The Enigmatic Return (Nancy’s And Roxanne )

Chapter 1463

She didn’t mean anything else by her words, but upon hearing them, the three little ones couldn’t help

but feel a bit nervous.

Penny pursed her lips, cautiously asking, “Mommy, don’t you want us to get along well with Grandma and Grandpa? If you don’t like it, we…”

Neera blinked and hastily replied, “Don’t overthink it, guys. I feel that this is quite nice.”

The little ones exchanged glances, then confirmed with her once more. “Really?”

Neera chuckled. “Yes, really. Why would I lie to you?”

Penny hummed in acknowledgment. “We thought you were still upset about the past, considering how much Grandma and Grandpa had hurt you…”

Neera teased them on purpose, “Oh, am I such a petty person in your eyes?”

The three little ones immediately denied in unison, “No, no, absolutely not! Mommy, you are so generous and beautiful, kind-hearted and gentle. How could we ever think that way? You must not slander us!”

Neera chuckled. “Wow, seems like you guys have really been learning all sorts of praise words lately.”

Scratching the back of his head, Sammy chuckled sheepishly. “No, not at all.”

Neera stood by the bed with a gentle expression, looking at the night scene outside. In a soft and gentle voice, she said, “Adult matters have nothing to do with you children. No matter what happened in the past, it’s all over now. Your grandparents are kind to you, so you need to behave and not cause trouble, understand?”

The little ones hummed in agreement, behaving so well it was almost unbelievable.

“Mommy, we know that. Grandpa and Grandma… They’ve changed a lot recently, especially Grandma.”

Naturally, Neera knew all this, but she didn’t say anything.

However, just as she was about to hang up the phone, Wrenn, who had entered the study to bring the children a fruit platter, saw them on the phone and quickly took over the call.

She gave the little ones a meaningful look, then walked out with the phone in hand.

She asked tentatively, her tone very gentle, “Neera,
