Despite Neera’s indifference to the outside world, the gossip and rumors never ceased.

As the inauguration ceremony for the elders of the Bartitsu Guild approached, various speculations emerged.

“The head of the Gordon family has struck gold by obtaining the ninth elder’s seat. This is something that was unimaginable in the past.”

“However, it doesn’t guarantee a smooth ascension to that position. It’s too early to tell what might happen.”

“Many families in the Bartitsu Guild are currently dissatisfied. Even the elders are unhappy with the head of the Gordon family.”

“This decision was made by the president himself. Do they really dare to challenge him?”

“It’s hard to say. If the opposition is strong enough, the guild’s higher-ups would have to consider public opinion. They can’t afford to offend the other elders just because of the Gordon family.”

“Exactly, even though the Gordon family has gained some prestige this time, they are still far behind the experienced elders. Just wait and see, there will be drama…”

After finishing his work and removing his disguise, Jean finally appeared at the Gordon family’s headquarters one evening.

At that moment, Neera was in the kitchen making pastries with the triplets, causing chaos.

When the servant came in to report Jean’s arrival, Neera thought she was hearing things.

“You said… who has arrived?”

The servant repeated, “There’s a man outside. He says his name is Jean, and he’s here to see you.”

Neera’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Before her mind could process the information, her body had already reacted by swiftly walking outside.

The triplets were also filled with excitement, their faces flushed red. They clapped their hands and hurriedly ran out with their short little legs.

Soon, all four of them saw the man standing outside the door.

There stood a tall figure with a handsome face, exquisite features, and deep-set eyes.

It’s really him.”
