The Enigmatic Return novel Chapter 105

Neera almost lay on Jean’s chest and even kissed his chin!

They both fell silent and stunned. They could only feel each other’s warmth.

Neera could feel the refreshing scent of Jean.

Jean was also a little dazed. I had never been this close to any woman before! Her body was soft and fragrant; I felt intimacy.

At that moment, Ian came upstairs to report that Frederic and Wrenn had arrived. They intentionally came over to prevent Jean from escaping. But Ian never expected to witness this. What's going on? Isn’t it Mr. Beauvort who wanted to get her out? How come they're hugging each other now? Did Mr. Beauvort actually fall in love with her? What on earth is happening now?

Jean heard the commotion and asked calmly, "What's the matter?"

Ian lowered his head and said, "Mr. Beauvort, Mr. Frederic, and Madam Wrenn have arrived."

Jean wasn’t expecting this, but he knew their intention. He said calmly, "Got it, close the door, and leave."

Ian was curious, but he did not dare ask anything.

After closing the door, Jean said, "How long do you plan to stay in my embrace?"

Neera replied, "I didn't do it on purpose. Are you alright?"

Jean stood up and said, "I'm fine."

Neera sighed and said, "Why did you close the door?"

"Frederic came to check on me personally, so I can't disappoint him. We can't leave tonight; we have to put on a show."

"Put on a show?"

Jean nodded and said, "Yes, let's spend the night in my room."

"Are you joking? We'll be alone together in the same room, this..."

Jean calmly said, "Why are you panicking? I won't do anything to you."

Neera fell silent as Jean’s words made sense. No one will be interested in my face now. We even came to the agreement that I do not need to fulfill any of my wife's duties; everything should be fine.

Frederic and Wrenn asked, "Are they really in the room together? Jean hasn’t thrown her out?"

Richard nodded and said, "Yes. You may take a look yourself."

Frederic and Wrenn looked at each other with doubt. They did not believe Jean would obediently stay in the room.

Ian came down just in time. He said, "Mr. Frederic, you better not go up now."

Frederic asked, "Why?"

Ian replied, "I saw they were hugging each other in the room. Mr. Beauvort even instructed me to close the door."

Frederic was shocked and said, "You're not lying, right? Did he tell you to fool me?"

Ian shook his head and said, "Mr. Frederic, I am telling the truth. I couldn’t believe my own eyes either!"

Mr. Frederic burst into laughter. It seemed that Jean could accept the bride after all.

Wrenn smiled and said, "You can rest assured now. Jean knows what to do."

Frederic nodded. However, he was cautious. "Jean could have pretended to put on a show for me. Tonight, I’ll stay here. Let’s find out if they are really..."
