Chapter 572 Debauchery
Jean had to attend to some matters at the office today, so he didn’t work from home.
He kept himself busy all morning. He started to feel sick in the afternoon. After taking care of the pressing. matters, he left for home.
lan was worried about him.
By evening, he went to the neighboring house and looked for Neera because he couldn’t contain his worry.
“Mr. Assistant, what brings you here?” asked the triplets.
Auntie Zuniga had just brought them home from school.
lan replied hesitantly, “Mr. Beauvort felt a little under the weather. He’s currently resting, but it’s nothing serious. I swing by to check if Ms. Garcia is home.”
Harvey shook his head. He asked worriedly, “Mommy has some matters to attend to at work. She’ll come home late. Is Uncle Jean alright?”
“Should we call Mommy for you?” Sammy asked agitatedly.
In response to the offer, lan said, “Please do.”
All three kids made an effort to get in touch with Neera, but none of them got a response.
lan was left with no option but to leave a message. He urged, “Please ask Ms. Garcia to come over when she returns.”
The triplets nodded.
Penny felt ill with worry. She couldn’t help but ask, “Can we see Uncle Jean?”
Harvey stopped her before lan could respond.
“Penny, he should get some rest. We’ll disturb him. Wait until he feels better, please.”

Penny sulked and mumbled, “Alright…”
When lan came back, he noticed that Jean was going down the stairs.

“Sir, if you need anything, just call for Mr. Richard or a se rvant,” he hurried up to him and said. “You don’t need to come down yourself.”
Looking at him, Jean scoffed, “I hurt my back, not my legs.”
Then he asked casually, “Did you just go out?”
“Yes, I went to see if Ms. Garcia was home,” lan said in response.
“Is she?” Jean asked after a brief pause.
“No, she had something to do,” lan shook his head. “She would arrive late at home. Please rest for now and bear with the pain.”
Jean creased his brows a little and responded, “I’m fine.”
He took some painkillers out of the medicine cabinet, consumed them, and then returned to his room.
Jean did not sleep as he lay in bed with his eyes closed. Instead, he patiently awaited Neera’s arrival.
He expected to see her, but she never appeared.
Instead, it was around 8:00 p.m. when Wrenn and Kyra both arrived.
When Jean turned to face the two that occupied the sofa, he seemed uninterested.
Wrenn was dissatisfied with the attitude of her son.
She scolded, “Kyra took some time out of her hectic schedule to visit you. What’s with the long face?”
Jean was about to respond when Kyra cut in to smooth things over. She grinned and said, “I don’t mind; it’s okay.”
She pretended to be kind as she turned to face Jean.
Her eyes were filled with worry as she asked, “Jean, how’s your injury? Does it still hurt? Have you given the medication I sent you a try?”
Jean remained distant and cold. He was unwell, and being around Kyra only made his mood worsen.
When Kyra got no response, she lost her composure.
“Jean, you seem upset,” she purposefully inquired as she lost her cool. “Did something happen between you and Ms. Garcia?”
Jean raised his eyes, but he didn’t take the bait. He replied neutrally, “No, we’re fine.”
Kyra continued playing the part.
She asked, “Really? I thought…Maybe there is a fight between you two. I also think there is a misunderstanding. How could Ms. Garcia be with another man?”
With a deliberate pause, she pretended to have a slip of the tongue.
Wrenn caught on, and she asked, “With another man? Kyra, did you keep something from me?”
Immediately making assumptions, she questioned, “Tell me, did she do something again?”
Kyra had accomplished her goal. She pretended to be hesitant about revealing it.
