”
“Well, the negotiation wasn’t entirely smooth. At first, they refused to sell at our price; they even
suggested a selling price for 20% higher, but I turned them down.
“I wasn’t confident at the time. Besides us, several other companies had their eyes on this patent.
“For some reason, all of them suddenly backed out. Garcia Group couldn’t find suitable buyers; they
sensed that something was off and had to choose us.”
Neera was puzzled by her explanation.
She asked, “Could it happen because the news of Alfonso’s detention got out? These companies
backed out because they didn’t want any trouble?”
After she voiced out her deduction, she immediately doubted it herself.
“No, that doesn’t make sense. In theory, considering the chaos within the Garcia Group, when they’re
desperately in need of funds and the morale within the company is shaky, these businesses should
have seized this opportunity to bargain for a much lower price. Why would they pass on that?”
Katy was equally puzzled, but she wasn’t too worried about it.
“I haven’t heard any news about Alfonso being detained in the industry. Regardless of the reason, we
have achieved our goals, and that’s all that matters.”
She had a point.
Neera gave it more thought, but she couldn’t figure it out. So, she stopped troubling herself about this
and gladfully accepted this outcome.
She instructed, “Send someone over to finalize the contract. We should secure the patent as soon as
possible.”
Katy was efficient.
By evening, Neera had received the contract.
She took some time to carefully go through everything and confirmed there were no issues. She was
incredibly satisfied with this deal.
Simultaneously, the villa next door.
Jean listened to lan’s report.
“Ms. Garcia’s negotiation went smoothly. The Garcia Group signed a contract with Startales this
afternoon. The patent now belongs to Startales.”
Chapter 569 Get Jealous
Ten minutes later, Jean had showered, and he emerged from the restroom in a bathrobe.
Neera had been waiting for him in the bedroom. When she saw him, she pointed to the bed.
“Lie down. I’ll administer some medication to you. Please bear with me if I accidentally hurt you.”
Jean had a bad feeling about this.
He just shot her a long and meaningful glance.
All that was on Neera’s mind were his injuries; she wasn’t thinking about anything else.
Once he took off his bathrobe, he exposed a large area of bruises to the air.
Neera was upset with the sight.
She exercised extra caution when she tended to his wound.
Firstly, she gently applied the ointment to his injury.
After that, she massaged him with a special technique.
She urged, “Hang in there! This massage will help your bruise heal faster.”
Jean had buried his face in the pillow. He let out a muf fled grunt in response.
After she performed the massage, Jean took a moment to recover before getting dressed.
Neera locked her eyes on his face and attempted to read his expression.
She questioned, “Do you experience any discomfort?”
Sensing her concern, Jean looked up and reassured her, “Nothing much. Actually, I feel much better
now. Don’t worry about it; I’m not made of clay”
Noticing his calm demeanor, Neera didn’t say anything further.
Later that night, she gave some instructions before she went home.
However, she had difficulty sleeping that night.
She couldn’t put her mind to rest. The image of them falling off the horse and Jean’s painful
expression, which looked horrifyingly pale, kept flashing in her mind.
Neera was deeply worried about his injury. She couldn’t stop herself from worrying about Jean.
Fortunately, nobody knocked on her door during the night.
As anticipated, the next morning, Neera overslept.
She yawned as she went downstairs.
When Auntie Zuniga saw her, she asked worriedly, Didn’t you sleep well last night? You have dark
circles under your eyes.”
“A little
“A little bit,” Neera replied, rubbing her eyes, not exactly bothered by her questions.
“Have the kids gone to school?” she inquired, looking at the time.
“Yes, they saw that you were still asleep,” Auntie Zuniga said. “They did not want to bother you. After
they finished their breakfast, I sent them to school.”
The housekeeper came out with some clean dishes and said, “Give me a few minutes; I’ll warm up the
breakfast for you.”
Neera thought of something. She quickly stopped her.
“It’s alright. I’m not going to eat right now. I need to check on Jean’s condition!”
Following that, she dashed out of the villa.
Jean was eating his breakfast at the same time.
“Have you had breakfast?” he asked Neera when he saw her. “If not, please take a seat and join me.”
All Neera could think about was his well-being.
She probed, “How are you feeling? Did you sleep well last night? Do you have any pain?”
Jean was in a cheerful mood when he received her concern first thing in the morning.
He chuckled and jested, “I’m not delicate. Everything is good. I’m perfectly fine.”
After that, he fixed his gaze on her dark eye circles.
“And you didn’t sleep well, did you? Jean asked, squinting his eyes.
She was embarrassed to admit she worried about him. Therefore, Neera made an excuse, “Oh, yes. I
had a nightmare.”
A nightmare? The horse incident had terrified her greatly.
Jean gently pursed his lips and handed her some cereal.
“Dreams are not real. Have some of these.”
Neera sat across from him, and the two of them had breakfast together.
Neither of them said much during the meal.
The silence was broken when Richard entered with a package.
“Mr. Beauvort, you have a package,” the butler reported. “The sender insisted on you opening it
personally.”
Jean unwrapped the package without hesitation.
He was stunned when he saw the contents. The package contained some medications as well as a
note.
“Jean, I heard you got hurt. These medicines are quite efficient; give them a try. I’ll pay you a visit
soon.”
He was stunned when he saw the contents. The package contained some medications as well as a
note.
“Jean, I heard you got hurt. These medicines are quite efficient; give them a try. I’ll pay you a visit
soon.”
The signature on the note belonged to Kyra Marks.
When he saw the name, Jean instinctively looked at Neera.
Neera had noticed that glance too.
She averted her gaze with a blank expression. She took a spoonful of cereal and casually remarked,
“Ms. Marks seems to care a lot about you.”
“My mother probably told her about this,” Jean said, his expression changing subtly.
He then pushed the package aside and no longer gave them another glance.
“Remove them.”
His instruction escaped Neera’s attention. He said “remove them” instead of “keep them”.
She just ate quietly.
Surprisingly, the cereal that had previously tasted delicious now tasted bland.
“I’m full. I have some work to do and must leave right away. You should rest at home,” she said, not
wanting to stay any longer.
She left after saying her goodbyes.
On her way to work, Neera noticed that her emotions were strangely off. She couldn’t deny that her
mood had soured when she saw the medicine Kyra had sent Jean. But why?
This thought bothered her all day. It took her attention away from her work.
Katy was visiting her office for the third time. Finally, she had to ask, “Is there something bothering
you?”
Neera was taken aback and asked, “Why do you ask?”
Katy looked at her face and reasoned, “You don’t look too good.”
She finally realized how much she had let the issue affect her.
Neera pursed her lips and suppressed her emotion. She tried to push it aside and concentrated on her
work.
