Chapter 1147 Fearsome Reputation

As Jean listened to her mutterings, reminiscent of a little girl, the gloom in his heart was swept away.

His mood lightened, and he began to tease her, “If you don’t like me, who do you like, then?”

Neera hummed in thought, then seriously replied, “Harvey, Sammy, Penny, Aunt Adriana, Uncle Chad, Granddad, Granny…”

She meticulously mentioned each family member but refused to utter his name.

Just by hearing her voice, Jean could imagine her coquettish demeanor at this moment. He couldn’t help but chuckle lightly, his eyes and brows brimming with joy.

Neera grumbled, “What are you laughing at?”

Jean raised an eyebrow. “I’m happy.”

“What are you so happy about? I wasn’t even talking about you,” Neera said, somewhat perplexed.

“I’m glad you’re finally willing to talk to me, to act spoiled, to be a little temperamental. No matter what, it’s much better than when you were giving me the cold shoulder.”

His voice was deep and gentle, like the melodious sound of a cello, very pleasing to the ear.

Neera’s face flushed red as she was caught off guard. For a moment, she didn’t know what to say. Opting for silence, she simply pursed her lips and smiled.

After a while, Jean remembered something and said to her, “Asher has been arrested. I couldn’t come to see you recently because I was dealing with his case.”
