The triplets were extremely reluctant to let go, each clinging tightly to Neera and refusing to release
their grip.
“Mommy, we will miss you. You must come back safe and sound, okay?”
“Daddy, you have to protect Mommy. You can’t let anything happen to her, not even the slightest
mishap. And of course, you too. We’ll be waiting for you at home, waiting for you to come back and
pick us up. Then we can all be happy together, never to be apart again.”
Penny was the most upset. She was so heartbroken that she cried. Her eyes were red-rimmed, and her
speech was choked with sobs.
“Mommy, Daddy, I don’t want to be away from you. We’ve finally reunited after so much difficulty. Why
do we have to part ways now?”
Neera felt her heartache. Holding Penny in her arms, she gently stroked her little face tenderly to
comfort her.
“It’s just for a short period of time. We’ll be reunited soon. You must believe in Daddy and me. We will
definitely return safely to see you.”
On that day, after countless heartfelt goodbyes, Neera finally managed to send the Park/family and the
triplets onto the plane.
The next day, Adriana and Chad also packed their bags and left.
Before leaving, Adriana held Neera tightly, not letting go for a long time.
“Don’t forget what I told you. If anything happens, contact us immediately. Both of us will take your
advice. If we come across anything fun or delicious while traveling, we’ll take pictures for you and even
bring some back for you to try. You must stay safe, do you hear me?”
At that moment, Adriana reminded Neera of the time when she was first taken abroad. Unfamiliar with
her surroundings, she would always hear her aunt reassure her in the same gentle and patient manner
every time they
went out.
Tears welled up in Neera’s eyes as she buried her face in Adriana’s shoulder, taking in her scent
deeply. Thát familiar smell was as comforting as a mother’s warmth.
“Aunt Adriana, I will. You must be happy too, okay? When I return, come to my wedding.”
Adriana laughed. “Alright, I will have to prepare a big gift for you!”
After a journey of two days and one night, Jean and Neera, along with Shane, returned to Phison.
After landing, they headed straight to the Gordon residence in District Ten.
Upon seeing their return, Robin welcomed them with a gentle smile.
Baxter’s expression, however, was far from pleasant. He had an air of disdain for everyone around him.
Chin raised, he neither greeted them nor spoke, simply sitting there.
Behind him, Troy and Ollie were the first ones to speak up.
“Well, look who decided to come back! I thought you were having so much fun out there that you’d
forgotten all about home. Casting aside such a huge family like the Gordons and running off, you guys
really have some nerve!*
10:54 Mon, 11 Deco.
Despite their mockery and sarcasm, Neera wasn’t bothered to respond.
She walked straight to the head of the family’s seat. She was just about to sit down when Baxter
stopped her.
“Wait a minute, you can’t take the seat of the head of the family!”
He blurted out these words unexpectedly. Neera raised an eyebrow, glancing at him sideways. With a
smirk, she asked him, “Why can’t I sit here? Could it be, Mr. Baxter, that after all this time apart, you’ve
forgotten who I am? No wonder you didn’t greet me just now. It seems you’ve developed amnesia. But
that’s okay, my specialty is medicine. I can cure you as long as that’s what you want.”
Baxter glared at her. “Stop being so glib. As the head of the family, you abandoned your family to return
to your country. What right do you have to be the head of the family? I tolerated it before because you
seemed to be dedicated. But now, if you want to take this position back, there’s no chance I’m going to
allow it!”
At that moment, Troy and Ollie also chimed in.
“That’s right. What do you think the Gordon residence is? A place where you can come and go as you
please? As the head of a family, you have not fulfilled your responsibilities and duties. Instead, you
abandoned the entire family to pursue your own whims and live your own life. You are simply not fit to
be the head of a family!”
Neera sniggered when she understood what was going on. Standing before everyone, she said
nonchalantly, “So, it seems all of you are staging a coup, aren’t you?”
After speaking, she turned her head to look at Robin, asking him, “In that case, Mr. Robin, What do you
think? Do you also agree with them, believing that I am not worthy of the position of family head? I
wasn’t aware that once one becomes the family head, others could still question it?”
Baxter sneered, “Why can’t I question you? If the head of the family is not fulfilling her duties, then
those below have the right to question, even the right to overthrow. Just look at the entire Gordon
family. There are many people more qualified and experienced than you. Anyone in this position would
bring more to the Gordon family than you ever could!”
“Is that so?” Neera replied calmly, without a trace of anger on her face.
She rebutted, “Now, I’m curious. When Bartitsu Guild was giving the Gordon family a hard time, where
was this bravado then? Why didn’t I see anyone more qualified or more experienced than me stepping
up to lead the Gordon family out of the crisis? Now, you’re acting all high and mighty instead. This is
nothing but a joke!”
“You-” Baxter was instantly filled with anger at her rebuttal.
At that moment, Robin suddenly spoke.
“Alright, we’re all family here. There’s no need for quarreling. Baxter, you’ve been quite temperamental
these past few days. You and your two sons have been behaving with impunity and throwing your
weight around the Gordon residence. I’ve turned a blind eye to it all. But now that the head of the family
is back, you should show her the respect she deserves. You’re still acting like the boss in front of her.
Are you really trying to stage a coup?”
Upon hearing these words, Neera understood his position, which brought a slight sense of calm to her
heart.
However, Baxter was furious. “What do you mean by coup? I am a member of the Gordon family.
Shouldn’t I be considering the future and development of our family? Adhering to those outdated rules
will only hinder our growth. If someone is in a position of power but fails to fulfill their duties, then they
should step down. Is there anything wrong with what I’m doing?”
“Exactly.” his words had barely faded when Neera chimed in, each word resounding with conviction.
“But if you say that I am neglecting my duties in this position, I completely disagree. Ever since I took
over as the head of the Gordon family, every action I’ve taken has been in the family’s best interest.
I’ve elevated the Gordon family from a third-rate family in Bartitsu Guild to a first-rate one. Moreover,
I’ve successfully secured our place among the board of elders.”
If it weren’t for the insatiable greed of Bartitsu Guild, coveting the power held by the Gordon family, the
conflict between the guild and the Gordon family wouldn’t have escalated to such a point. But even
under the pressure of the Guild, I didn’t let the Gordon family fall into decline or be overthrown. Instead,
I found a solution for the Gordon family and even plotted a course for a better future. Is this what you
call ‘not carrying out my duties’? I’m confused, Mr. Baxter, what exactly do you mean by that? Does it
mean plotting behind the scenes and scheming for the position of the family head?”
Her frankness caused Baxter’s face to turn red in anger and embarrassment. Brimming with rage, he
was a sight to behold.
“What are you insinuating!” Troy immediately stood up, voicing his indignation on behalf of his father.
