Grow Old With Him
Neera couldn’t contain her laughter.
“Oh, sweetie! Do you even realize what that means? You’re speaking without understanding what
you’re saying.”
Penny blinked her eyes, cleverly responding, “Of course I do! It means you promise to be with
someone for a lifetime and grow old together.”
Neera’s heart was overwhelmed with warmth when she heard the phrase ‘grow old together’.
She raised her eyes and inadvertently gazed at Jean.
As their eyes locked, the look in his eyes was unfathomable.
The two were visibly stunned.
They hastily looked away, as if being electrocuted.
The temperature rose, and her ears felt warm. A wave of emotions overcame her.
It felt as though something was about to burst forth as her heart pounded uncontrollably.
As she was lost in her thoughts, Jean averted his gaze back to her face.
He sharply noticed the rosy hue that colored her ears and cheeks.
A sudden desire to caress her face overcame him, but he held back, worried it might be inappropriate.
The room was thick with tension, filled with an amorous vibe that neither could pretend wasn’t there.
Neera was the first to break the silence. She cleared her throat and said softly, “Hmm, if there’s nothing
else, we should go home now.”
Jean simply nodded in agreement, murmuring, “Sure.”
After she left, his eyes lingered on the pastries that sat untouched on the table. His gaze was enigmatic
and
unreadable.
Meanwhile, the entire family was present when Adriana and Roxanne arrived at Garcia’s residence.
Confused, Adriana asked, “Why is everyone still awake at this hour? What are you doing here?
Alfonso had run out of patience after a long wait.
When she was home, he adjusted his expression a little and replied, “We need to talk.”
Adriana raised an eyebrow, already anticipating the topic of discussion.
As expected, Alfonso didn’t waste any time, stating, “We had watched the news. Startales has
sustained significant losses, and its reputation is now in jeopardy. A business with a promising future
has become such a mess thanks to Neera.
“Do you want to leave ANXIN Group in her hands? Just look at what she’s done to Startales! That
company has a bad standing; she has ruined the good impression of outsiders. If you let this continue,
ANXIN Group will meet the same fate!”
“That’s right!”
Susan deftly observed Adriana’s facial expression and chimed in, “Look at the criticism your business
is receiving. All of this could’ve been avoided if not for Neera’s poor leadership. She simply isn’t fit to
inherit and run your empire.”
“Humph!” Marnie, with a tone of frustration, added, “You need to know your limits! Startales was a great
company, and you gave it to her only to watch it fall apart! Your judgment clouds as you age.
“You know what? Merging with Gracia Group is the best chance for Startales recovery. Once Roxanne
and Fains get married, both groups will flourish!”
Adriana listened with a stoic expression.
Unable to resist, Roxanne joined in, saying, “Aunt Adriana, I understand your bond with Neera given
the years you spent abroad together. We have missed you over the years. We love you just as much
as she does.
“If she were truly capable, none of us would be voicing concerns. The evidence stands right before
your eyes. She’s not up to the task.”
She continued, “Neera was brought up in the countryside, lacking the necessary exposure and
capabilities. How is it that she can run a big company? Isn’t Startales a living example? Who knows
what will happen to ANXIN Group if she gains control of that company as well? You can’t do this; you
need to consider the bigger picture.
One after another, they expressed their opinion, blatantly undermining Neera’s abilities, to persuade
Adriana to change her mind.
Adriana listened quietly.
She asked with a sardonic smile, “Are you done?”
