Chapter 1479

Neera had anticipated Nigel and Maggie to be shameless, but she never imagined they could stoop this low.

The next day, Jean received a call from Mr. Jenkins, which was somewhat unexpected.

“What happened at home, Mr. Jenkins?”

Under normal circumstances, Mr. Jenkins would not have directly called Jean.

So, Jean’s first reaction was to ask if something happened to the Beauvort family.

Beside him, Neera was lazily lying on his legs, reading a book.

Upon hearing this, she tossed her book aside, looking at him with a puzzled expression, waiting for him to continue.

Mr. Jenkins’s tone was somewhat serious as he said respectfully, “There’s trouble at home, Mr. Beauvort. Could you and Mrs. Beauvort possibly return for a while?”

Jean was even more surprised, “What exactly happened?”

Mr. Jenkins was clearly hesitant, pausing for a moment before he said, “The adoptive parents of Mrs. Beauvort have come to us, claiming they have nowhere else to go. They want the Beauvort family to take them in, and from what they’re implying, they also want to ask your parents for some money.”

Upon hearing this, Jean’s eyebrows furrowed deeply.

He paused for a moment, then asked, “What about now? What’s the current situation?”

Mr. Jenkins sighed. “Normally, in such situations, Mr. Frederic and Madam would simply kick the person out. I don’t know what Madam was thinking, but she actually let them stay. She arranged for them to stay in the guest room, saying that she would wait for you and Mrs. Beauvort to return before making a decision.”

“I see,” Jean responded in a deep voice, indicating that he understood what was going on. He then hung up the phone without saying if he would return or not.

Neera saw his face darken slightly. She sat up and tugged at his sleeve as she asked, “What’s wrong?”

After a moment of hesitation, Jean told her the truth.

After hearing it all, Neera’s face instantly turned ashen, clearly showing her anger.
