The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1028 She Is the One For Him

Meanwhile, Jean was playing chess with Elmer.

Although they were playing chess, but it was clear that Elmer had ulterior motives. From the start of the game, he would occasionally fire a question or two to test Jean.

“Logically speaking, there wouldn’t have been any interactions, both in work and in life, between you and Neera before this. So, how did you two come to know each other?”

Jean casually placed a piece on the board and leisurely picked another one off the board, as he responded in a relaxed tone, “We met by chance, and I’m sure you’ve heard some rumors about my poor health. The first time we met, she helped me. Later, she happened to move next door, and one thing led to another, she became my attending physician. I guess you could say our affection grew over time.”

After hearing this, the old man grunted ambiguously. “You young people are always fond of such sweet talk.”

Jean chuckled lightly, “I know what you’re worried about, Granddad. You’re worried that I might not treat Neera well, and that she might end up like Ms. Park. But I can assure you here and now, that it won’t happen. I love her. She’s the only one for me in this lifetime, and that will never change!”

After hearing these words, Elmer was actually quite pleased. However, being as prideful and reserved as he was, he refused to show it.

“Why does this conversation keep getting more and more cheesy?”

A slight frown creased his brow, as if he was somewhat displeased.

Then, with a swift change of tone, he sharply questioned, “But even if you do love that girl, so what? Would your family be willing to acknowledge her? The Beauvort family has been a prestigious household for generations, wouldn’t they value lineage?”

Jean’s expression became solemn and serious when he heard that.

Can they accept being ridiculed by others? Moreover, have you ever thought about Neera? Perhaps she’s the one who’s gets badmouthed the worst by outsiders! Let me tell you, no matter who you are, if
