Jealousy
After escorting Herbert out, Neera found her back drenched in cold sweat. Her gown clung to her
skin/causing some discomfort.
Avery showed his concern for her. “Are you alright? Were you frightened?”
Neera shook her head. “I was a little nervous, but it’s no big deal.”
What she cared about most now wasn’t that. After hesitating for a moment, she still couldn’t help but
ask.
“Why did you say that just now? Our engagement was a sham to begin with. How could there possibly
be an engagement ceremony…”
Avery’s gaze faltered slightly, a moment passed before he regained his composure and said, “Don’t
worry, what I said earlier was just a proposal, no specific time was mentioned. It can be postponed
indefinitely.”
Postponed indefinitely… That’s not the point. Shouldn’t the point be that this engagement was never
valid in the first place?
Neera was slightly troubled, for she was very bothered by his ambiguous response.
That said, he had just helped her out. If she were to argue with him now, it would seem as if she was
being ungrateful.
With those thoughts in mind, she found herself at a loss for words, choosing instead to temporarily
suppress her feelings.
Avery clearly didn’t want to delve deeper into the matter with her. He glanced at his wristwatch and
changed the topic.
“It’s getting late. You’ve had a long day and should get some rest. I’ll head home now.”
After speaking, he smiled faintly with a warm look in his eyes.
“Now that I’ve safely brought you to the Gordon residence, I can rest easy. You should feel at ease
living here. With Shane and Charles protecting you and the support of Mr. Robin, there’s nothing to
fear. If anything happens, no matter how late, you can always contact me. I’ll rush to your side
immediately.”
Neera was preoccupied with her own thoughts, barely paying attention to what he was saying
afterward. She gave him a cursory nod, bid him goodbye, and returned to her room.
That night, she was so worried that she couldn’t sleep.
For one, she had moved to a new place. The unfamiliarity of everything, coupled with an indescribable
eerie atmosphere, made her feel ill at ease.
Secondly, the impending unknowns she was about to face left her directionless and made her feel
anxious.
Another issue was her engagement to Avery. She clearly wanted to refuse, but the situation was
developing in a way that wasn’t what she intended.
Even though this was only the beginning, she already felt overwhelmed. She was unsure if she could
handle what
was to come.
Unfortunately, by the next morning, her worries had escalated to a much more serious level.

News of her engagement to Avery spread like wildfire in the Bartitsu Guild.
Soon, it became the talk of the town, and the entire Phison knew about it.
People were buzzing with excitement, paying close attention, and acting as if they were getting
engaged tomorrow.
In the distant District One, Jean, upon seeing the news, glowered so intensely that it felt like the calm
before a
storm.
lan and Cloud, along with a few others, were so frightened that they didn’t dare to breathe. They tried
their best to stay out of his sight, to the extent of wishing they could become invisible.
In the afternoon, Tiago managed to find some time to come back. Seeing Jean’s expression, he
couldn’t help but laugh.
“The Bartitsu Association has released this news. It’s clear they did it for us to know. When it comes to
the Gordon family and district president elections, they are determined to win.”
Regardless of whether it was intentional or unintentional, Jean was extremely upset.
She is clearly my fiancée but has now ended up becoming Avery’s fiancée! How can I not be upset
about this change
in status?
Tiago and he shared a deep bond. Despite him being Tiago’s superior, they were closer than brothers.
So, in that situation, Tiago was the only one who dared to tease Jean. He pinched his nose and started
to make fun of him.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, is that jealousy I smell in the air? It’s almost enough to fill the entire Lordsworth Estate!”
Jean gave him the side-eye, not denying anything. He said coldly, “I swear I’m going to make the
Bartitsu Guild pay
for this!”
After seeing the news, Neera was deeply troubled.
However, even if she wanted to clarify things, she couldn’t. She was forced to let the news spread
continuously.
She could only console herself in her heart. Just bear with it. After all, the engagement isn’t real. Once
the excitement dies down, I can clear things up.
At the same time, she felt a bit guilty, silently praying in her heart that Jean wouldn’t find out about what
was happening there.
Hmm, he probably has no involvement with Phison. He definitely won’t know!
After reassuring herself mentally for quite a while, she finally felt somewhat better.
Shane came over and asked her, “Have you taken your shower.
go downstairs for breakfast.”
Neera nodded in agreement and went to the dining room with him.
At the dinner table, Shane gave her an overview of the Gordon family.
Since she had taken up the position as head of the family, she had to understand everything, no matter
how Important they were.

She ended up spending the entire day listening until her head was spinning and she felt overwhelmed.
She wished she could just fall asleep.
In the evening, Avery came to see her. “Let’s go out for dinner.”
Having finally caught her breath, Neera leaned back on the couch, completely unwilling to move. In a
spiritless voice, she asked him, “Where are we going?”
Avery laughed. “Now that news of our marriage has spread, we should keep up appearances, right?
Come on, I’ve made reservations in a restaurant. The food there is delicious. I’ll take you to try it.”
