The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

The dinner was exceptionally lively.

The triplets, finally able to openly call him ‘Daddy’ without the need for secrecy, were beyond excited.

Adriana looked amused. “Why is it that you guys are the happiest when it’s them who made up?”

Sammy’s cheeks were puffed out like a little hamster.

“Of course. Keeping secrets can be quite burdensome. Wanting to get closer, yet not daring to express too much, is really difficult to bear.”

Penny chuckled while eating. “Hehe, everything’s fine now. Our family will never be separated again!”

The triplets’ joyous response caused the whole family to burst into hearty laughter.

Jean and Neera exchanged glances, unable to suppress the smiles on their faces.

Shane, who also laughed, raised his glass to Jean.

Jean, we meet for the first time. Your reputation precedes you.”

Jean raised his eyebrows, glancing at Neera.

The latter gently smiled, her lips slightly pursed as she softly said, “Only a little bit.”

Once he got her approval, Jean poured himself a drink and clinked glasses with Shane.

“Shane, you’re being too formal. There’s no need for such formalities among family.”

Shane laughed heartily. “I never imagined that one day, the renowned CEO of Beauvort Group, would be part of my family. It seems my life is now complete, all thanks to my dear sister, Neera.”

He tilted his head back, downing his drink in one gulp, then started to playfully tease Jean.

“I never expected that you’re under the thumb of your wife. It seems like she has you wrapped around her little finger.”
